Linux newbie here…Why won’t my LiveCD recognize both of my hard drives?

Posted on January 20, 2012 by admin| 1 Comment

My WinXP hard drive recently crashed. I can still access it using my LinspireLive CD, but my slave drive doesn’t show up. My flash drive shows up as a dos disk, and my corrupted drive shows up as winxp, but my slave drive doesn’t show up at all. (I assume it would show up as a dos disk because there is no OS on it.) I tried booting up under Linspire Live without the flash drive plugged in, but the slave drive still did not show up. I would like to be able to move my important files from the corrupted drive to the slave drive. How can I get Linux to recognize my slave drive so that I can do this? (I’m relatively new to Linux so be gentle…LOL)

Where could I find an self-installing verison of Linux?

I don’t have any cds to burn a livecd, so is there any other way to install linux without a live cd?
Then how do I register online to get a CD from ubuntu.com or other sites?
Never mind, figured it out..

network problem with Fedora 7 – networking works on live cd but not after install?

Posted on November 15, 2011 by admin| 1 Comment

This is on a laptop with realtek wired network interface and intel pro 2000 wireless interface. Networking all works fine on the live cd. After the livecd has been installed the networking won’t work – can’t activate the wireless card, wired interface says it is activated but won’t work and the network manager icon does not show in the system tray. I’m a linux newbie, and after searching for a while I’m stumped. Any ideas?
Thanks
Thanks for your reply, I’ve tried your suggestions. Restarting the network wouldn’t work, but after disabling the network manager and rebooting at least the wired interface is now working. However how would I use the wireless interface with WPA if the network manager tray icon is not there to enter WPA keys?

Windows Password Hashes and Live CD Linux?

Posted on March 6, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

If the registry is blocked through windows, but you can boot from a livecd, how might you go about recovering the hashes out of the sam file? Are there any tools for linux? Can I do it manually if I mount the Hard drive? I mannually pulled the sam file, but don’t know what else to do. On my windows I have created rainbow tables ready to crack the passwords.
I would prefer not to reset passwords. I want to know the importance of Bios and if A livecd could pull hashes on one computer, giving access to all the computers admin. user.
