Linux Question?

Posted on February 5, 2012 by admin| 4 Comments

Basicaly my question is if I boot Linux from a live cd (Ubuntu) could I download a file from bittorent onto my hardrive so i could access it from windows. If so tell me how. My laptop can’t use ethernet so I have to boot linux from a cd to use the internet. Please help. But if you could find me a drive so I could use ethernet connections that would be good too.
oh sorry I forgot to write model.lol. i have a dell 600m. Believe me I’ve tried but im not good when it come to downloading drivers.

Not to long ago i purchased an Acer 5610 laptop. it came with windows vista when i got it. i must have downloaded some sort of virus because it crashed on me a while back. ive tried to install windows numerous times ever since. first i tried xp, i used 3 or for different copies just to make sure i wasnt using one that wouldnt work. xp froze midway through installation ever single time, next i used a linux cd and booted into the “live cd”, this worked but im not an IT professional and i could figure every friggen thing out. what should i do now? please help im at the end of my rope with this pc!
sylver; hell no

to bill g; no, i dont have a copy

to gladiator; from boot
deleted partition, i now have a unpartitioned hd

db young; i dont want to buy vista, i already have a supposedly working copy of xp
to tj; i was using a distro called sabayon, it was the only one i found that had drivers for my wifi card built into the installation cd. i need windows for the compatibility

Linux Question ???

Posted on October 21, 2011 by admin| 3 Comments

When I try run linux live cd’s (Ubuntu and Xubuntu) my computer tells me it cannot find bin/sh, I used Infra recorder, also before the burning process begins it tells me that I have a DVD RW drive (which I do) and asks me if I want to write to DVD media, I reply no because I am burning to cd’s.

What is wrong and what should I do ?.

ok a simple linux(kubuntu) question?

Posted on June 9, 2011 by admin| 4 Comments

ok so its like this-ive got a test next week and the cd rom of my computer at school does not work so if this doesnt help im really screwed. so basically ive got a kubuntu live cd and a laptop and i want to know if i can make some minor modifications with the console module(rename folders, make new once etc) without installing that bullcrap on my laptop. 10x
ok im not going to install it. 2-nd option-can i make the same modifications on a usb memory drive, not on the cd.
