I just installed Linux on my comp. It’s dual booting with XP. When I try going on Linux I get this error code: BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3 – 3ubuntu3) built-in shell (ash) /bin/sh: can’t access tty: job control turned off (initramfs) _ I heard somewhere that you have to disable the modem in BIOS or something. Please help.

How to format portable harddisk?

Herbata Zielona

I have two hard drives. I’ve been running XP on the first (C:/) and Debian on the second(D:/). Today I tried to install openSUSE on the D:/ drive over Debian. During the format stage of the SUSE installation something went wrong, I had to restart the installation. The second time around, SUSE didn’t recognize the D:/ drive, only C:/. I booted into Windows and the D:/ drive isn’t under My Computer anymore. Here’s what I’ve tried to correct the problem: Used a program called HDD GURU Low Level Format Tool. It recognized the D:/ drive and formatted it, though it didn’t tell me what format or let me choose. Rebooted, XP still can’t find it, I tried the SUSE install, same thing. Booted from my XP disk, tried the recovery console >fixmbr, didn’t do anything. Booted my XP disk and pretended I was installing XP, it only gave me the choice to install to the first drive. I tried a floppy called Super GRUB Disk, it recognized the drive, but failed to mount it. Out of ideas. Please help

Het zegt dat de flits geïnstalleerdl is maar wanneer ik probeer om video’s op youtube te spelen, zegt het dat het manuscript van Java wordt uitgezet of krijgt de recentste flits palyer. Ik kon op video op mijn machine voordien letten Linux, maar toen mijn zuster het gebruikte, na dat kon ik geen flits bekijken.
