ostekake, you have 4 instances of if but only 3 of fi, so one if statement is not closed...
ostekake 2017-02-28 01:48:51
Legal, thanks, looking at it now. I updated but I cannot for the love of god find out where the last fi should be https://hastebin.com/vukecayugu.bash
ostekake 2017-02-28 01:49:15
(i should be 0, I know)
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 01:51:37
ostekake: the if on line 20 needs to be closed
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 01:52:04
also the one on line 18 is extra
ostekake 2017-02-28 01:52:26
thank you EriC^^!
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 01:55:10
ostekake: why are you mounting /dev/sda in line 28? seems like a typo?
ostekake 2017-02-28 01:55:25
that is correct!
ostekake 2017-02-28 01:55:34
I don't really know much, learning as I go
ostekake 2017-02-28 01:56:10
thank you for pointing it out :)
ostekake 2017-02-28 01:56:21
the script actually seems to work now though, I'm happy

Hi, does anyone know if its possible to generate a initramfs that uses cryptsetup with a detached header using update-initramfs?
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 01:59:11
ostekake: no problem
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 01:59:20
that's good
JFox762 2017-02-28 01:59:21
Hi guys
Luv1 2017-02-28 02:00:02
Hi, I am new to Linux based Operating systems. I would like to know more about coding, primarily OSD. Can somebody help me. I know C and C++.
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:00:07
So ummm Im thinking of getting a 2nd hard drive to install onto my desktop pc (Which is basically my gaming workhorse) and install Ubuntu onto that 2nd Drive...
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:00:27
this is just to experiment with
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:00:33
how big a drive would you recommend?
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:00:41
Im new to linux
PradipW 2017-02-28 02:00:52
Hello.
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 02:01:15
JFox762: anything over 20gb will do
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:01:15
Would I find myself filling up that 2nd drive by *A LOT*
Legal 2017-02-28 02:01:27
JFox762, 10TB, Helium seagate. But anything modern will do :)
aamutahti 2017-02-28 02:01:30
JFox762, linux doesn't take much space, maybe 20GB with the OS and a bunch of applcications. Just depends on how much space you want for media
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:01:50
well i plan to keep aall my games and media on my windows drive
k1l 2017-02-28 02:01:52
JFox762: its up to you. minimum would be like 10-15GB
aamutahti 2017-02-28 02:02:06
JFox762: you can access ntfs from linux
aamutahti 2017-02-28 02:02:22
i.e your windows drive
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:02:26
Oh ok... so would a 500 gb hd last me a while?
aamutahti 2017-02-28 02:02:35
yes absolutely
k1l 2017-02-28 02:02:56
JFox762: the ubuntu systen uses around 10gb. the rest is the stuff you store on the hdd.
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:03:03
when Im booted into linux...
brunch875 2017-02-28 02:03:10
JFox762: I am using a 120GB ssd where I install everything
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:03:12
i can't affect the files on the windows drive... right?
brunch875 2017-02-28 02:03:27
JFox762: you can access the windows drive and edit it as you please
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:03:46
hmm ... so if i screw something up in linux
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:03:50
i can screw up my windows drivE?
k1l 2017-02-28 02:03:54
JFox762: you can mount the windows partitions, yes.
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:04:06
brb... but feel free to answer...
brunch875 2017-02-28 02:04:47
JFox762: If you do something wild which breaks linux, it won't affect the windows partition, no
brunch875 2017-02-28 02:04:55
mostly
brunch875 2017-02-28 02:05:35
now then, you can always get in the windows partition and hit the delete key a couple of times while selecting folder
brunch875 2017-02-28 02:05:54
is that what you mean by screwup?
OlofL 2017-02-28 02:10:38
tatertots: maybe soon :) if ubuntu supports it, does also kubuntu then?
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 02:10:50
JFox762: if you run a command that uses root privileges you could screw it up big time
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 02:11:15
especially stuff related to disks and partitioning
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:12:18
so is there a way to set up my partition...
Condor_Peregrino 2017-02-28 02:12:20
Guys Im trying to format my encrypted internal HDD drive. I have already used the chown command to give me the attributes to doanything on the drive.The thing is I want to format it and doesnt let me
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:12:31
so that my Windows Drive HDD
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:12:41
and my Linux HDD... are completely separate
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:12:46
so that if I boot into linux Hdd
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:12:55
it can't access anything from the Windows HDD?
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 02:13:02
so just don't run random stuff, and always see which name is in the command
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:13:04
not even see the partition?
Condor_Peregrino 2017-02-28 02:13:06
all this started because I formatted my system from cero and now all the system is a little bit weird, small
Condor_Peregrino 2017-02-28 02:13:12
why is this?
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 02:13:14
like /dev/sda isn't the same as /dev/sda4
EriC^^ 2017-02-28 02:13:39
JFox762: yeah you can pass a parameter to the bootloader grub and it won't let linux see it at all
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:14:10
Ok...
tatertots 2017-02-28 02:14:24
OlofL: yes
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:15:04
my ultimate goal, eventually, is two have 4 drives on my PC... I eventually want to take my current 1TB HDD, and replace it with a 2TB SSHD for my Windows.... and just migrate everything over to it
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:15:16
then my 1 TB, I will format it, and turn it into a linux hdd
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:15:26
and then....
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:16:08
perhaps two drives of 1 TB each in a Raid 1 Config for stable storage of important documents, etc...
alkisg 2017-02-28 02:16:31
JFox762: you can also use virtualbox to setup and test ubuntu in a virtual machine inside windows, without getting a new hard drive
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:16:46
I tried virtualbox... but it was sluggish
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:16:54
Which is crazy because my system is pretty decent
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:17:03
i5 4690k
alkisg 2017-02-28 02:17:08
Did you give it 2 or 4 cores?
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:17:09
GTX 970
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:17:15
and I think I have 16gb
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:17:27
I have no idea
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:17:36
Im not on my desktop
alkisg 2017-02-28 02:17:42
The default is to be single core, that's one of the reasons it would be sluggish
alkisg 2017-02-28 02:17:58
The other would be "no client graphics drivers"
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:18:00
im on my C720 Chromebook running GalliumOS (a xubuntu distro)
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:18:37
Gallium OS is my first experience with Linux
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:19:04
I have to say I like it so far... but it is limited in strong part due to the fact that my chromebook has very limited specifications
akash_ 2017-02-28 02:29:41
Hello people, do anyone familiar with yum commands?
ikevin 2017-02-28 02:30:29
akash_, maybe yes, so why asking about yum on an ubuntu channel?
akash_ 2017-02-28 02:31:31
ikevin: I use ubuntu and thought this is the best channel to get knowledge with ubuntu related jobs :)
django_ 2017-02-28 02:31:37
how can you restore to original settings lol
akash_ 2017-02-28 02:35:46
ikevin: Have you used yum before?
ikevin 2017-02-28 02:36:45
yep, so not under ubuntu and not for advanced use
ikevin 2017-02-28 02:37:29
akash_, what problem you have with yum?
akash_ 2017-02-28 02:40:52
ikevin: Recently I installed yum, and when I use sudo yum install . It throws some error with https://www.irccloud.com/pastebin/HKfSorLl/
JFox762 2017-02-28 02:41:46
oops
ikevin 2017-02-28 02:42:06
akash_, and repo list give you a valid list of repo?
akash_ 2017-02-28 02:43:46
ikevin: No, when I follow yum repolist all, it shows zero
ikevin 2017-02-28 02:44:34
akash_, so, add some repo :p
