hello

Necy 2017-03-02 18:49:27

sorry to confuse you

Bashing-om 2017-03-02 18:51:25

Necy: Re-biit and as soon as the firmware screen clears spam the escape key -> language screen, escape jeu to accept the default -> boot options screen -> F6 key -> boot parameters options ( space-bar to select, tab to OK, enter to accept ) .

Bashing-om 2017-03-02 18:51:41

reboot*

Aurorasaura 2017-03-02 19:02:56

is there a way to see a progress bar when using cp -rp?

Necy 2017-03-02 19:05:41

i can only get as far as the GRUB screen (with "Start kubuntu", "OME install.." ect.) and there is no f6 option

Bashing-om 2017-03-02 19:07:49

Necy: That is not the screen ya want . trt again from a reboot . there is but a 3 second window of opportunity to redirect to boot the boot options screen .

Necy 2017-03-02 19:08:41

is it the bios we want?

Bashing-om 2017-03-02 19:10:04

Necy: No, this is past bios ( EFI ) / as soon as the bios screen clears spam the escape key .

pagios 2017-03-02 19:23:48

mount /home/devtest/ /sbin/mount.davfs: /home/devtest is the home directory of user

Necy 2017-03-02 19:23:57

im at a screen, but it was via f2. "boot mode is set to: UEFI" ECT. is the the correct one?

pagios 2017-03-02 19:23:58

how can i bypass this

Necy 2017-03-02 19:24:04

its blue

pagios 2017-03-02 19:24:04

i am not root

Necy 2017-03-02 19:24:34

UEFI options screen

Bashing-om 2017-03-02 19:27:18

Necy: No. ya want to get past the UEFI booting . As to how I can not advise - every manufacturer does it different . You want to boot the installer in EFI mode . and get to the boot parameters screen by spamming the escape key .

Necy 2017-03-02 19:29:46

to even to run the cd i have to f12 and select CDROM1. do i do that and then spam esc?

Necy 2017-03-02 19:30:40

because that takes me to a grub menu :s

Necy 2017-03-02 19:30:48

"grub>"

jpugarte1 2017-03-02 19:33:53

sup guys, anyone here who can help me a little bit with resizing my partitions?

Necy 2017-03-02 19:34:00

maybe if i disable secureboot or change to legacy?

Necy 2017-03-02 19:34:26

idk

Bashing-om 2017-03-02 19:36:31

Necy: Each manufacturer does it different as there is no specification set . I Do not know what to tell you in your particular case . But the CD does not boot until after the firmware ( bios ) . As soon as that bios screen clears then spam the escape key to redirect the boot process to the boot parameters screen .

Bashing-om 2017-03-02 19:38:03

Necy: If you are dual booting You want to install in the same mode as that of Windows ( EFI !) .

Necy 2017-03-02 19:40:34

i have two options in the bottom corner when i boot, a boot options with f12 and boot settings f2

Bashing-om 2017-03-02 19:44:12

Necy: I know you are getting frustrated .. but I say again .. I can not know .

cfhowlett 2017-03-02 19:44:36

Necy, one of those is for a temporary boot setting, the other is for making "permanent" settings. either will work.
