[quote="xeno74"]Congratulations! That's great! Now, you can upgrade it to the latest version 16.04.5 . ;-) /quote] If you can tell me where to find it hand how to install it, I'll give it a try. Speaking of updates, when I opened Firefox in my current Ubuntu install, it said I needed to up...

@xeno74
Problem solved. After returning to the problem after a break, I discovered that I was making a typing error. I have Ubuntu installed of a hard-disk partition and it's working. Thanks for the patience and help.

I would recommend you to install a new hard disk in your X1000 and create a big Linux ext4 partition with a LABEL (MBR partition table) on it. LABEL = Name of the partition In my last post I described attempting to install ubuntu on a second hard disk as partition sdb3. All the partitions I've crea...

What do you think about to install a second hard disk? OK. I tried that. I discovered why GParted would not create a partition on a hard-disk for me. The default alignment in the partition window is Mi (or MiB ?) and trying to partition with that setting fails. I tried switching the alignment to &q...

Is /dev/sda10 empty? Could you please check it with the live DVD? When I install ubuntu on sda10, hundreds of files scroll by in the terminal. When I open sda10 after installing, it shows up as empty. Maybe it really is empty. I had to create a blank sda10 with AmigaOS because GParted would not cre...

On which partition on your hard disk did you install ubuntu MATE? Maybe /dev/sda10, /dev/sda11 .....????? I installed ubuntu on sda10 on my hard-disk and on a USB stick with a single partition (sdb1). Starting ubuntu from sda10 (hard disk partition) or sdb1 (USB stick) gets me the same results. If ...

Hi Xenic, Maybe you typed the incorrect partition device or you typed it in a wrong format in the installer. The correct format is: /dev/<your partition> For example: /dev/sdb2 Additionally, maybe you need to reformat your CF card. Cheers, Christian In the installer the USB stick is being formatted...

@xeno74 I added partition 10 from AmigaOS and was then able to format that partition in ubuntu. I also formatted a USB stick in ubuntu. I used the alternate install script to copy the ubuntu files to the hard-disk partition and to the USB stick. Even though the files scrolled by in the terminal like...

@xeno74 Thanks for the help. I think I have all the info I need but will need to rethink my install. The installer won't (or can't) create a partition on my main hard disk. I only had 8 partitions on my X5000 and the ubuntu partition was the 9th. Because of the CFE boot partition, my X1000 already h...

I tried the the alternate install script, formatted a USB stick and installed ubuntu. The install seems to have worked OK, so I may go ahead and install on my hard disk. However, I don't know where to get the kernal. I really appreciate your help but I have one more question: Where do I get the kern...
