[Bug 291264] Re: [hardy-ibex upgrade] system is now unbootable

2008-10-31 Thread nodata
Solved. The installer has a bug.

I have a separate boot partition which the installer did not mount or
perhaps unmounted (it is in /etc/fstab)

Anyway:
* The new kernel was installed in the mountpoint directory.
* The initrd image was missing from the grub menu.lst
* The hd(0,0) line was wrong

Running grub-install did give an error, so I expect it also gave an
error on install which could have been caught.

[Bug 291264] [NEW] [hardy-ibex upgrade] system is now unbootable

2008-10-30 Thread nodata
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: linux-image

fter using the recommended (desktop gui) method to upgrade from 8.04 to
8.10 I now have an unbootable system.

The method I used is here:
 http://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading

After a reboot I see the message Error 17: cannot mount selected partition.
The boot entry is missing an initrd line. Adding it does not help.
Booting the old kernel does not help.
Changing hd(0,0) to hd(0,anything) does not help.

This is a system originally installed with the 8.04 desktop alternative cd to 
use disk encryption.
Disk encryption must be supported since no warning was given on the upgrade 
page, or (more importantly) in the system upgrade tool.

Well it seams to me that this is the main problem, that developers of Linux 
and other open source OSes. And We need _equivalents_ of _popular_ 
applications on a Ubuntu PC Does not seam to have solved the problem.

Well porting proprietary products to Linux would defeat the point of
Linux. I don't see your point.

what happens if i the program I want to use don't exist in the apt-library?
Than the Linux way is alot harder to understand.

Yep. It has to be in apt, or they can't install it.

My mother for an example does not know how to use Windows, but she
would chose Windows because of it's user friendly way of learning. It is
essayer to learn Windows she think.

She would chose what a technical person, or the shop recommends to her. Or what 
was available.
Windows being easier to learn is an opinion, an opinion I disagree with. 
Compare Windows, with its cacophony of menus, with Gnome.

Windows has a lot of strangeness. Start being used to shutdown the pc?
Marvellous.

Before we even can think about making, Ubuntu Linux mainstream we MUST get all 
well know programs that work on a Windows PC to work on a Ubuntu PC.
We need _equivalents_ of _popular_ applications on a Ubuntu PC, not 
_all_well-known_programs_.
And for most applications, there is.

But a regular user just want to click and install. A regular user don't want 
to open a Package manager or a terminal to install a program.
Well a user is going to have to open something to tell the computer that they 
want a particular piece of software on their computer. As long as that 
something is a piece of cake to use, the user will be happy. An install 
software icon, and a place to type is better than the Windows way:
Find vendor website, register for download, click download link in e-mail, run 
installer, ignore all the questions and keep clicking next, now reboot.
versus Linux: find package using apt, install using apt. An easy gui wrapper 
will improve this for users.

Windows is a easy thing to understand
It seems easier because people forget that they learnt Windows.
