#26 Re: Installation » [SOLVED] Can't boot ASCII installed on usb flash disk » 2019-04-08 06:44:41

I could boot another ASCII installation from another, older USB stick using "non-booting" computer. I can't boot ASCII installed on newer USB 3.0 stick using "non-booting" computer (ASCII was installed using "non-booting" computer). So it seems problem is in USB 3.0 stick.

Try to find "power on USB at startup" or "USB powersaving" option in CMOS setup or something like that.

I'm sorry there are no such options.

Did you install in UEFI mode? Check if /sys/firmware/efi exists when you boot the stick on the working computer.

Is the non-working laptop a UEFI machine?

If the USB stick is a non-UEFI system and the non-working machine is UEFI capable then check the firmware ("BIOS") menus in the non-working computer for an option to boot in "CSM" or "Legacy" mode, this will emulate a non-UEFI system.

No. /sys/firmware/efi doesn't exist

non-working laptop has legacy BIOS only.

Where did you tell the installer to place the bootloader?

Are you sure you selected the USB stick?

Yes. The USB stick is bootable form another computer.

There was some message about libfm...  in dmesg so I've reinstalled libfm* and it's solved.

Question remains whether this usb flash disk is appropriate medium.

ASCII installed on usb flash disk is broken because of disk error. Some correction was made by fsck.

I've reinstalled lxpanel and lxde-core but it didn't help. Any idea pls ?

#44 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [SOLVED] National characters troubles » 2018-12-12 08:28:20

Troubles with saving file and displaying national characters are solved:

  /etc/profile

 : "${LANG:=ru_RU.utf8}"; export LANG
# locale-gen

.bashrc , .profile

export LC_ALL=ru_RU.UTF-8
export LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8
export LANGUAGE=ru_RU.UTF-8 
# dpkg-reconfigure locales

(unattended-upgrade says no error, it has nothing to do now)

chkdsk in Win.8 deleted files with "wrong" filename. Is it please possible to undelete them ? Testdisk does not see any deleted file.

These files were in fact removed to found.001 folder and renamed to file000XYZ.chk

Is it please possible to restore original file name or path ?
