.deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

[elludium_q-36]

I just need a temporary fix to read an external USB disk with an ext4 file system (running 10.04, external boot). I can't boot with this disk on this machine but would like to access files

Thanks.

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

Just plug it in to your Linux system -- there's no issue reading an ext4 (or ext3 or ext2 or FAT or reiserfs or xfs ....) filesystem. Just be sure to "safely remove" before you disconnect it.

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

but does Hardy's kernel support ext4? Nope. You would need a newer kernel as one option
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...7#post10035977

BUT if you can boot to a newer live disk, you should be able to read the ext4 drive and copy the data that way.

Oh geeez, good point Claydoh. It seems like ext4 has been here forever -- April of 2008 seems so long ago! :P

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

Yes thanks for replying but as I wrote in the first post:

I can't boot with this disk on this machine

Maybe the BIOS or hardware is at issue. I've had the USB boot run pretty slow on other public machines too.

I just wanted a temporary fix, if it were possible.

I was all set to migrate to 10.04 on my old home box, 'till I AGAIN had another problem with "unmanaged" and therefore OFFLINE network manager. ( I was able to fix that, 'till it recurrs and also downloaded Wicd on the USB boot disk).

Thanks.

public machines??

Attention Earth: if you see the guy above lurking around computers at the library, call your local authorities!

Hey SteveRiley,

I SEE YOU!!!!

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

The BIOS has to have USB boot enabled, and then the removable USB device has to be ahead of the internal hdd in the BIOS boot sequence. If you're trying it on older PCs found in public places, you might have found machines that don't support booting from USB.

[elludium_q-36]

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

Thanks dibl,

I do know that already. My home computer has a bios that does basically support the booting but is not very modern. It gets to 10.04's login, starts the splash screen but burps back to the login.

Many of the referenced public computers have been set to usb boot as priority by an enterprising netizen but still require pressing a key (Function 12) and selecting from a "one time boot menu" (Dell optiplex). Good enough in that regard.

When I mentioned a slow public machine, 'twas at a 'net cafe'. I had thought that it's native copy of windows was the culprit but I used firefox on both windows and my 10.04 boot and sometimes Firefox is a buggy resource hog.

It gets to 10.04's login, starts the splash screen but burps back to the login.

OK, that is NOT a booting problem, that is a "User locked out of his account for some reason" problem. There are several causes -- take a look at #10 on the FAQs in my signature.

[elludium_q-36]

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

Perhaps dibl,

but why does it work fine booting via USB on other desktops?

You raise an interesting point there about sudo/kdesudo, kate and dolphin that perhaps we can address in another thread. It relates to a problem I had here: http://kubuntuforums.net/forums/inde...1744#msg281744

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

but why does it work fine booting via USB on other desktops?

Do you mean it boots other desktop environments like Gnome or xfce? That makes sense -- that means that only your KDE configuration is broken. "Booting" ends when the Linux kernel is loaded and running. Starting an X session, with desktop environment, is a post-booting event.

If you are not totally attached to your KDE customizations, then you can move/rename the hidden .kde folder in your user's home directory, shutdown X (or just reboot) and it should log you in. You'll have to use the tty console to rename .kde, since KDE won't come up.

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

MY copy of 10.04, on an EXTERNAL HDD boots just fine, into the K/KDE desktop environment on some other machines I've tried.

The trouble comes when trying to boot on my home machine, currently running 8.04.

I post spec's for my home PC below and specifications for an example machine used to USB boot 10.04, generated from package "HardInfo"...

Specifications follow:

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

So, it is happy to display on the Radeon HD3450, but it does not like your Unichrome S3 VT8378. I have never installed on a S3, but I would assume the video driver that you want to load, when running on your home machine, is xserver-xorg-video-s3. I'm not sure what the kernel module name is. But you need to check the Ubuntu video guidance for 10.04 and verify.

For each different computer that you try to boot on, you'll have to adapt the installed configuration to the video hardware on your target computer (i.e. load the needed kernel module).

BTW, if you use a "Live CD" configuration for your bootable OS, you can avoid this issue (but trade it for others, like "persistence", etc.).

Re: .deb package to read EXT4 filesystem in 8.04

On my HOME machine, I just tried a fresh install of 10.04. on an INTERNAL IDE Hard Disk Drive that I wiped/formatted and guess what, it did the SAME THING!!!

After what seemed to be a successful install, it accepted my login/password but hiccuped during the splash screen and burped back to the same graphic login prompt...

This box had ran 8.04 fine... Well, actually it has been a bit wonky/screwy...
I booted a couple versions of Puppy Linux and they seemed to be fine but I need KPPP for the moment /dve/ttyACM0

I might have a Lubuntu disk lying about...
