Hello Guys (and gals?) I am (relatively) new to Peterborough, and am having problems with linux installed on my laptop. Would someone be kind enough to come and help me sort it out?
Have been using linux last four or five years and have tried various installs of Ubuntu and Arch on my Sony Vaio PCG-8Z1M. Up until recently it all worked fine, but the latest Ubuntu upgrade has left my system unstable. Not entirely sure if it is the OS or the hardware that is playing up. I have remnants of various installs on different partitions. Ideally I would like to wipe out all installs and start again from scratch.I am reasonably happy tinkering with settings, terminal or command-line, but just feeling a bit out of my depth with this situation, particularly when it comes to formatting partitions. I have some valuable data in one partition which I would rather not lose. I understand that you guys meet up once a month, and that might be a good time to come and get some advice. However, I have missed this months meet and would like to get this sorted before next meeting. If anyone is willing to help me out then please do let me know. I live just off Sugar Way in Peterborough.
