Do you have windows ?
Have you installed
Frankly have WANTED to install grub for a long time since i keep
experimenting with various distros. Have never got around to doing it
though i am a linux noob in that aspect. Have always got thru with

Dear Ramnarayan,
Thanks for replying me,
1) I installed Ubuntu 'Within Windows' (WUBI), because I have only one
partition, and I got a genuine Windows.
2) battery icon is not visible, then I went to Power Management from system

For those of you who haven't heard, the first developer preview of
Diaspora has been released. It's social networking software that
allows you to be in control of your own data (cf: Facebook/Orkut). The
concept is of "seeds" or individual deployments of this software that
can talk to each other, so
There is a significant difference between installing to a HDD and
making a liveUSB. In the first case the entire file system is
extracted on to the hard disk.
On a USB you dont "install", you copy the compressed file system and

Once saved on the phone, i just connected the phone and computer thru
data cable and selected the mobile connection in the Network Manager.

Hello,
For my project need, I need to install NFS by compiling Kernel.
During configuration I have checked the corresponding NFS V3 options.
After booting into the compiled Kernel, I am not able to run the NFS.
Basically daemon required for NFS are not there like rpc.mountd & few

dear all,
any application-based firewall which is active and working well and copyleft?
found tuxguardian, but not developed beyond 2006

My Opinion:
I don't think Linux crashed this machine.
I cant understand why the system is accessing PXE boot. Am sure you know
what PXE boot is. The trick to recover this machine lie here. May be its is
a fall back option if it cant find the Win boot loader.

Might give it a try. IF your friend allows you to try. It really feels bad
when such things happen. You more or less feel guilty of f*cking up a good

Just a thought.
I have about 35GB of Music, mostly in mp3 @128kbps or VBR. If I were to
