From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectre_(security_vulnerability) Spectre is now mitigated, but there have been a few other such vulnerabilities as mentioned online.

Perhaps see where chrono is on the filesystem and adjust the #include accordingly. E.g.: [tom@min ~]$ locate chrono /usr/include/c++/13/bits/chrono.h /usr/include/c++/13/bits/chrono_io.h /usr/include/c++/13/chrono /usr/include/c++/13/experimental/chrono In this case: #include...

@krystalkarma06 wrote in post #1: I take it from this quote that "car driver' is a typo and is really "card driver" The Transcend device that has been plugged in, is a usb card reader, which is a block device. When it's plugged in to a computer, the kernel creates a block device for each port...

I'm sorry about the misunderstanding. It was the expression "my favorite" that tripped me up and which I misinterpreted.

[tom@min ~]$ ddate Today is Boomtime, the 34th day of Discord in the YOLD 3190

Perhaps this: [tom@min ~l]$ ALLOWDEVFILE=$(echo "/foo/bar/file with spaces") [tom@min ~]$ echo $ALLOWDEVFILE /foo/bar/file with spaces

To do a "rough" comparison for word counts on a file using html2text, and a screen scrape of the text by accessing it in a browser, I used the file: /usr/share/synaptic/html/apa.html. The screen scrape of the text of the .html file was pasted into the file: htmlword.txt, using the text editor...

I guess you are referring to your proposal at: https://www.linux.org/threads/dual-and-multi-boot-systems.47320/ Unfortunately, the OP is working with a Lenovo Thinkpad E14 Gen 5 rather than a desktop box.

I have been lambasted online for UUOC (check wikipedia), but my finger memory operates in just the way the article describes.

Just as I was posting this reply, @wizardfromoz posted, which I would follow up on. Here is the post I just prepared: The idea of partitioning the drive is worth trying. The latest Gparted live disk has just recently upgraded to the 6.7.9-2 kermel version...

You may not have messed it up at all. I can only speculate about what happened, but as I understand it, you booted up the beta ubuntu-cinnamon disk, and it saw the larger disk. You reported that it works in post #46. Then, when trying to install the distro, it failed to see the disk. There are...

@banana789, thanks for the info in post #55. It looks fine to me. Here's a rundown of some observations: /dev/nvme0n1p1 is the EFI partition. It's almost certainly in proper order since the MS system works. Recommendations for the size of the EFI partition range from 256MB to 512MB. If you...

It certainly sounds like a very frustrating ride with such a near miss. You can clone MS to the larger drive and implement something like the proposal in the last paragraph of post #23, or some combination of the ideas in that post. Note the partitioning idea there, which if implemented may only...

The tee command creates the files foo, rather than copies them. If the file foo exists in the directory that the tee command is being run from, it is not that particular file named foo that will be moved to the specified directories, but rather, tee will create empty files with the name foo in...

Now c'mon Condo, I'm just a bloke that's been at it for a while :) No gurus at my place!

Can the machine be booted to text mode? Presumably as a server it may be able to work in text mode, at least to some degree. See how to do that, in case you are uncertain, here: https://www.linuxuprising.com/2020/01/how-to-boot-to-console-text-mode-in.html If the machine can boot to text mode...

Alas, only if it were so :)
