Alright, I've just about given up. I don't have a clue what to do at this point as I am at a loss.

My computer configuration makes this type of install very helpful. How exactly would I go about installing Ubuntu like this, especially with specific things like installing using Ext2 instead of Ext4?

Alright, so here is an update.

Because I disabled Intel RST and I added a 5th partition to my hard drive, it is no longer in a RAID 0 array. Because of this, I can not re-activate Intel RST. This...

This is my last post for the night.

Until someone responds, I am going to stop trying to install Ubuntu.

Because of this, I went to try and reactivate Intel RST, but now I'm having an issue...

Hello everyone,

I posted this in the laptop thread as well, as I am not completely sure where to post this specific question.

I just got the new HP DV6t-7000, and I really want to dual boot...

Alright, now I don't know where to install it. I created a new NTFS partition in Windows, and then converted it to Ext4 when I got into Ubuntu using Gparted. Problem is, when I go to install, it...

Alright, so I disabled Intel RST and have attempted to install Ubuntu 11.04 from a USB stick, but I kept getting a no root error.

I booted back into windows, and attempted to install via WUBI from...

Hi everyone,

I just got a brand new HP DV6t Quad Edition that I really want to use with Ubuntu and Windows. I have dual booted on my desktop, but I'm a little concerned about dual booting on this...

That was the first thing I did. smb worked up to the point when I needed to enter my authorization password (I assumed it was my workgroup password) but the password didn't work. I tried to use the...

Alright, I guess I'll keep trying my luck or someone else will attempt to help. Thanks anyway.

Wow, don't I feel like an idiot. I post problems all the time, and this just happens to be the one that I forget to post my setup. Sorry, I'll edit the first post.

Hi Everyone,

So I just installed 11.04 on an old Compaq tower and I am having some trouble connecting to a printer on the network. I have tried looking for some type of guide/tutorial or any other...

Well you definitely came to the right place. These guys are really great. Before anyone else gives you advice, have you made sure you are spelling everything correctly? Sometimes the font makes it...

Hey everyone,

So here is my situation: I have my grandpa's laptop with a wifi dongle (some edimax thing) that has not so great range. I am trying to find an easy to set up solution that will boost...

BTW, are there any easy to set up wifi boosters that you can recommend? I have a good signal up to a few feet from the router, but if I go upstairs it won't connect (and I'm hoping that in FA I will...

None, it works amazing. I have restarted about 4 times now (this is going to my grandpa in FA so it has to work) and every time, wifi always works. I honestly love you (in that not gay way). You have...

Thanks you so much, that was really great. One other question though. When I use the command sudo make install I get something that says

"cp: connot stat `/autoconf_rtl8192c_usb_linux.h`:no such...

My bad, it seems linux is very big on capitals and lowercase...

Alright, I'll do that as soon as I do a reinstall. For some reason or another, ubuntu won't start, and I have no clue what is going on because I'm a linux noob.

The reason I had to wireless cards...

Alright, so I used this method. It worked for about 5 minutes, and then I restarted. Now I can't tell if the wireless is coming from the crappy card (although I suspect it is) or if it is coming from...

So it turns out that there is a difference between 1 and lowercase L. I am such and idiot. Anyway, its working great now. Thanks for all of your help man.

I'm still getting no directory found. I'm done for the night. I'll come back tomorrow and hopefully we/I/others can help to solve this annoying problem.

Btw, I found this link on a Newegg site (http://www.realtek.com/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=48&PFid=48&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false&Downloads=true#RTL8192CU) and there is...

Nope, same thing...this is very odd.

Does it help if I tell you I have the driver files on a usb stick and not the hd?
