  2. Re: I have a script for updating the system. Could you please tell me if it's correct

    I don't understand the point, simply running update, upgrade and dist-upgrade should be sufficient (I think it does all of those things automatically anyway)

    Re: Burn windows 10 iso to usb.

    I had no issues with a Windows 8 iso, just needed to make sure it was NTFS. Might have changed for Windows 10 but it was just a standard iso MS distribute online when I did it.

    You can (carefully) do it with dd. Make sure the disk is formatted as NTFS.

    What's the output of

    Agreed, didn't notice that first time looking.

    GCC should still find the source file though shouldn't it? As long as it is saved.

    alsamixer and see if automute is enabled.

    Re: How to reinstall 16.04.01

    What is your partitioning layout like? It's possible if you have a separate /home and /usr partition to just reinstall system wide files just by reformatting the root partition.
