You might want to look in the Xorg logs (/var/log/Xorg.0.log) for lines containing "(EE)". They should point to the error(s).
There are several "layers" to consider: the filesystem size, the volume group size and the logical volume size... All three have to be increased after you've added empty space to the disk.
This...
You might want to look into DKMS: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/DKMS.
This depends on how you created the USB. If you created it to be a "live" USB, it will not store any changes you make. You'll need to create the USB to be "persisent". A google search of "ubuntu...
Ubuntu's software packages are mostly determined by the versions in the Debian branch with which Ubuntu syncs with when they begin a new release ('sid' for normal releases and 'testing' for LTS). So...

You might want to investigate Clonezilla for this:

Okay, first of all, if you're just trying to install something, have you checked whether the program exists in the Ubuntu repositories?
If after doing so you still want to install from source,...
I would say no. Just install boot into the Ubuntu installation disk/usb and install to the space you've selected.
What you're calling "d:\" is where you're installing Ubuntu, right? If so, I...
You can boot in with a live CD/USB and move whatever files you want to keep, then reinstall Ubuntu and move them back into place. That's really the only way to do what you're asking (if I'm...
If you installed something with wine, you have to remove it with wine. There should be an Uninstall Wine Software menu item that would probably do what you're after.
LTS releases are every 2 years (8.04, 10.04, 12.04). 11.04 is a standard release, but it's supported through October, so you're fine for the moment. You will be prompted to upgrade to 11.10 as soon...
So have you done any sort of evaluation of the hardware, aside from attempting this install?
Can you provide the specs? (Memory, processor model, hard disk?)
Broken package errors can...
10.04 is the oldest supported version. If that's running slow, you definitely want to consider running Xubuntu or Lubuntu.
Assuming you're using vpnc to connect (via NetworkManager), if you open a terminal and do
ifconfig
you should see a device called 'tun0' or something of the sort that is assigned an IP...
Try the steps listed here:

Then post back if that doesn't work.
/var/log/dmesg would suffice
But you will need to provide more detail about what's happening when you attempt boot if you need assistance ;-).
Try installing the 32-bit libraries:
sudo apt-get install ia32-libs
Can you provide some details about what happened? They may shed some light on a problem you're not noticing that someone else would see.
There's a bug report on what appears to be the same...
mv /home/username/Downloads/*.pdf /home/username/ebooks/
(substituting your actual username for "username" and the correct directory path to your ebooks folder, of course)
cp is for...
This is another Linux distribution, not something you would install on top of Ubuntu. If your system has enough hard disk space and memory (and preferably virtualization extensions on your...
Are there any log messages that appear before you're kicked into BusyBox (there usually are)?
Can you describe what's not working? Have you tried using another USB drive?
Can you describe what you've done and what isn't working?
General advice: open one forum post per separate issue for the best help ;-).
