    [ubuntu] Re: AHCI or SATA mode in BIOS?

    [ubuntu] Re: Booting ubuntu into Windows

    You put the CD in the computer and reboot and load from the cd instead of the hard drive and follow the installation through.

    You could always use:


    sudo shutdown -rF now

    which reboots you machine and forces a disk check on reboot.
  22. [ubuntu] Re: File sharing - Ubuntu 10.10 on both. They can't see one another
