  Networking icon in tray, orange underline - what does it mean?
Posted by: packzap - 01-26-2024, 06:02 PM - Forum: Network - Replies (3)

I have Linux Lite installed (altho when I go to System Information, it says the operating system is Ubuntu 20.04.6 :023: ). I've noticed recently that the small networking icon down at the bottom right of the tray bar, shows an orange underline below it.  I am connected to my network with a WiFi connection and browsing the internet seems normal. Clicking the icon and selecting System information shows the correct network information with no errors.

I tried disabling wifi and networking, and re-enabling, and also rebooting the system, but the orange line continues to show under the networking tray icon.  All the latest updates are installed.  What does the orange underline signify?

  unable to install
Posted by: aldo44 - 01-26-2024, 10:20 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (4)

Hello everyone, my apologies for the English translation.
New to this forum, I wanted to greet you.
I wanted to install LL6.6 in dual boot of Win11 on two different disks but I found myself with an alarm 2 to 3 minutes after the start of the installation.
alarm:
End kernel panic-not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount roots on unknown - block(1,0)
Your opinion please because I don't see what else I'm making with the BIOS and an aptio AMI on an Acemagic AD08 mini PC.
Thank you in advance for your help

  5.8 Install claims to work but get grub prompt on boot
Posted by: SpencerArnold - 01-25-2024, 07:27 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (3)

I perform a standard install from a USB Image to a small Intel NUC box (8GB memory, couple of CPUs) and when it completes its reboot,and goes back to BIOS, I remove the memory stick and I get the grub prompt. Watching the messages, it claims it's doing the mkboot of sda, and claims to be updating grub but won't boot cleanly after install. I have always selected "wipe config".

FAQ
- It's your hardware / check your BIOS - worked the last 12 times I installed the same image on the same hardware. BIOS boot order is correct (hard drive first, USB second)
- Oh that's easy, just perform [insert 50 grillion commands here] - no, this project is for general public release, they do not have the capacity for 50 grillion commands and besides, it worked before; I need this to be consistent.

I am a Redhat Sysadmin for a living for 20+ years, I have made many custom ISOs and PXE/DHCP boot configs; I know the way OS installs are supposed to work. This OS Install is not working.

Any advice would be appreciated. Regards, Spencer

  Why is there no ALTERNATE installer?
Posted by: skarecrow - 01-21-2024, 06:59 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - No Replies

I think there is alot of us that would love a smaller iso that maybe gives a more minimal install or a net install?
Im having loads of problems with the installer on many machines where it just chokes during install.. no errors.. just hangs .. forever.
