I just installed LL 4.0 and followed the instructions to dual boot alongside Windows 7. The install went great, but how do I get to windows now? I don't see it anywhere. Did I overwrite it and now it's gone? That wouldn't be the end of the world, I just want to know if I should try harder to figure it out or just accept that windows is gone.

Hi, I've got three Menu items that do not point to any program and I can not get rid of them. These items do not show in the menu editor. Is there a way to manually edit the menu and delete residual entries? If so, a detailed step by step would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

I'm at the point where you pick the ntfs drive and the manual says sda3. I don't know what to choose. I have 2 that say windows 7 recovery, one that says fat 32 and one that has the right space but says unusable. Checking it causes the change button to fade so I can't press it. What do I choose? Thanks.
ETA: can I just shoose the FAT 32 drive and use that for my LL?

Hello,
this is the script -
![[Image: menu-driven.png]](https://i.ibb.co/x6nvNSK/menu-driven.png)
this is the error message on option 3 only
![[Image: menu-driven2.png]](https://i.ibb.co/JRQMWmN/menu-driven2.png)
I set the shell script permissions to -
As it was what the book specified to use in the first chapter of the shell scripting chapters.
I checked the "18G..." results with error , by changing lines #33 and #36 by adding
the program produces no error, but of course it needs the password to be typed, this confirmed the results of "18G...", as correct. In that the script, as in screenshot above, has the permission denied error but is producing the correct results shown on the next line in the terminal after the error, on the screenshot above.
Options 1, 2, and 0 work without any errors in the program.
The only changes I have made to the script from the book is to beautify the code alignment to my liking.
The error happens before this when run, and still does, so it has not affected the programs functioning.
I would like some help as to how to run this script on option3 without it producing the error.

| Use Deja Dup for LL 4.2 home directory backups? |

Linux newbie, just installed LL 4.2 a few days ago. Per the Getting Stated screen I ran TimeShift the first day I had LL installed and made a complete system backup/restore point, if I understand that software correctly.
Now I'm backing up my Home directory to an external USB drive, and I believe Deja Dup is the correct tool for that. I'm running Deja Dup now, the first backup Iv'e done using that tool, so it's taking some time, as expected.
Do I understand this correctly, that TimeShift should be used to take entire system "snapshots" , and Deja Dup should be used to back up the Home directory (data only) on a regular basis?
Thanks.

Linux newbie here, just installed LL 4.2 a few days ago. So far everything is working well with no glitches. Delightful OS compared to my Win7/10 systems.
Question: Is there a Linux version of the MS card game Freecell? It came standard with Win7 but I haven't found a Linux version. I searched the forums here but didn't get any hits.
Thanks.

| Terminal error message on each time it opens - unknown locale: en_IL |

I've installed a clean 4.2, added Hebrew as a supported language right after first-time system-update and driver-update (buttons).
Each time I open the terminal I get a Traceback related to a language that does not exist.
As far as I know Hebrew encoding is 'he_IL' while English languages are usually 'en_*' (en_UK, en_US,..).
It seems that adding a language that is not English kept the preset 'en_'.
