| 00:52.19 | bonez2046 | hello tene |
| 01:04.14 | klys | bonez are you trying to fix a resized ntfs partition |
| 01:08.49 | bonez2046 | yes, essentially |
| 01:09.01 | bonez2046 | son went to bed, laptop running win8 was operable |
| 01:09.10 | bonez2046 | woke up and got an automatic repair loop.... |
| 01:09.28 | bonez2046 | have tried various things...I have the laptop booted now with live cd |
| 01:10.25 | klys | if it's windows 7... |
| 01:10.54 | klys | er, I think you need the iso for windows 8 |
| 01:12.17 | bonez2046 | I have , er.. win 8 was installed...thisi is a win 8 laptop |
| 01:13.00 | bonez2046 | no win 7 anywhere in the vicinity |
| 01:14.52 | klys | http://support.microsoft.com/kb/927392 |
| 01:15.24 | klys | I know that works booting the windows .iso under qemu and can restore boot to at least windows 7. |
| 01:16.09 | *** join/#utah frostyfrog (~frostyfro@c-67-186-228-73.hsd1.ut.comcast.net) |
| 01:16.10 | klys | ...and it doesn't state an explicit windows version |
| 01:17.12 | bonez2046 | pastebin.ca/2516707 |
| 01:18.13 | bonez2046 | that's the contents of the drive if I run smartctl -a /dev/sda4 |
| 01:21.11 | ldav15 | Not a good message to see: SMART overall-health self-assessment test result: FAILED! ... failure in less than 24 hrs. ... SAVE ALL DATA! |
| 01:21.55 | klys | eww 5400, might be old, try turning of bios udma |
| 01:21.56 | bonez2046 | hehehe, that works in an ideal environment.. but the laptop user is 18.. and he knows everything....in a few years he'll admit there are things he never knew |
| 01:22.06 | bonez2046 | so there is stuff lost |
| 01:22.28 | klys | <PROTECTED> |
| 01:23.39 | klys | also if the drive is recognized from a linux boot (knoppix?) I would be curious if you got a bunch of seekcomplete errors and it wouldn't mount |
| 01:24.00 | bonez2046 | is the udma in bios settings? want me to go there? |
| 01:24.08 | klys | make sure it's off |
| 01:24.20 | klys | yes |
| 01:25.26 | bonez2046 | where is udma. I have bios open now |
| 01:26.07 | klys | ...should be next to options for ata0 / ata1 |
| 01:26.30 | klys | if it makes you choose, put it on lba |
| 01:27.25 | klys | it's the harddrive / ide options |
| 01:27.43 | bonez2046 | for SATA mode? |
| 01:27.52 | klys | sounds right |
| 01:28.01 | bonez2046 | ahci or ide? |
| 01:28.09 | bonez2046 | this doesn't look right |
| 01:28.23 | klys | what does it say |
| 01:28.46 | klys | you just want to disable dma I think |
| 01:28.53 | bonez2046 | the bios has information, main, security, boot and exit |
| 01:29.10 | bonez2046 | I am searching for udma or hard drive options |
| 01:29.28 | klys | so, sata mode: ahci/ide -- choose ide |
| 01:30.18 | klys | ...some older technology as long as it's not chs |
| 01:30.26 | bonez2046 | ok, that's changed |
| 01:30.44 | klys | can you load the kernel |
| 01:30.47 | bonez2046 | and rebooted.... |
| 01:30.59 | bonez2046 | trying now |
| 01:31.19 | bonez2046 | it just goes into the repair mode upon boot |
| 01:31.32 | klys | it's all you need, if it's a linux repair mode |
| 01:31.40 | klys | first: # mount -t proc proc /proc |
| 01:34.16 | bonez2046 | ok, let me reboot the machine with livecd |
| 01:35.50 | bonez2046 | I am so unfamiliar with uefi...it's driving me nuts |
| 01:36.13 | klys | wow that would drive me batty too |
| 01:36.23 | klys | can you just fdisk -l /dev/sda |
| 01:36.49 | bonez2046 | once I get a terminal, I will |
| 01:42.00 | klys | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hybrid_MBR#HYBRIDMBR |
| 02:01.42 | bonez2046 | I am confident my drive is damaged... |
| 02:06.22 | klys | were there errors |
| 02:07.17 | bonez2046 | yes, errors..high g-sense errors too |
| 02:07.22 | bonez2046 | it was likely dropped |
| 02:08.06 | klys | so, the kernel was giving you errors about a specific device that flooded your terminal, prohibiting you from mounting ntfs... |
| 02:08.52 | bonez2046 | no...I ran smartctl -a /dev/sda4 and it showed several errors....and failures when testing the drive |
| 02:09.21 | klys | # mount -o ro -t ntfs /dev/sda1 /mnt |
| 02:09.44 | klys | er, yeah sda4 |
| 02:09.51 | bonez2046 | I'll try that...after anotherh diagnostic test finished |
| 02:10.04 | bonez2046 | running gwscan 5.12 right now |
| 02:10.19 | bonez2046 | takes nearly an hour |

| 22:56.43 | shalkie | Turns out that broadband.utah.gov was lying about them providing services at that location. |
| 22:58.31 | keldwud | gee. I wonder what their incentive to do that would be |
| 22:58.45 | keldwud | why would somebody lie about something like that? |
| 22:58.49 | keldwud | :) |
| 22:59.11 | keldwud | I mean, I know why they lied. It's just ridiculous that people would try and lie about something like that. |

| 23:06.52 | yukaia_work | I highly doubt that it was on purpose. |
| 23:24.33 | shalkie | I merely ment that website was inaccurate in its depection of broadband services available at the location. |
