Ethernet not working on a Dell notebook

2024-03-15 Thread frantal
Here part of the command "dmesg" I tried to scroll back, then select all and 
copy, but I didn't see all the answer of the command. I don't know how to do it!

Meanwhile I cancelled what I wrote on /etc/default/grub and now it is as it was 
originally.

Reboot also didn't help.

Thanks again for the help

Francesco

Ethernet not working on a Dell notebook

2024-03-13 Thread frantal
Hello,

thanks for your answers.

I used the cable with other notebooks and it worked.

In any case I used another cable to test it, but I had the same reactions, no 
connection!

Today I had to give the command 3 times before having a connection...

So I give a try to ask to ChatGPT what does it mean that command and this was 
the answer:

Finally while trying to find the solution I tried this command and after some 
seconds I was online:

sudo mii-tool enp19s0 -F 10baseT-FD

The problem is that every time I shut off the notebook Ito have ethernet 
connection again I have to give that command by terminal. Is there the 
possibility to make default this ethernet module? Thanks and regards

Hello, I succeeded in solving the problem by running testdisk on Debian then 
recuperate Mac partition and when I rebooted only Mac system run.

Then I reinstalled REFind and the problem was solved.

Now I have the 2 systems again!

Request of urgent help....

2022-01-12 Thread frantal
Hi. I inadvertently deleted the Mac and EFI partitions of an HD inserted on a 
Macbook Pro (2009). Fortunately I have the Linux one (with Debian XFCE) that I 
am writing from. I tried to recover with Gparted (by installing gpart), but 
after more than an hour I stopped having no recovery signal. Then I installed 
test disk and this is the screen.

https://www.cgsecurity.org

All partitions appear highlighted in green.
What can I do to reset Mac OS?
I don't dare shut down because I'm afraid it won't reboot anymore having wiped 
the EFI partition as well.
How can I do without loosing the Mac data? Thanks in advance

Double boot (Windows & Debian) with UEFI mode

2021-12-06 Thread frantal
Hello,

unfortunately, nothing David suggested worked, so I finally set it on in the 
bios Legacy (via F12) and then reinstalled Debian.

Now if I turn on, Grub appears with Debian that starts (even if it takes a 
while to boot) and if I want to use Windows, at boot, I have to click F12 and 
select boot with UEFI and then Windows 10 starts.

I tried to install os-prober on Debian, but it is already installed and doing 
update-grub, but Windows is not shown (Probably because it is inserted in the 
UEFI boot).

Is there any way to fix this mess?

Double boot (Windows & Debian) with UEFI mode

2021-12-03 Thread frantal

Hi,
I was unable to install Grub. Via ‘rescue mode’ of installation cd, it doesn't 
make me do it; takes me to the partitioning window. Then I did a reboot which 
gave me a screenshot
error: file ‘/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod’ not found.

On:

grub rescue>ls 
(hd0) (hd0,gpt8) (hd0,gpt7) (hd0,gpt6) (hd0,gpt5) (hd0,gpt4) (hd0,gpt3) 
(hd0,gpt2) (hd0,gpt1)

By giving ls command to each partition only (hd0,gpt6) and (hd0,gpt8) are given 
as ext2 filesystem (the other as ‘unknown’ filesystem)
Then, to know more, I gave the following commands:

grub rescue> ls (hd0,gpt6)/
./ ../ lost+found/ home/ etc/ media/ vmlinuz.old var/ bin usr/ sbin lib lib32 
lib64 libx32 boot/ dev/ proc/ root/ run/ sys/ tmp/ mnt/ srv/ apt/ debootstrap/ 
initrd.img.old vmlinuz initrd.img

grub rescue> ls (hd0,gpt6)/boot
./ ../ config-5.10.0-9-amd64 vmlinuz-5.10.0-9-amd64 efi/ 
System.map-5.10.0-9-amd64 initrd.img-5.10.0-9-amd64

Now I don't know how I can do to continue and if this datas can be useful to 
solve

Double boot (Windows & Debian) with UEFI mode

2021-12-02 Thread frantal
Hello,

yes HD is 1TB and Debian partition is 300GB (not Mb).

Currently Windows starts directly without reporting other OSes present.

So should I use the installation disk in "rescue mode" and reinstall Grub to 
Debian's / partition (27.94 GiB dev/sda6)?

How to install os-prober?

I think I have to be able to boot Debian first to be able to install it later.

Right?

Double boot (Windows & Debian) with UEFI mode

2021-12-01 Thread frantal
I have installed Debian 11 on a Dell T1650 Desktop PC (i7 & 24 GB RAM).

I resized the 1GB HD leaving 300MB on which I installed Debian.

At the request of the installation of Grub I indicated the HD.

Now looking at it with Gparted the HD is divided as follows:
dev / sda1 EFI system partition  (fat32) 100 MiB
dev / sda2 Microsoft reserved Partition (unknown) 16MiB
dev / sda3 Basic data partition (ntfs)629.28 GiB
dev / sda5 grub2 core.img   1.00 MiB
dev / sda6 ext4  27.94 GiB
dev / sda7 linux-swap 977.00 MiB
dev / sda8 ext4   272.71 GiB
dev / sda4 ntfs520.00 MiB
not allocated not allocated 1.71 MiB
What would be better to do to get Grub up and running?

Can I do something to be able to boot on 2 OS (Windows 10 & Debian 11)

Or do I have to make use of rEFInd?

The boot is in UEFI mode.

Thanks for help

Debian 11 on old Macbook

2021-11-27 Thread frantal
Hello,
thanks for the help and suggestions:
I don't need to press alt (option) to view the operating systems because I have 
rEFInd installed.
However, 2 Debian icons appear, one OS X, and one Windows.
If I click on the latter, a white writing on a black background appears with: 
MBR 12: and a flashing underscore.
But I can't write anything.
The Debian 2 takes me to Debian and OS X to the Apple operating system. 
Assuming I keep the 2 Debian, how do I get rid of the Windows symbol, since it 
doesn't lead anywhere, so it results useless?
Thanks again
Francesco

Debian 11 on old Macbook

2021-11-24 Thread frantal
Hello,

I installed Debian 11 (386) on a 2009 Macbook Pro 13 "(5.5).

The installation did not give me any problems except it did not detect wifi 
card and touchpad, but I was connected with ethernet and used an external 
mouse, so the whole process ended.

During the installation phase of Grub I only chose the hd that appeared in the 
window and did all the installer.

I enclose photos of the subdivision that the installer did. I only chose to 
install Debian on a partition that I had left empty choosing partitions / and 
home Unfortunately Debian does not appear on reboot and neither does Grub, but 
Mac OS (Snow Leopard) starts immediately How can I solve this problem?

If I reinstall using AMD64 instead, what can be the right suggestions to 
install Grub in the right place to reboot with it?

Thanks and regards

Clone Debian 10 partitions to another HD

2021-10-01 Thread frantal
About the questions sent:

Fujitsu Esprimo P2560 MI4W-D2041

Intel® Pentium® processor E5700 (2 Cores / 2 Threads, 3.0 GHz, 2 MB, 800 MHz) 
RAM 2+4 GB.

Video card included in the motherboard

internal HD 300 GB

I think there would be added a second HD of 80 GB or maybe another of 300 GB 
because actually in the internal HD there are installed Windows 10 and Debian 
10.

The use will be general, just internet and some simple use for a normal person 
(Not special or specifically and deep use).



Clone Debian 10 partitions to another HD

2021-09-30 Thread frantal
Taking a cue from the Thread "About user and password on Debian 10" I would 
like to transfer the partitions related to Debian 10 to a larger HD, but with 
the possibility of having the / partition larger than the current one. It's 
possible?

I was thinking of using Filezilla, but I don't know if I have to move one 
partition at a time (to enlarge that /) or if I can transfer everything at once.

Do you have ideas, suggestions, experiences?

Thanks

About user and password on Debian 10 (Solved)

2021-09-30 Thread frantal
I wanted to let everyone know that I was able to fix the problem even though I 
will have to open another thread to fix the cause of the problem. The cause of 
not being able to enter the Debian user desktop was that the / partition was 
too full! I had installed Debian with 2 partitions (/ + home, and obviously 
swap) It was enough to remove an app and "magically" on reboot I was able to 
re-enter the user desktop.

Thanks for suggestion and only thank to be able to enter to "root desktop" made 
me able to remove the app and solve the problem.

About User and password on Debian 10

2021-09-30 Thread frantal
I have installed Debian 10 (XFCE) on an old computer and now after a year of 
use although I put right user and password it reappear the window that asks 
user and password. I entered as root and it goes on with a desktop where I can 
work. There, on Terminal, I tried to change password of user  passwd "user" (my 
name), but it doesn't accept other passwords. Only the old password! Then I 
reboot and again it asks user and password without letting me enter in the 
"user" desktop. Where can I look to solve this problem? Thanks to all
