Arch PPC issue with creating bootstrap partition

On second thought, I'm doing good.

On second thought, I'm doing good.
EDIT: Didn't want to be a help vampire. Something I recently learned about, and felt bad to identify as.
So, in case anyone is trying to install Arch on a PowerMac G4, and messed up around the mac-fdisk step, I stumbled upon a thing that you shouldn't do.
After you hit i to initialize the partition map
DON'T hit p too early to print the table. You're supposed to enter the full block size. Doing this causes fdisk to believe you are setting up a 4 block partition. The bootstrap partition has to be 64 blocks, so that will just be completely non-working.
A very simple foolhardy mistake. Forgive me forum, I did not see. That little letter p in the wrong line... nightmarish, now that I look back on it.
The Wiki will lead you well until you get to the kernel.

For the kernel the wiki is giving you something outdated. When you're installing the base, do this:
pacman -r /mnt -S base --ignore linux-pmac64 --ignore linux-pmac
And installing the kernel is like this:
pacman -r /mnt -S linux-pmac
pacman -r /mnt -S linux-pmac64

  • Having an issue with creating a partition for Windows 8?

    Hey, all. I'm trying to make a partition for Windows 8, but now it's stuck on the "shrinking the disc" phase of the partition. It's been over two, and it's only about 25% through. It's been there for a good hour and a half. Should I let it sit through the night, or do a full reboot?

    Likely you have already figured it out by now and this is just a guess.
    I suspect that if the flash skin is linking to it's embedded assets (not embedded) or is using css (same difference) then the flash player is not able to access the assets from the context of the page in which it is being included.  Check for problems with the way that the paths were defined to those assets.

    Hello Vitor,
    There are currently no known issues with version enabled tables that are partitioned. The merge operation may need to access all of the partitions of a table depending on the data that needs to be moved/copied from the child to the parent. This is the reason for the 'Partition Range All' step in the plan that you provided. The majority of the remaining steps are due to the hints that have been added, since this plan has provided the best performance for us in the past for this particular statement. If this is not the case for you, and you feel that another plan would yield better performance, then please let me know and I will take a look at it.
    One suggestion would be to make sure that the table was been recently analyzed so that the optimizer has the most current data about the table.
    Performance issues are very hard to fix without a reproducible test case, so it may be advisable to file a TAR if you continue to have significant performance issues with the mergeWorkspace operation.
    Thank You,
    Ben

  • .Issue with creating a photo book in Iphoto error message states some frames are missing images, but I've checked each one and from I can see they are all filled in. It won't let my buy the book though

    Having an Issue with Creating a photo Book in Iphoto. I continue to get an error message when clicking on "Buy Book" The error indicates that I'm missing a frame or frames from the book. I've checked this many times and cannot locate the issue. The book appears to be complete from my perspective. What can I do now? I worked very hard on this and would hate to lose it all.

    How did you check the book? Did you preview it?
    See:
    iPhoto, Aperture: Previewing an order in iPhoto or Aperture
    Is that the message?
    "your book seems to have frames on one or more pages that do not contain photos. You must either change the layout of those pages or place photos in those frames before you can buy this book."
    The most common reason for this error is, that you have used a page layout that needs a background photo and you have not yet added the backdrop. Then the book is still showing some default grayscale image.
    Check, if one of your page layouts is using this background:
    Then you need to add a photo to the background of the page.

  • Issue with Creating Forecast Profiles/Forecasting

    Hello Experts,
    We are facing an issue with creating forecast profiles.
    We have two FYVs defined in our system, one with 52/53 fiscal weeks (Fiscal Variant W1) and the other with 12 fiscal months (FYV M1), Our storage buckets profile (STP) uses W1,  since we have many dataviews that use W1 as the FYV in the attached Planning buckets profile(PBP). We also have dataviews that display in fiscal months (use FYV M1 in the attached PBP), data from Fiscal weeks will be aggregated and shown in Fiscal months . We need to do forecasting using FYV M1, that is forecast in Fiscal Months , but since the storage bucket profile has W1 which is used in the Planning Area config. We are unable to create any Forecast profiles with FYV M1 . Please note that we cannot use M1 in STP because when we used M1 in STP, we could not create  dataviews in fiscal weeks (using W1)
    1. Is there any way we can forecast using M1 while having assinged W1 to the Planning area/STP ?
    2. OR we are willing to assing M1 to PA, provided we can use W1 in some of the dataviews, unfortunately we were unable to do this, though the vice versa is possible i,e. we could have W1 in STP and M1 in some of the related PBPs/ Weekly Dataviews.
    Please let me know if any of these are possible or if there is any alternative way to do forecasting in Fisc Months.
    Thanks
    Tej

    Hi,
    You are correct, the Storage bucket profile always has to be at a detailed level. Time bucket profile can be at higher levels like monthly, quarterly etc.,
    Coming to the root of your problem, which is you are unable to forecast at a level other that what is specified in your Storage bucket profile, unfortunately the answer is no.
    You can do a forecast only at the level at which the data is stored and not at the level at which the data is viewed.
    One work around for this is to create an additional planning area with the same MPOS and this addl PA can contain only those bare minimum KF required for your forecast. After you generate your forecast, you can copy it to your Weeks based PA and then proceed from there. This copy of KF between PA is much faster as it will happen at LC level and should not cause time delays.
    NOTE - You have to exercise caution when you are using 2 periodicities i.e., weeks and months, if you are using standard SAP calendar then you are good to go. If you are creating custom Fiscal variants pls ensure the start and end of a month is same in both the weekly and monthly variants. Failing which, there will be mismatch of data between the two dataviews.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks

  • Issue with creating List of Values in Business View Manager

    Hi,
    Could any one help me to figure out what this issue refers to?
    When i created a List of Values in Business View Manager, it is throwing the following error!!!!
    The List of Values used by this parameter cannot be based on a Business View derived from the current Data Foundation or Business Element.
    Prior to creating LoV, i've done successfully with creating Data connection, Data foundation, Business element and Business View..
    Thanks
    Viswa

    Hi Visaw,
    Firstly,
    -->Open Repository Explorer,
    -->where you are have related DF,DC,BV,BEand LOV's
    -->Right click on LOV's -->There you can find Schedule list of values.Then schedule list of values and check if it prompts for errors.
    If you face the same problem, what is the error you are getting.
    Else try to use the LOV's and proceed further.
          -->Check whether the LOV's are pointing to the same Business View and check the Business view pointing to the same Datafoundation.
    If you are facing the same problem then try with the below steps:
    -->Try to Create a report at designer level Using then Business view
    -->Create two new parameters and select the existing parameters(LOV parameter's)
    -->Check whether it is working.
    -->If you  face the same problem ,Update the connection of Business view manager.
    Go to Database tab-->Select Set DataSource  location and update it with current Businessview Manager.
    Try this ,and let us know.

  • I need help with creating a partition with bootcamp. I run OSX Lion and want to also run Windows 7.

    Bootcamp is not allowing me to create the partition. The message i get when i try to do so is as follows:
         The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved.
        Back up the disk and use Disk Utility to format it as a single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. Restore your information to the disk and try using Boot      Camp Assistant again.
    I am looking in Disc Utility and am not sure what to do.
    To me it looks like i only have one 'single Mac OS Extended (Journaled) volume. So i am not sure exactly what it is requiring me to do?
    Help greatly appreciated!

    Look to the right under "More Like This". Your issue has been discussed many many times. The error you are seeing is because you do not have enough free "contiguous" space on your hard drive. Read the other threads that address this issue to find how to solve the issue.
    Or, put "The disk cannot be partitioned because some files cannot be moved" into the search box at the upper right of this page.

  • Issue with create user and issue with Java Development tab

    I have two issues with EP,
    1. When i login with Super Admin user, i am unable to Create any user from User Admin tab. Do i have to change the settings of the Super Admin? or is there any criteria for creating the user?
    2. How to assign any user the Java Development tab. Though i login with a super admin user i am unable to see the Java Development role and when tried to assign the role, there were no searches for that Java....

    Hi Adi,
    by default the super administrater has got all permissions. Thus you should be able to create portal users when using a user assigned to the portal group Administrators.
    In order to help you with your first question we need more information. Please describe the malfunction in detail. Have a look into the log files and post related error messages.
    Regarding your second question: You will find the java development role in PCD
    pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/platform_add_ons/com.sap.pct.pdk/Roles/com.sap.pct.pdk.JavaDeveloper.
    If not, then you haven't installed the PDK business package in your portal.
    Go to service.sap.com, choose downloads and search the package (PDK should do it). Download the package, and deploy on your portal using SDM.
    Best regards,
    Martin

  • Issues with Creating Outlines in CS2

    I'm having an issue when a create text outlines in InDesign.  For some reason, and this only happens so far with 2 fonts, when I outline text (highlight text - click "object" - "create outlines") an extra character is added on to the end of certain words.  As far as I can see it is only happening with words that end in "t" like August and Northwest and it adds a second "t".  The two fonts I've had issues with are Bickham Script Pro and Asturias.  The major problem with this is I have clients approve their proofs, then I outline the text in preparation for printing (which is when it adds the extra character), since I'm not doing additional proofreading after the client has approved, the file makes it through printing with the extra character.  Has anyone else seen this?  I've attached an example of what it looks like, the extra character is on the word "Northwest"

    {I hate the way this forum works! I follow stuff by email, which gives no indication of post no. So, I had to click the link in your post to access the thread on the web. (...wait...) No post nos. Sign in (...wait...) go to prefs (...wait...) select Flat view and Save (...wait...)  return to forum (...wait...)  - and find that post 17 was the one I'd replied to, as the Threaded view properly indicated.}
    My point was that the text had clearly not been converted to outlines. Outlines had been created from the text and added to the file, and that is what displays, but the text is still there - otherwise, why would the fonts be embedded? And why would that one piece of text peep out on the right-hand side?

    My boss has a Mac and has installed office 2007. Configured Outlook to connect to our office exchange, all ok.
    Now, to book meetings we use the resources field when added someone. This is not visble in the mac version of office.
    Now, also a issues he has seen which I have witnessed, that if he creates a meeting via his Windows machine in outlook, as soon as he opens Outlook on his mac, all meetings become unbooked. They are still there, just all marked as provisional and hence what happens, he goes to the meeting, to only find the room booekd out to someone else as its only marked as provsional.
    Any ideas, anyone else seen this?

    Since this is software issue with Outlook, and not one related to Macs or Mac OS, you should probably post your question on an Outlook forums:

  • Issue with creating a text box from a loop

    I was hoping someone could take a look at this code and maybe
    help me find out why this isnt working. What I am trying to do is:
    (NOTE: I have used a few differents scripts and combined them, so
    the code may not be the greatest).
    Pull Data from a PHP file (The PHP file gets it's data from
    database)
    Then run a loop that brings in First Name, Last Name, Jersey
    Number, and Position
    Then before it loops and gets the next player it creates an
    array that creates 3 text boxes with Full Name, Jersey Number and
    position
    then it loops through the process again untill all of the
    records have been retreived.
    I'm not sure if its because I have a do while loop inside of
    a for loop inside of a function and an Array. I'm new to Arrays and
    loops. the issue is it wont display the text boxes.
    NOTE: When I trace this, the data is being retrieved.
    Thanks for the help

    "this" inside your onLoad() method refers to your loadvars
    instance, receive. and the loadvars class has no createTextField()
    method, so you're not going to create any textfields if that code
    is in the onLoad() body.
    to remedy, reference a timeline instead of receive.

    I think it will work fine if you use the "Enterprise" authentication option.  It may have dependencies on 32 bit components.  So, that's why we must run IIS in 32 bit mode even though it's on a 64 bit OS.  That means CR supports 64 bit OS systems only if you bring down other components that CR uses to 32 bit levels.  I'm not sure if that is considered "full support". 
    We are trying to use the LDAP authentication option, but that tab is disabled.  Other tabs such as Active Directory and WinNT are disabled as well.  There maybe another component that we must bring down to 32 bit processing.
    Is there a way to enable the LDAP authentication configuration tab?
    thanks

  • Issues with creating EXE in LV 9 (w/ patch)

    When creating an executable in LV 9 (with the new patch installed), it is taking around 7 to 8 minutes to create the executable... where as in LV 8.5 it only took around 1 minute (same VI no changes).
    After the EXE is done I go into my build folder and find the following folders:  NI_HTML, NI_report, NI_Standard Report (these all containing actual VIs (not executables) from the above folder llbs.   This never occurred in 8.5 nor in 7...what's going on here?  I've got a few customers waiting on the EXE and am just stalled due to this.

    This is a joke right?  "cleaner method of distribution"? 
    So I have to do more work to upgrade NI's lower level LLBs in LV 9 when in the 1st place I paid NI to upgrade from 8.5 to 9... doesn't seem close to an upgrade (in regards to plug & play quality) to me!  The resource page that supposedly shows you how to fix this issue is vague!  ???????   Geesh.
    Maybe this is a better way to do things with the "Object Oriented Program" & Classes... though, for a someone only a few years deep in LV...this is not efficient at all (NI is going to start killing it's marketable value if they make this any more difficult).
    "Solution:
    The Report Generation Toolkit 1.1.3
    released with LabVIEW 8.6 was rewritten using LabVIEW classes and
    LabVIEW Object Oriented Program. Because of these changes and the
    improvements in performance, there are some files that currently are
    added explicity to the build directory. Therefore, the behavior is
    expected and the executable will run without problems. In a pursuit of
    a cleaner method of distribution when configuring the Build
    Specifications for executable, all the generated folders can be placed
    into one support directory."
