Asus vivobook s400ca SSD + HHD UEFI install issues

Hi folks, I'm really new in all this thing of Arch and I'm trying to install Arch (2014.10.01) on my ultrabook asus vivobook s400ca, the thing is that the computer has a hybrid HDD (24Gb SSD and 465 HDD) and also an UEFI boot, I've created this schema that maybe would it be the right schema for this computer
partitions schema
=============
HDD // 460GB
/dev/sda
/home
/swap
SSD // 24GB
/dev/sdb
/EFI partition //200M
but the thing is that I get lost mounting the partitions, I also have created a .doc file that describes the steps that should be follow to install Arch on this computer,
https://docs.google.com/document/d/104q … SAgoU/edit
but i'm not sure if this is what i need to do. any ideas?
Thank's!

What does that mean? Please try and clarify what your actual problem is: How To Ask Questions The Smart Way
the thing is that using gparted i could make that schema on mi disk, but when it comes to the installation from a liveUSB, i get lost in where to install things and what should be mounted where.
sorry if i can't explain myself good, I'm really new in all this and this is a new world to me.
Thank's

I just recently bought a 480gb SSD from OWC, But for some reason when I plug it in via USB cable to Back up my internal stock hard drive. It says that "the disk was not readable by this computer". What is the issue? i have a MacBook Pro 2012 model version 10.10.2

Because the disk is not formatted as listed in the Partition Map Scheme entry.

HP Pavilion P2-1013w Desktop PC - UEFI Install with WIndows 8.1 Pro RTM causes hang

I have an HP Pavilion P2-1013W Desktop PC with the UEFI enabled bios.
With Windows 8.1 Pro RTM Build (MSDN Download available now from Microsoft - Released September 17th 2013 - Again,. this is 8.1, a.k.a. Windows Blue RTM)
SATA Mode is set to AHCI
BIOS is UEFI Enabled
I boot from the Windows 8.1 Pro USB Installation Media using the UEFI: USB Storage option, Windows Setup starts. I get to the partitions screen, remove the partitions then click New. Windows Setup creates the 4 Partitions (Recovery, MSR, System and Primary) as expected.
When I click Next and Setup begins to copy files, the system locks up. The mouse pointer stops moving, keyboard is unresponsive, and it will sit at 0% for as long as it's left on.
After checking, Microsoft makes a few notes about the requirements. Setup will not run if the OS does not match the UEFI 'bitness'. If this were the issue, I would get a text-mode message about it being the wrong architecture. I don't get that. I get the install wizard, so it is supported.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh824898.aspx Has more information.
And I suspect this is a version problem as the original Windows 7 install was a UEFI install, not Legacy. It appears the BIOS firmware I have installed is not compatible with Windows 8.1.
Will an update be made available? Or will I have to revert to WIndows 7 UEFI, and upgrade?

Hi HarmitClaire,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your MacBook Air is not charging as expected. In this situation there are troubleshooting steps that I would recommend. Please use the attached article as a resource for steps to help you resolve this situation.
Mac notebooks: All about batteries - Apple Support
My battery is not charging
Confirm the correct wattage AC adapter for the computer. A power adapter rated for a lower wattage than is required for the system may not reliably charge the computer. For assistance identifying the proper adapter, review Intel Based Mac notebooks: Identifying the right power adapter and power cord--US. Additional adapter troubleshooting is available in Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters. If issues persist please reset the SMC.
Best regards,
Joe

SP2010 Foundation Post Install issues on development workstation - Database and Services

Just recently installed SP2010 Foundation for a development workstation. Platform isWin7 X64 pro, SQL 2008 (Developer edition)
(1) Looks like search has some configuration issues. This is in the Windows event log
The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.SharePoint.Search.Administration.SPSearchJobDefinition (ID 38eefca2-d092-47f4-a833-23f8280c5f63) threw an exception. More information is included below.
The device is not ready.
(2) In Central Admin > Servers in Farm
Status - "Upgrade Available",
(3) In Central Admin > Manage Database Upgrade Status
Sveral of the Datbase(s) mention that upgrade is recommended, but one in particular mentions that the DB is too old?
WSS_Search_GHHTY
SPSearchDatabase
Database is too old and upgrade is required
Huh?
(4) Looking at my local SQL 2008 instance that SP2010 created, I see several DB's with "Config" in the name along with a guid on the end of the name. Is the result of re-running the configuration wizard several times while
I was correcting install issues?

here is question, i am assuming its fresh install not upgrade...
when you run the config wizard( you mentioned many times), which option you select from 2nd try to on ward....cannot disconnect this server from farm?
are you using any script to install ?
I would say run the config wizard without disconnecting and this server will host CA option.
from the central admin > manager server in farm...on top you will see farm version and config database name. note it
from the Manage database Upgrade status page note all the db names
now match it on sql and keep those and all other should gone now as a clean process.
Please remember to mark your question as answered &Vote helpful,if this solves/helps your problem. ****************************************************************************************** Thanks -WS MCITP(SharePoint 2010, 2013) Blog: http://wscheema.com/blog

Mac OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues

Hi,
I have a Mac Powerbook G4 with OS X installed and Adobe CS3.
I've installed a font. The font works in Photoshop and Illustrator
but not in Flash CS3. Why? I've put the font in the Library/Fonts
folder and the User/Fonts folder and it still doesn't show up in
Flash. Apparently this is a problem for a number of people see
another forum here:
MAC
OSX: Flash CS3 Font Install Issues Forum
Please let me know what to do to fix this. I need to be able
to work with the font in all three applications Flash, Photoshop
and Illustrator.

Hi davidd61713525,
Sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
Unfortunately, it looks like something is wrong with the file system and the installer can't see the root drive to install to. A Google search returns numerous results affecting various products and the recurring theme is that something is wrong with the disk. There are many recommendations from various sources, but nothing definitive.
Here's a similar thread over on the Apple forums:
Broken Installer Permissions | Apple Support Communities
And a similar older one:
http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=1203509
I would try the following options:
Try using the PKG installer. This is used Mac SysAdmins to install Flash Player within their organization and uses a slightly different installer path, which may or may not work.
Some people have had success with disk and permissions repair some have not. You can try running a disk and permissions repair. After the disk and permissions repair is complete, reboot the system and try to install again using either the online installer (get.adobe.com/flashplayer) or the offline installer, posted at the bottom of the Installation problems | Flash Player | Mac page in the ‘Still having problems’ section.
If these options do not work, I'd reach out to Apple support to see if they have a suggestion. If you do find a resolution to this, please let me know. I'll be happy to share it with people that encounter the problem in the future.

Welcome to the forum!
Made sure the disks are clean? I'd call Apple on an install issue if it's new or if you suspect a damaged disk and you're the registered user.
Which OS are your running? QuickTime Version?

Do I need to format a SSD prior to installing it in my MacBook

Always smart to format, install the OS, make sure all is working properly, then install in your computer. That is unless you like installing/removing hard drives in a laptop.

Webutil install issue

Hello,
I have a strange WebUtil install issue on 10gIAS 10.1.2.0.2. I downloaded the 1.0.6 WU version and put it into a webutil directory under forms (which the pre-configuration of AS seem to assume) and when I call the forms servlet with ?config=webutil the "RegisterWebUtil - Loading WebUtil Version 1.0.6" shows but the main applet doesn't load. The webutil HTML template is found and looks OK in View Source but no applet. The config section has a archive_jini but it behaves as if the main jar can't be found(?) Nothing extra in the jinit-console, even at log level 5. webutil.cfg is copied to forms/server and frmwebutil.jar to forms/java.
Suggestions appreciated,
Nik

Hi,
Can you check Vitual Path of WebUtil in the config file ..\forms\server\forms.conf?
I would like to see your files
..\forms\server\default.env
..\forms\server\forms.conf

I was trying to activate my CS3 and got help from chat until he said it was an installing issue. The application opens and then closes unexpectedly.

I just got a new mac and I'm trying to download my Adobe CS3 onto it. I was able to download and then I tried to activate it. I entered the CS3 serial number and then asked for the serial number of the older version. I originally bought CS2 on disc and downloaded it onto my old mac and from there bought an upgrade to CS3. I no longer have the discs or box for CS2 and so I do not have the CS2 serial number. I contacted chat support who helped until I reached the point where I could open the application but then it would quit immediately and say "Adobe Update quit unexpectedly." Then he said it was an installing issue and turned me to the forums. Help, please?

JohnEden I would recommend running all available uninstallers to remove the current installation. The uninstallers are located in the Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers folder. Once you have ran the uninstallers then please also utilize the CC Cleaner Tool for a complete removal. You can find details on how to utilize the CC Cleaner Tool at Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html.

Error when installing issue in Content Viewer

Hi,
I have a strange error in my Content Viewer.
When downloading it stalls and a message says "Could not install issue, relaunch app and download your purchase again" (my translation from swedish).
It sometimes stalls when downloading and sometimes when installing issue.
Anyone got a solution or having the same problem?
Br
Henrik

Henrik, this can be either or. The internal Acrobat.com servers seem to have download issues once a week or so.
The best way I think you can determine this is if the download is failing at the same point during the download. If it is, it's a problem with the folio. If it's not, then it's a temporary problems with the servers.
If it is a problem with the folio, there's no straightforward answer -- but if you were able to download that folio recently, delete or update the articles you've added since.
If you have no idea what's causing it, you can either start deleting articles, or try updating them first.

Can' t read disk label, install issues

can' t read disk label, install issues
i am trying to install solaris 8 on a sparc5 (256mb, 4.2gb,110mhz). i initially installed using the installation disk and it seemed successful as i was able to load the rest of the cds. something went wrong though b/c the system is stuck in a rebooting loop after it finished the last cd. so i went searching and found that i could only have a root partition of no bigger than 1gb. since i used the installation disk, i was not given an option to specify slice sizes. so now, i am trying to redo the install starting from the first disk (1 of 2) and skipping the installation disk. when i do a "boot cdrom" with the 1 of 2 disk, i get the cant read disk label or something about short entry and it will not boot. i am using actual Solaris 8 cds and not downloads. what can i do to get it to boot up from the first disk, or fix the partitioning on the disk?

I am using the offical Solaris 8 Installation 2/02 for SPARC Platform Edition for Sun Computer Systems February 2002, Revision A
Output from the probe-ide command follows:
device 0 (Primary Master)
ATA Model: ST3160023A
device 1 (Primary Slave)
Removable ATAPI Model: LTN4865
device 2 (Secondary Master)
ATA Model: ST340016A
device 3 (Secondary Slave)
not present
device 0 is the new hard disk that I just installed
device 1 is the CDR drive
device 2 is the original hard disk. I can boot this but now get some magic disk errors or something like that
device 3 is not present
I have all devices set to cable select according to the manual.
Thanks for your help...
