| 00:00.26 | Elive_user3_en | Look My cd is fine it works fine. I have used elive in the past the distro i have works great. I just dont havwe a clue when it comes to using this install portion. I have never seen this aspect of elive in previous versions |
| 00:00.40 | keyra | Elive_user3_en: To know the version of your Elive just see it in: cat /etc/elive-version |
| 00:01.03 | Aemy | I don't understand where the problem is |
| 00:01.30 | Aemy | What do you have trouble with? Getting a module? Partitionning your hard drive? |
| 00:03.35 | Elive_user86_en | it says once I have the installer click here. I have now it brings up my partitions... |
| 00:04.13 | Elive_user86_en | Where did the installer downlad to and how can I find it to point the installation to |
| 00:04.57 | Aemy | When you buy an installer module you get it by email |
| 00:06.40 | Aemy | No need to buy a new one each time you install Elive, you can use the same module on the same computer as often as you want |
| 00:06.43 | Elive_user86_en | Reall.. |
| 00:06.47 | Elive_user86_en | really... |
| 00:06.56 | Aemy | Of course |
| 00:07.31 | Aemy | It would be completely crazy to have to pay each time you want to reinstall elive |

| 00:08.17 | Elive_user86_en | that was confusing so how do i get it from my laptop to the other machine i am installing on? |
| 00:08.45 | Aemy | The installer module? With a USB stick or whatever else you want... |
| 00:09.22 | Elive_user86_en | can I download via email using this distro? |
| 00:09.37 | Aemy | Download what? |
| 00:09.51 | Aemy | Check your emails, you have the installer module you bought there |
| 00:11.05 | Elive_user3_en | It is there thank you. |
| 00:11.06 | Aemy | If you can connect on the internet with the machine you are installing on, of course you can download the module directly on it |
| 00:11.23 | Elive_user3_en | I am trying to download with this distro. where should I dl it too? |
| 00:11.42 | Elive_user3_en | I can, just not used to this file system. |
| 00:12.10 | Aemy | From your email address, on the webmail for example, I don't know what email provider you have |
| 00:12.57 | Elive_user86_en | Ok went to email, clicked download on this system(same one I am trying to do the install on) |
| 00:13.07 | Aemy | Right |
| 00:13.12 | Elive_user86_en | cant tell if it downlaoded. How will I know? |
| 00:13.31 | Aemy | Go to your home folder, in the directory Downloads |
| 00:13.36 | Elive_user86_en | By the way thanks for your time this is the most help I have ever gotten from Irc , Thanx again |
| 00:13.45 | keyra | Aemy: microsoft says that a folder is something between the desktop and the trash, just in face of your books and pencils |
| 00:13.53 | Aemy | You're welcome :) |
| 00:14.05 | Aemy | keyra: Shup up please, will you? |
| 00:14.36 | Elive_user3_en | gotta love the side buisters keeping it comedy |
| 00:14.53 | Elive_user3_en | Ok I am at a window labled zenity |
| 00:15.12 | Elive_user86_en | all I see is root and file system |
| 00:15.23 | Aemy | Uh |
| 00:15.42 | Aemy | Zenity isn't what you need, open the file manager |

| 00:16.21 | Elive_user3_en | ok sec |
| 00:17.26 | Elive_user86_en | I am there I look under downloads there is nothing, |
| 00:18.12 | Aemy | Hmm, did the browser show you something when it downloaded the module? |
| 00:18.53 | Elive_user3_en | I notice when I am at the email and click download it gives me the option to open or save. I have picked save. it seems the window disappears and nothing happens. |
| 00:19.09 | Aemy | Where does it say it saves it? |
| 00:19.09 | Elive_user3_en | it does not give me an option to save to |
| 00:19.19 | Aemy | Check the Desktop folder too |
| 00:20.16 | Aemy | Or maybe Documents... not sure where it downloads files by default |
| 00:22.26 | Elive_user86_en | it does not appear to be downloading unless it just does it so fast, no progress indicator or anything. |
| 00:22.45 | Aemy | It should be really fast because the file is small |
| 00:25.08 | Elive_user3_en | well , I hjust put it on a thunmb from a windows computer and am inserting into the pc now |
| 00:25.30 | Aemy | Yeah that's probably faster if you can't find where it saves them |
| 00:26.38 | Elive_user3_en | Ok I tfile what do i dio with it? |
| 00:26.47 | Elive_user3_en | *have the |
| 00:26.53 | Aemy | You give it to the installer when it asks for it |
| 00:26.55 | Elive_user3_en | **file |
| 00:27.09 | Elive_user3_en | ok I will try ,brb |
| 00:27.57 | Elive_user86_en | do yopu recommend the upgrade from 1.92 or complete? |
| 00:28.38 | Aemy | Elive 2.0 is a majore upgrade so it is better to do a clean install |
| 00:28.44 | Aemy | *major |
| 00:28.56 | Elive_user86_en | should I keep my partitions from the last elive or redoo? |
| 00:30.05 | Aemy | Format the old partitions |
| 00:33.31 | Elive_user86_en | ho do i point zenity to the thunb drive, because whenever it asks me to click ok when i have the installer it opens zenety |
| 00:33.55 | Elive_user86_en | as if I just need to point it so it can plug it in |
| 00:34.19 | Aemy | Choose it in the menu on the left of the window |

| 01:06.37 | Aemy | Take ext3 |
| 01:06.50 | Elive_user30_en | ok ty |
| 01:07.39 | Elive_user30_en | Do you recommend three partitions like some of the older distros or can I do a swap and a main? |
| 01:08.19 | Aemy | A swap and a / are fine if you don't need a separate home |
| 01:10.00 | Elive_user30_en | I know there is a reason to make a home but have never been very proficient at linux enough to understand I will make one in the hopes that I will someday be proficient, LOL |
| 01:11.40 | Aemy | A simple user doesn't really need one, unless he wants to simplify reinstallations (so you don't have to backup your files) |
| 01:17.14 | Elive_user30_en | How big do you recommend home? |
| 01:17.54 | Aemy | That depends on how big you need, because it contains your configuration and files |
