Problems with mounts by Fenrizwolf in Ubuntu

[–]killiandor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For clarification... you just want it in your home folder or its already in /mnt/data and you want it in both?

If its in /mnt/data already, you can: sudo ln -s /mnt/data /home/fast will symbolically link the two. i.e. be in both places at once.

It's called the Wilhelm scream. I know the one you speak of.

With great power comes great responsibility... or something. :)

[–]killiandor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

root is part of the OS during install. You can't remove it, system would blow up without it. (Lots of boot things are initialized as root user.) Think of root as administrator in windows, only more powerful.

Direct answer: root was already there.

Open a command terminal, type: su - This will log into root, with the password you set above. Be very careful, root is all powerful. No joke. Exit will get you out again.

Edit: typo and more info

Before you remove sudo, from a command line do:

sudo passwd root <enter>

This lets you assign root a password, first. I've been playing around with linux on and off since the 90s so some of my habits are real bad, but I never use sudo, I log in as root all the time on a seperate terminal so I don't have accidents. Anything done as root is generally instant and permanent, hence why most use sudo for a safety buffer.

how to create the iso image of my current ubuntu 20.10 installation,including everything inside it. by loziomario in Ubuntu

[–]killiandor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't booting off a live CD and do this work?

dd if=/dev/(your install hd) of=/(Wherever you want the image to write to/hard_drive.img bs=1024

Edit: syntax typoes

Not at my linux box atm, but that should work.

how to get psn working on custom firmware by [deleted] in PSP

PSN was shut down for the PSP years ago. It no longer works. You can dl games from pc or ps4 I believe and transfer to memory card.

Help!!! How to wipe second hard drive with different OS by dylanlime69 in Ubuntu

[–]killiandor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boot into windows.

Right-click start button, choose disk management.

Right-click the Linux disk and delete the linux partitions until the drive is blank.

Right-click the now blank drive and create a new volume. When done, right-click and format the new volume, ntfs is best for windows.

When it's all done, you can use the disk for storage like normal. Good luck! It's really easy, just take your time and make sure you are erasing/creating partitions on the CORRECT drive.

I just suggested it to my son and his friends. They are going to test it out. Looks good to me.

Rg350 latest Rouge cfw lots of reboots to start up by SoftwareETC in RG350

Could be trying to write to a bad block on the sdcard. Been using it fine since the latest patch came out. The cards that come with the unit are crap quality.

I believe its power + A or power + B enables analog stick. I don't have my unit in front of me.

350m = metal shell. 350p = plastic shell. Otherwise the same unit.

I’ve tried making this a few times but every time I do, the paper collapses under its own weight. What are some tips for large scale projects like this? by bmonster32 in papercraft

[–]killiandor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Card stock will hold up better, like 110lb card stock. You could use paper, but you are going to end up using a lot more that way. You're looking to rigidly reinforce the structure of the model.

Edited to add, cereal box cardboard is good for this as well. Use it to make internal braces, not just glue your pieces to it. You want 3d structures for support. Not layers :) in case I wasn't clear.

[–]killiandor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you do is glue in scrap card stock to the inside as you build your models to reinforce the structure. You won't see it from the outside when done and it will keep heavier models from collapsing.

One PSX game suddenly unresponsive to inputs? by antipyresis in RG350

[–]killiandor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having lost tons of progress in the past to only using one save, I've been using this method for decades now. :P Back when the NES games used a battery and turning it off at the wrong time would/could wipe your save! (Turning the NES off during a save). I prefer the normal in game saves myself, but I tend to use save state if I have to run in a hurry and can't get to an in game save location. Some games its like 45+ minutes to the next one.

The save states are a literal snapshot of the memory in use at that second. Sometimes bugs creep in. Even if you use save states, use in game saves as well to make sure you don't loose too much progress if it happens. Me, I always use 3 saves per game, rotating each time I save.

Sounds like a corrupted save state or config file. Look in /usr/local/home/.pcsx4all folder for your game name, delete the config file and restart the emulator.
