Boot an ISO Image using Grub2 or Install Ubuntu without needing a CD DVD or USB drive

Boot an ISO Image using Grub2 or Install Ubuntu without needing a CD DVD or USB drive Grub2 is capable of directly booting ISO images for many Linux distros if the entries have been properly defined in the Grub2 configuration files. What if you don't have access to a CD/DVD drive/disc or a USB drive and you want to install Ubuntu (or any other Linux)? Or if you want to perform some system maintenance tasks like those related to partitions or filesystems which can only be performed from within a Live CD environment? Grub2 comes in handy at that point as it would not only boot the ISO image from your HDD, but it would also let you perform an installation from the ISO image if you want to. Things You Need An existing install of Ubuntu (or any other Linux) with a working instance of Grub2. The desired ISO image that you want to boot/install. Procedure The ISO image can be placed virtually anywhere on your HDD but for the sake of simplicity, we would place it inside a new directory unde...

Bodhi Linux 3 0 0 Road Map FAQ and Donation Drive Updates

Bodhi Linux 3 0 0 Road Map FAQ and Donation Drive Updates The Here and Now - What is going on with Bodhi 2.x.y In September of last year I posted a notice that the Bodhi 2.x.y update release cycle would be moving to releases three times a year. Then I went and made a liar out of myself when we didnt have a 2.5.0 release in January. For the sake of clarity I would like to let folks know that Bodhi 2.4.0 will be the last set of updated discs in our 2.x.y release cycle. That being said - our 2.x.y software repositories will keep seeing their normal software updates through the summer of 2014. After this point the 2.x.y release will be moved into "security updates only" mode. Meaning the only changes to software in the 2.x.y repos at that point will be to patch security vulnerabilities. 2.x.y will continue getting security updates until 2017 when Ubuntu 12.04 reaches its end of life. The Future - Plans for Bodhi 3.x.y Our plan for major releases has always been every two years ju...

Bodhi Linux Nexus 7 Drive

Bodhi Linux Nexus 7 Drive So I was on the Kernel Panic Ogg cast last night (the episode should be for download later this weekend). While we where discussing a number of things related to Bodhi our ARM port and tablet interface came up. ARM hardware is a very different beast from your normal x86/64bit devices. Meaning even if you have functional kernel drivers for a given device - you still often need a seperate file system images for each device you wish to be easily installable on. Currently we provide easy to install ARM images for the RaspBerry Pi and the Genesi Smartbook - the latter of which I am actually writing this post from. By the end of this month I hope to be able to add the MK802 Ive written a bit about to our support devices as well. The point of this post however is to see how much interest there is in us creating a Bodhi image for the new Nexus 7 tablet. Ive had a couple of users express interest about it on our forums and there was positive buzz about it on the Og...
