apt-get install requests «Media change»

I installed Breezy Badger Preview back in September (no X, just using it as a headless server), and soon after the finaly version came out. I don’t know too much about Ubuntu yet, so I don’t know if it is possible to easily ‘upgrade’ to the 5.10 final.

My problem is when I try to install some packages using apt-get. Some packages have installed without any issues, while a few others require a media change. The message I get is below:

The problems I am having are #1: I am trying to install this stuff remotely without physical access to my machine, and #2: at night I have physical access but I’ve already thrown away the installation CD and don’t have the iso anymore to burn another copy. And I figure there must be a better way than to need to actually put the CD in the drive.

In my attempts to work around this, I’ve downloaded 5.10 final and mounted it over /cdrom using a loop.

I can see the contents in /cdrom, read files, etc. Unfortunately, when I try to proceed with the installation apt-get doesn’t see the cdrom and umounts it.

The following is the full activity:

I’ve already done an apt-get update and even an apt-get upgrade, but it doesn’t seem to help.

Maybe I’m asking the wrong questions, but isn’t there something I’m missing (besides the installation CD)? I have a feeling that there must be a fairly easy fix to this problem, and any clues or guidance would help.

If I need the preview version, does anyone have an idea where to get it? All I’ve been able to find is the final version.

Linux media change please insert the disc labeled

Overview of the problem:

After the Ubuntu-16.04 system is installed, the SSH service is not installed on the system itself, so the terminal cannot connect, but during the process of installing the SSH service, Media change: please insert the disc labeled The problem is as follows:

This is caused because Ubuntu’s installation source is not configured. Find the Ubuntu installation configuration source /etc/apt/sources.list (note: sources instead of source) as shown below:

As shown in the above figure, Ubuntu-16.04 defaults to download and install the software source through Debian cdrom. This is no longer available, so the solution is to comment out the source, as shown below:

OK, you can successfully update the source again, or download other software, as shown below:

Ok, about Ubuntu-16.04 Media change: please insert the disc labeled solution, write it here, if there are any questions or problems, please scan the code, you can leave a message, I will one by one. Detailed answers.
After the break: «Learning together, making progress together», I hope that everyone will pay more attention to the IT community of CSND.

Media changed: please insert the disk labeled ‘Debian GNU/Linux

I installed Debian 7 using a USB flash drive «burned» from the first DVD ISO of the Debian installation CD/DVD.

I did a very minimal install without Debian desktop environment, Print server and Standard system utilities.

After installation and a reboot, I was presented with a console with the words Debian GNU/Linux 7 hostname tty1. I supplied the login username and password.

After I typed the command sudo apt-get install xorg, an error message popped up stating:

I inserted the same USB flash drive into the same slot and after waiting for a few seconds, I pressed Enter.

The same error message popped up.

I have tried the following steps on the advice of some of my colleagues:

1. remove/delete all the entries in /etc/apt/sources.list and reboot the computer
2. dmesg shows that the USB thumb drive is mounted on /dev/sdb1
3. sudo mount /dev/sdb1 /media/usb0
4. sudo apt-cdrom -m -d /media/usb0 add

After doing the above, the following error message appears:

I prefer to install Xorg (60MB) and gnome-core (400MB) from the USB stick. The NGO that I am working with is in a developing country with a very basic internet access infrastructure. Internet access is very patchy and the average download speed is less than 2 Mbps.

N.B. It appears that the above issue happens to Ubuntu users as well, as documented in AskUbuntu. However the solution offered on AskUbuntu is to simply delete the cdrom entry in the sources.list and use the internet to install and/or update additional packages.

I saw another post on this (http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions . ed-767493/) and I followed post #2, but it still asks for a cd.
I’m trying to install the kde-full metapackage.

I installed debian from a liveCD loaded onto a thumb drive. I wiped the thumb drive so that I could use it for general media storage, so I can’t simply mount the image I used to install debian. Is there a way of telling it to just download the information from the internet, or is there a place I could download the image it’s looking for?

Oh dasein, you just don’t sugarcoat your answers do you? If this was a forum where «humanity» is of primary concern you would be censured for trying to get people to think things through on their own. But, I digress .

Jekktis,
Did you also read posts 6,7,8 in that thread, update is probably necessary too?

But sure, post your sources list if you want and think it might be helpful, no need to ask first. It’s always good to give as much information as you think might be necessary at the beginning so we have as good an idea as possible about the problem and don’t have to guess or wait. That can sometimes help you to get an answer quicker.

Русский язык в Debian 6.0

Debian 6.0 установился без русского языка, хотя я устанавливал его с DVD. Но не это важно. Как сделать, так что бы система была русской?

это для gtk, а для кед нужны пакеты локализации.

bash: dpkg-reconfigure: command not found

выполнено с правами su ?

$ su dpkg-reconfigure locales Unknown id: dpkg-reconfigure

1. набираете su и нажимаете «enter»
далее, вводите свой пароль.
промт # — индикатор консоли и действий с правами root.

2. а потом уже вводите команду :

для отображения новой локали нужна перегрузка компа или новый сеанс пользователя.

perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:

так установи локаль

apt-get install locales

ага, тогда делаем:
#apt-get install locales

и пробуем настроить locales еще раз.
