  Problems Writing ISO to USB stick in Linux Lite
Posted by: Jan - 02-28-2017, 01:24 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (7)

I've been using Linux Lite 2.8 for the past year and want to replace it now with 3.2.  I downloaded both the 32 bit and 64 bit 3.2 ISOs and and have been following the instructions described under the heading "Writing the Linux Lite ISO to USB in Linux and OSX" and got the letter for my USB stick (sdf).  Next it says, "Open a folder and make sure you are in the directory that the ISO file is in.  Open a terminal in that directory ....."

OK, so then I went to my Downloads folder where I saw the two ISOs, clicked on the white space to bring up the Terminal and entered the command

sudo dd if=linux-lite-3.2-64bit.iso of=/dev/sdf bs=4M

After about a minute, the terminal replied

244+1 records in
244+1 records out
1024458752 bytes (1.0 GB) copied, 152.587 s, 6.7 MB/s

Not sure what this meant, I re-entered the command a second time, but this time for the 32 bit ISO and got back the same message (relatively).
The Live USB image never happened on my desktop.  The 4.0 GB USB stick has been completely wiped out and now can only hold less than 1 GB.

Where did I go wrong here?

I also tried the "Writing the Linux Lite ISO to USB on Windows" option, but had no luck with this either.  After downloading Win32DiskImager on my Windows 8.1 laptop and running the Setup wizard, I got the following message

Unable to execute file; C/Program files (x86)\Image Writer\Win32DiskImager.exe
Create process failed; code 740
The requested operation requires elevation

Any ideas on how to get around this?

In an old laptop specs in mind.

Wonderfully efficient memory use. OS + Chromium + Gmail = 658 MB RAM used!

  Antivirus needed?
Posted by: JesusLinux - 02-27-2017, 03:23 AM - Forum: On Topic - Replies (3)

Hi
I researched a bit on the web and some articles say an AV isn't needed on Linux based OS!
Only exception is if you share files (that might be infected) with Windows OS machines.

Well I'm using an old laptop that was destined to never be used again until I discovered LL and decided to run on it for it's low
system requirements.
I intend to use it for net browsing e media entertainment to carry to work etc, I don't intend to share files with other machines but I download a lot o stuff mainly movies/series/music and so on...

Was wondering what you guys think.
Thanks

Hi!

Everytime I turn on/reboot my Toshiba L40 15G  I have to adjust brightness up!
Why doesn't it save the brightness level I want, so I don't have to adjust it all the time?

Thanks for any help

  Wifi not working
Posted by: JesusLinux - 02-27-2017, 01:19 AM - Forum: Network - Replies (7)

Hi people!

I recently installed LL the install well as everything is working (I didn't test CD-R/DVD-R drive for recording but it reads) except the wifi.
It detects the available wifi networks and when I'm asked to introduce my wifi home network password nothing happens...

I searched around and this is pretty common.

Need help!

this is the hardware:

Communications: 10/100 Base-TX, Ethernet LAN, RJ-45, Azalia 56Kbps V.90 built-in Modem, (V.92 ready), 14.4Kbps Fax, RJ-11

Wi-Fi Communications: Realtek 802.11(b/g) 13ch-RTL8187B, (WiFi compatible)

Thanks for any help solving this  Smile
