I am as lost as a goose, not sure even if I posted here before, not sure how the web site navigation works . I have limited NIX < linux> experience . I am using LL2.2 , on a dell d620,
this is the first time I have been able to get a dell broadcom 14xx nic to work on any Linux with out an after market wifi card.. I wanted to be able to run a computer as a tool from the command line, like I once did from DOS 5 and 6 with Dosshell, if I could have a 32 bit dos I would be doing that. I have a lot of radio experience I have had a GROL since I was 17 yrs old and owned a repair service. Among other careers, mostly electro mechanical /electronic.
When It comes to this Linux, I am not really sure how to frame my questions, Learning the vocabulary among other things.
This site is all I have as far as a source or club for answers . I want among other things to learn to use GNU radio , but I have not found a straight "do this" help page that does not require more skills than I posses, like compiling in Python or C++
More silly questions to come , How do I ask the terminal page to tell me what packages are installed in my LL2.2 at this time. I expect a long slog to get there but I am disabled and retired and broke , so slogging is ok. Cheers

Hi! I believe I am here to stay for a while. I've been using linux for a number of years and was looking for a fast, less bloated distro and came across linux lite along with a number of other distros. Not criticizing the other distros I tried, but I found this to be the best of them. Easy to operate, easy to add my old standby programs and tools via synaptic. Wonderful distro and great forum!

| [SOLVED] Messed up Boot Manager |

Hi.
Yesterday I had to reinstall windows 7 on my netbook that had linux lite as a main system and windows 7 as a option in boot menu. Every system was in different partitions, so I didnt woried to much about messing up linux(I never had any problem before when I was reinstalling windows).
But when I plugged recovery USB for my windows 7, and install system again, after first reboot I selected Windows 7 in booting menu that I got after instaling Linux Lite and... I got error "wrong partition system x007000" press any key... I pressed space and windows turn on normally without any problem. I had to restart it few times and everytime I got different number in this error, but system work without any problem.
But real problem showed up after I done setting up windows.
As I said LinuxLite is now my main system, so I restarted my netbook again I selected LinuxLite, loading screen showed up... and thats it.
Loading bar really slowly(6min) went to 100% and nothing more, I spend 30min waiting for any respond, error, anything but nothing. I tried smashing keyboard to get some logs window but nothing.
I forced shutdown and after restarting I went to Linuxlite recovery option that i have in bootmenu but no matter what I select I get window saying that it gonna set permission to read/write and nothing more. I spend another 30min waiting for any respond but nothing....
I though that plugging USB with LinuxLite give me more options or access to console, but now when I select pendrive in Bios boot menu I get error: BOOTMGR not found!
Now I cant install any system...
I looked for solution for this BOOTMGR not found error, and 90% of responds say that I should fix boot manager using my windows recovery disc... but my recovery USB doesnt have such option or console to type command for fixing boot manager...
So im really screwed up, and any help with installing LL again would be really good for me right now.
For information I have access to partition of LinuxLite after installing Ext2 Volume manager in windows, and every file, system and my, are in place. So i think problem is in boot manager that was messed up after reinstalation of windows....
I never played with GRUB or any boot manager, its always work so I didnt touch it or learn it so I dont want to touch anything more now because I could totally messed up this netbook...
So any idea how I could restor LinuxLite?
