Thread: Urgent- Need help removing grub - USB installation gone wrong

-

let me set scene- friend told me how install ubuntu onto usb flash drive , carry around own os in pocket. got home, ran ubuntu live cd, , when asked me wanted install it, selected 16gb flash drive. installed fine , re booted laptop. after normal asus screen flashed past, expected windows boot loader pop usual (long story short, didnt uninstall vista whenever booted wbl popped , asked 1 wanted run -even though ran win7 nomatter what) instead grub (grub 2 beta 4 memory) pops , gives me selection- ubuntu @ top, disk checkers in middle , windows 7 boot loader @ bottom. if select ubuntu, loads ubuntu usb. i pick win7 loader, then it runs boot loader usual. if there no usb in port, "grub rescue failed - drive not exist" (that not right).

notes: after abomination on usb, decided still wanted ubuntu on actual computer. time ran installer in windows , worked fine. next part quite interesting. told before if select win 7 loader first grub, wbl (windows boot loader) pops usual. after installed ubuntu in windows there ubuntu option in wbl. if select it, grub pops up. not have problem this- first, usb grub want gone.

not want have put usb in every time boot, or wait grub load. want rid of grub @ start, can wbl without usb inserted or grub popping up. although prefer if neither ubuntu got deleted (usb or internal), if must go, remove them.

ok guys time put helping me, of appreciated.

esp8266 (nodemcu 0.9) client.write très lent ???

bonjour à tous, j'essaie d'établir une communication entre une carte nodemcu exp8266 et mon pc en wifi via les sockets wifi. cela fonctionne plutôt bien mais le problème vient de la lenteur des instructions liés à l'écriture : par exemple client.write(buf) qui s'exécute en 200ms et est donc bloquante. comment peut on faire pour réduire ce temps d'écriture car c'est vraiment handicapant. merci a+ antoconde vous êtes sous windows? si oui c'est sans doute dû aux delayed acks quote if make network trace network sniffer such microsoft network monitor, tcp server sends tcp ack segment last tcp segment in tcp data stream in delayed acknowledgement timer (also known delayed ack timer). default, windows operating systems, value timer 200 milliseconds (ms). faut éventuellement gérer l'agrégagtion d'ack dans votre code pc en contournant les infos systèmes. ça améliorera un peu les choses - mais le problème est côté pc pas esp (pa
