Thread: can't install from external USB DVD drive

-

i'm trying install ubuntu onto hp envy 15 laptop, has external usb dvd drive. can boot ubuntu boot menu (where choices boot live cd, start install, etc.)

whatever chose here, end initramfs error, saying cannot find live filesystem.

i've tried ubuntu 9.10 , 9.04, both have same result (though 9.04 not display same error message, drops busybox). verified dvd medium, , same disk able boot & install on desktop system.

i've seen threads ubuntu running on hp envy 15 - wonder how guys made work.

wrong here?

some computers can't boot external drive. best bet boot windows, let detect drive, install .exe file on ubuntu disc. when reboot, should have drivers needed detect external drive , boot it.

failing that, can poke around in bios , option boot external drive, on older systems, not possible.

may need find way install windows, can boot external drive.

why using external drive anyway?

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
