SAVING
DETAILS FOR BUGREPORT |
|
When clicking on "Save Details", you are
asked where to save the file : |
|
Here are several ways to get the file out of the environment. We will discuss the more common ways, copy to floppy, usbstick and harddisk. |
|
First you need to open a terminal; DON'T CLOSE the GParted window! |
|
Copying
to floppy disk |
|
root@GParted:~# mkdir
/tmp/floppy
root@GParted:~# mount /dev/fd0 /tmp/floppy root@GParted:~# cp gparted_details.htm /tmp/floppy root@GParted:~# umount /tmp/floppy root@GParted:~# ### If there is an error, or if there is no /dev/fd0, just do the following : root@GParted:~# modprobe floppy ### And then execute the already described steps |
|
Copying
to usbstick |
|
root@GParted:~#
fdisk -l | grep sd
Disk /dev/sda: 131 MB, 131072000 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 15 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 1 15 120456 b W95 FAT32 root@GParted:~# |
|
It may return more than
one sd* device, if you have sata or scsi drives ; but when you look
at the size, you can surely find the right device for your usbstick.
Here it is /dev/sda, and the partition on which we will copy the file,
is sda1.
So just do the following : |
|
root@GParted:~#
mkdir /tmp/usb
root@GParted:~# mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/usb/ root@GParted:~# cp gparted_details.htm /tmp/usb/ root@GParted:~# umount /tmp/usb root@GParted:~# |
|
Now, you can exit from
the terminal with a ctrl-d, and exit from GParted and reboot your machine.
|
|
Copying to hard drive parition It is exactly the same as for an usbstick, but you can chose the partition in the GParted window! Imagine we decide to mount /dev/hda3 (which is the "/" partition) and to copy the gparted_details.htm to it: |
|
root@GParted:~#
mkdir /tmp/hda
root@GParted:~# mount /dev/hda3 /tmp/hda/ root@GParted:~# cp gparted_details.htm /tmp/hda3/home/<your-path>/Desktop/ root@GParted:~# umount /tmp/hda/ root@GParted:~# |
|
You may prefer to write to ntfs partition! Imagine we have an NTFS partition hda1 : | |
root@GParted:~#
mkdir /tmp/ntfs root@GParted:~# ntfs-3g /dev/hda1 /tmp/ntfs root@GParted:~# cp gparted_details.htm /tmp/hda1/home/<your-path>/Desktop/ root@GParted:~# umount /tmp/ntfs root@GParted:~# |
|
Everything is done, and you can close the terminal (ctrl d) and reboot your machine! |
|
Doing screenshots If you need or want to make a screenshot of the GParted window, just open a terminal and run the next command: |
|
root@GParted:~# xwd > gparted.dmp | |
Then, switch to the GParted window using the alt+tab keys, and click on the GParted window. It will creat a gparted.dmp file in /root. And you may copy it to any drive executing the already described steps. DMP files can be opened with gimp or any imageviewer. |
