Using LVPM to move wubi install to real install

Asked by free now

I am on 10.04 wubi install, how do I get to a real install ( on a partition) using LVPM. I read that I cannot use LVPM to move to real install if I am using 10.04. Can you please give me latest instructions on how to do that ?

Thanks.

You can use this guide (and script): http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1519354
or see the lvpm howto on ubuntuforums that has a workaround that involves copying the /home and reinstalling the existing packages on a fresh install:

I used the guide and script and it worked just fine. However, I have another question now. Here is the o/p of df -h on my m/c

[code]

ubuntu:/$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda3 40G 16G 22G 43% /
none 1.9G 332K 1.9G 1% /dev
none 2.0G 2.7M 2.0G 1% /dev/shm
none 2.0G 212K 2.0G 1% /var/run
none 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /var/lock
none 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /lib/init/rw
none 40G 16G 22G 43% /var/lib/ureadahead/debugfs

[/code]

How do I remove the "none" entries above ?

Here is the o/p from fdisk ( option m)

[code]

   Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 33021 265239615 7 HPFS/NTFS
/dev/sda2 38231 38913 5486197+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3 33022 38230 41841292+ 83 Linux

Partition table entries are not in disk order

Command (m for help):

[/code]

It is /dev/sda3 that is mounted as / and contains all the directories.

Why does /dev/sda3 not have the bootloader ? You can see /dev/sda1 is the bootable partition.

How do I make /dev/sda3 as bootable partition ? I want to do this because I want to use the space on /dev/sda1 for other purposes and want to format it to ext4.

I used option 'p' on fdisk and not option 'm' above.

Great - glad it worked out.

You don't have to remove the 'none' entries. They are normal as they are virtual generated each time you boot. I have the same on my linux:
$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/sda5 9.8G 7.2G 2.2G 77% /
none 496M 296K 496M 1% /dev
none 501M 380K 501M 1% /dev/shm
none 501M 92K 501M 1% /var/run
none 501M 0 501M 0% /var/lock
none 501M 0 501M 0% /lib/init/rw

Linux doesn't require the boot flag and that does not signify a bootloader. The bootloader (grub) is in the MBR and grub will find /dev/sda3 regardless of where the boot flag is set (certain bootloaders require it, like Windows' bootloader, but not grub). But you can change it using gparted if it bothers you (it won't make any difference).

I did not get the last part "But you can change it using gparted if it bothers you (it won't make any difference)."

What can I change ? Did you mean I can go ahead and format /dev/sda1 and nothing bad will happen ?

Where is the bootloader installed ? How do I figure out the bootloader install location ?

I meant, you can change the boot flag from /dev/sda1 to /dev/sda3 using gparted (or other tools if you prefer) but it won't make any difference in booting ubuntu.

The bootloader is stored in the drive MBR (master boot record). A very useful tool you can use is the bootinfoscript (http://bootinfoscript.sourceforge.net) - it will tell you what your bootloader is and a bunch of other useful information. Provided it says:
"=> Grub 2 is installed in the MBR of /dev/sda and looks on the same drive in
partition #3 for /boot/grub"
 (or something similar) then you should be OK to format /dev/sda1 assuming you've backed up everything of importance on it.

Post the results of bootinfoscript if you need more help.

Please find the o/p after running the script. I was also able to boot windows 7 by selecting the entry from the grub menu. This has been great help !!! thanks a lot.

That all looks good.

So if you format /dev/sda1 that will remove windows 7. If you want to keep a dual boot then you could still use and share space on the ntfs partition from Ubuntu.
If you are sure the migration was fine and want to remove the wubi ubuntu, you can boot win7 and go to Add/remove programs and select Ubuntu to remove it.
