The methods for modifying your default system start have changed quite a bit over the last few years.  I will add more details to this thread as I experiment, and this will be my main source, for it is written up very well and loaded with info!

https://top-hat-sec.com/forum/index.php?topic=3813.0

– Actually, I just edited the “set default=”0″” parameter to define the default option.  Zero index, so count the menuentry item you want 1st, then subtract one from it and change the param.

Spoiler edition / TL;DR

[*]open your grub.cfg, but do not edit that file
(command) gksu leafpad /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[*]search for menuentry in this listing.  Find the OS choices you want.
[*]open 40_custom and add the menuentry items in the sequence you wish to have your boot order
(command) gksu leafpad /etc/grub.d/40_custom
[*]After pasting in the proper and desired ‘menuentry’ items, save the file.
[*]Backup grub.cfg to a sub-folder and remove it from /boot/grub/ folder.
[*]Also backup into a sub-folder 30_os-prober & 10_linux (then remove from main folder) which can be found in: /etc/grub.d/
[*](command) update-grub
[*]Reboot and see if it worked
 
[/list]

gksu may be redundant as root, but it is a good practice to be in, for other distros as a regular user level account.

The guide also covers custom splash screens and stuff.  Fun, but I have some other things to finish up on first

Project to resolve a hard lock screen issue.  Quite a few people are also seeing this issue over the last year.

Work in progress.

As I spoke about World Bank Group at the event, here are some very good notes about the Jesuits.  They are one of the main power families in this web of corruption.

– thanks go to: Ben Fankhauser
“The Jesuits where banned in 83 countries , so they had to come up with a plan to remain power) The Bavarian Illuminati was born in 1776 , (Jesuit Adam Weishaupt was trained on Ingolstadt University which is a Jesuit institution) since then all These Papal Jews (Like The Rotschilds and Rockefellers) have gotten all the Important Positions (Knights of malta) , This is why most researchers end up Blaming the Jews in General OR only blame The Zionists while all these powerful Masonic Labour Zionists are Knighted into The Vatican Knighthoods and are all Catholic. Its The Jesuits that control it ALL. The Ptolemaic Papal Bloodlines give advice to the Jesuit generals and are more powerful then for example The English Queen who is part of the Black Venetian Nobility Bloodlines.”

As for Karen Hudes (World Bank Whistle-blower), here is her Facebook and personal website address.  She is an excellent resource!

I recall this question coming up before but never could find the old thread, so here’s a new one.  The situation is one of your HDDs gives you the dreaded ‘unallocated partition’ display in Disk Management, as you were wondering why you had no partitions display for that drive.

You likely have a corrupted boot table, but fear not (yet).  You might be able to run TestDisk to fix that partition table and get back into your prior files, completely intact.

Read the wiki carefully before running the program, since partition writes are something you don’t want to do on the wrong drive and paying attention may pay off nicely for you.  It would appear you need to run this program sequence for each partition to be restored.

To be safe, I recovered the 1st partition and am migrating my data, before restoring whatever is on the smaller 2nd partition.  Happy Data recon and partition recovery.

edit:

As for the 2nd partition, my issue actually comes from reporting that the end and start of the 2nd partition intersect one another.  Mighty glad I backed up the 1st data partition before getting data from the second one.

To recover the 2nd partition, I used the browse option in TestDisk (‘P’ to view files I think it was).  When viewing the file structure, you can select the folder and copy it to another disk on your rig.  Be warned, the file browsing folder recovery is a very slow process.  Just under a 1000 files around 80GB, took probably 6+ hours to copy by this method.

Despite being slow, all files did copy from the sub-partition successfully.   That old drive needs a repartition, of only 1 for that drive.

I searched but didn’t see a dedicated thread, yet made.  Welcome because I’ve found some silly things in supporting Autodesk / Autocad environments over the last year+.

Today’s issue was relating to an error 29001 and 500.21 error coming from IIS.  My Server OS is Windows 2012 x64 and software in question is Autodesk Vault Basic 2013.  Below is the dialog box verbage I was given.

Error 29001.  Vault management error: IIS 8.0 Detailed Error – 500.21 – Internal Server Error

Let me also state that the installer for 2013 Vault will bark about the IIS version before it starts to install.  To move past this, just stop IIS, recheck requirements in the installer and it should now pass.  Click Next / Continue once the pre-install check is clear, then Start IIS back up.

IIS 8.0 is not properly read by this installer, so it assumes it’s a conflicting web service.

Once proceeding beyond the requirements check, I got the error 29001 as quoted above.  Searched the internets, but found most info related to an older installer or another operating system.  All in all, no dice.  Per frustration, I tried the Vault Basic 2014 installer and only had an error about ASP test failing… hmm.

So, to fix this up, you’ll want to Add Roles and Features to your Server 2012 install.  Under Web Server, you’ll want:

[*]ASP.NET 3.5
[*]ASP.NET 4.5
[/list]

 

installed.  Selecting these will also add some prerequisite packages, you want to do this too.  Doing this enabled the 2014 installer to pass the pre-install check without issue, so I thought why not try the 2013 install again?  Worked this time for me.  Fantastic!

 

Other steps I took, based off previous issues was to modify the IIS Application Pool.  Disabling 32 bit mode was a thing I had to do previously for Vault 2013 installs, so I applied the same to this install.

 

Merry Autodesking and Good Luck!

I avoided Windows 2012 due to the same crap moves as Windows 8, but I’ll be damned as there are some 2012 servers in house now.

Seriously.  Using a server without a start menu and needing to do the top right corner thing for tiles, is a complete pain in the (counter-intuitive) ass.  On top of the basic failures there, Exchange 2013 is pretty much a hot piece of shit.

Exchange 2013 is like ‘Admin interface?  Oh you mean login to a webpage for a sudo-office 365 experience’.  Needless to say, I’m not a fan.  I support change when it makes sense, but when you are making shit harder to navigate for the sake of a new release, fuck you.

That’s my love letter to Microsoft on the 2012 – 2013 releases.  Stop smoking meth and making shittier programs.  It’s not cool.

I wanted to share my encounters with Java 7 update 17, aka version 1.17.  It may have been a previous version, but the 17 update looks to silently remove any JRE6 folder paths from your machine.  Run some web-based queries or sites and you’ll find the details of what’s missing hiding in the broken functionality.

Sharing for anyone who sees previously working java applications die out.  Square one is to check for what Java version is installed and when it was so.  I updated to 7v17 on Friday, so I had a few hours of tracing out my mistake.

Remove latest version and reinstall a compliant 6.xx build and you are back in business.  I would still Disable Java in the Web browser when and wherever possible.  You can do this via Control Panel | Java | Security Tab, on your windows based machines.
