Wiki source for InstallLaptopDellD630
InstallLaptop > As my previous professional laptop dell E6400 was stolen, it was replaced with a wonderful Dell D630 o_O by our onsite support (yeah [[InstallLaptopLenovoThinkpadT510 I would have preferred the Lenovo Thinkpad T510]] I used for a project :/
===Installing Mageia2 on a Dell D630===
I was given this D630 with a locked bios disabling boot on usb key :/ so I had two options
~- PXE boot, well if it does not work I'll use it (I've already done it, needs some infrastructure)
~- CD boot, well I try with a DVD+RW as I could not find 700 MB CD-RW, only 650 MB :/
As usual, check [[https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_2_Release_Notes Release Notes]] and [[https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_2_Errata Errata]]
== burning a DVD+RW under Linux ==
As I was not sure of appropriate tools under windows XP (yeah, got this old fashioned OS, not even sure that W7 would work on the D630 anyway...) I used another PC with Linux and a DVD writer (yeah, only CDRW on D630, well...).
I used http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-linux-write-burn-data-to-dvd-or-dvdrw.html
~- verify that dvd+rw-tools is installed, for me it's dvd+rw-tools-7.1-4.mga1 (given by ##rpm -qa|grep dvd##) otherwise I would have used ##urpmi dvd+rw-tools## to install it
~- my DVD writer is named /dev/dvdrw1 and not simply /dev/dvd, so the command I entered is : (otherwise I got :-( "/dev/dvd=Mageia-2-LiveCD-GNOME-Europe1-Americas-i586-CD.iso": unexpected errno:No such file or directory)

It took approximately 3 min to burn 670 MB on the DVD-RW, I have to try to boot on the D630
== first boots on DVD+RW ==
Just hold the F12 key to select alternate boot on the D630 (USB is unfortunately not available for me :/thanks to the admins).
hmmm booting on the DVD+RW seems to work at first, then I get a black screen (either for LiveCD or install Mageia2 :/).
I see the cauldron and the nice bluish curve, I get 2 or 3 bowls, then the screen goes black :/ maybe I do not wait suficiently long for DVD to be read (waiting for CD light to stop blinking... well I does stop and the screen remains black :/)
== text install ==
Trying text install', otherwise I'll have to rely on boot.iso (and put it on a CD-RW). I would prefer to get the LiveCD to boot first in order to have some information about the PC (and partition it beforehand).
hmmm the screen seems to get black once wifi is loaded :/ perhaps waiting for connection...
== using the boot.iso ==
Well, I had hoped to boot the LiveCD to get some information before installing and then partitionning before doing the actual install, did not go that well.
So I'm now using the boot.iso : with network install (will take 4 hours to install, instead of 20 minutes...). At least it seems to boot (yeah in text mode).
I'm using a CD-RW, which may make a difference : only 50 MB, burnt with brasero (which verifies that burning went well).
== partitioning Mageia2 ==
well, 120 GB, initial : 15 GB / 95 GB
next : 15 GB for windows, 20 GB for D: , 25 GB for / and 2 GB for swap (same as RAM) and 50 GB for /data (can be resized)
beginning at 23h45, will end up by 4 o'clock...
initial estimation : 2 hours...
waiting... 1:34
missing data throughput 500 kB/s ou 1 MB/s (which I would expect with my connection), changing mirror is it possible at this step ? (I do not think...)
waiting, eh 1:14 ! :)
eh 46 min, just 3 min later! fine...
now 5 min later, seems it's 27 min o_O
just 3 min later, remains 16 min...
now 20 seconds, 7 min later
== 1er redémarrage après install' ==
il est 0h18
Je suis sous gnome.
0h27 looking for touchpad configuration: tap for click, perhaps sliding with two fingers though I doubt it....
install' really finished at 1h27, well took nearly two hours...
hey now remains to reboot windows and then virtualize it to run under a trusted environment, add visio to convert files...
remains to be checked:
~- play a video
~- play a game
~- download a pdf
~- play ogg/vorbis music
===Some things to tweak after installation===
~- 1280x800 :/ console is huge, all windows in fact... maybe 96 dpi can be changed to 110 dpi ?
~~- change theme
~~- reduce fonts from size 11 to 8
~- ok found touchpad config for click with tap and a bit more reactivity...
~- xrandr is not installed by default, neither openssh-clients o_O
~~- I added task-gnome (only task-gnome-minimal was installed)
~~- I added chromium-browser and firefox-ext-adblock-plus
~~- I added usbutils to have lsusb
~- gnome-power-statistics is still available, not from the applet though
~~- gnome-power-statistics is available for battery graphics
~~- should be easily available on battery icon, I used it as it is more precise than a number only in real time
~- as unfortunately I've got a broadcom wifi (BCM4311 802.11a/b/g 14e4:4312) when I launched harddrake2 (from mageia control center aka mcc)
~~- it installed kernel-desktop-devel-3.3.6-2.mga2-1-1.mga2.i586 dkms-2.0.19-29.mga2.noarch broadcom-wl-kernel-3.3.6-desktop-2.mga2-5.100.82.112-27.mga2.nonfree.i586 broadcom-wl-kernel-desktop-latest-5.100.82.112-27.mga2.nonfree.i586 dkms-broadcom-wl-5.100.82.112-4.mga2.nonfree.i586 kernel-desktop-devel-latest-3.3.6-2.mga2.i586
~~- I had enabled "nonfree" repository beforehand (and tainted as software patent still remain illegal in Europe)
=== Remaining to do ===
~- mcc does not launch ? ok found: I should not have put a î in my name in /etc/passwd (got an error "wrong password" when trying to launch mcc after identifying as root...)
~- remove icon for universal access as I do not use it
~- add firmware for wifi
~- hide the status bar of gnome3 by default (I suppose there's an extension for this ?)
===Some bugs to report===
~- do not have special characters in your name (in /etc/passwd), otherwise drakconf does not launch (nor mcc nor drakxnet...)
~- check directory /var/cache/urpmi : seems there are files like ##<noscript><font p> ## with clean install from netinstall boot.iso (files dating back to 23 feb 2010)
===Some technical information===

===Installing Mageia2 on a Dell D630===
I was given this D630 with a locked bios disabling boot on usb key :/ so I had two options
~- PXE boot, well if it does not work I'll use it (I've already done it, needs some infrastructure)
~- CD boot, well I try with a DVD+RW as I could not find 700 MB CD-RW, only 650 MB :/
As usual, check [[https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_2_Release_Notes Release Notes]] and [[https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Mageia_2_Errata Errata]]
== burning a DVD+RW under Linux ==
As I was not sure of appropriate tools under windows XP (yeah, got this old fashioned OS, not even sure that W7 would work on the D630 anyway...) I used another PC with Linux and a DVD writer (yeah, only CDRW on D630, well...).
I used http://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/howto-linux-write-burn-data-to-dvd-or-dvdrw.html
~- verify that dvd+rw-tools is installed, for me it's dvd+rw-tools-7.1-4.mga1 (given by ##rpm -qa|grep dvd##) otherwise I would have used ##urpmi dvd+rw-tools## to install it
~- my DVD writer is named /dev/dvdrw1 and not simply /dev/dvd, so the command I entered is : (otherwise I got :-( "/dev/dvd=Mageia-2-LiveCD-GNOME-Europe1-Americas-i586-CD.iso": unexpected errno:No such file or directory)

It took approximately 3 min to burn 670 MB on the DVD-RW, I have to try to boot on the D630
== first boots on DVD+RW ==
Just hold the F12 key to select alternate boot on the D630 (USB is unfortunately not available for me :/thanks to the admins).
hmmm booting on the DVD+RW seems to work at first, then I get a black screen (either for LiveCD or install Mageia2 :/).
I see the cauldron and the nice bluish curve, I get 2 or 3 bowls, then the screen goes black :/ maybe I do not wait suficiently long for DVD to be read (waiting for CD light to stop blinking... well I does stop and the screen remains black :/)
== text install ==
Trying text install', otherwise I'll have to rely on boot.iso (and put it on a CD-RW). I would prefer to get the LiveCD to boot first in order to have some information about the PC (and partition it beforehand).
hmmm the screen seems to get black once wifi is loaded :/ perhaps waiting for connection...
== using the boot.iso ==
Well, I had hoped to boot the LiveCD to get some information before installing and then partitionning before doing the actual install, did not go that well.
So I'm now using the boot.iso : with network install (will take 4 hours to install, instead of 20 minutes...). At least it seems to boot (yeah in text mode).
I'm using a CD-RW, which may make a difference : only 50 MB, burnt with brasero (which verifies that burning went well).
== partitioning Mageia2 ==
well, 120 GB, initial : 15 GB / 95 GB
next : 15 GB for windows, 20 GB for D: , 25 GB for / and 2 GB for swap (same as RAM) and 50 GB for /data (can be resized)
beginning at 23h45, will end up by 4 o'clock...
initial estimation : 2 hours...
waiting... 1:34
missing data throughput 500 kB/s ou 1 MB/s (which I would expect with my connection), changing mirror is it possible at this step ? (I do not think...)
waiting, eh 1:14 ! :)
eh 46 min, just 3 min later! fine...
now 5 min later, seems it's 27 min o_O
just 3 min later, remains 16 min...
now 20 seconds, 7 min later
== 1er redémarrage après install' ==
il est 0h18
Je suis sous gnome.
0h27 looking for touchpad configuration: tap for click, perhaps sliding with two fingers though I doubt it....
install' really finished at 1h27, well took nearly two hours...
hey now remains to reboot windows and then virtualize it to run under a trusted environment, add visio to convert files...
remains to be checked:
~- play a video
~- play a game
~- download a pdf
~- play ogg/vorbis music
===Some things to tweak after installation===
~- 1280x800 :/ console is huge, all windows in fact... maybe 96 dpi can be changed to 110 dpi ?
~~- change theme
~~- reduce fonts from size 11 to 8
~- ok found touchpad config for click with tap and a bit more reactivity...
~- xrandr is not installed by default, neither openssh-clients o_O
~~- I added task-gnome (only task-gnome-minimal was installed)
~~- I added chromium-browser and firefox-ext-adblock-plus
~~- I added usbutils to have lsusb
~- gnome-power-statistics is still available, not from the applet though
~~- gnome-power-statistics is available for battery graphics
~~- should be easily available on battery icon, I used it as it is more precise than a number only in real time
~- as unfortunately I've got a broadcom wifi (BCM4311 802.11a/b/g 14e4:4312) when I launched harddrake2 (from mageia control center aka mcc)
~~- it installed kernel-desktop-devel-3.3.6-2.mga2-1-1.mga2.i586 dkms-2.0.19-29.mga2.noarch broadcom-wl-kernel-3.3.6-desktop-2.mga2-5.100.82.112-27.mga2.nonfree.i586 broadcom-wl-kernel-desktop-latest-5.100.82.112-27.mga2.nonfree.i586 dkms-broadcom-wl-5.100.82.112-4.mga2.nonfree.i586 kernel-desktop-devel-latest-3.3.6-2.mga2.i586
~~- I had enabled "nonfree" repository beforehand (and tainted as software patent still remain illegal in Europe)
=== Remaining to do ===
~- mcc does not launch ? ok found: I should not have put a î in my name in /etc/passwd (got an error "wrong password" when trying to launch mcc after identifying as root...)
~- remove icon for universal access as I do not use it
~- add firmware for wifi
~- hide the status bar of gnome3 by default (I suppose there's an extension for this ?)
===Some bugs to report===
~- do not have special characters in your name (in /etc/passwd), otherwise drakconf does not launch (nor mcc nor drakxnet...)
~- check directory /var/cache/urpmi : seems there are files like ##<noscript><font p> ## with clean install from netinstall boot.iso (files dating back to 23 feb 2010)
