I'm using windows 10 but I left some free space of about 300 GB so that I can install Ubuntu 14.04 on it , but windows is not showing any partition and I cannot get any further in installation , I also don't want to lose my data in windows so kindly guide me about this problem that how can I install Ubuntu easily in the free space I left.
I would like to see a full how-to guide on how to install Ubuntu.
Is it possible to restore a MySql database only using files from Data directory? I just installed Ubuntu alongside to Windows 7, and now Windows 7 will not boot.  When the system starts, it shows me entry for Windows 7 in the boot menu, when I click on the Windows 7 option in the boot menu, after few seconds it will show me the boot menu again and Windows will not boot. It shows me no error message. Windows 7 option is available in the boot menu but it just does not boot.  Here are my boot info results   update - 30/01/2012 I tried windows recovery - fix startup issues - that showed no problems but issues were not resolved  Then I tried the widnows recovery console and run following commands  bootrec /fixboot bootrec/ fixmbr bootrec /RebuildBCD   But that does not help, Now neither ubuntu nor windows will boot. When I boot from windows CD it shows me a valid windows installation in c:\ drive.  update After a lot of help I got from #ubuntu channel and trying out different things, ultimately I can now boot both windows and ubuntu, still, the issue is not completely resolved though.  Here's what made it work  Boot using ubuntu live CD and then run the testdisk utility as steps mentioned  Restart system and I was able to see the boot menu and boot into Ubuntu, then put the following code in boot/grub/custom.cfg. Restart and now I can see one more entry to boot win7, clicking on it boots windows.  menuentry "Windows 7 (loader) with grub ntldr workaround" --class windows --class os   {     insmod part_msdos     insmod ntfs     set root='(hd0,msdos1)'     search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root FAF0F57DF0F54085     ntldr /bootmgr }   It will make windows boot probably but now windows have a dependency on Ubuntu and I can not remove Ubuntu or else windows will stop working.  Credit goes to 'Jordan_U' on #ubuntu channel.   update Here are the win7 boot details I got from EasyBCD  Windows Boot Manager -------------------- identifier              {9dea862c-5cdd-4e70-acc1-f32b344d4795} device                  partition=C: path                    \bootmgr description             Windows Boot Manager locale                  en-US default                 {04fe8f95-4b17-11e1-a45c-909d3d25f938} displayorder            {04fe8f95-4b17-11e1-a45c-909d3d25f938} timeout                 30  Windows Boot Loader ------------------- identifier              {04fe8f95-4b17-11e1-a45c-909d3d25f938} device                  partition=C: path                    \Windows\system32\winload.exe description             Windows 7 Home Premium locale                  en-US osdevice                partition=C: systemroot              \Windows resumeobject            {8d25a443-4b0a-11e1-a835-806e6f6e6963}   Note Still, I am looking for how can I have everything clean and how can I boot windows without having a dependency on Ubuntu. so that if ever I have to remove ubuntu, windows will keep booting file without ubuntu. (weak) homotopy equivalence Tuning PostGIS for production environments? What PostGIS documentation have you come across that has been helpful when tuning PostGIS for a production environment?  I would like to get together with my DBA to setup a Postgresql/PostGIS installation that is fit for production. I have read that there is some tweaking involved to achieve this, and I was hoping to find the answer on the .  So far I have found some documents on the OpenGeo site helpful, .  And this  is the kind of information I have found helpful, this is probably just basic DB stuff but to me its good stuff.  I would be interested to see what resources have helped others in achieving a stable production installation of PostGIS. How can I replace spaces with new lines on an input like:  /path/to/file /path/to/file2 /path/to/file3 /path/to/file4 /path/to/file5 etc...  To obtain the following:  /path/to/file /path/to/file2 /path/to/file3 /path/to/file4 /path/to/file5   Note  I'm posting this question to help other users, it was not easy to find a useful answer on UNIX SE until I started to type this question. After that I found the following:  Related question Is there a list of Windows special directories/shortcuts (like %TEMP%)? I'm looking for a reference list of shortcuts like %TEMP%.  When I'm using Windows+R or Windows Explorer and type %temp%, the Windows Explorer takes me to the Temp directory. Are there more of these shortcuts?  UPDATE: . Fresh Windows-10 Install A Windows-7 laptop was upgraded to Windows-10 during the Microsoft free upgrade period when they were nudging users to migrate away from 7 to 10.  The system is sluggish and crash prone: I would like create a fresh install with a new SSD from a Windows 10 install .iso burned to a USB drive.  Is it possible (and how can) the the license-key from the old drive be recovered and migrated to a fresh install?   If this is not the right question to ask, I would appreciate edits to the questions: thank you. PHP Error - Uploading a file Python: using a recursive algorithm as a generator Unfortunately MyApp has stopped. How can I solve this? Number of solutions of $P(x)=e^{ax}$ if $P$ is a polynomial How can we prove that any bijection on any set is  a composition of 2 involutions ?  Since involutions are bijections mapping elements of a set to elements of the same set, I find it weird that this applies to any bijection.  Thanks for your help ! I have this HW where I have to calculate the $74$th derivative of $f(x)=\ln(1+x)\arctan(x)$ at $x=0$. And it made me think, maybe I can say (about $\arctan(x)$ at $x=0$) that there is no limit for the second derivative, therefore, there are no derivatives of degree grater then $2$. Am I right? After Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, a svchost.exe instance is constantly using CPU time Since installing the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, I have a svchost.exe process that is constantly using about 14​ % of CPU time:    This svchost.exe instance is responsible for hosting three services:    The CPU time is consumed by a thread inside that process that  cannot attribute to any of these three services:    Given that these three services are considered critical system services, it's hard to do anything about them. These services cannot be stopped or disabled by services.msc, and terminating the process triggers a bugcheck (CRITICAL_PROCESS_DIED). Disabling the Windows Defender Firewall through the settings UI does not reduce CPU usage.  I'm out of ideas. What could be causing this? How can I debug this further? Is there a workaround to stop these services?    Update: After some debugging with , we've isolated this to the Windows Defender Firewall service. Process Monitor shows that it's constantly accessing the registry:    A CSV export of a Process Monitor capture, filtered to that process, is available .  I’m still looking for a way to stop that behavior.    Update 2: Analysis with the Windows Performance Analyzer shows that most CPU time is consumed by code from rpcrt4.dll: Biblatex: URL-breaking not working in DVI-mode I'm preparing my bibliography and noticed that biblatex-printbibliography produces Overfull \hbox several times.  Examples (gray lines indicates text margins, red line is the physical page margin):        Why is hyperref line-breaking not working as expected using pdflatex or even latex -&gt; dvipdfm BUT not using latex -&gt; dvips -&gt; ps2pdf?

I know this may seem a weird question, but it always bothers me. My physics book (Resnick,Halliday,Walker), and also various sites never say anything beyond acceleration.   But when a moving body is being acted by a variable force , its acceleration will definitely change: it will either increase or decrease. Then there will be rate of change of acceleration with respect to time. So, why don't books mention this? What is the cause for not measuring $\frac{d\vec{a}}{dt}$ ? If it exists, what is the use of it? What is the Page Object Pattern in Selenium WebDriver? What antivirus programs are available for Ubuntu?  We previously used Symantec Endpoint Protection but it does not work in Ubuntu.
