Hi !
I used Win7 and Suse, but now Win7 was exhausted by virus and I’m going to use only Suse. DO you know how to install Suse for my computer such that use only Suse < Del win7> . If I do that so I have to coppy all my datas ??? and how should I create partition ? Plz help me !
Hi, a warm welcome to the forums.
If I understand well, you want to remove Win7 from your system, yet keep the data stored under Win7. And openSUSE is already installed. If so, there would be no reason to reinstall.
Point is, that you’d better take care of the virus first before you start copying data to a new place on your openSUSE. A way to do so, is to put the data on an external disk, connect that to a PC with a good, up to date anti virus program, clean it. That would give you a clean backup of your data.
Next we will help you to remove Win7 and it’s traces in your bootloader etc. To do so, we will need some output of your openSUSE. Open a terminal window, invoke commands below and post output here. Do:
fdisk -l
cat /etc/fstab
Thanks ! So the first step I have to coppy all datas and clean them, but then as you said "Next we will help you to remove Win7 and it’s traces in your bootloader etc. To do so, we will need some output of your openSUSE. Open a terminal window, invoke commands below and post output here. Do:
Code:
fdisk -l
cat /etc/fstab "
I don’t know how to do this . Why we need some output of my openSUSE ? what’re they ? Plz tell me more , I’m just a newbie. Anyway thanks for your help
These are commands. We appreciate when you do not type every command that you find somewhere on the internet, or even on these Forums without a certain suspicion. To find out what a command might do you should consult its documentation. Documentation about a command on a Unix/Linux system is most often fount by consulting their man page on your system (but these man pages are also to be found on the internet).
Thus to know more about the command fdisk, do:
man fdisk
and to know more about cat, do
man cat
and to know more about the /etc/fstab configuration file, do:
man fstab
I know about the commands not much, i’ll try ! Thanks alot:)!
Hit Alt-F2, type ‘konsole’ in the box and hit Enter. A terminal window is what comes up. Type the commands one by one, followed by Enter. That will return some output, which we have to see to help you.
