Sometimes when you are using a USB stick with programs like gparted or other, you create a situation in which to use it again, you must remove it and reinsert it. To overcome this problem below expose a tip & trick.

My pen is seen as SDG, then:

$ Eject / dev / sdg, sleep 1; eject-t / dev / sdg

I have a couple of taps including a wireless Netgear WG111v3, and as often happens in the Linux world there are no drivers. So to make it work we must turn to ndiswrapper and use the Windows drivers downloadable from here.

apt-get install ndiswrapper-utils-1.9

Then unpack and go into the folder and install WG111 drivers

ndiswrapper-i WG111v3.inf

At this point simply load the module

modprobe ndiswrapper

controlled

ndiswrapper-l

and we will get something like

DebianBox: / home / edmond # ndiswrapper-l
wg111v3: driver installed
device (0846:4260) present

if we were faced with a similar error

FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.

we can solve the problem with module-assistant

apt-get install module-assistant ndiswrapper-source

compile modules ndiswrapper

but the ndiswrapper

reload module

modprobe ndiswrapper

now everything should work.

Super_grub_disk_italiano_usb_0.9673.tar.bz2 Once downloaded, unzip it, and the boot folder, copy it to the pen:

cp-r boot / media / disk

where drive is the nosta pen. Disassemble the pen, and make sure that this happened for real, otherwise it does not work.

umount / dev/sdg1 in my case

As root, type

grub

Now let's see how grub identifies our pen. Help out with the tab key.

grub> geometry (hd

grub> geometry (hd Possible disks are: hd0 hd1 hd2

grub> geometry (hd2)

drive 0 × 82: C / H / S = 31/255/63, The number of sectors = 501,759, / dev / sdg Partition num: 0, Filesystem type is fat, partition type 0 × 6

Then you notice that the device is hd2 and is identified as / dev / sdg. Then:

device (hd2) / dev / sdg

root (hd2, 0)

setup (hd2)

quit

exit

sync

Reboot and make sure that your PC is set to boot from USB.

A few days ago I "met" adrian15, the father of SGD, and asked me if I was interested in the Italian translation of SGD. I of course I accepted, and I immediately set to work, always happy to contribute to the cause of the Penguins. I have to say that translating a program is not how to translate a simple sentence, also because there are terms that mean something in English and in Italian mean very little. If we go to watch how others have implemented the program in their own language, then one is not really in charge:) Anyway, I gave my best and I translated SGD, I sent all at adrian15, and waiting for news on when to insert the translation , or other developments. For those in need of SGD in Italian I immediately made available to the newly edited by me, downloadable from here. Once downloaded unpack it

tar-xvf public_sgd_source_code_0.9654.tar.gz

enter the folder you created

cd / home/UTENTE/Desktop/public_sgd_source_code_0.9654

and now we are ready to prepare an ISO

. / make_sgd.sh cdromiso / home / user / mysgdiso.iso

clearly replace username with your own.

At this point you can burn, and you will SGD in Italian.
