Linux Repair in Navan

mukki

Woman rang me today desperate to find someone who could repair a linux pc thats not booting


her son uses it remotely from another country and she says he needs it working


anyone interested in repairing (not rebuilding) a pc with linux installed in navan???

djmarkus

is this a server or a desktop machine?

not booting?

take out floppy disk, CD out of drive, if any usb storage devices are attached unplug them too.

start with the simple stuff.

thanks for the replys guys, but i have refused to go near the pc as i have had very few dealings with linux, i am looking for someone willing to help out a person in navan with a linux problem, you can arrange a price before hand

I'm not far away, just beside Tara.
I can't make it before Thursday, but if she's still stuck then,
get in touch.

mods, sorry if this is against forum rules, but I doubt I'd find a linux guru anywhere else

I checked this out before posting myself in a similar situation
a few years back, and it seems OK as a one off anyway.
Some form of statement from the mods would be a good idea.
Maybe replace one of the ancient stickies :-)

I'm sure it's fine. Can't see anyone getting cranky about it tbh.
