#Smbup preparing to installing hanging free#
Is this an issue with the fact that I am using an SSD? I can view and mount partitions on the SSD in terminal, there is enough free space on the SSD for installation and I even created partitions for root and home with GParted in case that was the issue, but the installer still got stuck.

However, I after swapping out both drives, I found out that the Mint Install tool does NOT get stuck when I use the HDD, but ONLY on the SSD! It seems to me that the problem is not the Live USB but for some reason, the installer is having an issue with the SSD installation of Windows (or the SSD in general) I have searched the internet for about 2 hours now but all the suggested fixes do.

The SSD installation of Windows 10 should be the same, besides a few settings I changed so the ssd was optimized for ssd (disable hibernate, indexing, no page file, etc.) Both installations on the HDD and SSD boot and shut off perfectly fine. Jenkins publish over CIFS plugin hanging. (I cloned using the free EaseUS Todo Backup migrate to ssd tool). I purchased my laptop with a 500gb HDD originally, and the Windows installation on my SSD is a clone of the installation from that HDD. I created the Live USB with Mint's own "USB Image Writer", UnetBootin and in terminal with the "dd" command, and all three methods have failed to install (UnetBootin's live usb didn't even boot!) Other threads about the same issue mention 'creating the Live USB with a different program'. Answer: This is an increasing issue with users who are working in a Window 10 OS.

I created a Live usb from a Mint ISO (verified wtih sha256 sum) and the installer hangs at "Preparing to install Linux Mint" after making sure I have enough disk space, plugged into power source, and am connected to the internet. When accessing several commands (Create Profile, Annotate Profile, Survey Fieldbook, etc.), a 'Windows Installer' window appears and states 'Preparing to install.' yet it never installs and the process never finishes. Windows 10 Home edition, Fast Startup and HIbernate disabled Only UEFI (CSM/Legacy support was disabled in BIOS) Mint user for almost a year, am attempting a dual-boot with Win 10 on my new laptop: I’d look at bringing in another server, then I’d be looking at the network environment (I’m assuming that you’ve already checked that you’re seeing drops on wired connections) I’d be setting up a few clients without antivirus to test that.I have looked at threads with the exact same title with no success for the past 3 days. Move 5 or so users back to the Mac Mini, see if they’re still experiencing issues, you could also try using SMBup (no idea if it’s still a thing, but it was an replacement for Apple’s native SMB client to solve exactly this kind of problem.)Īt this point, if you’re still having issues, then you are facing what I would consider to be a non standard network problem.

c) Click on stop, wait for few seconds and then restart the service. b) When the Services window loads, navigate to the Windows installer ', the double click on it to open it. a) Click on Start, type ' services.msc ', the click on OK.

Maybe it solves your problem for a year or two and you can begin the process of softening up the higher ups for the server upgrade they need! :)Īs has been suggested, make sure ‘turn hdds off whenever possible’ and any sleep settings are turned off on the server and all clients. Method 2: Stop and restart the window installer service. But it’s still perfectly fine for most situations. Apple have depreciated AFP and will turn it off at some point in the future. I would stick everybody on AFP or CIFS in the first instance, so they can get on with their work and leave you alone to troubleshoot! If they are still seeing issues on these protocols, then either your server or the network is the issue. Then OneDrive for individual user file storage, we’ve got around 850 macs, works perfectly.īut if you need to troubleshoot this one: My organisation is currently using a bunch of NAS devices with replication for SMB fileshares. The first message will state that Samba is not yet installed. Now go to the Applications folder and double click the SMBUp application to start it. There a load of different ways you could replace it. After unzipping, you’ll see an application called SMBUp, drag it to your Applications folder. They need a new server, 75 people is way too many to be working off a Mac Mini. First of all, I’ll get the non helpful advice out the way first.
