Root Access

For all you Super Users out there. You have backups, right?

Another wonderful naming convention "reserved” , when I'm pretty sure you won't easily access a GPT disk without the data that's in that partition.
May 12, 2019 10:53
When you go to list a GPT disk it will be tagged * , when you list the GPT partitions , there is a reserve partition first.
May 12, 2019 09:54
After the diskpart module runs in command. } List disk } select disk=0 } List partition

Too slow on the phone.
May 12, 2019 09:46
In CMD : } diskpart
May 12, 2019 09:34
I know it's probably system the first little partition. Cuz just got the boot stuff in what we used to think of as booting. You can't see the extra GPT section without the CMD , or third-party partitioning software.
May 12, 2019 09:21
Side notes : I think it is "boot" that can be it's own partition , and from there it could point anywhere , if that partition is on the same disc as the system and active , it's likely that it's all on that disk.
May 12, 2019 09:08
Maybe that's GPT formatted disk with UEFI boot stuff on , to say it correctly. I don't know right after I figured it all out , the next thing I figured out is why I wanted it back the way it was 😀
May 12, 2019 09:00
And while you're in Disk Management you can look for all those fun extra partitions that are strewn all about the place. The special partition for UEFI formatted disks you will see also. Very small so make sure you're seeing all of them.
May 12, 2019 08:50
If your system and boot are on the same Drive , then your booting thing and the system that starts up the boot are on the same Drive. I think I said that right
May 12, 2019 08:48
Probably the quickest way to see how the operating system setup the two disks , for the primary things like boot. If you are in the operating system run the Disk Management.. view the partitions and it will tell whether their system boot active excetera. With the most confusing thing being system and boot has to be understood what they mean by that cuz it's kind of reversed meaning.
May 12, 2019 08:23
I don't know what all the labels àre , But the chain is , back at the BIOS whether your UEFI or Legacy , and which Drive is first. How The drive is formatted for one or the other . The data on the first block(s) of the drive. Then both method fire up some software , that points to the operating system. I actually wonder if I missed a handoff somewhere.
May 12, 2019 08:06
So it easily works like you don't want it to , and like you found out heck the user has a hard time figuring out what's running where.
May 12, 2019 07:58
And therefore has to be hopped over to.
May 12, 2019 07:58
But even an MBR Legacy boot can have an install where the operating system is in a separate location.
May 12, 2019 07:57
And if you formatted the one that has the MBR on it and was Legacy bootable , then you wouldn't Legacy boot.
May 12, 2019 07:53
Of the BIOS boot sequence whatever pointed it ,. Back at your bios UEFI thing.
May 12, 2019 07:52
And Microsoft will do an install that way , if you point the operating system somewhere , that initial boot garbage for especially for the UEFI will be on the first disk , of say the boot sequence.
May 12, 2019 07:51
I totally agree with that , format the one that has the bootloader on it and you might not get any boots.
May 12, 2019 07:47
It's also guaranteed because there isn't anywhere else for that garbage that they love to throw all over the disks to go.
May 12, 2019 07:47
If it's easy to disconnect the drive that you do not want anything installed on , or even for that drive to have the install and updates.
May 12, 2019 07:45
But they're certainly ways to change where the bootloader is Highway runs all of the stuff and it's a pain in the butt.
May 12, 2019 07:45
So what method did people have suggested it's just pull the other drive out , do the install.
May 12, 2019 07:44
Geeky tech people like us want to make sure that it works when everything fails , which it always does.
May 12, 2019 07:44
And for the most part manufacturers and Microsoft don't really care where it lands how it gets there as long as it works.
May 12, 2019 07:44
As far as hopping from disc to disc , Windows has been doing that's insects pee ,. What , , since XP.
May 12, 2019 07:41
So what I'm saying is how the disk is formatted , or when it was installed how it was formatted can matter.
May 12, 2019 07:41
Legacy boots affected by if you had made the disk MBR , for some software did. Then you just use Legacy Boot and it works just fine.

But then not a lot of apartments are advertising for two mutts and a nut.
Yeah just try and get into the Hyatt with two dogs I would have to disguise them as children
Nov 14, 2017 06:51
Truthfully even a small apartment that isn't in very good shape would be better than these RV things in price comfort, and if you want to go somewhere use a motel or a hotel this most certainly isn't always fun or a good way to live

After miles of walking and running the dog will turn to you and yawn as if he's barely begun, "show me the squirrels"
Nov 14, 2017 06:37
The bigger younger dog runs out in front of it at 10 miles an hour. as a team we're pretty good at keeping from running into each other. This way I can tack on more miles for the young dog who can easily walk or run 10 miles a day.
Nov 14, 2017 06:32
With no backyard or doggie door the dogs have to be walked and walked and again. That mini Segway hoverboard thing can be world's laziest dog walker.

Just the lawsuits alone from mindless etana Bots killing small children would cripple the thing if they want to push this on the public quickly

The Coalition for self-driving cars is running a campaign to get the cars on the road.
They're saying that even if they're not ready now if they put them on the road it would pressure them into making it work right. Lol, as they are still decades away from replacing humans
So if an automated vehicle kills you you thank these self-driving car coalition
Nov 14, 2017 05:15
Well Apple wouldn't want to complicate things with facts

I wouldn't need the soap if the Sonic shower it worked there's something wrong with the UV irradiation unit

Yeah so my typing is not worked out very well yet either but I actually did put the soap in here and the solar
