I have following scenario and want to install Ubuntu 14.10.  1 TB Hard Drive   150GB Win 8.1 Partition   200GB NTFS   200GB NTFS  200GB NTFS   120GB NTFS   68GB Unallocated   I want to install Ubuntu 14.10 as dual boot with Windows 8.1 on 68GB partition. Can anyone let me know process and step need to be take care for this?  I have fresh installation of Windows 8.1 so no need for data backup.  Note : I have installed Win 8.1 on Legacy Boot mode. So I think I have to install Ubuntu in Legacy mode as well.
I would like to see a full how-to guide on how to install Ubuntu.
In the following setup, does method B run in a (new) transaction?  An EJB, having two methods, method A and method B  public class MyEJB implements SessionBean     public void methodA() {        doImportantStuff();        methodB();        doMoreImportantStuff();     }      public void methodB() {        doDatabaseThing();     } }   The EJB is container managed, with methodB in requires_new transaction, and method A in required transaction. thus:  &lt;container-transaction id="MethodTransaction_1178709616940"&gt;   &lt;method id="MethodElement_1178709616955"&gt;     &lt;ejb-name&gt;MyName&lt;/ejb-name&gt;     &lt;method-name&gt;*&lt;/method-name&gt;   &lt;trans-attribute&gt;Required&lt;/trans-attribute&gt;   &lt;/method&gt;   &lt;method id="MethodElement_1178709616971"&gt;     &lt;ejb-name&gt;MyName&lt;/ejb-name&gt;     &lt;method-name&gt;methodB&lt;/method-name&gt;   &lt;/method&gt;   &lt;trans-attribute&gt;RequiresNew&lt;/trans-attribute&gt; &lt;/container-transaction&gt;   Now let another EJB call methodA with an EJB method call. methodA now runs in an transaction. Will the subsequent call to methodB from methodA run in the same transaction, or does it run in a new transaction? (mind, it's the actual code here. There is no explicit ejb-call to method B) Error when clipping raster in QGIS: "'ascii' codec can't encode character"? I have done it many times (clipping a raster with a polygon layer or by extension) but today I got an error for the first time and I don't know how to solve it. I am always using the same type of raster layers. When running the clipping tool I got the following message:  gdal_translate -of GTiff -ot Byte -projwin 410282.185971 4694950.41162 410783.882475 4694524.96815 -co COMPRESS=DEFLATE -co PREDICTOR=1 -co ZLEVEL=6 -co TFW=YES "C:/Users/FERRAN ALA/Desktop/Justificació Fontanals/QGIS/Topo 1_5000/bt5mv20sd0f283077st1r031.sid" "C:/Users/FERRAN ALA/Desktop/Justificació Fontanals/QGIS/background/image.tif"   GDAL command output:     'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\xf3' in position 201: ordinal not in range(128) See log for more details   Does anybody know what that is?

If it is, is with always a dative preposition (like mit in German)? java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: The servlets named [X] and [Y] are both mapped to the url-pattern [/url] which is not permitted Please recommend undergraduate-level textbooks on electrodynamics which emphasize practical applications and real life examples.

When Free shipping is available hide other shipping methods except Local pickup in WooCommerce I currently have WooCommerce setup to allow free shipping on orders over a certain amount. However, I also have local pickup available and would like to allow BOTH if over a certain amount. I have the following code to remove the other rates, however it also doesn't keep the local pickup option. function fd_shipping_rates( $rates, $package ) {           $all_free_rates = array();          foreach ( $rates as $rate_id =&gt; $rate ) {         if ( 'free_shipping' === $rate-&gt;method_id ) {              $all_free_rates[ $rate_id ] = $rate;             break;         }     }          if ( empty( $all_free_rates )) {         return $rates;     } else {         return $all_free_rates;     }  } add_filter( 'woocommerce_package_rates', 'fd_shipping_rates', 10, 2 );  Any help regarding this is much appreciated! I am looking for a code solution only as I am looking to minimise unneeded plugins. EDIT: I recently found this article on  website regarding this exact issue. Connecting to sql server database mdf file without installing sql server on client machine? How do I find the right size of filters for a lens? No, this is not a , nor is it a solicitation on  to backup or  and only a little bit about Where to backup and When to do it.  This is basically a strategy question: what, where and when all together. "How" is not really relevant: there are tons of back-up programs out there and they all do the same basic thing: make copies of data.  But the real question is: are these back-up programs making copies of the data important to you?  How should you install&amp;run Ubuntu while safeguarding your data?  There is no "one size fits all" when it comes to computers, Ubuntu versions or a backup strategy, therefore I've split this up into 5 basic user types with each their own answer:       (or you're running in UEFI mode!)   And as the above does not fit everyone, one for the impatient:   !    So click one of the above links and go to your user type!  P.S.

Consider $X = (a+b)^n-a^n-b^n$  where  $a$ and $b$ and $a+b$ are not divisible by $n$, $n&gt;=3$ is positive and prime, $a \ne b$ and both are greater than 1.  By the binomial expansion we know $X$ is divisible by $n$, but how can we study whether $X$ is divisible by $n^2$ or other powers of $n$? Specifically I am interested to prove $X$ is NOT divisible by $n^2$, but I am not sure how to prove or disprove it. How to safely change OS name in grub boot menu? I have a system where I am dual-booting Ubuntu GNOME 15.10 and Ubuntu GNOME 16.04, however after installing Ubuntu GNOME 16.04, I have found that in the GRUB boot entry list it is called "Ubuntu", whereas the other one is called something like "Ubuntu GNOME 15.10", is there any way I can change the text of the "Ubuntu" one to "Ubuntu GNOME 16.04"? And also change the names of the other options so that instead of "Advanced options for Ubuntu" it says "Advanced options for Ubuntu GNOME 16.04" etc?  I rather do it manually if it is safe to do so, or a piece of software could be recommended, however nothing from a PPA or other untrusted not official source (I will only install software from the Ubuntu official repositories).

But the first one is blue on green and impossible to read.  Why is this?  How to make it blue on black, or at least something light on something dark?  This is on Ubuntu 12.04, using bash in Gnome Terminal.  In Konsole, the blue is slightly darker, and possible to read, though could be way better.

How to resolve a Java Rounding Double issue Seems like the subtraction is triggering some kind of issue and the resulting value is wrong.  double tempCommission = targetPremium.doubleValue()*rate.doubleValue()/100d;   78.75 = 787.5 * 10.0/100d  double netToCompany = targetPremium.doubleValue() - tempCommission;   708.75 = 787.5 - 78.75  double dCommission = request.getPremium().doubleValue() - netToCompany;   877.8499999999999 = 1586.6 - 708.75  The resulting expected value would be 877.85.

Windows is unable to detect disk partitions I installed Windows 8.1 Preview using the DVD yesterday after wiping off my HDD (I made a backup prior to that). While installing Windows I created only the partitions necessary to install Windows (System Reserved, C: shown in second screenshot). Further I installed Ubuntu 13.04. During Ubuntu installation I created necessary extended partitions (for OS, swap and home directory - all ext4 except swap). Later within Ubuntu I created a NTFS partition at the end (partition 4 in first screenshot). This was a primary partition. The objective behind this was that the partition must be accessible from Windows.  While Ubuntu disk utility reports the partitioning just fine (as below)  Windows disk management is showing all partitions as primary.   Thus within Windows I am able to access only C:! What puzzles me is one can't create so many primary partitions! How can I solve this issue?
