Kelly Clarkson - Already Gone

 

 
Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye
Even with our fists held high
It never would have worked out right, yeah
We were never meant for do or die...

I didn't want us to burn out
I didn't come here to hurt you now I can't stop...

I want you to know
It doesn't matter where we take this road
Someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone

Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
That doesn't always make you wanna cry
It started with the perfect kiss then
We could feel the poison set in
"Perfect" couldn't keep this love alive
You know that I love you so
I love you enough to let you go

I want you to know
It doesn't matter where we take this road
Someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone

I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right
When you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on
So I'm already gone

Ahhhh already gone, already gone, already gone
Ahhhh already gone, already gone, already gone 

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye...

I want you to know
It doesn't matter where we take this road
Someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone

I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right
When you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on,
So I'm already gone

Creating a CD to Boot Linux Mint 8 from USB


Make a USB Boot CD for Linux Mint that can be used to boot Linux Mint 8 from a USB flash memory stick on computers with a BIOS that does not natively support booting from USB. The USB Boot CD created using the following process utilizes a grub bootloader to launch the vmlinuz kernel and initrd from the CD. The USB driver modules enable detection of the filesystem.squashfs on the USB device. The filesystem is then decompressed and Linux Mint 8 Proceeds to load.

USB Boot CD for Linux Mint 8 creation requirements:
  • Test PC with a BIOS that does not boot from USB
  • PC that does Boot from USB or can use the Live CD

  • Working CD Burner

  • USB flash drive with Linux Mint 8 preinstalled

Creating a CD to Boot Linux Mint 8 from USB

Note: We accomplished the following while running from a preinstalled Linux Mint 8 Live USB on a machine that does support booting from USB. This enabled us to free up the CD Burner to use to burn the final ISO.
  1. Insert your Linux Mint 8 Live USB or Live CD and restart your computer, booting from the CD or Live USB
  2. Open a Terminal (Menu > Terminal)
  3. Type sudo apt-get install grub
  4. Type mkdir -p mbcd/boot/grub
  5. Type cp /usr/lib/grub/i386-pc/stage2_eltorito mbcd/boot/grub
  6. Type gedit mbcd/boot/grub/menu.lst


    Add the following information to your menu.lst file and click save:

    title Start Linux MINT 8 from USB

    root (cd)

    kernel /boot/vmlinuz file=/cdrom/preseed/mint.seed boot=casper noprompt cdrom-detect/try-usb=true persistent

    initrd /boot/initrd.lz

    boot


  7. Type cp /cdrom/casper/vmlinuz ~/mbcd/boot
  8. Type sudo gedit /etc/initramfs-tools/modules


    Add the following lines to the modules file and click save:

    usbcore

    usb-storage

    uhci_hcd

    ohci_hcd

    ehci_hcd

    sd_mod

    scsi_mod


  9. Type sudo gedit /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf


    Add the following line to the bottom of the file and click save:

    WAIT=8


  10. Type sudo mkinitramfs -o mbcd/boot/initrd.lz
  11. Type mkisofs -R -b boot/grub/stage2_eltorito -no-emul-boot -boot-load-size 4 -boot-info-table -o mint8usbcd.iso mbcd
  12. Insert a blank CD and type brasero -i mint8usbcd.iso (to burn the ISO to a CD)

Hiren's BootCD From USB Flash Drive





1) Connect a 256 MB or above flash drive.

2) Download and run USB Disk Storage Format (34 KB).


Step 1


3) Download and run grub4dos.zip (148 KB).




Step 2

4) Copy grldr and menu.lst into the usb drive.

5) Insert Hiren's BootCD in the CD Drive and Copy everything from CD to USB Flash Drive.

Latest View of the USB Flash Drive

Notes

- Make sure you set your computer to boot from USB Flash Drive
To Enter the BIOS press the "Del" button on your keyboard. Alternatives are "F1", "F2", "Insert", and "F10". Some PC's BIOS might even require a different key to be pressed. Commonly a PC will show a message like "Press [Del] to enter Setup" to indicate that you need to press the "Del" key. Some AMI BIOS require you to enable the option "USB Keyboard Legacy support"!
For AMI BIOS:
  • Go to "Feature Setup". "Enable" these options: "USB Function Support",
    "USB Function For DOS" and "ThumbDrive for DOS". Go to "Advanced Setup".
    Set the "1st Boot Device" to "USB RMD-FDD".
    Reboot the PC and it now should boot from the Usb Stick.

  • Go to "USB Mass Storage Device Configuration". Select "Emulation Type"
    and set it to "Harddisk". Go to the "Boot Menu" and set the "1st boot device" to "USB-Stick". Exit the BIOS, saving the changes.
    you can try "Emulation Type" to "Floppy" or "Forced FDD".
For PHOENIX/AWARD BIOS:
  • Go to "Advanced BIOS Features". Go to the "1st Boot device" and set it to "USB-ZIP".
- If you get GRLDR error then use syslinux to boot grub4dos (132 KB).

Wine Runs Windows Applications

[The Beginning Of Wine]


The project was started in 1993 with to objective to run Windows 3.1 programs on Linux. Subsequently, versions for other Unix operating systems have been developed. The original coordinator of the project, Bob Amstadt, handed the project over to Alexandre Julliard a year later. Alexandre has been leading the development efforts ever since.

[The Goal]

Develop a "translation layer" for Linux and other POSIX compatible operating systems that enables users to run native Microsoft Windows applications on those operating systems.

[Translation Layer]

This translation layer is a software package that "emulates" the Microsoft Windows API (Application Programming Interface), but the developers emphasize that it is not an emulator in the sense that it adds an extra software layer on top of the native operating system, which would add memory and computation overhead and negatively affect performance. Instead Wine provides alternative DDLs (Dynamic Link Libraries) that are needed to run the applications. These are native software components that, depending on their implementation, can be just as efficient or more efficient than their Windows counterparts. That is why some MS Windows applications run faster on Linux than on Windows.

 [How Well Wine Works]

Not all of them work perfectly, but most commonly used Windows Applications run quite well, such as the following software packages and games: Microsoft Office 97, 2000, 2003, and XP, Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Microsoft Project, Microsoft Visio, Adobe Photoshop, Quicken, Quicktime, iTunes, Windows Media Player 6.4, Lotus Notes 5.0 and 6.5.1, Silkroad Online 1.x, Half-Life 2 Retail, Half-Life Counter-Strike 1.6, and Battlefield 1942 1.6.
After installing Wine, Windows applications can be installed by placing the CD in the CD drive, opening a shell window, navigating to the CD directory containing the installation executable, and entering "wine setup.exe", if setup.exe is the installation program.

[How Exectly Wine Works]

When executing programs in Wine, the user can choose between the "desktop-in-a-box" mode and mixable windows. Wine supports both DirectX and OpenGL games. Support for Direct3D is limited. There is also a Wine API that allows programmers to write software that runs is source and binary compatible with Win32 code.
