Hello,

I installed QuickStart as recommended. Everything run fine but QuickQtart doesn’t appear in Applications ?! I can’t find QuickStart in the file system using the search function.

I installed QuickStart twice to avoid errors. I use Jaunty.

Could you help ?Thanhs.

I am beginner, so please bear with me…
What is the best way to restore a crashed Ubuntu system and files? Quickstart cannot help because it needs Ubuntu to run to begin with, before running option 2.
All I can think is to have a spare Ubuntu CD and install from there, and then try to untar the backup and install it on top of the basic system.
Can I use Quickstart in a more intelligent/elgant way for the above purpose?

In answer to your query Barry, it seems fine now.

I got this working first time, and I’m really impressed with it. There are so many options included, that I’d have to do manually before, but now you’ve made it all so easy and convenient.

Thanks for this brilliant and helpful article.

Is the site for downloading install_QuickStart.sh still operating? I can’t get any response from it for the past 3 days. Is there an alternative site for downloading?

Thanks for your time and efforts on your great and helpful site
