Jolicloud
So i have some experiences with installing jolicloud as a dual boot with ubuntu that i'd like to share, but i'm not sure whether i should include them with this page. I'd rather not destroy this very useful article with irrelevant ramblings if there is a better place to put the information. I have added a brief note in the introduction to point people towards these fixes if they're using jolicloud, however there's a little more to it than that.
In short, to install jolicloud i had to overcome the following issues:
- failure to boot from USB with an existing bootloader (required installation from CD)
- had to re-do grub to recover my ubuntu installation. getting jolicloud to boot also undid the xwin/poulsbo hang so i had to repeat some of the ubuntu fixes to reinstate it
- restart didn't work (same fix as ubuntu)
- no wifi in jolicloud (same fix as ubuntu)
- no audio in jolicloud (no fix yet, but i think the ubuntu fix might work. that said, i still don't have 100% functionality within ubuntu yet anyhow despite using the fixes noted here, i think there's still a little more to do within the setup to get it right...)
