ThemeXP without spyware
Use “Universal extractor”.
Decompress “.exe” with “Wise Installer /x switch” option.
Rename %EXENAME% to EXENAME.zip, and decompress the file.
Apply WindowsXP SP3 Visual Styles
You can get skins at ThemeXP.org, etc.
But Uxtheme Multi-Patcher 5.5 can’t adopt to XP SP3.
PatchXP SP2 can patch to uxtheme.dll of SP3.
Refuse fsck on Ubuntu
Boot with recovery-mode
#init 1
#mount -o remount -rn /
#df
check your boot device, as /dev/sda1
#tune2fs -c 1024 /dev/ sda1
sda1 is an example.
#tune2fs -i 0 /dev/sda1
0 = zero
#reboot
Ubuntu; Change boot option
sudo gedit /boot/grub/menu.lst
## timeout sec
# Set a timeout, in SEC seconds, before automatically booting the default entry
# (normally the first entry defined).
timeout 3
Change timeout option if you boot immediately.
## ## End Default Options ##
From here, boot menus are written.
Generally Ubuntu descriptions wrote first, and Windows (or MacOSX) second.
If you have dual-boot environment and want to boot Windows automatically,
replace description with another.
Then you can “sudo update-grub”.
