Binding AWS VPS IP Address with Hostinger Subdomain

By
Bind AWS IP with Hostinger Sub-Domain To bind an AWS IP address to a Hostinger subdomain, you need to update the DNS records of your Hostinger domain to point to the AWS IP address. Here’s a step-by-step guide to achieve this: Step1: Find the AWS IP Address If you have an EC2 instance, you can find the IP address in the AWS Management Console under the "Instances" section. Note the Public IPv4 address. Step2: Access Hostinger DNS Management Log in to your Hostinger account. Go to the "Domains" section and select the domain for which you want to configure the subdomain. Navigate to the "DNS Zone" or "DNS Settings" for that domain. Step3: Create a Subdomain and Point to AWS IP In the DNS settings, create a new A record. Set the "Name" or "Host" field to your subdomain (e.g., subdomain.yourdomain.com ). Set the "Points to" or "Value" field to your AWS IP address. Set the TTL (Time to Live) to the default value...

ASIC - Remove System Reserved Partition (Solved)

Image
By

This blogpost is about the solution of system reserved partition which is causing trouble in creating primary workable partition in your Windows 10 and Windows 11 machine.

Problem Statement

I was trying to install Ubuntu in dual boot configuration alongside Windows 10 which was already installed on my Dell Latitude 3340 laptop. As soon as I reached the option of hard drive selection, Ubuntu showed "unusable space" at hard disk and upon searching over google, I came to know that that there can only be 3 Primary Partitions along with 128 logical partitions on a hard drive or there can be only 4 primary partitions at a hard drive and the remaining space would be considered as "unusable space" and cannot be used unless you merge it to one of your existing partitions.

Findings and Way Forward

I cancelled the installation and booted into the Windows 10 where upon opening the Computer Management and then Disk Management was able to see the 3 primary partitions (C, Recovery Partition and System Reserved) as shown in the picture below:

Disk Management Tool in Windows 10
Disk Management Tool in Windows 10

I wanted to know what each partition was doing there. C drive makes sense as it contains all my data and the Status Field also shows that it is a primary partition also containing Boot, Page File and Crash Dump. Now see the picture, there are another couple of partitions, Recovery Partition and Reserved partition. I assigned drive letter to the System Reserved partition and there was boot information available, which clearly identifies that if we delete this partition then our machine will not be able to boot into the Windows anymore and we may also lose all the data available in our C Drive. So the next option was to look into the details of Recovery Partition. I tried to right click on the partition to assign it a drive letter but I was not allowed by the Windows. So I thought why don't we delete this partition somehow and then I will be able to create 2 primary partitions for the installation of Ubuntu in dual boot configuration as desired.

I searched the google to look for purpose of Recovery Partition and if it is not essential then remove it to move forward with my Ubuntu Installation in dual boot configuration. Upon searching over google, I came across multiple advises which more or less stated similar argument which encouraged me to go ahead and remove this Recovery Partition. The statement is as under:

"When creating a recovery partition for Windows, it's best to store it on an external drive, in case something happens to your computer. After saving it somewhere else, you can delete the recovery partition from your PC to free up space."

Solution Steps

Here are the steps I followed to get rid of the Recovery Partition from my machine.

1. Search Windows Power Shell on Windows Find Field as shown in the picture below:

Search Windows Power Shell in Windows 10
Search Windows Power Shell in Windows 10

2. Select "Run as Administrator" option to run the Power Shell.
3. Type "diskpart" and press enter. (As a result, you will see number of physical hard disks in the machine) as shown in the picture below:

4. Select your active disk, like in my case it is Disk 0 using "Select Disk 0", result will be as shown in picture below:

5. Now type "List Partition" and press enter. (This will show all partitions available on your selected disk). Following is the result in my case as shown in picture below:

6. In my case as you can see in the picture 1 shows recovery partition of size 534 MBs and in the picture above the partition no 3 is the recovery partition which is required to be removed. Now type "Select Partition #" in my case it would be "Select Partition 3" and press enter. You will receive message "Partition 3 is now the selected partition.".

7. now type "Delete Partition Override" and press enter. The selected partition will be deleted and following will be the result of this command as shown in picture.

Now you are all set as the desired partition has been deleted in above 7 simple steps.

I hope you will find this blogpost helpful. Kindly comment your point of view or suggestions.

ASIC - Steve jobs Quote About Last Day

By
"IF TODAY WERE THE LAST DAY OF YOUR LIFE, WOULD YOU WANTO TO DO WHAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO DO TODAY?" Steve Jobs Quote about Death This is very strong quote by Steve Jobs and I would confess that it pinched me, and it would not be exaggeration if I say that it turned my thoughts upside down. Imagine being alive for very brief moment or someday you get to know that it's going to be the last day of your life, would you really follow the routine life? Ask yourself, really you will get up and go to your daily tasks or jobs or study or whatever you do; would you really continue to do it? I don't think so. At least in my case, I would never be going to do my routine tasks. Let's first think about the quotation itself and try to understand motive of Steve Jobs behind this quotation here. Steve Jobs was suffering from Pancreatic Cancer, and he knew it very well that he was about to die soon. If we keep this factor in mind, then it would be very easy to understand this quotatio...

ASIC - Law Passed Ban Quran Burning

By
Denmark's parliament has passed a bill that makes it illegal to publicly desecrate the Quran or other holy texts. The decision comes in the wake of protests in Muslim countries over the defiling of Islam's sacred book, which raised security concerns. The bill prohibits "indecent treatment of writings with significant religious importance for a recognized religious community" and was passed with 94 votes in favor and 77 against in the 179-seat Folketing on Thursday.  In practical terms, it will be illegal to burn, tear, or otherwise deface holy texts in public or in recordings intended for widespread distribution. Those who violate the law risk a fine or up to two years in prison. Before it takes effect, Queen Margrethe needs to sign it officially, which is expected to happen this month. The purpose of the law is to counteract "the systematic mockery" that, among other things, has contributed to increasing the risk of terrorism in Denmark, the Ministry of Jus...
