System is sluggish when running on another machine?

[LL-user]

Hi Kotori,

I would start here:

• verify that the ISO you use for installation is OK (md5sum)
  
• check your USB stick hardware/ file system (Which system have you got available to check it?)
  

In regard to my first post, you're correct 'top' will give you info about system load, swap, RAM, CPU.
You can also use 'htop'.

If you prefer a GUI you can go with:

• menu -> System -> System Monitor
  
• menu -> System -> Task Manager
  

Disk i/o specific information you could gain via

• 'iotop' (needs to be installed and run as root/with sudo)
  
• 'glance' (needs to be installed and covers also RAM, CPU, network etc.)
  

In general, you have mentioned errors here and there. Only if I knew exactly why they show up and that the underlying issue won't influence my system, I would keep going with my installation/ use of the system. Otherwise they need to be investigated/ solved.

Hope that helps
