Matthewvtrying to install ubuntu-server (LAMP) on a celeron 233 with 64 mb ram --- drops down to low memory mode, and then, when tryign to detect cd, i get Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt02:31
Matthewvor is this the wrong channel?02:32
Matthewvdoes this channel exist?02:56
neuralisinteresting. i haven't tried a very low memory ubuntu install, but that doesn't sound like an OOM error.03:06
neuralisare you able to glean anything else from the output before the error?03:07
Matthewvneuralis, not really, i just installed more memory :) and now almost the same happens, xept it hangs and doesn't display the error... maybe cause framebuffer is now running?03:08
neuraliscould be. were you previously able to install another distribution on this machine?03:08
Matthewvseemed to be a few problems linking /dev/discs/something to /hda something03:08
Matthewvneuralis, yes it had breezy on it03:08
Matthewvi wanted to try the lamp installation :)03:08
Matthewvhang on, i'll try the normal installation, not lamp, and see what happens03:09
neuralisMatthewv: the lamp installation is a plain ubuntu server install that automatically adds five packages at the end. shh, it's a secret.03:09
Matthewvneuralis, so that wouldn't make a diff.?03:09
neuralisno.03:10
Matthewvoh ok :)03:10
neuralisi'd hate to think we regressed on minimum memory for the server install, but it's possible.03:10
MatthewvMissing module 'hd-sometih'03:11
Matthewvcreate_node: symlink(hda5, /dev/disc1) failed : File exists03:11
Matthewvcdrom-detect: searching for ubuntu installation media...03:11
neuralisthis is after you already launched into d-i?03:12
Matthewvd-i?03:13
neuralisthe installer?03:13
Matthewvthis is after i run the installer normally, i hit ctrl-alt-f4 and watch errors...03:13
Matthewvnow its got the kernel panic error03:13
Matthewvpreceded by a whole stack of cdrom_stuff, ide stuff...03:13
neuralisah. reboot, go to the console when the installer opens, and see what the memory usage is like.03:13
Matthewvok03:14
Matthewvi put extra memory in now though, so it isnt running in low mem. mode any more03:14
neuralishow much is in there now?03:14
Matthewv128M03:15
Matthewvthere was 64M i think03:15
neuralishave you run the integrity checker on the cd?03:15
Matthewvneuralis, no03:15
Matthewvhow do i check memory usage?03:16
neuralisrun 'free'.03:16
Matthewv23920 used03:16
neuralisyeah, doesn't sound like a memory thing. i'd run the integrity check to make sure it isn't a bad burn.03:17
Matthewvok... thanks neuralis i'll do that03:18
Matthewvbtw neuralis is this a dev or support channel.. topic sounds like dev. but chanserv tells me its support + dev03:19
neuralisdevelopment only. but we tend to take *interesting* support questions.03:20
Matthewvok, so chanserv is wrong?03:20
neuralisyeah, we should get that fixed.03:20
Matthewvcd integrity checker has kernel panic03:22
neuraliswell then :)03:22
Matthewvreburn??03:23
neuralisyeah. do a verify round after burning, if you can.03:23
Matthewvok... and i deleted is .iso :(03:23
neuralisyou can do a minimal breezy install and just upgrade.03:24
Matthewvok... i think I'd rather have a dedicated iso, as both will require about the same amount of download wont they?03:25
neuralisyeah. i assumed you still had breezy burns on hand.03:25
Matthewvwhat i mean is upgrading all those packages to dapper will require the same amount of download as downloading the iso, right?03:26
neuralisa lot less, actually.03:27
Matthewvreally?? ok... and then i suppose its a sudo apt-get install apache2 mysql5 php5 and?03:27
neuralisapache2, php5, mysql-server, linux-image-server03:29
Matthewvok, thanks a lot for all the help neuralis03:31
neuralissure.03:31

lionelpblanky: you mean a frame buffer console ?07:52
blankylionelp, yeah that! :)07:53
blankylionelp, somebody at #ubuntu told me to get svgatextmode, is that correct?07:53
lionelpI do not remember on server CD, I remmember it was easily possible on the alternate CD07:54
blankylionelp, that's what I'm using, a xubuntu alternate cd, with boot option 'server'07:54
lionelpYou should so have an option menu on the first screen to select the resolution07:55
lionelpbtw, when you have finished, juste edit /boot/grub/menu.lst07:55
blankylionelp, okay cool, er, what for?07:55
lionelpchange the line # defoptions07:55
blankyokay07:56
lionelpto something like # defoptions=quiet splash vga=0x31707:56
blankyoh okay, thanks sir07:56
lionelpI do not remmeber the correspondance betwen vga=values and resolution07:56
lionelpbut sure google will help you :)07:56
blankythanks, i'll look it up :)07:56

=== TrioTorus [n=TrioToru@213.219.169.193] has joined #ubuntu-server
TrioToruslionelp: Hey, why is it in the wiki that you chose to delete the initial database?12:43
TrioTorusI think this is a bit confusing because when you install slapd, you get asked questions that relate to your initial setup12:44
TrioToruslionelp: but let me also ask: how r u today? :-)12:44
=== superjolly [n=lello@host253-180.pool8250.interbusiness.it] has joined #ubuntu-server
TrioTorusFor ldap, do I need the rootdn to be an entry in the database? Or is the configuration in slapd.conf enough?01:20
lionelpHi TrioTorus01:23
lionelpFine thanks and you ?01:23
lionelpI choose to delete to have a full LDIF import01:23
lionelpIf all the database was not in the LDIF, we can not delete the content01:24
TrioTorustrue, but isn't it true when installing slapd, you get asked base dn and root password?01:30
lionelpyes, that's true01:31
lionelpBut my setup is a more general process01:32
TrioToruslionelp: think we should at least inform the noob installer about that. I'll have a look at what is there initially, and maybe for the example we better build on that?01:32
lionelpFor exemple, if I want a o=my_company as suffix, I can't with installer01:32
TrioToruslionelp: think we should then inform the package maintainer to make that possible?01:33
lionelpTrioTorus: LDAP will always need some knowledge of the LDAP protocol and fine tuning01:34
lionelpeverything can not be done at install01:34
lionelpall the person I know that install slapd do a by hand tuning after the install01:34
lionelpyes, we can inform the user in the howto, but I love simple howto01:35
lionelpthis is not a copy-paste of the man page01:35
lionelpI hate howto that make me afraid when I see how long they are01:35
lionelpbut that is a personnal POV01:35
TrioTorusno, it should be ubuntu specific, that's why I think we should inform that there is stuff there already01:36
TrioTorusI can see of course that starting from scratch has its advantages01:36
TrioTorusjust thought to open up discussion01:36
TrioTorusbecause for edgy eft, there is a directive I would like to see evolve: authenticating against a directory01:37
lionelpAs we said yesterday, a network authentication specification is under work01:39
lionelpand will be implemented as Google SoC01:39
TrioTorusok, wasn't here anymore then. Where can I read up on this?01:39
lionelphttps://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+spec/network-authentication01:41
TrioTorusok, so with this spec in mind, shouldn't people be setting up an ubuntu OpenLDAP server with certain directives?01:43
lionelpIf you have a look at implementation plan, you'll see that the server part is quite reduced01:44
TrioTorusyes, it is quite general, it doesn't say what directory is going to be used, or is auth-server a tool that comes with fedora directory server?01:46
lionelpI do not know which tools have been choosen01:47
lionelpI dot not even know if tools have been choosen01:47
TrioTorusok, no, "a metapackage to depend on slapd & krb5" implies, OpenLDAP01:48
=== ajmitch will talk about it tomorrow, if you care..
ajmitchsince I'm going off to sleep now :)01:49
lionelphh01:49
lionelpso have a good night ajmitch01:49
TrioTorusajmitch: nice, good night01:49

atomic007zaIhave a question01:50
TrioToruslionelp: ok, so you have to forgive for being so anxious. I'm all new to this community, but it rocks.01:50
TrioToruslionelp: specific to your wiki page, in the last line of the init.ldif file you propose, there is the displayName attribute for a posixGroup objectclass. I got an error stating that displayName is not allowed. Is this correct?01:52
atomic007zaI know this is a ubuntu IRC channel but can anyone help me to get fedora support or point me in the right direction?01:52
