[09:26] <spitfireaus_> Hi, I'm having trouble finding a list of implemented events for upstart on edgy.
[09:27] <spitfireaus_> Has network edge events been implemented?
[07:54] [bmonty(n=bmontgom@ubuntu/member/bmonty)]  help
[07:59] <DarkWizzard> hello all
[07:59] <DarkWizzard> I really need help
[07:59] <DarkWizzard> I just sudo apt-get ed upstart
[07:59] <DarkWizzard> donno why
[07:59] <DarkWizzard> maybe because I was stupid
[08:00] <DarkWizzard> and now after reboot
[08:00] <DarkWizzard> nothing will start
[08:00] <AlexExtreme> which distro?
[08:00] <DarkWizzard> it says the system has reached a point where there are no jobs running
[08:00] <DarkWizzard> Kubuntu Edgy
[08:00] <DarkWizzard> and asks for the root password
[08:00] <AlexExtreme> ok
[08:00] <AlexExtreme> wait a sec
[08:00] <DarkWizzard> ok
[08:01] <AlexExtreme> do you have a livecd?
[08:02] <AlexExtreme> like, the kubuntu desktop cd
[08:02] <DarkWizzard> yes
[08:03] <AlexExtreme> boot it up, mount your kubuntu partition, sudo cp /etc/resolv.conf <mountpoint>/etc/ , chroot to it (sudo chroot <mount point> /bin/bash) and do this:
[08:03] <AlexExtreme> sudo apt-get install startup-tasks system-services upstart-compat-sysv upstart-logd
[08:04] <AlexExtreme> then exit and reboot
[08:04] <AlexExtreme> then your system should boot again
[08:04] <DarkWizzard> ok I'll try
[08:04] <DarkWizzard> I think I jumped in this too fast
[08:04] <DarkWizzard> is upstart in development status ?
[08:04] <DarkWizzard> or is it usable ?
[08:04] <AlexExtreme> yes it's usable, in fact it should be default if you're using edgy
[08:04] <DarkWizzard> strange
[08:05] <DarkWizzard> I upgraded from dapper
[08:05] <DarkWizzard> but it didn't install it
[08:06] <_ion> Did you not use the update-manager's distribution upgrade feature?
[08:06] <AlexExtreme> that's probably it
[08:06] <_ion> Using apt-get dist-upgrade causes problems.
[08:06] <DarkWizzard> well I noticed
[08:06] <DarkWizzard> but on the release site those were the commands
[08:06] <DarkWizzard> ok
[08:07] <DarkWizzard> thanks guys I hope I can get it working if not I'll be back
[08:07] <_ion> sudo apt-get install ubuntu-minimal ubuntu-standard
[08:07] <_ion> That makes sure you have all the things you should have for a working Ubuntu system.
[08:07] <AlexExtreme> he's using kubuntu
[08:07] <_ion> alexextreme: Yes.
[08:07] <AlexExtreme> so that'll be kubuntu-minimal kubuntu-standard
[08:07] <AlexExtreme> or not?
[08:07] <DarkWizzard> I think I only got the minimal
[08:07] <DarkWizzard> I'm under windows right now
[08:07] <DarkWizzard> I'll boot it up
[08:08] <DarkWizzard> the live cd that is
[08:08] <DarkWizzard> ok
[08:08] <AlexExtreme> ok, do what both of us said (run _ion's command after you chroot)
[08:08] <DarkWizzard> thanks
[08:08] <DarkWizzard> ok
[08:08] <_ion> You don't need the live CD to boot the system and install packages.
[08:08] <_ion> Sigh.
[08:09] <AlexExtreme> meh, it's easier than pratting around bringing up the system (he only got a sulogin prompt) to the state where you can install stuff
[08:09] <_ion> Well, it's only 2 commands.
[08:10] <AlexExtreme> is it? hmm.
[08:10] <AlexExtreme> then feel free to slap me ;)
[08:10] <_ion> /etc/init.d/rcS && /etc/init.d/rc 2
[08:11] <AlexExtreme> that's a very good point
[08:20] <DarkWizzard> you guys rule!
[08:20] <DarkWizzard> this is amazing
[08:21] <DarkWizzard> works
[08:21] <DarkWizzard> thank you very much
[08:21] <_ion> You would have been able to start the system without the live CD, though.
[08:21] <DarkWizzard> how ?
[08:21] <_ion> In the sulogin prompt, /etc/init.d/rcS && /etc/init.d/rc 2
[08:21] <DarkWizzard> I'll remember that one
[08:22] <_ion> Or if you are unable to get to the sulogin prompt, boot with init=/bin/bash and then run that.
[08:22] <DarkWizzard> I've been using linux for a while and it never fails to amaze me
[08:23] <DarkWizzard> this is so fast
[08:23] <DarkWizzard> thanks again
[08:23] <DarkWizzard> bye
