Keigo-kunis it possible to do a server install from the liveCD?01:03
pschulz01Keigo-kun: still here?01:07
Keigo-kunyeah01:07
pschulz01Keigo-kun: It is probably better to get the 'alternate' CD01:07
Keigo-kunI guess, but I have a dapper CD right here, but no free CD to burn a new one..01:08
Keigo-kunso would be great if it was possible with a normal CD01:08
pschulz01Keigo-kun: Why do you want a server install?01:08
Keigo-kunBecause I want it minimalist.. I just want the programs I pick, insted of getting tons I never use01:09
Keigo-kunalso, as a learning experience I guess01:09
pschulz01Keigo-kun: Have a look.. before the CD boots, there may be an option. (I'm not sure).01:10
Keigo-kunThere isn't :(01:10
pschulz01Keigo-kun: Hmm....01:10
Keigo-kunI tried pressing F6 to get additional options01:10
Keigo-kunbut that just allows me to give arguments01:10
pschulz01Keigo-kun: If you're keen to get started, you can install and remove packages after the install (eg. ubuntu-desktop)01:12
pschulz01Keigo-kun: .. but you're right. A direct server install is the best way of installing a minimal system.01:14
Keigo-kunYeah, I guess... I just feel like I'll somehow miss something and I'll get tons of problems later because of dependancies etc01:14
pschulz01Keigo-kun: Are you Redhat user?01:15
pschulz01you a01:15
Keigo-kunI'm downloading the Gentoo liveDVD now, I guess I'll try that. If it's too hard, I'll ownload a proper Ubuntu Server CD01:15
Keigo-kunno, I have only tried Ubuntu01:15
Keigo-kunans kubuntu01:15
Keigo-kun*and01:15
pschulz01Keigo-kun: Dependencies are handled very well by Ubuntu/Debian packaging and maintainers. 01:16
pschulz01Keigo-kun: 'apt-get' usually handles getting all the dependencies very well. 01:16
pschulz01Keigo-kun: Is there anything is particular that you're after?01:17
Keigo-kunNo, not really :) I just want to sit on an installation where I know what pretty much everything installed is01:18
pschulz01Keigo-kun: Something else to look at then is 'debootstrap'01:19
pschulz01Keigo-kun: Under ubuntu/debian, this will download and install all of the packages required to setup a 'choot cage' file system. 01:20
pschulz01chroot01:20
pschulz01Other than a kernel and and 'init' system for starting daemons, this will show you everything else that ubuntu (or debian) installs for a minimal system.01:21
Keigo-kunThat's pretty cool i guess01:21
pschulz01Keigo-kun: I use it to run Ubuntu software on a CentOS (work supplied) worstation.01:22
pschulz01workstation01:22
pschulz01Anyway.. sorry I couldn't be more helpful. I'm off to bed..01:24
Keigo-kunNo problem01:24
Keigo-kunthanks anyway :)01:24
