CharlieSuHi, yall.. I've found an error in the documentation12:17
CharlieSuAn entire section is wrong actually12:18
stelisEeek.12:18
stelisDo you have a link?12:19
CharlieSuyes..  I posted on the forums but nobody has said anything..  it has been bothering me bigtime.. here is the link:12:21

LaserJockhmm12:23
stelisFWIW, I beleive that that feature is inherited from Debian, so it sounds odd that it's not in the Ubuntu version of the installer12:23
LaserJockI'm not sure where we picked up the installation guide from12:23
CharlieSuya..  makes me sad12:24
CharlieSui want that feature bigtime12:24
stelisHave you checked Launchpad?12:24
stelisIt could be that the feature was pulled from Edgy for a technical reason.12:25
Burgworkubiquity doesn't support raid or encryption yet12:25
Burgworkmight do in Feisty cycle, but is unlikely to12:25
Burgworkhowever, the alternate installer does12:25
LaserJockBurgwork: but the installation guide is for the alternate installer12:26
Burgworkthen it should work12:26

CharlieSustelis: no, how can I find that on launchpad?  Also, it isn't on 6.06 or 6.1012:30

fumbalahhow good is the ntfs support in ubuntu?12:31
stelisCharlieSu: The main page is here: https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+bugs12:32
fumbalahCause i'm going to put it on my server if the support is half decent12:33
stelisI'm curious - why do you need to read NTFS on a server?12:35
CharlieSustelis: how can I find out what that feature is called so that I can request it.. I want to encrypt for my laptop..  12:35
stelisCharlieSu: I've just done a couple of searches for LUKS and cryptsetup, and people seem to be using these features.12:36
stelisPerhaps ask on #ubuntu how people are setting up encryption right now12:36
CharlieSustelis: i've tried.. nobody responds..  I really wanted to do it straight from the CD.. That would have been a great feature..12:37
fumbalahstelis: I need to be able to move a ton of Mp3's from an NTFS drive12:39
stelisAh. I think that read support works out of the box, so this should be OK.12:40
stelisCharlieSu: Perhaps try the Debian Etch installer.12:42
stelisIt's the same software as the Ubuntu Alternate CD, I think.12:43
CharlieSustelis: but would that install Debian or ubuntu?12:43
Burgworkdebian12:43
Burgworkthe ubuntu alternate installer uses debian-installer12:43
CharlieSuBurgwork: but it dosn't have the encryption feature 12:44
stelisI was thinking that you could try it and see if there is difference12:44
BurgworkCharlieSu: have you gone looking?12:44
CharlieSuBurgwork: i've tried it with 6.06 and 6.1012:44
Burgworkhmm12:44
CharlieSuBurgwork: the encryption in the Ubuntu docs looks like it was copied and pasted from somewhere else.. Because it doesn't exist12:45
CharlieSuBurgwork: do you want the URL I'm talking about?12:45
Burgworkyep12:45
CharlieSuhttps://help.ubuntu.com/6.10/ubuntu/installation-guide/i386/module-details.html#partman-crypto12:45
Burgworkif Debian already has it, it is a matter of a  bug report12:45
Burgworkyes, that is upstreams help12:46
Burgworkwhere upstream==debian-installer12:46
CharlieSuBurgwork: I'm not sure I understand what upstream is.. Is it on the alternate CD?12:46
Burgworksorry, upstream is a generic term for the people who original produced teh software, in this case debian12:47
CharlieSuso do you think this is something that was left out on purpose?  or something that was accidentally left out?12:49
Burgworklikely an accident, or maybe that part not merged12:52
BurgworkI would ask Kamion (also known as cjwatson), he is a d-i and ubiquity author12:52
CharlieSuBurgwork: thanks.12:53
CharlieSuI really hope it gets fixed.. That would be awesome to have support like that built in12:54
CharlieSui found a great link..  https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/3932601:00

CharlieSuyep01:01
stelisubugtu is a bot :)01:02
CharlieSui know...  just found out01:02
stelisThat threw me the first time as well :)01:03
CharlieSustelis: is it possible to use another distro like debian to install ubuntu with this feature.. 01:03
stelisMany of the packages have differences.01:04
stelisBut Etch is fairly up to date, so if you really want the feature you could get it that way.01:05
stelis(By installing Debian rather than Ubuntu)01:07
CharlieSustelis: i want to install with the debian CD but use Ubuntu.. is that possible?01:30
