| cjwatson | joejaxx: possibly extra cruft in sources.list? | 12:15 |
|---|---|---|
| cjwatson | saispo: udev, since hoary | 12:15 |
| cjwatson | saispo: up to dapper we used devfs-style paths, although not devfs proper; from edgy on we use normal device paths too | 12:16 |
| joejaxx | cjwatson: i just have the the one line in the sources.list.udeb.local | 12:17 |
| joejaxx | -the | 12:18 |
| cjwatson | what's that line? | 12:24 |
| joejaxx | deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu feisty main main/debian-installer restricted | 12:27 |
| cjwatson | that's bogus. if you're going to write sources.list.udeb.local yourself (it's not automatically generated) then it MUST be correct. | 12:31 |
| cjwatson | either remove it and let it be autogenerated, or remove 'main' and 'restricted' and leave just 'main/debian-installer' | 12:31 |

| joejaxx | cjwatson: i initially did this on edgy when i had only the main/installer i whould not download the udebs it worked after i added the main | 01:39 |
| joejaxx | cjwatson: that is why i had added main | 01:39 |
| joejaxx | cjwatson: but main/installer works by itself on feisty i should have just tried the original method | 01:40 |
| joejaxx | cjwatson: thanks | 01:40 |

| saispo | cjwatson: is d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/discs/disc0/disc depreceated ? | 02:32 |
| cjwatson | yes, won't work in edgy | 02:35 |
| cjwatson | use /dev/hda or /dev/sda as appropriate; and you must also preseed 'd-i partman-auto/method string regular' | 02:35 |
| saispo | ok, i don't know this | 02:38 |
| saispo | thks | 02:38 |
| saispo | not possible to have a trick for using the first hard drive ? | 02:38 |
| saispo | if i don't know it's an scsi drive or an ide drive | 02:38 |
| cjwatson | I've fixed that in feisty, but it's not easy in edgy | 02:42 |
| cjwatson | 'clearpart --all' in Kickstart will do that | 02:42 |
| cjwatson | you can mix Kickstart and plain preseeding fairly freely using the 'preseed' Kickstart extension | 02:42 |
| saispo | ok | 02:43 |
| saispo | or script a thing in shell ? | 02:43 |
| cjwatson | in feisty (maybe not actually landed in images yet) you can preseed partman-auto/method to regular and just leave partman-auto/disk unpreseeded, and it will use the first disk if and only if there is only one | 02:43 |
| saispo | k | 02:43 |
| saispo | can i backport feisty installer version for edgy or not ? | 02:44 |
| cjwatson | saispo: yes, it's possible to do it using preseed/early_command, but it's not straightforward and I don't have a recipe for you | 02:44 |
| saispo | k | 02:44 |
| cjwatson | if you attempt to backport the installer, you get to keep all the many pieces into which it will most likely break | 02:44 |
| saispo | k :/ | 02:44 |
| saispo | not a great solution :) | 02:44 |
| saispo | thanks for your help | 02:45 |
| saispo | your project is very interesting ! :) | 02:45 |
| cjwatson | you can look at kickseed/handlers/clearpart.sh (apt-get source kickseed) for ideas if you want to go the early_command route | 02:46 |
| saispo | k | 02:46 |

| CIA-4 | ubiquity: cjwatson * r1816 ubiquity/ (8 files in 4 dirs): | 07:01 |
| CIA-4 | ubiquity: * Ship an apport hook instead of calling apport directly from the GTK | 07:01 |
| CIA-4 | ubiquity: frontend. | 07:01 |
| saispo | cjwatson: have you got the time to explain somethings ? | 09:14 |
| saispo | i need explication between preseed, seeds and tasks | 09:17 |
| saispo | preseed is the file for automatic answering and parameter for debconf | 09:17 |
| saispo | seeds is for the file will be include in the cd ? deps will be calculate by germinate, ok ? but not used for installing packages on the system ? | 09:18 |
| saispo | and what is tasks ? | 09:18 |
| saispo | if i have an error, tell me :) i try to draw the schemas on a paper :) | 09:18 |
