tepsipakkicjwatson: is it possible to roll a new d-i for dapper-proposed, now that there is a new kernel?08:40
tepsipakkiI mean rebuild it for -proposed08:40
tepsipakkihrmh09:58
tepsipakkiI'm trying to build d-i myself, using dapper-proposed, but it can't find the udebs for the new kernel09:58
tepsipakkioh09:59
tepsipakkidang09:59
tepsipakkiyep, had to put sources.list.udeb.local in build/10:03
tepsipakki..which was documented in the d-i paper by fjp10:03
tepsipakki..but it failed miserably since the installer can't fetch udebs from both dapper and dapper-proposed11:40
tepsipakkiso preseeding mirror/udeb/suite doesn't help11:41
tepsipakkibtw, I built d-i with the syslinux-3.31 merge I did12:38
tepsipakkiinteresting, feisty installer recognized my sata-disk as /dev/sde, since there is a card-reader which occupies sd{a,b,c,d}01:10

saispohi03:25
saispoi create a local pool on a custom CD, but when i put some debs in it, i think, debian-installer will automatically install them. how can i specify just the package i want to be installed ?03:29
saispoi need to have some packages in the local pool which are not installed if the user doesn't want it03:30

securebooti'm getting an error I don't understand - "No installable kernel was found in the defined APT sources"03:37
securebootwhy would this be happening?  Is there no kernel on my CD?  I've check the override indicies, and tasks are being added, and it looks like correctly03:38
securebootis the kernel supposed to be fetched remotely, or locally, on the CD?03:38
securebootwhat other information can I look at or provide to track this down?03:38
saispohave you added your key to ubuntu-keyring package ?03:51
securebootyeah - i think that's the problem though03:53
securebooti see an error about signature verification failed03:53
securebootso i'm tracking it down now03:53
saispo:)03:55
securebootthanks for the advice03:58
saispono prob03:58
saispocjwatson: here ?03:58
securebootit seems like when things go wrong, it's difficult to figure out why03:58
saispoyes..03:58
securebootthe error message on that one is terrible for the curses interface, but reasonable in the logs03:58
saispoDEBCONF_DEBUG= it's the solution03:58
securebootwhoa - where do you set that?03:59
saispowhen you press F6 on boot03:59
saisposecureboot: have you tried to add a local pool to your custom cd ?03:59
securebootsaispo: i'm working on that - i've got the infrastructure there, but no actual packages yet04:00
securebootyou're talking about an extras repo, right?04:00
securebootor is a local pool different than an extra repo?04:00
saispoyes04:02
saispoit's that04:02
saispoi have an error...04:02
saispoall deb in this repo is installed on the system, and i don't want that...04:02
securebootsaispo: are you using a preseed?04:04
saispoyep04:04
securebootsaispo: but the preseed file isn't explicitly installing everything in your extra repo?04:05
saispono04:07

saispoore04:17
saispooexcuse me secureboot, i lost the connection04:17
securebootno problem - i don't really have an answer for you, if you're not installing a task that installs everything04:17
securebootyou can of course modify the preseed to install something like ubuntu-standard instead of ubuntu-desktop, but that shouldn't effect an external repo anyway, i don't think04:18

saisposecureboot: have you try blacklist in seeds ?04:46
securebootsaispo: no04:48
securebootsaispo: you can specifically select things to not install, however04:48
saispoyep04:49
saispoi want to blacklist some packages but, i must had blacklist into STRUCTURE or it automatically read ?04:49

securebootit works!  now if i can just get the preseeding partitioning to work, i'll be set06:29
saispo:)07:36
securebootand it works!07:38
securebooti wonder - is there any way to select /dev/hda, and if it doesn't exist, select /dev/sda instead?07:38
