cjwatson | you can give it a try - stick those on the kernel command line as usual | 02:45 |
cjwatson | that should be right | 02:45 |
cjwatson | possibly apt-setup/security_host too for security.ubuntu.com | 02:46 |

rabid_fish | question on avoiding usb-storage during installation ... | 11:04 |
rabid_fish | so, given that some of you likely aren't directly available but may read this later, I'll give all my details | 11:07 |
rabid_fish | I've got a thinkpad x21 plugged into a dock. Need the dock so I can use the CD drive. Problem is the dock 'creates' a usb problem. | 11:07 |
rabid_fish | Scenario #1: have a harddrive with edgy installed on it from another computer, place drive in my x21. Get error message 'Maybe usb cable is bad' but otherwise boots and runs | 11:10 |
rabid_fish | Scenario #2: put an Edgy livecd in and boot. Boots up, and runs the installation until it reaches the usb-storage module. Then hangs. On reboot, I no longer have a usable system. | 11:11 |
rabid_fish | Scenario #3: put a Feisty alternate cd in and boot, with no boot parameters. Get the 'maybe usb cable is bad' message again, hangs at 'starting log daemon' | 11:12 |
rabid_fish | Scenario #4: using the Feisty alternate cd, and boot parameter of debian-installer/probe/usb=false allows me to at least reach the text installer, but about four steps in it dies again at the usb-storage bit | 11:13 |
rabid_fish | so question: is there a way to blacklist the usb-storage module? Can I alt+f2, and perhaps alter modprobe.conf in some way such that usb-storage won't be installed during the normal installation process? | 11:15 |
stgraber | rabid_fish: on the alternate you can still : rm the usb-storage.ko file from /lib/modules/2.6.*/ | 11:21 |
stgraber | rabid_fish: then : depmod -a | 11:21 |
stgraber | rabid_fish: but I think there is a more proper way to do so :) | 11:22 |
rabid_fish | gimme a min to try that | 11:25 |
stgraber | it's in : /lib/modules/<kernel version>/kernel/drivers/usb/storage/usb-storage.ko | 11:26 |
stgraber | here | 11:26 |
rabid_fish | so far, am getting farther! | 11:28 |
rabid_fish | it's finishing up partitioning then will be on installing packages, have my fingers crossed | 11:33 |
