xivulonHi evand have you started working on the installer for windows?11:41
xyzzhi12:03
xyzzcan i somwhow manage to skip root partition format checking?12:04
xyzzi already tryed to comment out that parts of code in ubiquity, but id doesn't seem to do any difference12:04
cjwatsonxyzz: what release of Ubuntu?12:04
xyzz7.0412:04
cjwatsonxyzz: ok, what exactly is going wrong?12:05
xyzzok, i have already partioned system, and the partition i want to use as '/' already contains some data, but instaler wont continue, util i mark that as "format"12:06
cjwatsonthat's correct, and it really means it12:06
cjwatsonthat check is there because I got hundreds of bugs about various exciting kinds of breakage that happen when the check is bypassed12:06
xyzzi know :]  but that is not something i want12:07
cjwatsonxyzz: you can remove /lib/partman/check.d/12system_partitions_formatted; just don't even think about filing a bug if it goes wrong :)12:07
xyzzwhen i changed validation.py, while running from instalation media, it just doesnt made any diffenrence12:07
cjwatsonvalidation.py is only used for the old advanced partitioner, which is mostly dead12:08
xyzzah, so thats why ... :] 12:08
xyzzthanx, i will try it12:09
cjwatsonplease back up that data first if it's at all important12:09
xyzzi just dont have any place to backup12:11
xyzzdirectory is set to 000 and also may not conflict with any other12:11
xyzzand this way of upgrading i am using since 5.0412:12
cjwatsonwell, 5.04 didn't contain ubiquity, so you can't have been using ubiquity to do it back then12:12
cjwatsonI simply cannot offer any guarantee and cannot be held responsible if it goes wrong, that's all12:13
cjwatsonwe recommend using the upgrade tool instead12:13
xyzzyes, i know12:16
xyzzbut i dont think, that thare is anything, that can go wrong, just because of that :] 12:17
cjwatsonwell, don't say I didn't try to warn you12:19
xivuloncjwatson, how is the development of the windows installer organized? what branches are used (other than ubiquity I assume)? I have almost finished with wubi and can now dedicate more time to the project12:29
cjwatsonxivulon: http://wiki.ubuntu.com/InstallerDevelopment may help as far as the code into which lupin will need to be merged is concerned12:29
cjwatsonubiquity's a much later step12:30
cjwatson(well, aside from developing ubiquity-automation, which needs to happen in parallel)12:30
xivulonIn the blueprint I have split down the work to do, and probably there port is not going to be that heavy12:31
xivuloncjwatson, any plan for the windows frontend? Do we keep current wubi rebranding and ripping off the username/password which is asked by ubiquity?12:36
cjwatsonI haven't had time to think about it yet12:37
cjwatsonI am still neck-deep in doing performance reviews and other wok12:37
cjwatsonwork12:37
xivulonI was thinking of reusing the oem mode12:37
cjwatson!12:37
cjwatsonI *suppose*, but I'm not sure that's really the place to start12:37
cjwatsonoem mode is really pretty different and it needs a lot of work anyway12:38
xivulonwhat I meant is an interface like oem-config-gtk for username/password and possibly other items12:39
cjwatsonthat interface is ubiquity, probably skipping some pages12:39
cjwatsonunless you mean an interface in Windows12:40
xivulonI guessed so12:40
cjwatsonthat comes back to the issue of duplicating validation checks12:40
xivulonwhat are you referring to exactly?12:41
cjwatsoncan we talk about this next week?12:41
cjwatsonI cannot do this today12:42
xivulonabsolutely12:42
cjwatsonI got about five hours sleep and have about twelve hours' worth of work to do today12:42
xivulonthat sounds familiar12:42
xivulontalk to you next week then12:43

evandyou have a sharp eye, cjwatson.  It was setting the model before populating it, thus causing the crash.  Patch to arrive shortly.04:05
cjwatsonwhat a fluke :-)04:12
cjwatsongreat, thanks04:12
cjwatsonI think that stands a chance of being a Qt bug as well, you know ..04:12

evandcjwatson: I know today is insanely busy for you, but whenever you have a free moment next, is there any reason why dpkg-reconfigure -fnoninteractive wouldn't work in an _apply script? Asking on behalf of the mythbuntu developers.06:17

ka1 hello, someone know how can I use grub-installer before base-installer-udeb in d-i  ?10:36
btm_ka1: grub-installer probably needs kernel installer complete to create your configuration file, so that sounds like a dependency issue.10:43
ka1ok I will take a look but I already have kernel, I think it's about /dev because grub-install don't find bios drives for hd0 because /dev/hda1 is something like /dev/disc0bus0part110:51
evand...d-i hasn't used devfs for a while now, afaik10:58
cjwatsonnot since edgy11:01
cjwatsonyou cannot run grub-installer before base-installer11:01
cjwatsonif you're trying to reinstall grub, use expert mode11:01
cjwatsoner, sorry11:01
cjwatsonuse rescue mode, I mean11:01

btm_netcfg really should bring the interfaces up earlier, there isn't enough time before ethtool runs.11:59
cjwatsonuh? ethtool is used to decide which interfaces to bring up12:01
cjwatsonwell, which ones to keep up12:01
cjwatsonit runs strictly after interfaces are brought up, synchronously, so I don't get what you mean about not enough time12:02
