[04:41] <macogw> why the switch from GParted to Partman? GParted is easier
[09:12] <thom> superm1: custom archive, too *shrug*
[09:13] <superm1> thom, I forgot i even responded to you like 8 hours ago :)
[09:13] <thom> heh

[04:35] <padwan> Hi!
[04:36] <padwan> How can I build a kernel for kickstart (netboot)?
[04:37] <padwan> http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Modify/CustomKernel -- what's the Ubuntu equivalent?
[04:46] <cjwatson> padwan: the kernel is just the same for Kickstart as for anything else
[04:46] <cjwatson> and you don't need to build it, we ship it
[04:46] <cjwatson> http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/feisty/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/
[04:47] <cjwatson> much of http://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Modify/CustomKernel still applies except that the Ubuntu kernel package spits out udebs by itself
[04:52] <padwan> cjwatson: can you show me how to build it myself?
[04:53] <padwan> cjwatson: I took https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.15/2.6.15-50.61 - well linux-source-2.6.15_2.6.15.orig.tar.gz with #  linux-source-2.6.15_2.6.15-50.61.diff.gz and built my new kernel.
[04:54] <padwan> cjwatson: Now I want to create a initrd.gz for that specific kernel, with the *fixed* RAID controller module, so that I can install Dapper.
[04:57] <cjwatson> padwan: just do step 3 from the Debian URL with the debian-installer source package from dapper, then
[05:08] <Dante123> 	hi all.....I'm planning on installing ubuntu for my neighbour....he has an HP Media Centre m7250 with Windows XP Media version on it......I notice that there is a small fat32 partition (HP may have some diagnostice stuff on there) and the rest of the drive is ntfs.......when I install....I don't want to wipe out his windows........and the choices are guided (use entire drive).......guided (use largerst continous free space) and
[05:08] <Dante123> manual.......I
[05:08] <Dante123> want to give him a 20gb partition........but when I go into Manual.....i get confused.......I tried using gparted and resizing the ntfs partition.... but it wouldn't let me....said there were errors or the drive needs to be checked for errors......any suggestions?
[05:52] <cjwatson> Dante123: you'll probably need to take care of that from the Windows
[05:52] <cjwatson> side
[05:52] <cjwatson> Dante123: make sure it was unmounted cleanly (i.e. the system was shut down properly), and running scandisk or whatever it is there may help
[05:53] <cjwatson> Dante123: there should be more information in /var/log/syslog, which unfortunately isn't really punted through to the UI properly yet
[06:10] <padwan> cjwatson: yay, I'm winning! :)
[06:10] <padwan> cjwatson: /usr/dist/BUILD/installer/debian-installer-20051026ubuntu36.6/build# make all_build
[06:11] <padwan> cjwatson: I've copied all my udebs into localudebs, and
[06:11] <padwan> # dpkg --contents localudebs/nic-modules-2.6.15-50-386-di_2.6.15-50.61_i386.udeb |grep bnx
[06:11] <padwan> -rw-r--r-- root/root    143086 2007-07-10 15:01:09 ./lib/modules/2.6.15-50-386/kernel/drivers/net/bnx2.ko
[06:11] <padwan> but bnx2.ko is not my netboot/initrd.gz ..
[06:15] <cjwatson> check the build log to see if nic-modules really got used, and what version
[06:15] <cjwatson> did you remember to change the configs to 2.6.15-50? they'll use 2.6.15-somethingelse by default
[06:17] <padwan> yup, debian/config/i386.cfg
[06:17] <padwan> I don't see a build.log, or anything .log :-/
[06:17] <padwan> I do see /usr/dist/BUILD/installer/debian-installer-20051026ubuntu36.6/build/tmp/netboot# more udeb.list
[06:18] <padwan> and in there there's no mention of nic*
[06:19] <cjwatson> build log as in the terminal output
[06:19] <padwan> :) let me rebuild
[06:19] <cjwatson> I'm not sure what to say, though - the source lists nic-modules in build/pkg-lists/netboot/i386.cfg
[06:20] <cjwatson> so it should work
[06:33] <padwan> Not being included at all it seems.
[06:44] <cjwatson> I think you're in the best position to debug this; http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/dapper-updates/main/installer-i386/current/images/MANIFEST.udebs indicates that our netboot images do include nic-modules
[08:04] <superm1> evand, i was curious, how do translators get access to the files in debian/po?  are they placed somewhere on launchpad that they log into and add their translations?
[08:05] <superm1> (i had someone contact me interested in doing the translations for the mythbuntu frontend in their native language)
[11:05] <leon64> plz help
[11:06] <leon64> plz reply
