[09:32] Anybody free for one small question ? [09:34] (just ask the question, if someone has time to answer it they will) [09:37] Ok. I'm from Vietnam and the problem is the following : using 7.04 Live Cd Desktop (i386) for installation. When selecting installation language as Vietnamese, the installation process encounters a fatal error and exit at the moment of installing Grub (around 90-93% of installation). If installation is done using, e.g. English of French, it installs just fine. Thus the problem seems to be non-recognized characters/words that are sent durin [09:48] Sorry to disturb again : is this the right channel to ask my question or should I join an other channel ? [09:52] vdquynh-hanoi, this sounds like a bug to me, you should submit a bug to launchpad, and attach your syslog and partman [09:52] from a failed install [10:49] ubiquity: cjwatson * r2153 ubiquity/debian/ (changelog control rules): * Make ubiquity-frontend-mythbuntu Architecture: all. [10:53] ok and thanks. I'll try to do that (not much acquainted with all these procedures) ! [10:57] vdquynh-hanoi: please read https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs and https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingUbiquity/AttachingLogs [10:58] vdquynh-hanoi: You'll want to file the bug against the ubiquity package [11:00] Thanks all ! === xivulon [i=c2325681@gateway/web/cgi-irc/ircatwork.com/x-f0297861cb529237] has joined #ubuntu-installer [11:37] Hi all [11:38] cjwatson, would it be possible to merge the hd-media and cdrom initrds? [11:41] xivulon: no [11:42] they're quite different [11:42] basically for each different retrieval method you need a different initrd [11:42] What I mean have a scanning algorithm [11:43] that tries to check whether you can mount a CD and if that fails looks for an ISO [11:43] that would be slow and flaky, I think [11:43] The reason I am asking is that it would be nice to use the same initrd in the CD and in Wubi [11:44] But that means that the initrd has to support both hd-media and cdrom type of functionalities [11:44] since there is no way to know in advance if the initrd is booted from CD or from HD, and whether you have to use an ISO or the actual CD [11:46] This by the way would allow wubi to also go around bios broblems and launch the live cd as opposed to install on file [11:49] that should be moot when booting from the live ISO [11:49] not if you cannot boot from the live ISO because of bios [11:50] in this case you could run the live iso from within windows, use wubi, that would install grub4dos and kernel and initrd on disk, that would use cdrom-initrd functionalities to launch the live iso [11:51] Also it would solve another issue [11:53] A user might run wubi from within the live CD in order to actually install on file, but when he reboots he might have the CD inserted and boot from it, the live ISO should therefore scan for preseed/vergin installation folder [11:54] the live ISO has nothing to do with hd-media vs. cdrom initrds, therefore that cannot be relevant to the live ISO [11:55] I am mixing the 2 since I will probably be targeting alternate initrds first, but once we move to the live CD equivalent functionality will need to be available [11:55] patch casper, then :) [11:56] already branched that off ;) === asac [n=asac@debian/developer/asac] has joined #ubuntu-installer === asac [n=asac@debian/developer/asac] has left #ubuntu-installer [] === AnRkey [n=AnRkey@host-83-146-42-229.bulldogdsl.com] has joined #ubuntu-installer [02:56] hi all [02:56] who works on the net-installer? === cr3 [n=marc@modemcable178.77-70-69.static.videotron.ca] has joined #ubuntu-installer === avoine [n=avoine@69.70.0.36] has joined #ubuntu-installer === byzzyb [n=byzzyb@194.50.50.217] has joined #ubuntu-installer [05:29] hello everyone [05:29] I have a question: I have an ASROCK 939A8X-M motherboard and the s-ata controller was causing problems when I was installing Fedora Linux v7 ... now my question is will ubuntu work with my S-ata? [05:30] so will ubuntu freeze when loading initrd.img?
