[12:18] <cjwatson> evand: re earlier: unfortunately partman/choose_partition is about the most complex piece of handling of any debconf question in ubiquity, hence why all the debug is in there to help try to track stuff down. :)
[12:19] <cjwatson> evand: most of that debugging should be enabled by default and should show up on ubiquity's stderr, though. (If you run it from the menu item, that will probably land in ~/.xsession-errors.)
[02:12] <tat_> hello, is there a way to install in tet mode from the xubuntu lie cd ?
[02:12] <tat_> hello, is there a way to install in text mode from the xubuntu lie cd ?
[02:12] <cjwatson> tat_: I'm afraid not. Use the alternate install CD if you want that
[02:14] <tat_> thanks
[02:17] <tat_> but is it not possibill to install packages on a booted liveCD ? so i could install the text based installer package ?
[02:18] <evand> You can install whatever packages you want on the LiveCD (assuming you have the free memory), however the text based installer's package is a build system for the text based installer
[02:18] <evand> not the installer itself
[02:19] <cjwatson> tat_: indeed, the text-based installer isn't a sufficiently normal package for you to be able to do that; it expects to have total control of the system itself
[02:19] <cjwatson> it's more of a miniature operating system than a package
[02:20] <tat_> hos is that text based installer called ( appart from d-i ) ?
[02:21] <cjwatson> d-i or debian-installer
[02:22] <tat_> what is with debootstrap ?
[02:23] <tat_> i could use debootstrap and chroot into the system instal grub and configure the basics , i guess that will work :
[02:41] <cjwatson> tat_: https://help.ubuntu.com/7.04/installation-guide/i386/linux-upgrade.html
[02:41] <cjwatson> tat_: I'm not clear why you don't just grab the alternate CD though
[02:41] <cjwatson> it'd probably be a lot easier ...
[02:42] <cjwatson> that documentation may not be entirely up to date and is probably not exactly equivalent
[03:02] <tat_> i allready am downloading the alternate, i just where looking what will be faster, but since i can`t use the repository on the liveCD with debootstrap the alternate disk install will be faster :)
[03:02] <cjwatson> right

[03:56] <cjwatson> evand: I think I'd be happy with that workaround on a permanent basis, although it would of course be nice to know why it's failing without it
[03:58] <evand> indeed, I shall keep looking
[03:58] <cjwatson> always good to get other work done though. :-)
[03:59] <cjwatson> evand: looks good, will upload shortly
[04:08] <evand> yeah, tell me about it.  Thanks for the upload.
[04:19] <cjwatson> evand: uploading; go ahead and debcommit --release

[05:31] <superm1_> evand, would you be able to merge my changes into the main branch again.  I've got lirc and mythweb stuff for mythbuntu_ui a lot further.  also i cleaned up the summary template as requested by cjwatson some time back
[05:32] <evand> sure
