| xivulon | I think it's something to do with the loopdevices | 12:36 |
|---|---|---|
| xivulon | removing the loopdevice && mkfs.ext3 root.disk #works | 12:37 |
| xivulon | also recreating the loopdevices and running mkfs.ext3 /dev/loop2 works | 12:37 |
| xivulon | if I target the original loop devices though it jams | 12:38 |
| evand | hrm | 12:41 |
| evand | I'd say you're right then :) | 12:41 |

| xivulon | cjwatson, had a go at wubi yesterday, I also got stopped at mkfs create hournal | 10:55 |
| cjwatson | I'll switch back to non-sparse files post-beta like you suggested and we'll see how that goes | 10:56 |
| xivulon | I tried that but it did not make any difference | 10:56 |
| xivulon | the wierd thing is this | 10:56 |
| xivulon | if I stop just before the makefs command and run mkfs.ext3 /host/ubuntu/install/root.disk it works | 10:57 |
| xivulon | if I do the same targeting the loop device it does not | 10:57 |
| xivulon | but... | 10:57 |
| xivulon | if I create the file, loop device and run mkfs on the loopdevice without running ubiquity it also works | 10:58 |
| xivulon | I stopped there yesterday night, did not run any trace | 10:59 |

| cjwatson | we have been working on integrating wubi lately, but if it's help with wubi you need then there may be better places | 01:07 |
| xanax` | ok | 01:08 |

| cjwatson | not now, sorry | 01:17 |
| xivulon | cjwatson, I can try a bit tonight, but I will be away till monday | 01:20 |
| cjwatson | I'm sorry but it's beta day and I have a couple of important software deliveries to finalise | 01:28 |
| cjwatson | I won't have any time today | 01:28 |
| xivulon | np, if I find anything I'll send you an email, then we can resume on monday | 01:33 |
| xivulon | besto of luck with the beta!!! | 01:33 |
| xivulon | by the way cjwatson, we could have shipped wubi, limited to Use-CD/Read-Only mode, it would have been useful for people with bios issues. Don't know why I didn't think of that | 01:46 |

| mebrown | question: for automatic-ubiquity, I need to install language support for many languages (in oem-mode) so that the customer can choose their langauage on first boot | 04:53 |
| mebrown | I dont see anything in the preseed docs for installing multiple languages | 04:54 |
| cjwatson | mebrown: ought to be possible by preseeding pkgsel/language-packs (string type) to a space-separated list of language codes | 04:56 |
| mebrown | so something like: | 04:56 |
| mebrown | d-i pkgsel/lanague-packs string language-pack-XX language-pack-YY ... | 04:57 |
| mebrown | ? | 04:57 |
| cjwatson | not quite | 04:58 |
| cjwatson | d-i pkgsel/language-packs string XX YY | 04:58 |
| mebrown | Is it documented somewhere that I missed? | 04:59 |
| cjwatson | not that I can see, no | 05:00 |
| mebrown | ok. just making sure. | 05:00 |
| cjwatson | feel free to file a bug on installation-guide asking for that | 05:00 |
| mebrown | cjwatson, I have been out of commission for a day and a half now, so I'm out of the loop... have you finished your beta-stuff? | 05:01 |
| cjwatson | I'm finishing for the day now, I got two hours of sleep last night and I think my wife would like to remember what I look like | 05:01 |
| cjwatson | mebrown: I've asked evand to take care of your automation needs | 05:01 |
| cjwatson | since he implemented ubiquity-automation in the first place :) | 05:01 |
| mebrown | ok. so I am getting up to speed on how gutsy dev works... | 05:03 |
| mebrown | how long would it take to get into a daily build? | 05:03 |
| cjwatson | it was my understanding that you would be OK with applying patches for a little while, and that getting into the archive was not immediately critical | 05:04 |
| mebrown | yes, it is. | 05:04 |
| mebrown | but inconvenient... | 05:04 |
| cjwatson | understood, but the archive doesn't unfreeze after beta until tomorrow, and we also have a responsibility not to break things for other users at this point | 05:04 |
| cjwatson | so Friday is a little bit short really | 05:05 |
| cjwatson | but anyway, in general it takes a couple of hours from upload to available-in-the-archive | 05:05 |
| mebrown | ok. was hoping something next week actually | 05:05 |
| mebrown | I already committed myself to using patches for my friday deadline | 05:05 |
| cjwatson | assuming that we have patches ready on Friday, that should be no problem | 05:05 |
| mebrown | Ok. Thanks. | 05:06 |
| mebrown | I'm off to hack on things for another round. | 05:06 |

| bdmurray | evand: bug 145727 might be a quick fix | 08:35 |
| evand | bdmurray: what did you have on your other partitions when you noticed this bug? | 08:40 |
| bdmurray | an exisitng gutsy install on one, my ext3 home partition on another and vista with ntfs | 08:42 |
| evand | ahh, that reinforces my theory that this only happens with Vista. It may end up being a duplicate of 135149, but I wont know until I get logs for both bugs. | 08:42 |
| evand | thanks for bringing this to my attention | 08:43 |
| bdmurray | evand: I probably still have logs what do you need? | 08:44 |
| === superm1 [n=superm1@ubuntu/member/superm1] has joined #ubuntu-installer | ||
| evand | /var/log/installer/debug (wont be there unless you passed --debug) and /var/log/syslog | 08:45 |
| evand | If you don't have the time for that, don't worry about it. I have a Vista install in VMWare and I'll see if I can reproduce this a little later in the day. | 08:47 |
| bdmurray | 145712 is probably related too | 08:47 |
| evand | hrmm, it looks like the same section of code, but a different bug. I need to make that routine bulletproof before RC. This is not the first time I've seen bugs related to mounting and unmounting partitions in m-a. | 08:51 |
| bdmurray | Would a bug report about the netboot belong with the debian-installer package? | 09:03 |
| evand | That's probably a good starting point for it. netcfg might be more appropriate, but I am not certain about that. | 09:10 |
| === xivulon [n=ago@87-194-85-156.bethere.co.uk] has joined #ubuntu-installer | ||
| bdmurray | I thought I had seen a bug report about language installation issues. Is there a "master" bug for that? | 09:27 |

| mebrown | cjwatson, ping... the early_command.diff you sent Tuesday appears to work ok | 11:55 |
| evand | mebrown: he left for the day, but I'll be happy to field any questions | 12:07 |
| mebrown | no questions for now. | 12:07 |
| evand | ok | 12:08 |
| mebrown | just wanted to let him know that the patch works (and hopefully will show up in a daily soon... :) | 12:08 |
| mebrown | now just looking at hacking something in for late_command | 12:08 |
| evand | indeed, I'm on it. We should be able to get it in tomorrow when the archive re-opens | 12:08 |
| mebrown | ok. | 12:09 |
| mebrown | do you have a patch that I can apply locally? | 12:09 |
| mebrown | or should I just continue my hackish-hacking? | 12:09 |
| evand | I'm working on patches as we speak. I have a patch for preseeding the reboot done and tested if you'd like it. | 12:09 |
| mebrown | dont absolutely need that one right now | 12:10 |
| mebrown | I need late_command | 12:10 |
| evand | ok | 12:10 |
| evand | I'll let you know as soon as I have that ready. | 12:10 |
| mebrown | because I can (will, actually) be scripting in a reboot in late_command, so the preseed for reboot is going to be more useful to other people. | 12:10 |
| mebrown | thanks. | 12:10 |
