| agile | evand, thanks for the tip to the installation guide yesterday while I was trying to get a usb stick ready to do server installs. I ended up making the classic mistake of doing exactly what it said and wrecked my laptop's sda1 partion :) | 14:58 |
|---|---|---|
| agile | I back up religiously though so it was all good | 14:58 |
| evand | heh | 14:59 |
| agile | after following the installation instructions in 4.3 though, I still end up with the same results where after I boot from the usb stick it can't mount the cdrom (there isn't one) so I got to a console and try to mount the usb stick and it says mount failed: no such device.. | 14:59 |
| evand | hrm | 15:00 |
| agile | yet it's there in dmesg, I see it in /dev/usb/disks even | 15:00 |
| agile | maybe I should have used kernel and initrd from something beside the server iso | 15:00 |
| evand | if you still can't get it to work, stick casper.log on a pastebin. | 15:06 |
| agile | this is without casper | 15:07 |
| evand | err right, sorry, still a little early here | 15:07 |
| evand | did you try the "easy method"? | 15:08 |
| agile | thinking about it | 15:09 |
| evand | wherein you just cat an already prepared image | 15:09 |
| evand | then you just have to copy the iso over | 15:09 |
| agile | I don't understand the easy way because the boot img it points to using creates a 16M filesystem so there's not enough space to copy an iso and (since it's vfat?) I don't think I can resize it | 15:22 |
| agile | nm it was because it was mounted that I couldn't resize I guess | 15:25 |
| CIA-24 | ubiquity: evand * r2594 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog scripts/install.py): | 15:48 |
| CIA-24 | ubiquity: * Copy the locale over to the target system when using oem-config. | 15:48 |
| CIA-24 | ubiquity: This was previously fixed for the alternate CD in LP 181291. | 15:48 |
| ubotu | Launchpad bug 181291 in oem-config "preseeded locale etc. not propagated to oem-config" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/181291 | 15:48 |
| agilista | I finally got the usb installation working :) \o/ just had to make a second partion on the stick for the iso | 19:24 |
| evand | nice! | 19:28 |
