| xivulon | Can you please confirm the url of the new point release dailys vs url for intrepid daily builds? | 10:07 |
|---|---|---|
| xivulon | is http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ assigned to hardy dailys or is it going to change soon? | 10:07 |
| xivulon | at the moment I have http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/hardy/daily-live within wubi, but that is not up yet | 10:08 |
| cjwatson | xivulon: it will be http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/hardy/daily-live/current/ - /daily-live/current/ will become intrepid | 10:12 |
| cjwatson | (I said the same thing a week or two back) | 10:12 |
| xivulon | cjwatson, just doublechecking, since when I checked the url was still the old way. Your recommendation has already been committed | 10:13 |
| xivulon | any idea when the url will change? | 10:14 |
| cjwatson | none, as I said last time check that sort of thing with slangaselk | 10:14 |
| cjwatson | slangasek | 10:14 |
| xivulon | ok will do, thanks | 10:14 |
| cjwatson | I think he was going to start it up RSN | 10:15 |
| * xivulon looks up RSN | 10:15 | |
| xivulon | ah | 10:15 |
| ganes | is there any relation between casper package & kernel | 10:45 |
| ganes | kernel is running on liveinitramfs-tools, now i installed casper it is not working | 10:46 |
| davmor2 | xivulon: how's things? | 11:36 |
| xivulon | hi davmor2! | 12:46 |
| davmor2 | xivulon: How's things in wubi world now? | 12:46 |
| xivulon | all good, been on holidays a few days, missed all the gpg fun | 12:46 |
| xivulon | most bugs have fixes committed | 12:47 |
| davmor2 | not gpg ssh key | 12:47 |
| xivulon | I still cannot figure out the CD ISO extraction | 12:47 |
| xivulon | but I might have a workaround | 12:47 |
| davmor2 | xivulon: cool any testing you need running let me know okay# | 12:47 |
| xivulon | thanks, I am waiting for the new ISO url to settle, then we will start again | 12:48 |
| xivulon | cjwatson, on the CD ISO extraction, I was thinking of only extracting squashfs instead of using our ISO mechanism | 12:48 |
| xivulon | that should be enought to run ubiquity, correct? | 12:49 |
| xivulon | downside is that it would be a bit of a special case and code changes might be too invasive | 12:53 |
| xivulon | davmor2: did you ever try to run the hampus cd2iso program under tracing tools? | 12:54 |
| xivulon | such as windbg | 12:54 |
| davmor2 | xivulon: No I never got chance I'll do it latter for you | 12:55 |
| xivulon | that would be nice, thanks | 12:56 |

| xivulon | well to answer my own question, casper can boot off a squashfs file only if it is in /casper/*.squashfs | 13:52 |
| xivulon | that would require editing casper > check_dev | 13:55 |
| xivulon | evand how do you feel about ^ ? | 13:56 |
| xivulon | once we are at it would it be possible to fix casper-helpers > find_cow_devices (see FIXME) | 13:58 |

| xivulon | bug #230703 | 14:06 |
| xivulon | evand can I assign it to you? the change should be simple | 14:07 |
| xivulon | evand see also bug #230716 | 14:24 |
| === cr3_ is now known as cr3 | ||
| xivulon | evand as mentioned in my last comment to #207137 I start doubting that the issue can be fixed at all, and #230716 seems to be the only clean alternative. | 15:15 |
| xivulon | ps how big is the squashfs in a DVD? that might allow us to support DVDs as well | 15:17 |
| xivulon | it might make it more difficult to support alternate ISOs later on though | 15:19 |
| ryoohki | does anyone have a working pxe install for server? i can't get a a vanilla install - base packages + /boot & lvm( swap / ) | 19:00 |
| ryoohki | i mean ubuntu 8.04 server amd64 | 19:00 |
| Zelut | ryoohki: I do pxe installs pretty regularly, sure. | 19:12 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: great thanks! no matter what i do - it always stops at the partman step | 19:16 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: would you post a simple generic working one to a pastebin? | 19:18 |
| Zelut | ryoohki: give me half-hour or so.. just getting lunch. | 20:03 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: have a good lunch | 20:37 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: thank you | 20:37 |
| Zelut | ryoohki: ok, does this help? http://pastebin.ca/1019358 | 20:50 |
| Zelut | ryoohki: I don't know why yours would crash on partman.. that's basically what I use all the time to setup the pxe and its reliable.. | 20:50 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: it doesn't crash; it halts and waits for input - so it's not automated | 21:06 |
| Zelut | ryoohki: well the automation stuff is a whole other story. I thought you just needed PXE setup | 21:08 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: this is all stuff i've already gotten past | 21:08 |
| Zelut | ryoohki: so I suppose a more accurate request would have been for a working preseed/kickstart setup in pastebin, not a PXE setup. | 21:09 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: i need to automate the install of ubuntu 8.04 server amd64 but it always hangs at the partman step and waits for input even if i specify with preseed to whip the disk and install /boot with LVM( swap + / ) | 21:10 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: it's pretty clear to, myself, at least, that's what a pxe install is - everywhere else but ubuntu - i think it's because noone has it working | 21:12 |
| Zelut | pxe does not have to be automated though. pxe is a different monster from automated installation. | 21:12 |
| Zelut | i use pxe regularly and do manual installs (and automated), but referring to pxe and assuming automation would be incorrect. | 21:13 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: when i say "pxe install" i don't mean "pxe boot" | 21:15 |
| Zelut | i realize that, but a pxe-initiated install can still be a manual install process.. but at this point we're just arguing semantics. | 21:15 |
| Zelut | I don't have a working kickstart for lvm with me now but I can try to put one together later today.. | 21:16 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: afaik the whole point of these tools is to select netboot via a console/ilom and walk away - i can't imagine any other thing | 21:16 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: i appreciate it | 21:16 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: if you would pastebin it for me that would be good, and even better if later you would add it to you webpage( which i had already found and read) | 21:17 |
| ryoohki | Zelut: let me pastebin what i have and is not working | 21:17 |
| Zelut | I'll see what I can do | 21:17 |
