[01:16] Zelut: your demo http://zelut.org/projects/misc/ks-test.cfg is working fine( with minor changes for my location) but i need the lvm [01:16] ryoohki: yeah, LVM gets more complicated if you go outside the pre-built installer suggestions/options. [01:21] Zelut: did you see my preseed inclusions in the pastebin? http://pastebin.com/m31722c41 & http://pastebin.com/m1741965 [01:22] Zelut: is @Base not a vaild choice? is %Post not available as well? [01:25] I believe %post is supported but I don't recognize @base [01:34] Zelut: actually they both work. i tried "@ base" instead of "@Base" which, if i remember correctly, works on Centos [01:35] Zelut: can the preseed lvm incluse not be made to work? [01:36] Zelut: is noone in the world using this and therefore there is no working example? [01:36] ryoohki: preseed can do lvm but its *MUCH* easier to use one of the pre-built options, like the LVM options you get doing a manual install. [01:37] ryoohki: I have never preseeded a custom LVM setup. I've only used the preselected options. [01:38] Zelut: i only want 100mb /boot, LVM rest of the disk, swap 2 x ram, and / whatever. this must be a very common desire - not an odd request at all [01:39] isn't that one of the pre-offered options in the LVM section of partman? [01:40] Zelut: did you see how i was including the preseed lvm in my kickstart? this is right out of examples pulled from the web - even from ubuntu's own example-preseed.txt [01:40] Zelut: i think so [01:40] select Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM [01:41] preseed d-i partman-auto/init_automatically_partition select Guided - use entire disk and set up LVM [01:41] always stops at this screen no matter what [01:42] and asks for my input anyway [01:43] Zelut: this preseed stuff is upset easily by spaces btw - one must have the right number of spaces [02:24] Zelut: our company runs an apt-proxy so our sources.lists have: http://ourcompany.com:9999/security and http://ourcompany.com:9999/ubuntu/ [10:33] hello [10:33] i'm looking to preseed mirroir [10:33] can we do that with ubiquity ? === davmor3 is now known as davmor2 [11:47] xivulon: I went to the windbg page and it doesn't seem to list windbg. Do you have a direct link for it still? [12:08] http://www.microsoft.com/whdc/devtools/debugging/installx86.mspx [12:09] I submitted a patch for casper though that would allow us to skip ISO extraction alltogether :) [12:09] I am waiting for evand to come back to see what he thinks of it, but it might be a good solution [12:10] and as a bonus also addresses DVD compatibility [12:12] xivulon: I downloaded that but how do I run it for debugging, on the site it says you'll need 2 machines. windbg isn't a know command or does it apply it's debugging by default? [12:12] it should launch a GUI debugger, and from there you can attach to a running process or run a new process from scratch [12:15] right ta [12:19] i'm looking to preseed the mirror configuration, can we do that with ubiquity ? [12:45] xivulon: re 230716> that should be OK, though I don't think it's appropriate for 8.04.1 [12:56] xivulon: The cd2iso.exe dies that minute I add it to windbg and it won't start running if I run it from windbg === davmor2 is now known as davmor2_dinner [13:32] evand, hi [13:32] I am not sure the cd2iso can be fixed otherwise [13:33] I did a bit of googling and the same issues seem to bite almost any ISO extraction tool under the sun... [13:33] it's likely to be a windows problem [13:34] the casper changes per se are not invasive I would think, and should have no impact on existing use [13:40] but it's ultimately just a new feature (DVD support), and invasive or not, 8.04.1 is for bug fixes. [13:40] ah no maybe I wasn't clear [13:41] the main purpos is to avoid the problems with CD ISO extraction [13:41] bug #207137 [13:42] the idea being to skip ISO extraction alltogether and only copy squashfs [13:42] ok, I'll take another look in a bit. [13:42] but of course I need casper to be able to boot off a given squashfs file [13:42] the fact that the same fix can also address the DVD issue is a side benefit [13:42] which doesn't hurt I suppose [13:42] thx [13:45] hmmm just occurred to me... [13:46] ubiquity does not actually need any file other than the squashfs, correct? [13:47] If so the patch should be enough [18:10] Zelut: have you gotten the LVM automated install working yet? [18:13] is there a way to select a minimal install? "@ base" goes ahead and installs x and open office on our servers. [18:47] my automated install works great on an ATA drive. my mobo also has sata, so i put a sata drive in, removed the ata. Now the partitioner is failing. however, i can cat /proc/partitions, read the dmesg and see a drive. any ideas? === kro` is now known as kro [19:51] HopsNBarley: what are you using to partion the drive, kickstart or preseed? also, drive order matters. are you using sda for the sata drive? [21:58] Zelut: are you around today? [23:42] hi ryoohki - preseed. is this the problem in my preseed: d-i partman-auto/disk string /dev/hda [23:42] ?? [23:43] gotta be - let me rerun it.... [23:48] HopsNBarley: sata is sda
