giosue_chey, does anyone have a second to talk about germinate03:06
ganescjwatson, i customised the ubuntu livecd by following the document but its not booting through dvd05:00
cjwatsongrrrreg: I recommend using the d-i netboot images in hardy-proposed, which include a net-retriever fix that should deal with this problem; it's bug 23448610:26
grrrregcjwatson: thanks a lot11:16
CIA-1rootskel: cjwatson * r329 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.62ubuntu119:53
CIA-1main-menu: cjwatson * r128 ubuntu/ (62 files in 3 dirs): merge from Debian 1.2620:02
CIA-1ubiquity: evand * r2689 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/validation.py):20:14
CIA-1ubiquity: Fixed the missing definition of HOSTNAME_BADDOTS, which was causing a20:14
CIA-1ubiquity: crash when the user entered a hostname that ended in a dot.20:14
cjwatsonevand: are you still editing usb-installation-images? you had a lock which timed out, and I was about to make a few minor changes but didn't want to overlap with you20:48
xivulonevand hi20:51
xivulonon 230703 I had already reverted the changes in the hardy.proposed branch20:52
evandcjwatson: no, I'm not.20:52
evandGo ahead20:52
evandxivulon: ok, did you get my email then?20:53
xivulonyep20:53
evandCan you remind me why that change was made in the first place?  I cannot find any record of it beyond that one email.20:53
cjwatsonevand: ok20:54
xivulonthere are basically two changes to casper one for 230703 and one patch for 23071620:54
evandAlso, I'd prefer changes are first made in trunk and then pushed to hardy-proposed, but don't worry about it this time, I'll pull from hardy-proposed.20:54
evandxivulon: specifically the change we had to revert20:54
xivulonthe change to 23073 was made to allow people to do persistent installations on non-usb devices20:55
xivulonon usb devices...20:55
xivulonbut non-fat20:55
xivulonnot required by wubi20:55
evandI'm confused as to why that was going into hardy-proposed at all then.20:56
xivulonthere was a fixme in the code, and since I was going through it for 230716 and since it was the time we were discussing USB installation I'd thought I'd fix it20:57
xivulonin fact the fix wasn't that invasive, the objection raised are valid BUT are not really triggered by my fix20:57
evandah, in the future please avoid making such changes for hardy-proposed.  AIUI, it's supposed to be for release critical bugs only.20:57
CIA-1main-menu: cjwatson * r129 ubuntu/debian/ (po/mr.po changelog control po/eu.po po/ml.po po/pa.po): merge from Debian 1.2720:57
evandRegardless of impact.20:57
evandNot skirting blame for that one, I shouldn't have let it by in the first place.20:58
xivulonwell they raised a valid point for intrepid at least20:59
evandWho did and where?20:59
xivulonbasically the issue is that you cannot mount journaled filesystems in the initrd20:59
CIA-1main-menu: cjwatson * r130 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.27ubuntu120:59
evandindeed21:00
xivulonbecause that plays the journal and if you have a hibernated system in swap the fs is going to be corrupted21:00
xivulonexcept that there are a few cases that mount filesystems in the initrd...21:00
xivulonboth in casper and in the alternate...21:00
xivulonI'd think that Mithrandir already opened a bug21:08
xivulondidn't check though21:08
xivulonanyway the two changes I'd require are casper: http://paste.ubuntu.com/19445/21:08
xivulonand autopartition-loop21:08
xivulonhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/19447/21:09
evandxivulon: bug #?21:11
xivulonevand #23870121:27
evandok21:29
xivuloncjwatson, read now about your comments on 41624 re lupin (that was the reason of my investigations)21:35
xivulonso I can assume there isn't much to do on my side21:35
xivulonah missed your comment on 230703 too... should have looked at my emails earlier22:10
