[03:06] <giosue_c> hey, does anyone have a second to talk about germinate
[05:00] <ganes> cjwatson, i customised the ubuntu livecd by following the document but its not booting through dvd
[10:26] <cjwatson> grrrreg: 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 234486
[11:16] <grrrreg> cjwatson: thanks a lot

[20:14] <CIA-1> ubiquity: Fixed the missing definition of HOSTNAME_BADDOTS, which was causing a
[20:14] <CIA-1> ubiquity: crash when the user entered a hostname that ended in a dot.
[20:48] <cjwatson> evand: 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 you
[20:51] <xivulon> evand hi
[20:52] <xivulon> on 230703 I had already reverted the changes in the hardy.proposed branch
[20:52] <evand> cjwatson: no, I'm not.
[20:52] <evand> Go ahead
[20:53] <evand> xivulon: ok, did you get my email then?
[20:53] <xivulon> yep
[20:53] <evand> Can you remind me why that change was made in the first place?  I cannot find any record of it beyond that one email.
[20:54] <cjwatson> evand: ok
[20:54] <xivulon> there are basically two changes to casper one for 230703 and one patch for 230716
[20:54] <evand> Also, 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] <evand> xivulon: specifically the change we had to revert
[20:55] <xivulon> the change to 23073 was made to allow people to do persistent installations on non-usb devices
[20:55] <xivulon> on usb devices...
[20:55] <xivulon> but non-fat
[20:55] <xivulon> not required by wubi
[20:56] <evand> I'm confused as to why that was going into hardy-proposed at all then.
[20:57] <xivulon> there 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 it
[20:57] <xivulon> in fact the fix wasn't that invasive, the objection raised are valid BUT are not really triggered by my fix
[20:57] <evand> ah, 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-1> main-menu: cjwatson * r129 ubuntu/debian/ (po/mr.po changelog control po/eu.po po/ml.po po/pa.po): merge from Debian 1.27
[20:57] <evand> Regardless of impact.
[20:58] <evand> Not skirting blame for that one, I shouldn't have let it by in the first place.
[20:59] <xivulon> well they raised a valid point for intrepid at least
[20:59] <evand> Who did and where?
[20:59] <xivulon> basically the issue is that you cannot mount journaled filesystems in the initrd
[20:59] <CIA-1> main-menu: cjwatson * r130 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.27ubuntu1
[21:00] <evand> indeed
[21:00] <xivulon> because that plays the journal and if you have a hibernated system in swap the fs is going to be corrupted
[21:00] <xivulon> except that there are a few cases that mount filesystems in the initrd...
[21:00] <xivulon> both in casper and in the alternate...
[21:08] <xivulon> I'd think that Mithrandir already opened a bug
[21:08] <xivulon> didn't check though
[21:08] <xivulon> anyway the two changes I'd require are casper: http://paste.ubuntu.com/19445/
[21:08] <xivulon> and autopartition-loop
[21:09] <xivulon> http://paste.ubuntu.com/19447/
[21:11] <evand> xivulon: bug #?
[21:27] <xivulon> evand #238701
[21:29] <evand> ok
[21:35] <xivulon> cjwatson, read now about your comments on 41624 re lupin (that was the reason of my investigations)
[21:35] <xivulon> so I can assume there isn't much to do on my side
[22:10] <xivulon> ah missed your comment on 230703 too... should have looked at my emails earlier
