| xivulon | evand did you get a full strace at the end with -s 1024? | 01:07 |
|---|---|---|
| ryoohki | does anyone have a ubuntu 8.04 kickstart that installs the lvm? | 01:10 |
| hardwire | how do you force the 8.04 CD to use the most recent kernel from the network sources without dropping to a shell to do it manually? | 02:21 |
| timbomb | hello? | 06:16 |
| xivulon | evand, cjwatson here is my strace http://launchpadlibrarian.net/15639764/ubiquity.strace | 10:10 |
| xivulon | cjwatson in your patch should it be "Acquire::cdrom::mount", "/cdrom" as opposed to "/target/cdrom"? | 10:13 |
| cjwatson | I meant /target/cdrom; /cdrom is the default | 10:13 |
| cjwatson | my reasoning was that python-apt is running in the live CD root, and pointing it at /target/cdrom might convince it that the CD is a different filesystem from /target | 10:14 |
| xivulon | ah I see | 10:14 |
| cjwatson | thanks for the strace, I'll look at that | 10:14 |
| xivulon | np | 10:15 |
| xivulon | Could we config it maybe so that the repository is not treated as a cdrom but as a local repo? | 10:20 |
| cjwatson | apt's CD-ROM identification is based on inode number and mtime of each item in the root directory, plus some other things | 10:27 |
| cjwatson | it looks like that's been confused somehow | 10:27 |
| cjwatson | this does slightly confuse me since apt-cdrom has been run | 10:28 |
| cjwatson | you're running *without* the patch I posted yesterday, right? | 10:28 |
| xivulon | correct | 10:29 |
| cjwatson | good, I think it was a red herring | 10:29 |
| cjwatson | let's just be clear, I think the completely obvious answer here for 8.04.1 is to revert whatever wubi changes are depending on this | 10:33 |
| cjwatson | 8.04.1 is already late and we do not have time to debug this for it | 10:34 |
| cjwatson | not and produce something reliable, at any rate | 10:34 |
| cjwatson | known old bugs are better than unknown new bugs | 10:34 |
| xivulon | cjwatson I have already created a branch for wubi reverting the changes | 10:34 |
| cjwatson | ok, good | 10:35 |
| xivulon | https://code.edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/wubi/hardy.cd2iso | 10:35 |
| xivulon | I haven't tested it though | 10:35 |
| cjwatson | now, for post-.1: there is a problem here in that apt isn't configured to stop trying to unmount the CD, but that's not the real issue | 10:35 |
| cjwatson | (I'm not happy with treating it as an ordinary local archive BTW, that might get us by the immediate problem but it would create other worse problems later) | 10:36 |
| xivulon | evand we need to start hammering hardy.cd2iso then.. | 10:36 |
| xivulon | please put it on an iso and try installing off CD | 10:37 |
| xivulon | wubi-selfextract should still be used within the iso, while the other .exe should be used as standalone executable | 10:37 |
| cjwatson | I have it narrowed down as far as "something is wrong with CD-ROM identification", but won't be able to get any further today due to other things on my plate | 10:40 |
| xivulon | cjwatson: thanks | 10:40 |
| xivulon | I will notify slangasek and pitti then | 10:41 |
| xivulon | evand please also doublecheck the URLs in isolist.ini http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/wubi/hardy.cd2iso/annotate/agostino.russo%40gmail.com-20080626212319-nyj2otjm34iv07v0?file_id=isolist.ini-20070428121614-qn8q5zgg2pakro1p-1 | 10:56 |
| giosue_c | good morning! I'm still trying to create a repository from scratch that cdimage can use to generate an i386 alternate installer. I get to the point where it is calculating what to add to the disc and debootstrap complains about missing some "debootstrap-required" stuff. | 15:04 |
| giosue_c | Right now my repository contains everything from main and restricted and the debian-installer stuff from main. | 15:04 |
| giosue_c | There are also a bunch of empty Packages files for -proposed -security -updates because without them apt complains. I probably need to go find apts config file, wherever it runs from and get rid of some stuff... | 15:06 |
| giosue_c | just wondering if anyone had any ideas what might be wrong? | 15:10 |
| hardwire | hmm.. is the "server" preseed ever going to be an option in the netboot/mini.iso ? | 18:11 |
| giosue_c | cjwatson: when targeting hardy I am having a hard time with the extract-debootstrap script in cdimage | 23:33 |
| giosue_c | i noticed you fetch the Packages.gz from a different location for hardy. | 23:33 |
| giosue_c | the ftp-universe location | 23:34 |
| giosue_c | My guess is that there is a different debootstrap-udeb package there because I notice that the hardy version of debootstrap-udeb that is in main doesn't work, files have been moved around. | 23:35 |
| giosue_c | course... if anyone else on this channel knows anything about this... I'm all ears. | 23:36 |
| cjwatson | hardwire: it's equivalent to 'cli' there | 23:42 |
| cjwatson | near enough | 23:42 |
| cjwatson | giosue_c: no, ftp-universe is just due to the wacky mirroring setup on the cdimage build machine | 23:43 |
| giosue_c | yea i thought something like that | 23:43 |
| cjwatson | giosue_c: sounds like you need to pull cdimage - that bug was fixed on 18 July | 23:43 |
| cjwatson | err! 18 June | 23:43 |

| giosue_c | oh | 23:43 |
| cjwatson | message: | 23:43 |
| cjwatson | current debootstrap in hardy uses /usr/share/debootstrap instead of /usr/lib/debootstrap | 23:43 |
| giosue_c | yes it does. | 23:44 |
| giosue_c | that makes me so happy | 23:44 |
| cjwatson | it was actually fixed locally on cdimage a while back, but needed to push the change into the right branch | 23:44 |
| giosue_c | makes sense. | 23:44 |
| giosue_c | great! | 23:44 |
| giosue_c | I walk out of the office on a friday with good news. | 23:44 |
| cjwatson | always nice :) | 23:44 |
| cjwatson | anyway, I just stopped by on the way to bed, so ... | 23:44 |
| giosue_c | cheers. have a great weekend | 23:45 |
| cjwatson | you too! | 23:45 |
| hardwire | cjwatson: cli is good enough, I can just install the linux-server metapackage if needed. | 23:50 |
