udit99 | oops.. | 01:32 |
udit99 | I have a question regarding debconf-set-selections | 01:32 |
udit99 | im trying to check if my preseed file is valid by running sudo debconf-set-selections --checkonly xubuntu.seed | 01:33 |
udit99 | and it returns without an error even if the file has junk values | 01:33 |
hye | i'm trying to preseed partitioning. I want to have 3 partitions, one for ext3 and mounted to / , second one for ext3 and not mounted, and third one for swap. | 01:39 |
hye | d-i partman-auto/expert_recipe string boot-root :: 1900 20000 100000 ext3 $primary{ } $bootable{ } method{ form at } format{ } use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } mountpoint{ / } . 100 10000 1000000000 ext3 $primary{ } method{ form at } format{ } use_filesystem{ } filesystem{ ext3 } mountpoint{ } . 0 1000 2000 linux-swap $primary{ } method{ swap } fo rmat{ } . | 01:39 |
hye | if I set 2nd partition as mounted to something (ex, /srv) , | 01:40 |
hye | it works fine | 01:40 |
hye | but I don't know how to set "Do not mount it" | 01:40 |
hye | anyone knows how to set not mounted? | 01:40 |
cjwatson | udit99: it only checks the syntax; it doesn't have enough information to check sanity of values | 01:42 |
cjwatson | hye: just remove the mountpoint{ } bit | 01:43 |
hye | cjwatson: yes, i tried that, and I got msg "[Partition disks] No mount point is assigned for the ext3 file system in partition #2 ~~~~~ Do you want to return to the partitioning menu?" | 01:51 |
hye | cjwatson: I was wondering if there is option like... " Mount on ", so I can select "Do not mount it" | 01:52 |
cjwatson | you'd get that message if you selected "Do not mount it" by hand too | 01:58 |
cjwatson | preseed 'd-i partman-ext3/no_mount_point boolean false' to get rid of it | 02:01 |
hye | cjwatson: ohhhhh you are right. although I select do not mount manually, it asks me that | 02:03 |
hye | thanks a lot | 02:03 |
hye | :-) | 02:03 |
hye | since I was using auto partitioning with /srv (temporarily) for about a month, i completely forgot that it asked me that; | 02:05 |
hye | haha | 02:05 |
hye | stupid :( | 02:05 |
hye | anyway, thanks again! | 02:05 |
cjwatson | no problem | 02:06 |
udit99 | :cjwatson, Im trying to germinate a seed that is in the non-free section of my local repository and it seems that germinate can't find any dependencies for that package | 20:00 |
udit99 | I added non-free to the sections array in germinate.py but that seems to be not enough | 20:01 |
