evandcjwatson: will do, thanks for reviewing00:54
acochey guys, I'm using livecd-rootfs to create my filesystem image, but what tool should I be using to create the casper file (it calls for ~~~tmp/hardy-i386/CD1/casper/filesystem.kernel-generic)01:20
persiaRegarding 280014 : when I have a not so bright idea, I'm always happy to be told "Yes it doesn't work.  Don't do that."06:13
cjwatsonpersia: fjp hasn't considered mobile; I don't really buy his objections09:11
cjwatsonpersia: I was under the impression we *needed* this for devices without keyboard input09:12
xivuloncjwatson we should probably move loop mounting from initramfs-tools/scripts/local to local-bottom09:27
xivulonor is there a reason to have it in there?09:28
cjwatsonlocal-bottom wouldn't work; it needs to go before the root filesystem is mounted09:30
cjwatsonbut it also potentially needs to go after local-top09:30
cjwatsonthat's why I put it in local09:30
cjwatsonwell, ok, right now it is after the "root" (p.s. not really) filesystem is mounted09:31
cjwatsonthat's a bit of a cheat though and I don't really think pushing it out into a modular script would make it clearer09:31
xivulonnp, not a big issue at all09:32
cjwatsonanyway, got to go out09:32
xivulonsure, will try to play with dm-loop this w/e09:32
persiacjwatson, We "need" to have blank passwords for devices without keyboards.  That said, it's not considerably harder to do it differently.10:20
persiafjp convinced me to do it differently, in part because I don't really like hardcoding the username anyway: I'm just not sure I could have done it differently for intrepid.10:20

xivulonah there are no dm modules in the initrd, and modprobe fails silently (which made me think that dm-loop was available)20:23
thingyHi, I need to log a bug against the project which corresponds to Ubuntu Intrepid's text mode installer. Can someone let me know what the installer is called (i.e. package name) ?22:29
