_ruben | what would be the 'best' starting place for learning to do proper preseeding? i read the parts on it in the serverguide, but no success yet | 13:52 |
evand | _ruben: the installation guide. sudo apt-get install installation-guide-i386 and then open /usr/share/doc/installation-guide-i386/en/index.html | 13:54 |
cjwatson | specifically appendix b | 13:56 |
_ruben | i read the online version at h.u.c | 13:56 |
_ruben | but for some reason it didnt work as expected .. guess i'll hafta dive into some logfiles | 13:57 |

_ruben | is there some log i could check to see which question did get preseeded according to the installer? | 14:04 |
_ruben | "successfully loaded preseed file..." is all i could find sofar | 14:05 |
evand | boot with DEBCONF_DEBUG=developer | 14:07 |
_ruben | i might go and setup a proper pxe env first before diving further into this .. currently testing by booting from cd | 14:10 |
_ruben | heh .. now my the preseed file i tested with earlier actually does work as expected .. odd ;) | 14:30 |
_ruben | now to figure out how to use the network mirror instead of the cd/iso as install source | 14:31 |
_ruben | probably requires the use of the netboot installer files | 14:31 |

evand | what on earth: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/+bug/292493 | 14:56 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 292493 in usb-creator "usb startup disk failed to unmount /cdrom when change partition tables" [Undecided,New] | 14:56 |
superm1 | perhaps he tried to install to another partition on the same key | 14:58 |
evand | ah, that could very well be it. Thanks | 14:59 |
evand | erm, actually. partman will prevent that by default. | 15:00 |
persia | Indeed. That was one of the most noticeable last-week changes in ubiquity for me : no longer selecting /dev/sda as the default drive if that happened to be the install USB stick. | 15:01 |
evand | It's very difficult logic to allow you to install to an unused partition on the installation medium | 15:02 |
superm1 | and generally requires some annoying preseeds :) | 15:03 |
CIA-3 | console-setup: cjwatson * r83 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.28ubuntu1 (to jaunty this time!) | 15:04 |
superm1 | evand, oh that reminds me, did you get a chance to look at the 3 diffs i proposed for usb-creator? | 15:05 |
evand | I'm actually going through all the usb-creator bugs and branches today as I have an OpenWeek session on it at 2pm. So I have not had a chance yet, but I will get to them today. | 15:06 |
superm1 | alright, thx | 15:06 |
_ruben | heh .. using a kickstart file in addition to my preseed file named my box 'kickseed' :p | 15:17 |
_ruben | that'll be tomorrow's challange .. time to call it a (work)day now | 15:18 |

cr3 | is there a way to have a preseed install updates from the proposed repo during the installation process? | 16:10 |
cjwatson | yes! :-) | 16:12 |
cjwatson | apt-setup/proposed=true | 16:12 |
cr3 | cjwatson: wow, you've have thought of everything! | 16:12 |
* cjwatson likes being able to say yes | 16:12 | |
cjwatson | cr3: I did so in response to a bug you filed: bug 181776 | 16:13 |
ubottu | Launchpad bug 181776 in net-retriever "Installer should support retrieving packages from -proposed" [Wishlist,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/181776 | 16:13 |
cjwatson | so I'm not sure I can claim credit for forethought here ;-) | 16:13 |
cr3 | cjwatson: that grabs from mirror/http/hostname rather than local0 repository, right? | 16:13 |
cjwatson | cr3: it has the effect of turning on -proposed for mirror/http/hostname; for local0, you control the sources.list line yourself so you can just add -proposed if you want that | 16:15 |
cr3 | cjwatson: thanks a lot, I will probably be trying out -proposed this week | 16:20 |
cjwatson | yeah, I was talking with Henrik about that an hour ago so was expecting that | 16:28 |
CIA-3 | lilo-installer: cjwatson * r431 ubuntu/debian/ (27 files in 2 dirs): merge from Debian 1.29 | 16:46 |
CIA-3 | lilo-installer: cjwatson * r432 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.29ubuntu1 | 16:50 |
superm1 | is there a preseed that would prevent networking (Network Manager) from even being activated when using a desktop disk that I can't seem to find? | 16:52 |
cjwatson | not short of late_command | 16:54 |
superm1 | well i'm a bit worried that if there is a newer kernel available in -updates while someone runs a recovery | 16:55 |
superm1 | it's an unexpected variable to add to the mix | 16:55 |
superm1 | I suppose in that case, can apt-setup/use_mirror be preseeded to False? | 16:58 |
superm1 | or will that not have the same effect? | 16:58 |
CIA-3 | usb-creator: evand * r55 usb-creator/ (3 files in 2 dirs): | 18:16 |
CIA-3 | usb-creator: * Specify the filesystem type when mounting iso9660 images. | 18:16 |
CIA-3 | usb-creator: * Warn the user when usb-creator cannot mount an image (LP: #287753). | 18:16 |
