CIA-4partman-target: cjwatson * r739 ubuntu/ (check.d/proper_mountpoints debian/changelog):16:59
CIA-4partman-target: /media must be on the root file system (although subdirectories may be16:59

kirklandcjwatson: hey, i know that today's server iso is invalid due to our earlier discussion about the crypto modules ....  however, i tested it anyway18:03
kirklandcjwatson: i did see that you re-enabled the "Encrypt your home directory?" question18:03
kirklandcjwatson: but it still didn't succeed...  ecryptfs-utils is not installed in the chroot18:03

CIA-3rootskel: cjwatson * r336 ubuntu/debian/changelog: remove stray whitespace from previous merge18:15
cjwatsonkirkland: it didn't get as far as the point where it would attempt to install ecryptfs-utils18:15
cjwatsonit failed before that18:15
cjwatsonoh actually it didn't fail, you're just jumping the gun :)18:16
cjwatsonecryptfs-utils won't be installed until user-setup-apply runs, right at the end18:16
CIA-3rootskel: cjwatson * r337 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.73ubuntu118:17
tedarhi there - not sure this is the right channel but, is there any keyword I can give the installer to trigger the disk selection?18:19
cjwatsoncan you be more specific? (yes, this is the right channel assuming you mean the Ubuntu installer :-) )18:19
cjwatsonthe installer should offer it to you already ...18:20
kirklandcjwatson: oh, sorry, i'll let the install continue, then18:20
tedaricjwatson> it doesn't, it just selects my biggest drive18:21
cjwatsontedar: not automatically, it asks you ...18:21
cjwatsonyou can select manual partitioning instead18:21
cjwatsontedar: perhaps you could describe exactly what questions you are asked by the installer from the beginning of partitioning onwards? also, please say whether you're using the alternate (text-mode) or desktop (graphical) installer18:22
cjwatsonI'm off for dinner, but stick around18:22
tedarcjwatson: using the desktop version18:23
tedarwill do18:23
tedarcjwatson: after I've selected the keyboard I want to use, I'm presented with only the option to partition one disk, I'm not given any options to change to anything other disk18:24
cjwatsontedar: does the manual partitioning option only show one disk too?18:50
tedarjep18:50
tedarI can see all disks in GParted18:50
cjwatson*blink* I was about to say that that almost certainly meant that the kernel only detected one disk, but that doesn't make sense if gparted shows it18:51
cjwatsonin fact, that's superlatively weird18:51
tedarthere is a couple of errors in the /var/log/installer/debug18:51
cjwatsongparted uses the same underlying library18:51
cjwatsoncould you please post /var/log/syslog /var/log/partman /var/log/installer/debug?18:51
tedarsure18:51
kirklandcjwatson: okay, i'm hitting another complexity ...18:51
tedarwant them here?18:51
kirklandcjwatson: user-setup-apply uses chpasswd to set the user's password18:51
cjwatsontedar: a bug on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+filebug would be best18:51
tedarsure thing18:52
kirklandcjwatson: actually, i can solve this ....18:52
kirklandcjwatson: minor patch to user-setup18:52
tedarcjwatson: manual partitioning works - I'll post the bug though19:22
tedarcjwatson: posted19:32
tedarthanks for your help :)19:33
tedarrebooting19:33
kirklandcjwatson: okay, i've attached a patch to https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/user-setup/+bug/31448219:50
ubottuLaunchpad bug 314482 in user-setup "user-setup password wrapping for encrypted home" [Medium,In progress]19:50
kirklandcjwatson: with that, encrypted home setup in the server/alternate installer is working (for the moment)19:50
cjwatsonkirkland: yow. err, it *looks* ok, but I don't pretend to understand it23:00
kirklandcjwatson: i can walk you through it, if you like ...23:00
kirklandcjwatson: so chicken/egg problem here ....23:00
cjwatsondon't worry about it23:00
cjwatsonI'm just going to apply it and go to bed :)23:01
kirklandcjwatson: basically, this patch is required because the user-setup password set is done using chpasswd, which doesn't walk the pam stack23:01
kirklandcjwatson: where i've also implemented this23:01
kirklandcjwatson: g'night23:01
cjwatsonmaybe chpasswd only works inside an existing PAM session or something, who knows?23:02
