| davmor2 | evand: ago is on about test r124 so that will need to be built locally correct? | 10:23 |
| evand | oh, I can build that quickly for you | 10:24 |
| evand | one moment | 10:24 |
| davmor2 | evand: cool. xivulon showed me how to build it too not that hard once all the packages were in place :) | 10:24 |
| cjwatson | evand: it needed to include partman-auto too | 10:27 |
| evand | argh, apologies | 10:27 |
| davmor2 | evand: https://bugs.launchpad.net/wubi/+bug/359716 this is the bug where the test request came from by the way :) | 10:27 |

| lool | evand: Heya, would like to push http://paste.ubuntu.com/152711/ to usb-creator/trunk, can I do so directly? is this worth uploading to jaunty? | 11:50 |
| evand | lool: please do (core-dev and installer-team have permission), and I'd say so on uploading it | 11:51 |
| lool | (Yeah, I saw I had permission but wanted to double check as I never pushed there) | 11:51 |
| evand | lool: ah, noted. Please feel free to commit anything to there. I have absolutely no problem with anyone from either of those teams making contributions without consulting me. | 11:54 |
| cjwatson | evand: I think the new partman-auto should be available now, if you'd like to respin ubiquity with it | 11:54 |
| evand | cjwatson: will do | 11:55 |
| cjwatson | lool: does the translatable flag break something in that case? (I agree the fix is correct, just not sure of the consequences) | 11:55 |
| lool | cjwatson: It will show broken icons in languages where it was translated, e.g. Finnish | 11:56 |
| lool | (which is how I discovered it) | 11:56 |
| lool | *no* I don't speak Finnish ;-) | 11:56 |
| cjwatson | right | 11:56 |
| cjwatson | makes sense | 11:57 |

| davmor2 | also would the logs be any use? | 12:49 |
| cjwatson | 'ubiquity -d' logs are best for this kind of problem | 12:49 |
| cjwatson | although I think that one is known | 12:49 |
| cjwatson | actually, TBH now that I look at it I don't think it needs more info | 12:50 |
| cjwatson | not for jaunty though | 12:50 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: okay, I thought it was pretty self explanatory, I just wondered if logs would help as I'll be trying it in order to confirm | 12:51 |
| cjwatson | I marked it Triaged | 12:51 |
| cjwatson | I think we simply don't have the code yet to restart the partitioner in the middle like that | 12:52 |
| davmor2 | evand1: 122 didn't work on a compressed vista drive either | 14:37 |
| evand1 | oh, apologies, I think I misunderstood what was happening | 14:38 |
| evand1 | so creating swap only fails if the drive is compressed? | 14:38 |
| davmor2 | evand1: Will the error show up in wubi logs? And would it help if I could get partman and syslog of the wubi install too? | 14:41 |
| evand1 | please include all the log files, yes. But is my question correct? Is creating the swap file only failing if the drive is compressed? | 14:42 |
| davmor2 | evand1: Sorry yes. If you run compress drive to save space in vista that is when the issue appears. | 14:42 |
| evand1 | ok | 14:43 |
| davmor2 | Right I'll battle with the logs and see how far I get :) | 14:43 |

| evand | davmor2: yes, though I suspect it will be xivulon who works around it in wubi | 15:03 |

| DogWater | Hey, with 8.10 x86 in kickstart, does the 'reboot' directive cause a problem with the preseed/late_command? it seems that if I have reboot in there that runs before late command | 15:20 |
| cjwatson | DogWater: no - 'reboot' just silences a note, that's all | 15:22 |
| cjwatson | ks_preseed d-i finish-install/reboot_in_progress note '' | 15:22 |
| cjwatson | IOW it causes the "Installation complete" message not to be displayed | 15:22 |
| DogWater | hm, thats really strange then because if I #reboot in the ks it doesn't reboot obviously, but the late_command string is run, if I have reboot in the ks it reboots but the late_command is not run | 15:23 |
| DogWater | does it maybe not run concurrently? what I mean is it possible that reboot could run during the execution of late_command? | 15:23 |
| cjwatson | no, that isn't possible | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | Kickstart commands don't really "run" anyway, they just preseed answers in d-i | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | (for the most part) | 15:24 |
| cjwatson | think of it as setting up a database in advance | 15:25 |
| DogWater | ah, okay darn, i've reproduced this about a dozen times but i could be doing something wrong. | 15:25 |
| cjwatson | now, of course, if your late_command backgrounds itself, it won't necessarily complete before d-i gets round to rebooting | 15:25 |
| DogWater | it just has a bunch of in-target commands, nothing backgrounded and then | true at the end to get past some bug you told me about awhile ago | 15:26 |
| cjwatson | do you mean "|| true"? | 15:27 |
| DogWater | | true is what I've had | 15:27 |
| cjwatson | that might be your problem then ;-) | 15:27 |
| DogWater | so it should be || true? | 15:28 |
| cjwatson | "| true" -> pipe output of this command to true (you never want this, to an extremely good first approximation); "|| true" -> ignore errors from this command | 15:28 |
| _ruben | | true could have some nice (side)effects i'd say :) | 15:28 |
| DogWater | hrm, im almost certain that you told me to put | true in there awhile ago but I dont really know ;-) i'll try it with || true | 15:29 |
| cjwatson | feel free to prove me wrong with logs, but I'd have to have been really outstandingly tired to recommend | true :-) | 15:29 |
| DogWater | oh, its not really important | 15:29 |

| DogWater | ah, i'm using intrepid | 17:40 |
| cjwatson | yeah, trying that next | 17:42 |
| cjwatson | DogWater: ok, it's working for me with the intrepid mini.iso from http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/intrepid-busybox-fix/i386/netboot/mini.iso | 17:45 |
| cjwatson | DogWater: you are using that, aren't you? | 17:45 |
| cjwatson | (I haven't tried stock intrepid) | 17:45 |
| DogWater | No, I use netboot | 17:46 |
| cjwatson | that *is* netboot | 17:46 |
| cjwatson | I'm just using the iso form factor | 17:46 |
| DogWater | oh, right but I don't use the iso, right right. | 17:46 |
| cjwatson | but you're using the image from that directory? | 17:46 |
| DogWater | let me make sure | 17:47 |
| DogWater | I could've very well picked up the wrong one as I have like 70 different ones in my tftp root | 17:47 |

| cjwatson | the build number's no indication, I don't think I changed it when rebuilding for the busybox fix | 17:51 |
| cjwatson | doesn't match the size I have here | 17:52 |
| DogWater | okay, i'll get the version you specified and match the file size | 17:52 |
| DogWater | http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/intrepid-busybox-fix/i386/netboot/ 404s | 17:53 |
| cjwatson | that matches the file size of intrepid as released, not my rebuild | 17:53 |
| DogWater | oh, sorry this is the one specified in pxelinux | 17:53 |
| DogWater | 7604962 Nov 4 07:43 initrd.gz | 17:53 |
| cjwatson | sorry, try http://people.ubuntu.com/~cjwatson/tmp/intrepid-busybox-fix/i386/netboot/mini.iso | 17:53 |
| cjwatson | that sounds more like the rebuild, yes | 17:53 |
| cjwatson | in that case I'm not sure what to say - I can't reproduce it here :-( | 17:53 |
| DogWater | can i just put 'reboot' in the late_command? | 17:55 |
| DogWater | or will that screw something else up | 17:56 |
| cjwatson | that will just break | 17:57 |
| cjwatson | I think the most practical way to get further information would be to boot the system with your usual boot parameters but also BOOT_DEBUG=3, which will give you shells at various points in the boot process - in the first of those, 'nano /lib/kickseed/kickseed.sh' and put 'set -x' on the second line, and then Ctrl-d until you get back to the installation as normal | 17:58 |
| cjwatson | then extract /var/log/installer/syslog at the end | 17:59 |
| DogWater | would not having "" in the user add line cause a problem? | 18:07 |
| cjwatson | could you elaborate? | 18:08 |
| DogWater | administrator --fullname --password stuff | 18:08 |
| DogWater | the only thing i notice is that line is right above 'reboot' | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | the file you sent me had: | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | user administrator --fullname "" --password stuff | 18:09 |
| DogWater | yeah it had --fullname "" | 18:09 |
| DogWater | what about around the password? | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | that doesn't matter | 18:09 |
| DogWater | okay | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | but --fullname --password stuff would be wrong | 18:09 |
| cjwatson | honestly my set -x log suggestion above is probably quicker than guessing | 18:09 |
| DogWater | and that goes in the kernel line or the append line? | 18:14 |
| cjwatson | BOOT_DEBUG=3 goes in the append line; then follow my instructions above | 18:15 |
| DogWater | Alrighty, i'm doing a CentOS 3 test atm then i'll go back to that one | 18:23 |
| DogWater | cjwatson: about that, it appears that there is no usb support in that? | 19:38 |
| DogWater | can't type anything | 19:43 |
| DogWater | cjwatson: as broken as my stuff might be replacing reboot /w preseed finish-install/reboot_in_progress note fixed it | 21:35 |
| DogWater | thankyewsir | 21:41 |
| shtylman | cjwatson: any last minute kde installer things you want me to take a look at? | 23:24 |
| cjwatson | maybe check that we didn't break anything obvious with our last-minute hacking ;-) | 23:25 |
