| CarlFK | live cd, root w/ networking, grub.... segfault. | 01:00 |
|---|---|---|
| CarlFK | installed 9.04 using alt installer. used ext4 for / on sda1 which includes /boot. I also had 2 other drives plugged in. when I booted, I got "GRUB Hard Disk Error" - thus the live...grub | 01:00 |
| CarlFK | grub, grub prompt> root (hd0,0) \n grub> kernel vmlinux \n Segfault | 01:01 |
| cjwatson | please report this to LP rather than here | 01:08 |
| cjwatson | though I have to say that a segfault actually sounds like something later than grub, perhaps something very early in the initramfs - grub itself runs outside the operating system's memory management and a segfault would be kinda weird | 01:09 |
| CarlFK | the segfault is when boot live cd and run grub from a root shell | 01:10 |
| cjwatson | oh, right, you can tell I'm tired | 01:11 |
| cjwatson | please report that using ubuntu-bug so that we get a crash dump | 01:11 |
| CarlFK | no prob - my report here is kinda ... inside out | 01:11 |
| CarlFK | is there a .crashfile I can include? | 01:16 |
| CarlFK | the segfault does not say "core dumped" - not sure if that's what ubuntu-bug wants | 01:17 |
| cjwatson | if ubuntu-bug can find a .crash file, it will include it | 01:26 |
| cjwatson | oh, or maybe not | 01:27 |
| CarlFK | ok | 01:27 |
| CarlFK | heh | 01:27 |
| cjwatson | if there is a .crash file, you should get the icon for it | 01:27 |
| cjwatson | you might need to follow the directions at the top of /etc/default/apport first though, and then reproduce the crash again, since apport is typically turned off for final releases | 01:27 |
| cjwatson | so 'sudo force_start=1 /etc/init.d/apport start', reproduce crash, click on icon | 01:28 |
| CarlFK | I think running sudo grub was hiding the crash from the user | 02:12 |
| CarlFK | chmod -R 777 /var/crash = "crash detected... " | 02:12 |

| Rafik | hi. someone asked why Ottawa (the capital of Canada) isn't in the listing for timezone selection but smaller Canadian cities are | 03:21 |
| persia | Rafik, It wasn't in the list of cities provided by the upstream list (zone.tab from tzdata2009f.tar.gz from ftp://elsie.nci.nih.gov/pub/ | 03:31 |
| persia | It's possible to add it, but it would make more sense to add upstream. | 03:31 |
| Rafik | good to know, thank you | 03:42 |
| soren | cjwatson: How would you rate the chances of having the graphical d-i for Karmic? | 11:38 |
| cjwatson | soren: don't know yet, I haven't checked whether it's working with current GTK yet. Probably better than for Jaunty though | 12:01 |
| cody-somerville | It worked okay for me | 14:16 |
| cody-somerville | I didn't do a full install with it though | 14:16 |

| asac | what package would the "bookmarks import from old/windows installs" be in? | 16:13 |
| charlie-tca | Isn't that migration-assistant ? | 16:13 |
| evand | indeed, migration-assistant | 16:25 |
| evand | though it doesn't work with Firefox 3 at all at the moment | 16:25 |
| asac | evand: is bug 220064 ffox 3 specific? | 16:56 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 220064 in migration-assistant "Migration Assistant does not migrate firefox bookmarks" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/220064 | 16:56 |
| asac | ok commented | 16:57 |
| evand | It is, yes. One of the things I'll be doing over the Karmic cycle is bringing migration-assistant up to date with changes to firefox, pidgin, and other sources. | 16:58 |
| asac | good ;) | 17:00 |
| asac | if you need info on firefox shoot | 17:00 |
