xivulonwhat are the restrictions when selecting a password?00:11
cjwatsonicarus901: the minimum is just url=<blah>; the checksum is a good idea but not a requirement00:42
cjwatsonxivulon: right now, it just has to be at least eight characters long00:43

davmor2cjwatson, evand1: I like the text for password creation it's a lot more descriptive :)14:19
cr3can the live image be used for a server install?15:07
davmor2cr3: expert mode can do a minimal install15:08
cjwatsonthe live image cannot15:09
cjwatsonthe DVD can15:09
cjwatson(or obviously the server CD)15:09
cjwatsonyou can't do a minimal installation from the live image; no expert mode is available15:09
davmor2cjwatson, cr3: yes sorry me going mad.15:10
persiaWell, you *could* use the live image to do a manual install (from debootstrap up) and end up with a server, but that's not recommended, and would involve downloading all the packages.15:10
cjwatsonyes. you're essentially using it as a fat netboot host and doing all the work yourself then.15:11
cjwatsonyou'd have to take care of various little bits of customisation that the installer does on top of debootstrap15:11
evand1So now that we've had ubiquity-preserve-home for a few releases, would it be sane to offer it as a partman-auto choice?16:01
CIA-9casper: cjwatson * r633 trunk/scripts/casper: typo17:05
CIA-9ubiquity: cjwatson * r3277 ubiquity/debian/ (changelog rules):17:38
CIA-9ubiquity: Recommend grub-pc | grub rather than the other way round, since GRUB 217:38
CIA-9ubiquity: is now the default.17:38
superm1cjwatson, doesn't ubiquity need a diff like this for grub2 http://pastebin.com/f144af72617:38
superm1oh haha.. exactly :)17:38

CIA-9usb-creator: rgreening * r113 usb-creator/usbcreator/kde_frontend.py:20:25
CIA-9usb-creator: Added in gettext as backend uses it and this breaks otherwise20:25
CIA-9usb-creator: Added some checks for self.backend being defined before referencing it20:25
CIA-9usb-creator: Added gtk version of setup_sources_treeview and setup_targets_treeview (will need to20:25
CIA-9usb-creator: figure out what to do with these functions... if anything... they setup callback/triggers20:25
CIA-9usb-creator: to update the icons, labels, etc... how to do this in Qt?)20:25
CIA-9usb-creator: rgreening * r114 usb-creator/usbcreator/kde_frontend.py:21:50
CIA-9usb-creator: Changed from using setText to store the UDI data, and instead use setData, which stores21:50
CIA-9usb-creator: a QVariant. This leaves the setText open to display somethin g other than the UDI (yay).21:50
joshkdoes ubiquity respect preseed/late_command?22:46
joshkor only ubiquity/success_command?22:46
cjwatsononly the latter, I believe22:54
joshkcjwatson: okay23:12
joshknot really an installer question.. but is there a way for a rc.local script to echo stuff to the screen?23:26
joshkit seems like stdout is redirected into upstart, or something23:26
joshkwould stderr work? hrm.23:27
