CarlFK | cjwatson: tried the preseed file to add the user to the video group, no luck: http://dev.personnelware.com/carl/a/ubuntulivecd2.png | 01:33 |

CarlFK | I have a few other live cd questions - whats a good list to post to? | 01:33 |
CarlFK | printf "\nADD_EXTRA_GROUPS=1\nEXTRA_GROUPS="video"\n" >> /etc/adduser.conf | 02:50 |
CarlFK | there, I fixed it | 02:50 |
cjwatson | CarlFK: URL doesn't exist | 11:05 |
cjwatson | CarlFK: ubuntu-installer@ | 11:05 |
cjwatson | (as in the topic) | 11:05 |
CarlFK | cjwatson: thanks | 13:56 |
CarlFK | I think the reason the preseed didn't work is because there was already a file=u.seed, and I added a 2nd file=my.seed apparently the first one wins. | 13:57 |
CarlFK | I like the ADD_EXTRA_GROUPS thing better anyway - easier to script / document | 13:59 |
cjwatson | CarlFK: yes, if you specify it twice then the behaviour is at best undefined, although actually I think that's a (very minor) bug and the second ought to win | 14:25 |
cjwatson | (since that's how d-i behaves) | 14:25 |
cjwatson | CarlFK: ADD_EXTRA_GROUPS in adduser.conf has different semantics from doing it in preseeding | 14:26 |
cjwatson | CarlFK: preseeding affects only the first user; ADD_EXTRA_GROUPS affects all non-system users added using adduser | 14:26 |
cjwatson | CarlFK: so if the latter's what you want, fine, but you should be aware of the difference | 14:26 |
CarlFK | cjwatson: thanks | 14:31 |
