[00:07] cjwatson, hm that hack didnt work -> 'lilo-installed failed for unknown reasons' [00:07] * icarus901 moonlights as orbitus [00:08] err, you might try (echo '#! /bin/sh'; echo 'exit 0') > /var/lib/dpkg/info/lilo-installer.postinst [00:09] I guess [00:09] oh, no [00:09] let's try a different approach [00:09] d-i preseed/early_command string ln -sf /bin/false /var/lib/dpkg/info/lilo-installer.isinstallable [00:10] that's closer to what you want anyway [00:10] i did actually try that, though in concert with the first [00:10] ill try alone now [00:11] or (echo '#! /bin/sh'; echo 'exit 1') > /var/lib/dpkg/info/lilo-installer.isinstallable === robbiew is now known as robbiew-afk [00:21] that may have done it; i'll know in a moment [00:30] cjwatson, excellent! problem solved [00:31] apologies for popping up yet again with annoying questions [00:33] np [00:33] glad it's sorted [00:33] which version worked? [00:35] cjwatson, your last suggestion [00:38] ok [03:05] cjwatson, guess who's back [03:06] console-setup model=skip was long after dapper as far as i can tell, but if there's a good way to skip it without human interaction that would be ideal [03:07] refer to the dapper documentation - it didn't use console-setup, there was a different method [03:08] d-i console-tools/archs select skip-config [03:08] from a quick glance at the current Debian documentation, anyway [09:50] is Wubi known to work w/ WIndows 7? [09:57] yes [12:07] evand, ping? [12:07] NCommander: pong [12:07] evand, I'm working on adding UNR to wubi, but I ran into a bit of a snag [12:07] NCommander: not sure if you saw my response before. Yes, Wubi should work in Windows 7. [12:07] okay [12:07] evand, Oh, I didn't. [12:08] evand, How can I force it not to download via bittorrent [12:08] Its trying to pull a non-existent torrent [12:08] Do you mean how do you force it to use the CD? [12:08] I'd like it to autodownload the ISO if possible [12:08] ah [12:08] * evand pokes [12:09] wubi really doesn't handle a 404 too well [12:09] :-/ [12:09] I imagine xivulon welcomes bug reports :) [12:09] and patches, of course [12:09] Oh, I was pointed to you as the wubi guy [12:09] Obviously there's a pointer error somewhere [12:09] I help with it, but xivulon is the main upstream author [12:09] ah [12:10] * NCommander also found another bug [12:10] --nobittorrent seems to be what I want [12:10] ah, good deal. What was the other bug? [12:11] Graphical bug [12:11] A title with a space breaks the first screen [12:11] I get [12:11] "You are about to install Ubuntu Netbook" [12:11] No remix :-) [12:11] cool, its grabbing the ISO [12:11] Now to see if this works as expected [12:14] NCommander: if you fix anything along the way, I'd be happy to merge it in on your behalf. We're trying to build the developer community around Wubi this cycle, among other things. [12:14] evand, your bazaar tree doesn't check out on windows ;-) [12:14] (symlinks are an evil thing on Windows) [12:14] yeah, I noticed that one as well [12:14] WINE [12:15] in wubi.trunk, make runpy [12:15] Meh, I rather develop windows apps on windows [12:15] But that's just me [12:15] sure [12:15] you can always winscp the directory over [12:15] I used to be a Windows programmer before I jumped ship to Ubuntu [12:15] But I never touched python on it :-/ [12:16] Mostly at the time because you couldn't (easily) get a .exe out of it; although wubi proves that changed [12:16] indeed, it's got some wonderful bits in there that I fully intend to steal for usb-creator [12:17] still, I'd love Python support in Visual Studio or MonoDevelop [12:17] I'll have to keep dreaming though, as they appear to have ceased efforts on the Python add-in for the latter. [12:27] evand, there is ironpython [12:27] :-) [12:27] evand, stupid question, is there a way to --verbose wubi? [12:27] its stuck on checking installation files [12:27] --verbose :) [12:29] where's the output come out? [12:29] * NCommander can't figure out why this is stalled [12:30] evand, ? [12:31] %TEMP%/wubi-rXXX.log if memory serves [12:36] partman-lvm: cjwatson * r1216 ubuntu/ (5 files in 4 dirs): (log message trimmed) [12:36] partman-lvm: Rearrange LVM configuration per the [12:36] partman-lvm: foundations-karmic-server-installer-improvements specification. Instead [12:36] partman-lvm: of requiring partitions to be set for use as LVM physical volumes first, [12:36] partman-lvm: we now offer all partitions that could be used as PVs, and automatically [12:36] partman-lvm: set them up that way on request. This allows us to offer our main menu [12:36] partman-lvm: option more or less all the time, and should require many fewer [12:37] (phew. now I just need to figure out how to do the same for RAID and crypto ...) [12:38] very cool [12:39] +1 cjwatson :-) [12:42] * NCommander is trying to figure out why UNR doesn't have an initramfs ... [12:43] oh [12:43] .lz ... [12:52] * cjwatson ponders the partman-md/mdcfg separation [12:57] in some ways it's awfully tempting to try to merge them first [13:10] evand, I'm posting a bazaar branch right now, but I can't successfully install; Wubi choked on parsing .disk\info, but it did download the ISO and it did properly show up in the list [13:11] lp:~mcasadevall/wubi/add-unr-fix-karmic-casper [13:11] (still pushing though) [13:11] thanks, I'll review and merge in a few minutes [13:25] wubi: evand * r139 wubi.trunk/ (5 files in 3 dirs): [13:25] wubi: * Added support for UNR [13:25] wubi: * Modified isolist.ini to represent new casper filename; capser.lz for lzma [13:25] wubi: compressed initramfses [13:42] How did it choke on the .disk/info? It doesn't like daily images? [13:43] StevenK, yeah [13:43] StevenK, I'm going to file a bug on it once I reboot the PC [13:45] NCommander: Please subscribe ubuntu-unr to the bug. [13:46] StevenK, that isn't a UNR specific bug [13:46] StevenK, (the graphical glitch one is though) [13:47] NCommander: No, but it does affect UNR. [13:48] StevenK, alright, I shall [13:48] * NCommander needs coffee and breakfast though first === robbiew-afk is now known as robbiew === dpm_ is now known as dpm === dpm__ is now known as dpm === robbiew is now known as robbiew-afk [21:51] evand1: wubi on hardy.3 is throwing up an invalid cd dialogue [21:52] I think it might be down to wubi being versioned? [21:52] version specific might of been a better description [22:04] mm [22:06] I've committed a fix, but I'd like evand or xivulon to sign off on it [22:06] evand1: ^- when you see this [22:07] evand1: I'm confused about the status of Xubuntu; it's currently on 8.04.2, but it never had a .2 release [22:07] (I think Evan needs to upload this anyway, I don't know the runes) [22:13] cjwatson: ta [22:47] partman-md: cjwatson * r929 mdcfg-merge/ (8 files in 5 dirs): [22:47] partman-md: * Merge mdcfg, making partman-md stand-alone. Bugs fixed along the way: [22:47] partman-md: - Talks about "software RAID" or "multiple device" rather than [22:47] partman-md: "multidisk" (closes: #387696). [22:47] partman-md: - Uses partman locking mechanism (closes: #499285). [22:58] cjwatson: any idea if it's going to have a .2 release, or if I can bump it back down to .1? [22:59] same question for kde [23:00] evand1: I thought kde had a .2 [23:01] ah, so it did [23:01] partman-md: cjwatson * r930 mdcfg-merge/finish-install.d/65partman-md: no need for this guard; the [ ! -s "$CF" ] test is enough [23:03] evand1: Kubuntu had .2 but won't have later ones per slangasek, at least as far as I know and as long as that hasn't changed lately; Xubuntu won't have anything after .1 [23:03] okay [23:03] .1 was done across the board due to the OpenSSL vulnerability; it was a special case [23:05] wubi: evand * r510 hardy/ (data/isolist.ini debian/changelog): Put Xubuntu back at 8.04.1. [23:09] okay, uploaded to rookery [23:09] should be on the next CD roll [23:10] I have to head to bed though [23:10] cheers [23:10] cool, thanks === robbiew is now known as robbiew-afk
