| * xivulon fighting with grub2 | 07:36 | |
| StevenK | xivulon: Hi! I saw what I did earlier with wubi, and screenshotted it. | 07:52 |
| StevenK | xivulon: http://wedontsleep.org/~steven/wubi.jpg | 07:52 |
| StevenK | xivulon: That is with the change evand made to replace - with ' ' | 07:52 |
| evand | StevenK: do you still have that VM/machine up? Can you pastebin the contents of the Wubi log file? %TEMP%\Wubi-rXXX.log | 07:55 |
| xivulon | StevenK having a look | 07:55 |
| xivulon | ps on grub2 it now loads the kernel and initrd files, but it jams as soon as the 'boot' command is executed | 07:56 |
| xivulon | hints welcome | 07:56 |
| xivulon | StevenK, evand: the wubi option in what was umenu is shown IFF: self.info.cd_distro.min_iso_size < cd_drive.total_space_mb*1024*1024 < self.info.cd_distro.max_iso_size | 07:57 |
| xivulon | ^ that was to avoid showing the option for a DVD | 07:58 |
| xivulon | min_iso_size=600000000 | 07:58 |
| xivulon | max_iso_size=900000000 | 07:58 |
| xivulon | is UNR ISO beyond those limits? | 07:59 |
| StevenK | No, it's 712MB | 07:59 |
| xivulon | hmm | 07:59 |
| StevenK | But I'm running it off a 2GB USB key | 07:59 |
| xivulon | ah! | 08:00 |
| xivulon | I guess we need to have a better way to detect a DVD | 08:01 |
| xivulon | wouldn't it be possible to have a flag in .disk/info? or is there a file only used in a DVD? | 08:01 |
| xivulon | evand ^ | 08:02 |
| StevenK | Perhaps the DVD identifies itself as such in .disk/info anyway | 08:02 |
| xivulon | StevenK for the time being use http://paste.ubuntu.com/255588/ | 08:04 |
| xivulon | StevenK as far as I am aware of the .disk/info of a DVD is identical to the CD one | 08:04 |
| xivulon | I guess that the size of casper/filesystem.squashfs is a better indicator than the size of the device containing the file | 08:08 |
| xivulon | StevenK, just to confirm, are the files extracted into the USB key? I assume you do not have an ISO in there. | 08:08 |
| StevenK | xivulon: Yes, using USB creator | 08:09 |
| xivulon | hmm ok I hope that the loopmount function in grub2 works well then or we will need to fix bug #243105 | 08:13 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 243105 in wubi "When Wubi is installed from CD, ubiquity crashes at the end of the installation" [Low,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/243105 | 08:13 |
| xivulon | evand ^ | 08:14 |
| evand | xivulon: indeed, I would suggest we change it to check the size of the squashfs. | 08:16 |
| evand | indeed, we'll sort that out if need be | 08:16 |
| xivulon | TheMuso, when you have some time, can you please check the status of raid support in lupin? | 08:17 |
| xivulon | And also please check whether the current accessibility page is still ok | 08:18 |
| evand | xivulon: speaking of the accessibility page, I noticed that you anchored the items to the page itself, rather than the frames | 08:18 |
| xivulon | evand another long standing issue is creating bookmarks for wubi, but that requires the default bookmarks to be configurable | 08:19 |
| evand | which results in the items sometimes being offset from the frames | 08:19 |
| xivulon | ehm bookmarks for /host | 08:19 |
| xivulon | ah | 08:19 |
| jerroome | hello, I would like to install ubuntu on machines by modifying the grub entry with another kernel, initrd and preseed file. After the machine has booted, it's downloading additional tools, but when it has to partition hd, it never finds any. does anyone have an idea how to manage that ? | 08:23 |
| evand | xivulon: can you not just stick it in ~/.gtk-bookmarks ? | 08:28 |
| xivulon | that I think is created on first login | 08:29 |
| evand | xivulon: I imagine it can already exist. | 08:29 |
| xivulon | so I need to change the home skeleton | 08:29 |
| evand | but yeah, sticking it in skel would replicate it to every user. | 08:30 |
| xivulon | last time I looked at it, the default bookmarks were hardcoded | 08:30 |
| xivulon | main issue at the moment though is that grub2 gets completely stuck upon boot | 08:32 |
| xivulon | and I am not sure how to debug that | 08:32 |
| evand | jerroome: I would need to see logs from an install attempt to better understand the problem you're experiencing | 08:33 |
| evand | xivulon: I'm not sure either. Have you tried modifying grub2 to see where it fails, or perhaps there's a more verbose debug mode? | 08:34 |
| Socah | Hello. I got fallowing problem. I have grub2, and 2 distros atm - gentoo and ubuntu testing. I had once ubuntu 9.04, ubuntu testing and arch. Now, after installing gentoo, I just want to update grub, so as mentioned in doc's I need to run update-grub2. And I do so, it detecs ubuntu testing, and gentoo as it should. After this, I enter /boot/grub/grub.cfg, and this new file doesn't contain gentoo, but my old oses that doesn't exist - arch, ubuntu 9.04, | 12:32 |
| Socah | http://paste.ubuntu.com/255690/ | 12:35 |
| jerroome | evand: I found the problem, I was using the kernel and initrd of a server iso, but used the repository of an alternate iso | 12:44 |
| jerroome | thank you | 12:44 |
| _ruben | ran into some issues after a fresh intrepid pxe install: i had a seperate /boot partition, but grub was looking for its files in /boot instead of / ... after fixing that, it couldnt find /boot by its uuid, changed it to its label in fstab, cant find it either .. strange | 14:17 |

| evand | kirkland: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/255749/ - one more and then we're set | 15:20 |
| evand | I've tested it with the above patch and the copy of user-setup I just uploaded and thankfully everything works | 15:20 |
| evand | I think long-term we might want to consider inventing a cryptswap filesystem type in partman and having something check the value of user-setup/encrypt-home and set all swap devices to be formatted as cryptswap. I'll run that by Colin when he returns from vacation. | 15:22 |
| evand | if you can get a new ecryptfs-utils out today, I should be able to have new CDs produced by the evening (UTC) and then I'll send an email to Kees asking him to poke holes in it. | 15:25 |
| kirkland | evand: i'll push one now | 15:55 |
| evand | thanks | 15:55 |
| kirkland | evand: hmm, that patch doesn't apply cleanly | 15:57 |
| evand | ORLY | 15:57 |
| * evand checks | 15:57 | |
| evand | It's against lp:~ecryptfs/ecryptfs/ecryptfs-utils/ r454 | 15:58 |
| evand | should I be using another location? | 15:58 |
| kirkland | evand: hang on | 15:58 |
| kirkland | evand: it's pastebin that corrupted it | 15:58 |
| kirkland | evand: or your pasting, rather | 15:59 |
| evand | probably the latter | 15:59 |
| kirkland | evand: converted tabs into whitespaces | 15:59 |
| kirkland | evand: can you push a branch? | 15:59 |
| evand | will do | 15:59 |
| kirkland | evand: bzr branch lp:ecryptfs | 15:59 |
| evand | kirkland: lp:~evand/ecryptfs/installer-support | 16:06 |
| kirkland | evand: thx | 16:16 |
| kirkland | evand: i'm curious... when is swap a ram device? | 16:17 |
| evand | on the live CD :) | 16:17 |
| kirkland | evand: heh :-) | 16:18 |
| kirkland | evand: that's just odd | 16:18 |
| kirkland | evand: you're swapping memory to memory :-) | 16:18 |
| kirkland | evand: or am i misunderstanding? | 16:18 |
| kirkland | evand: uploading to karmic now | 16:19 |
| evand | I'm not entirely sure on why it's there. I suspect it's part of the horror that is aufs, though. | 16:21 |
| evand | thanks | 16:21 |
| kirkland | evand: how much longer are you around? | 17:30 |
| evand | probably a few more hours | 17:31 |
| kirkland | evand: cool, i'm hoping you'll push a new iso build once the ecryptfs-utils changes make it in the archive | 17:31 |
| evand | indeed, I've got my eye out for it | 17:33 |
| kirkland | evand: okay, uploaded, awaiting build | 17:36 |
| evand | okay | 17:36 |
| kirkland | evand: sorry i got distracted/delayed until now | 17:36 |
| evand | no worries | 17:36 |
