| davmor2 | evand1: cjwatson: wubi just locked up at scanning disks | 00:00 |
| davmor2 | rebooted now it's working meh | 00:05 |
| davmor2 | may have to try this again tomorrow | 00:05 |
| davmor2 | fail | 00:13 |
| davmor2 | I'm checking the cd incase it's a bad burn | 00:13 |
| xivulon | cjwatson, tested wubi and is fine here :) | 08:34 |
| davmor2 | xivulon: sweet | 08:34 |
| xivulon | only minor thing, is that the grub2 menu should be hidden, as discussed a few days ago' | 08:34 |
| xivulon | davmor2, please test it yourself and let me know if there is any issue | 08:35 |
| davmor2 | I think I might of had a dud burn or something | 08:35 |
| StevenK | xivulon: Oooh, does Wubi work now? | 08:36 |
| xivulon | StevenK works for me, please try it out and report any problem | 08:37 |
| StevenK | xivulon: I shall | 08:37 |
| xivulon | for this cycle it is mostly merit of cjwatson | 08:37 |
| davmor2 | xivulon: out of interest what size partition did you give wubi? | 08:38 |
| xivulon | 5GB | 08:38 |
| davmor2 | I was having issues last night at the default of 17gb | 08:39 |
| xivulon | what sort of issues? | 08:39 |
| davmor2 | no grub.cfg at all | 08:39 |
| xivulon | hmm that should be independent of the partition size | 08:40 |
| davmor2 | but as I say I'm hoping it was just down to a bum burn and am trying again this morning | 08:40 |
| xivulon | in case you have the same issue post in lp | 08:41 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: Wubi worked Yay \o/ | 09:03 |
| davmor2 | must of just been a bad burn | 09:03 |
| xivulon | davmor2 cool | 09:20 |
| cjwatson | davmor2: there definitely seems to be some instability | 10:01 |
| cjwatson | it works, but only sometimes, AFAICS | 10:02 |
| cjwatson | I have a hard time putting your previous problem down to a bad burn; if that were the case I'd expect some log messages | 10:02 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: I'm just trying a 64 bit one now I'll let you know | 10:05 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: the only flaw I had in the 32bit one was with the gdm respawn at the end | 10:07 |
| cjwatson | right | 10:07 |
| davmor2 | dj64bit just locked up on scanning disks | 10:29 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: ^ | 10:29 |
| davmor2 | don't where the dj came from | 10:30 |
| evand | davmor2: by locked up do you mean you cannot use the mouse and keyboard? | 10:31 |
| davmor2 | evand: mouse moves, no c-a-fx though | 10:32 |
| cjwatson | C-A-Fx is broken on Wubi installation, I don't know why | 10:32 |
| cjwatson | and this is the same kind of instability I was referring to | 10:32 |
| cjwatson | reboot and try again :-/ | 10:32 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: reboot it's now gone sailing past that point no issues so far | 10:38 |
| evand | lovely | 10:38 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: that time it's worked fine Meh | 10:48 |

| davmor2 | evand, cjwatson: would you like me to post a bug that wubi is a little erratic and you may need to reboot? | 11:21 |
| cjwatson | sure, though I don't think I'll be able to do anything much about it myself :( | 11:24 |

| davmor2 | same for hd (0,1) | 12:38 |
| davmor2 | and then Try (hd0,2): NTFS5: _ with the _ being the cursor then nothing | 12:39 |
| cjwatson | would be interesting to know if it reproduces | 12:43 |
| davmor2 | I'll re-run it now | 12:45 |
| evand | I'll give wubi a testing as soon as I get to the bottom of this usplash not showing the eject CD message issue I'm seeing. | 12:47 |
| davmor2 | cjwatson: reboot give exactly the same result | 12:51 |
| davmor2 | 3 reboots | 12:51 |
| davmor2 | trying a reinstall | 12:51 |
| cjwatson | yeah, I meant reinstall I'm afraid | 12:54 |
| cjwatson | I'll give it a try myself later - this sounds more like instability than something intrinsically Kubuntu-related though | 12:54 |

| davmor2 | cjwatson: I'm going to try a 64kub wubi install | 14:04 |
| cjwatson | I don't know if completing the matrix there is going to add much information, TBH | 14:05 |
| davmor2 | if this one fails dismally too do you want me to bother loop mounting the drive to get the logs off it? | 14:05 |
| cjwatson | it seems somewhat unstable and nondeterministic in all combinations | 14:05 |
| cjwatson | it's not that any one thing always fails dismally, or always succeeds | 14:05 |
| cjwatson | it's that all of them are somewhat random | 14:06 |
| cjwatson | sure, logs won't hurt | 14:06 |
| davmor2 | okay cool :) | 14:06 |
| cjwatson | from what I can gather I don't think we should label failures as specific to any particular build though | 14:06 |

| evand | I've run into the scanning disks wubi bug :-/ | 15:39 |
| superm1 | evand, what's wrong with making it a recommends for ubiquity (reiserfsprogs)? wouldn't that fix the problem without requiring all seeds to explicitly declare it? | 15:46 |
| evand | superm1: I don't see any problem with that. I was just following the existing convention. | 15:47 |

| CarlFK | are there any size constraints for the netboot initrd? what is at: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/dists/karmic/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/ubuntu-installer/i386/initrd.gz | 15:50 |
| CarlFK | I am getting "E100_request_firmware failed to load firmware "e100/d101m_ucode.bin file not found." if that is expected because there isn't room, ... grumble... else I'll file a bug | 15:51 |
| evand | cjwatson: so I found a bit of a workaround for the not having getty and wubi failing issue. Wait for the slideshow to appear, click on a link. When Firefox opens, type irc: in the address bar, then select a custom handler of /usr/bin/xterm ;) | 15:52 |
| cjwatson | evand: reiser> don't have strong feelings either way | 16:01 |
| cjwatson | evand: haha | 16:01 |
| evand | Is there a bug open for the ubiquity lock ups when running under wubi bug? | 16:01 |
| evand | I can't seem to find it under ubiquity, partman-auto-loop, or wubi | 16:01 |
| cjwatson | CarlFK: I *think* that's the responsibility of the kernel to ship the right bits in the firmware udebs | 16:01 |
| cjwatson | evand: I thought davmor2 filed one on wubi - bug 439279? | 16:02 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 439279 in wubi "There seems to be some instability with the installer" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/439279 | 16:02 |
| evand | ah weird. Somehow I missed that. Thanks | 16:02 |
| CarlFK | cjwatson: isn't the installer kernel the same as the kernel that gets installed? (so should have all the same support... so something broke) | 16:03 |
| cjwatson | CarlFK: the kernel image (vmlinuz) itself is, but the module selection is stripped down | 16:03 |
| cjwatson | (and always has been) | 16:03 |
| CarlFK | cjwatson: ok - as long as its intentional and not an opps. but I am guessing good nic support is something the netboot kernel should have - Ill bug all this and let someone make a decision | 16:06 |
| cjwatson | stick the bug on linux, it's probably just a matter of adding that file to nic-firmware | 16:06 |
| mikefletcher_ | Hi. In Jaunty I used to be able to add 'text' to the boot options on the live cd and I would end up in a logged in shell. I opened bug 434769 to cover this regression.

| mikefletcher_ | cjwatson: X crashes my pc when the livecd boots. Is there any other way to get a logged in text console on a livecd? | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | only ones very early in weird environments | 16:15 |
| cjwatson | well | 16:15 |
| cjwatson | you could boot with 'break=casper-bottom' as a kernel argument, then run: | 16:16 |
| cjwatson | sed -i 's/basename \$f/& .conf/g' /scripts/casper-bottom/25configure_init | 16:17 |
| cjwatson | exit 0 | 16:17 |
| cjwatson | that ought to fix it | 16:17 |
| cjwatson | but you'd have to do that every boot, it's not a great workaround | 16:17 |
| mikefletcher_ | cjwatson: ok, I will try that. I just need to setup something to grab x logs after it dies. Thank you very much. | 16:18 |
| davmor2 | evand: that's the all new generic wubi's bost bug | 17:05 |
| cjwatson | you know, I wonder if http://paste.ubuntu.com/282302/ is the source of some of this wubi trouble too | 17:36 |
| cjwatson | nothing handles the loop variable, so --set=loop is pretty odd | 17:36 |
