| lcapriotti | hi, I'm trying to exec a text-based installer when system has completed booting: http://www.friendpaste.com/1DWFdkL9xtCR9mBXF5XQZL | 10:56 |
|---|---|---|
| lcapriotti | but the text installer cannot accept inputs | 10:56 |
| lcapriotti | the login prompt is shown instead, superimposed with installer text output | 10:57 |
| mgoetze | well, you should tell your login job not to start until the installer is done, of course | 10:57 |
| mgoetze | and then you'll want something like "exec < /dev/console" in your script | 10:58 |
| lcapriotti | what is I don't want/can't modify the tty1 upstart job? | 10:59 |
| lcapriotti | would something like exec su -c "myInstaller" -l work? | 10:59 |
| ion | exec openvt command | 11:03 |
| lcapriotti | pls speculate | 11:04 |
| lcapriotti | ion: exec openvt -s command worked, tks a lot! | 11:19 |

| kindjal | Is there a target date for upstart 0.10 (even roughly)? I'm interested in the "automatic" and "manual" feature being discussed for the 0.10 release. | 15:39 |
| sadmac2 | kindjal: its kind of in "when its done" mode, but I think we'd like to have it in the next 6 months | 15:41 |
| sadmac2 | well, we'd like to have it today, and release dates are meant to be broken, but... | 15:41 |
| kindjal | Understood. "it's done when it's done" is very understandable... I was just curious as to where it stood. Thanks. | 15:42 |
| kindjal | If I require a "chkconfig" like functionality for upstart, am I thus sort of stuck with a "link job files into /etc/init" until then? | 15:43 |
| kindjal | By "chkconfig" I guess I really mean just "enable/disable" a job | 15:47 |
| sadmac2 | kindjal: yes. though that's what chkconfig is anyway :) | 15:52 |
| kindjal | Yes... but upstart could eliminate the concept of "runlevel" which is sort of chkconfig's focus. | 15:52 |
