aracjwatson, good morning08:20
cjwatsonara: hi11:23
aracjwatson, hey11:24
aracjwatson, I pinged you only to comment that OEM is not working for UNR11:24

ubottuLaunchpad bug 456990 in ubiquity "OEM Mode is not working for Ubuntu Netbook Remix" [Critical,Incomplete]11:24
aracjwatson, but evand took it11:25

CIA-33grub-installer: cjwatson * r823 ubuntu/debian/changelog: releasing version 1.43ubuntu713:09
evandcjwatson: boots if I wait sufficiently long enough.  Removing iso9660 had no effect.  I'm going to keep poking at it while I work on other things.13:47
evandara: what's the output of `sudo debconf-get oem-config/enable` once you're in the live environment and have verified that ubiquity is still not running in oem mode?13:53
araevand, I did the installation directly from the menu, not through the live environment, but I'll try again with the live environment13:54
evandthanks13:55
araevand, nothing, it just returns to the command line14:00
evandhrm, sounds like isolinux/gfxboot14:00
evanderr I misread14:02
evandhrm, very odd14:03
araevand, is 100% reproducible in the mini9 I am using for testing14:06
evandara: is this on a CD or USB disk (just to rule out usb-creator mangling as the culprit)14:07
araevand, usb disk14:08
araevand, I tried creating it again, but it happens again14:08
evandokay, let me see if I can reproduce it using one, and failing that, borrowing a mini 9.14:08
davmor2cjwatson: something isn't happy for wubi on unr  I just get a black screen14:32
evanddavmor2: where do you get a black screen?14:33
davmor2evand: I get grub,  I get the pulsing Ubu icon then blank14:35
davmor2no disk activity14:35
evanddavmor2: what happens if you remove "quiet splash" from the options?14:36
davmor2no flashing leds on the keyboard either14:36
davmor2trying now14:36
davmor2evand: /init:  line 1: can't open /dev/sda: No medium found repeated over and over with different /devs on the machine.  Then finally busybox14:39
evanddavmor2: and "quiet splash" is all you removed?14:43
davmor2evand: yeap14:44
evandperhaps try chkdsk and try again?14:45
davmor2evand: is it worth trying it again14:45
davmor2beat me to it :)14:45
evandthat is, chkdsk /r14:45
davmor2evand: right windows says the hd is fine.  kne just installed, tried unr again same thing15:25
evanddavmor2: can you copy the casper.log out (usb disk will probably be easiest) and pastebin it?15:28
davmor2evand: yeap if I can 2 ticks15:29
evandthanks15:30
davmor2evand: no /var/log , I'm assuming that is where the casper.log should be?15:32
evandin /15:32
evand /casper.log15:32
davmor22 ticks then :)15:32
davmor2evand: hopefully http://pastebin.com/f7650c23115:35
davmor2evand: shall I open a bug and add this and the wubi logs?15:40
evandplease15:40
evandcat /proc/cmdline would equally help15:41
davmor2evand: bug 457246 wubi log is large didn't realise it kept using the same log so head straight for the bottom :)   I'll get you proc line now15:48
ubottuError: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out (https://launchpad.net/bugs/457246)15:48
davmor2evand: added proc line to bug15:55
davmor2evand: anything else?15:57
evandnot for the moment, no15:58
araevand, some findings around the OEM + UNR test16:05
araevand, using anyother iso (kubuntu desktop in this case) in the same mini9, the bug reproduces16:06
araevand, but, strangly, when I press F4 and select OEM, the option gets selected correctly16:06
araevand, but, then, a normal installation starts16:06
evandokay thanks16:10

xivulondavmor2, evand, wubi is looking for the ISO and for some reason it cannot access the device where it is loaded16:17
xivulondavmor2 see if you can manually mount the partition that contains the ISO16:17
evandcjwatson: where are the menu entries for gfxboot defined these days?  gfxboot-theme-ubuntu seems to be missing at least OEM mode and free software mode, unless grep -ri is totally failing me.16:18
cjwatsondebian-cd16:18
cjwatsong-t-u just does the translations16:18
cjwatsonI think you have a grep bug though16:19
cjwatsonpo/bootloader.pot:323:#. txt_menuitem_oem16:19
cjwatsonpo/bootloader.pot:324:msgid "OEM install (for manufacturers)"16:19
evandoh no, I saw that much.  But as you say that's just the translations16:19
cjwatsonpo/bootloader.pot:378:#. txt_option_free16:19
cjwatsonpo/bootloader.pot:379:msgid "Free software only"16:19
cjwatsonOEM mode is on the F4 menu and is in debian-cd/tools/boot/karmic/boot-*16:20
cjwatsonfree software only mode is on the F6 menu and is in gfxboot-theme-ubuntu/dia_fulloptions.inc16:20
davmor2xivulon: yeap I can manually mount it16:20
evandcjwatson: thanks16:21
davmor2xivulon: all the others passed flawlessly it's only this one.  Can't stop on it now though need to get on16:21
evandI think my wubi issue is a bug in kvm16:37
evandif I completely shut down the computer after install, and then boot, wubildr works fine16:38
evandI think this may have something to do with the fact that kvm cannot read the CD boot code on reboot, for whatever reason16:39
evandperhaps it's a red herring, but I suspect grub is having a hard time with this as well16:39
bdmurrayI ran into bug 456938 the other night when doing an install.16:50
ubottuError: Could not parse data returned by Launchpad: The read operation timed out (https://launchpad.net/bugs/456938)16:50
cjwatsonevand: oh, yeah, I've noticed similar things16:58
evandgiven that the CD would be ejected on real hardware (something that KVM really should virtualize), I think we're okay.  I'll file the kvm bug though, if it doesn't already exists17:01
evandbdmurray: was this using the option to not format / ?17:06
bdmurrayevand: yes, I was trying to preserve home17:07
evandwhat version of ubuntu was on there?17:07
bdmurray~8.04.217:07
evandhrm, it should have cleared out /usr/sbin17:08
xivulondavmor2 can you run in verbose mode and post the log?17:11
xivulonYou might have to add set -x in casper/scripts/lupin-helpers17:16
evandcjwatson: any ideas on bdmurray's bug?  I cannot see how it's possible, given that we carefully check for and remove files and symlinks that already exist.17:19
cjwatsonnothing jumped out at me ...17:23
evandin all seriousness, I wish we had a "mystery" state in LP17:29
evandI feel like "confirmed" and "new" are wrong for such bugs.17:30
davmor2xivulon: not till after I get the rest tested now I'm afraid falling behind17:44
