[11:08] <CIA-3> usb-creator: Change the team from the Installer Team to usb-creator Hackers to
[11:08] <CIA-3> usb-creator: match the bzr ACL.
[11:09] <xnox> I got virt-manager to boot of usb-stick created with usb-creator =)))) Whoop =)))) also got Windows VM running in virt-manager (thanks for XP license from GSoC)
[11:26] <ev> nice
[11:27] <ev> Google gave you one for free, or you bought one with funding from GSoC?
[11:29] <ev> xnox: I'm assuming this using the USB disk as a hard drive in kvm/virt-manager?  Do note that alternate CDs will not work when used in that way as debian-installer scans the USB bus for install sources (look for try-usb in the cdrom-detect source if you're curious).
[11:30] <xnox> ev, yes, I made my host /dev/sdc to become /dev/sda in the VM and boot from that
[11:31] <xnox> ev, I saw the blog-post from lucas about this and I will took into debian-installer code

[22:18] <cnd> I've got a system that didn't install properly because the live usb was /dev/sda and the HD was /dev/sdb during installation
[22:19] <cnd> it seems everything is fine except grub didn't get installed to /dev/sdb
[22:19] <cnd> I tried installing grub: sudo grub-install /dev/sdb, but it didn't help
[22:19] <cnd> any ideas?
[22:19] <cnd> cjwatson: ^^?
[22:36] <shtylman> cnd: does it not boot? ... can you just run the install again and select /dev/sdb during the final step by using the advanced dialog?
[22:37] <cnd> shtylman: it boots when I use my live usb, because the live usb says root is (hd1,1), but that turns out to be my HD
[22:39] <shtylman> what do you mean when you use your live usb? use the live usb to boot from first HD?
[22:40] <shtylman> can you boot into the installed system at all?
[23:19] <cnd> shtylman: sorry for the delay, I've installed to the HD, which boots as (hd1,1) in grub and /dev/sdb in linux when the usb stick is plugged in
[23:19] <cnd> so when I boot from the usb stick, it boots from (hd1,1) thinking that is itself, when in reality it is the HD
[23:20] <cnd> so I can boot to ubuntu on the HD, but only by booting through the usb stick grub
