| _robbat2|irssi | despite my cloak, i am poking installing Ubuntu on some gear, and despite being in the expert mode, I cannot find how to do something I want | 20:10 |
| _robbat2|irssi | specifically, on some new Dell servers, I want GPT instead of the msdos partition table | 20:10 |
| charlie-tca | _robbat2|irssi: I think you switch to a tty, using Alt+F2, and use either gparted or parted to create the partition table and partitions then. Use Alt+F1 or F7 to get back to the installer screen and continue the install | 20:17 |
| _robbat2|irssi | i'm doing it via install over SSH, so no Alt-F2 | 20:21 |
| charlie-tca | someone will step up soon, to help. I don't really know how to do it over SSH | 20:22 |
| _robbat2|irssi | err, and efter execute shell, there's no gparted or parted binaries | 20:22 |
| _robbat2|irssi | just a weird parted_server | 20:22 |
| _robbat2|irssi | ISO it's booted on it the 10.04 LTS server | 20:23 |
| _robbat2|irssi | maybe i should just reboot this to Gentoo, partition and LVM all of it, then reboot back to the installer and just assign the partitions | 20:24 |
| _robbat2|irssi | similarly in your installer, no way to get binary SI units, it seems to be decimal units only | 20:25 |

| _robbat2|irssi | charlie-tca: for reference: expert mode, add the parted-udeb, then parted is available, and you can do it manually and drop back into the partitioning ncurses UI for doing RAID/LVM if you want | 23:32 |
| _robbat2|irssi | and now GRUB2 refuses to install, without much output from grub-install either | 23:38 |
| _robbat2|irssi | suggestions welcome, i'll read backlog in 12-16 hours | 23:39 |
