[01:13] <TheMuso> ev: You? :)
[01:13] <ev> I'm typing this from my iPhone :)
[01:14] <TheMuso> ah.
[01:14] <ev> Things hadn't quite hit the archive when I left the office

[09:16] <ev> cjwatson: oh, awesome thanks
[09:17] <ev> looking now
[09:18] <ev> cjwatson: I don't know why it's not showing up in the logs, but that definitely is the missing import bug
[09:19] <ev> ubiquity 2.6.6 would not display the partitioning page because of it
[09:19] <ev> so it would jump straight to timezone and so on
[09:20] <cjwatson> mkay, I was just wondering about the weird m-a errors that showed up in the lolg
[09:20] <cjwatson> *log
[09:20] <cjwatson> I guess that's because it isn't getting any input from partitioning?
[09:21] <cjwatson> .oO( we should have some way for plugins to mark themselves as fail-whole-installer-if-they-fail, or something )
[09:21] <ev> the permission denied ones?
[09:21] <cjwatson> yeah
[09:21] <ev> I've seen that somewhere else yesterday
[09:21] <ev> but it doesn't make much sense, given the loop body that's associated with
[09:22] <cjwatson> I didn't see anything obvious there either
[09:22] <cjwatson> oh well, if you think it's the missing import bug we can just close it
[09:22] <cjwatson> can I draw your attention to slangasek's question in #-release too ...
[09:25] <ev> marking themselves as failing> there used to be a test in the harness for pages just not loading.  I'd like to resurrect this.
[09:25] <ev> mind you, it doesn't completely solve the problem

[10:02] <ev> hm, I wonder if the db sync fixed this
[10:18] <ev> hmm, it wasn't broken before that
[11:37] <Kurisutian> cjwatson: Hi! How is it? Did those logfiles help with finding out what's going wrong on the server install?
[11:40] <cjwatson> Kurisutian: I backported the patch that phcoder applied upstream after your questions on #grub; that should help
[11:40] <cjwatson> Kurisutian: try today's server install CD?
[11:43] <Kurisutian> cjwatson: Thank you very much for that. Unfortunately I can't access the servers today since university is closed today due to easter holyday.... I will download a daily build next week and get back to you if that is fine with you, too...
[11:48] <cjwatson> sure
[11:48] <cjwatson> (though any changes will probably have to be post-release updates at this point, or oneiric if they're installer problems)
[11:57] <Kurisutian> cjwatson: Well as long as I could help with the problem. May I ask what the cause was of this trouble I experienced? I'm just asking out of curiosity since I have not find a way to install at all with the given options... ;-)
[12:16] <cjwatson> Kurisutian: phcoder (upstream) said that your btrfs filesystem used "huge chunks"
[12:16] <cjwatson> which weren't supported by GRUB's btrfs code
[12:16] <cjwatson> Kurisutian: I can't say for sure that this is the same thing
[12:16] <cjwatson> it may still break
[12:17] <cjwatson> but I don't have time to cram any more patches for it into 11.04, so if it's broken, we'll have to work it out in 11.10 and you should use a more stable filesystem in the meantime
[12:17] <Kurisutian> cjwatson: that's strange because I only used the plain ubuntu-server install cds to create the btrfs filesystem.... the other distro was not ubuntu.....
[12:17] <cjwatson> then I don't know
[12:17] <cjwatson> sorry, may not be fixed then.
[12:19] <Kurisutian> cjwatson: Is there a way to migrate from ext4 which works fine during installation to btrfs? I mean will that work like it does on my other distro? So I might be able to use it that way.... I'd use ext4 if it wasn't for the snapshots that come in handy because of what our project with the server does....
[12:19] <cjwatson> I have no idea
[12:19] <cjwatson> you could use LVM
[12:25] <Kurisutian> cjwatson: I'll take a look at it. We might have to go back to ext4 and aufs (http://aufs.sf.net) till we can upgrade.... the snapshots should be used to create different layers for mounting a variety of different settings on top of a existing general ubuntu installation. This is how we're creating a PXE TFTP Netboot environment.... unfortunately the default ubuntu kernel misses on a certain option so I have to
[12:25] <Kurisutian> manually compile a kernel for AUFS... that's why we wanted to switch to btrfs also.... but hey, thank you very much for helping, I really appreciate it a lot! :-)
[12:27] <davmor2> ev, cjwatson: does ubiquity now include the ability to install the binary drivers from the web for unity to work out of the box?
[12:27] <ev> davmor2: yes
[12:27] <ev> check the 3rd party software box
[12:28] <ev> which will tell jockey to install the nvidia driver if it's present
[12:29] <davmor2> ev: cool,  I'm looking to do an install on this box over the long weekend in order to get rid of the cruft on it,  starting to become unbearably slow
[12:31] <cjwatson> Kurisutian: sorry I couldn't do better, but we've just run out of time
[12:33] <Kurisutian> cjwatson: Don't be sorry about that. I'm not blaming you at all. As a matter of fact I really appreciate you being so supportive in here and giving your best to help. I think that's awesome! Besides that, we've been running the system on aufs before and can always fall back to that.... so no worry... ;-)

[17:08] <maxb> Does anyone know of a way, in preseeding, to trigger an upgrade of all packages before the debian-installer run ends?
[17:08] <maxb> pkgsel/upgrade is unfortunately not useful, as its upgrade step seems to operate before the final apt configuration has been installed, so it misses bits.
[17:27] <cjwatson> maxb: preseed/late_command?
[17:28] <maxb> I had a go - I was hoping someone had tried it - the upgrade hung during cups-bsd prerm, invoking update-inetd
[17:30] <cjwatson> ev: shouldn't we have set show_alpha_warning back to false?

[17:31] <mterry> Hello!  I just downloaded a nightly daily-live iso and tried installing, but never got a question about where to install Ubuntu.  And now I'm being shown a slideshow but no progress bar...
[17:32] <mterry> ev, is that normal?  ^
[17:32] <ev> mterry: known issue
[17:32] <ev> it will be fixed in the next daily-live CD
[17:32] <mterry> ah k
[17:33] <ev> (basically, ubi-partman crashed)
[17:33] <mterry> ev, thanks!
[17:34] <ev> in the meantime, you can probably just upgrade the copy of ubiquity on the CD, as I imagine the publisher has been run by now
[17:34] <cjwatson> ev: AFAICS, the alpha warning is shown on the KDE frontend language page
[17:34] <mterry> ev, heh, hadn't thought of that.  will try
[17:34] <ev> ugh
[17:34] <cjwatson> so I think we need a quick upload to set that to false
