CarlFKwhere are the partition recipes defined?  https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-contents.html#preseed-partman01:59
CarlFKgah, no /boot in # - multi:  separate /home, /usr, /var, and /tmp partitions02:00
CarlFKmeh, planning ahead is too much work.  don't need it right now.02:01

* ogra_ tries to write an initrd tarball installer (for the ac100) ... i would like to have the md5sum of the tarball in the initrd (to make sure they match up) and i'm worndering if there is a way to achieve that without repacking the initrd12:41
ogra_(or if there is possibly a udeb providing such functionallity already that i could just use (though i woud have to swithc to d-i for that indeed))12:42
cjwatsonperhaps it would be easier to use multiple initrds12:42
ogra_well, the one i use for install will be trashed at the end of the install anyway12:43
ogra_the tarball contains oem-config so update-initramfs will be called at the end12:43
ogra_which actually gets me to another thing i noticed, if we run update-inaitramfs we dont set the reboot notification trigger, i think we shuld12:44
ogra_*should12:44
cjwatsonI mean multiple initrds *at once* - you can have two (or more) initramfses and they get overlaid12:46
ogra_oh12:46
ogra_hmm12:46
ogra_that will need fine suregery then i think, i only have 8M for all of kernel initrd and bootloader on the device ... but i'll look into it12:47
ogra_*surgery12:47
cjwatsonit shouldn't make much difference to size - it's just another gzipped cpio archive tacked on the end12:52
cjwatsonI think you may even be able to cat it onto the end of another initramfs if your bootloader is too stupid to be able to load multiple initramfses itself12:52
ogra_yeah, thats what i read everywhere, i should be simply able to cat them ... i'll try12:58
ogra_the bootloader has a second stage option that i possibly could abose, i doubt fastboot can take multiple initrd files though, at least in the incarnation the ac100 uses13:00
dpmhi cjwatson, I know I've asked you this in the past, but I can't quite remember: I'm looking at the LP transaltions imports queue and I see 'templates.pot' templates for the 'localechooser' and 'choosemirror' source packages. Are these translations merged into the debian-installer .pot file and should thus be disabled in launchpad?14:37
cjwatsondpm: yeah (if you mean choose-mirror rather than choosemirror)14:39
dpmcjwatson, yeah I meant that one, thanks :)14:40
