| stgraber | cjwatson: still about casper, I'd like to have your opinion on http://paste.ubuntu.com/770419/ as a fix of bug 290351 | 19:41 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 290351 in casper "live session user and host should be called kubuntu on kubuntu" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/290351 | 19:41 |
| stgraber | cjwatson: I confirmed it works on Edubuntu (yay for kvm letting you boot with an external kernel and initrd ;)) and it should work on pretty much anything that doesn't give us an invalid username | 19:42 |
| stgraber | I also did a quick check in casper's code to ensure we use $USERNAME everywhere (and we do!) | 19:42 |
| stgraber | I'm just wondering if we have cases where .disk/info exists but contains something that's invalid or something that wouldn't give us the intended username | 19:43 |
| GrueMaster | Does anyone here know how to set the mac address on the image during netinstall through preseed? I have several platforms that the only nic doesn't have static mac (no flash). I can set it in the kernel parameters when booting netinstall, but need netinstall to transfer that to the running system. | 19:54 |
| GrueMaster | ubuntu | 19:59 |
| GrueMaster | bah. wrong window. | 20:00 |
| stgraber | GrueMaster: and knowing you, I'm guessing that's on ARM? so preseeding grub's kernel parameters won't help right? | 20:01 |
| GrueMaster | Yea, grub-free environment. :P | 20:01 |
| stgraber | ok, and I guess flash-kernel still doesn't have a configuration or anything you could change to add a kernel paramemter... | 20:02 |
| GrueMaster | I think I can only set it on the boot cmdline. I'm checking if I can just append to /etc/network/interfaces. | 20:02 |
| stgraber | you could do it the ugly way in /etc/network/interfaces by using a pre-up on the interface with something like "ifconfig eth0 hw addr aa:bb:cc:dd:ee:ff" | 20:02 |
| stgraber | I can't remember if ifupdown has a standard way of doing it though | 20:02 |
| GrueMaster | Well, for Panda, kernels from Natty+ set the mac from the cpu die-id. Maverick is borked. Also omap. | 20:02 |
| GrueMaster | sigh. Looks like it needs to be a module parameter. And since this module is built-in to the kernel, it needs to be on the kernel cmdline. | 20:10 |
| GrueMaster | Which means editing /boot/boot.script. | 20:10 |
| CIA-4 | partman-auto: superm1 * r618 partman-auto/ (4 files in 4 dirs): | 20:25 |
| CIA-4 | partman-auto: Remove the use of 'local' in shell scripts outside of functions. Newer | 20:25 |
| CIA-4 | partman-auto: shell script interpreters in precise complain otherwise. | 20:25 |
| CIA-4 | partman-auto: superm1 * r619 partman-auto/debian/changelog: releasing version 93ubuntu18 | 20:27 |
| GrueMaster | stgraber: I'm going to have to hack it in for panda. Only need it for maverick and I am using a hand-assembled netinstaller anyways. I'll revisit when I need this for beagleXM and other platforms. | 20:29 |
| cjwatson | stgraber: seems OK, I think - maybe allow it to be overridden by an explicit FLAVOUR= in casper.conf (i.e. && [ -z "$FLAVOUR" ] around the whole thing)? | 20:45 |
| stgraber | cjwatson: good idea, I'll add that, then upload what I have so far and test the next dailies, I don't like uploading more than 4-5 casper changes at a time :) | 20:46 |
| cjwatson | superm1: nice catch, thanks | 20:46 |
| superm1 | sure np | 20:46 |
| roadmr | hey folks, Ubiquity is giving me an [Errno 5] Input/output error with a bunch of SQUASHFS errors (inflate error, failed to read block, fragment cache entry) | 21:35 |
| roadmr | this is a network install with a preseed file, I tried to rule out the usual suspects (network corruption, memory, hard disk failure ) so far all the tests have passed | 21:36 |
| roadmr | I know the installation image itself is OK because I've installed other systems with the same | 21:36 |
| roadmr | any more ideas on how to diagnose this? :) | 21:37 |
| CIA-4 | ubiquity: stgraber * r5111 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog scripts/plugininstall.py): Recent casper generates the username and hostname based on the media name, replacing hardcoded casper_user by the username of uid 999. | 22:04 |
