[13:16] hey guys. Is anyone aware of boot issues with iMac. specifically back-track KDE/64. when booting the process breaks and I'm presented with a blinking cursor at the boot: interface. [16:26] ev: I'm feeling like 'Implement "Continue my failed upgrade" in the installer using the /var/log/apt-clone' (desktop-p-improve-upgrade-experience) should probably be postponed at this point - what do you think? [16:26] it seems rather here-be-dragons [16:26] (nice though it would be) [16:28] ev, Hey. Did you receive an e-mail from l.capriotti@xbmc.org with a question about Ubiquity? [16:34] ev: oh, maybe that was a sabdfl thing, hmm [16:51] dragons [16:51] big ones with sharp teeth [16:51] though mvo would know better than I [16:52] cody-somerville: we had an email exchange ages ago [16:52] where ages is defined as november [17:06] ev, He mentioned he sent you another one yesterday. [17:09] The most recent one I have is actually 11/10/2011 (not November as originally stated) [17:09] unless he sent it using a different address [17:16] ev, hmm... Well, he is having an issue with a pink banner appearing instead of congratulations. He shared this picture with me: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/269/img0158iq.jpg/ [17:30] cody-somerville: they haven't set a GTK theme [17:33] ev, I figured it was probably something like that. Thanks. === maxb is now known as Guest79372 [18:07] ubiquity: cjwatson * r5186 trunk/tests/ (7 files): PEP-8 import ordering in test suite. [18:12] it warms the cockles of my heart to see another person diligently hacking away on the test suite :) [18:14] that was mostly just OCD :) [20:24] cody-somerville: saw something similar happen in mythbuntu ISOs a release or two ago. best workaround was to set the GTK theme from casper [21:21] Hi folks, I'm creating a new partman-auto/expert_recipe for an 8.04/10.04 installation [21:22] and I'd like to use the same partitioning scheme in both releases but with a different $default_filesystem{ } for each [21:22] I'm trying to avoid creating two files, one for ext3 and one for ext4, 8.04 and 10.04 respectively [21:23] Using the ::=___ [21:23] declaration in my preseed [21:25] or to ask the question more concisely, how do i specify the default filesystem in an expert_recipe? [21:25] ;) [21:27] I have read partman-auto-recipe.txt over a dozen times [21:27] This really needs more documentation [23:17] jenders: it's probably easier to just independently preseed partman/default_filesystem to the default filesystem you want [23:17] oh, but that was added in jaunty [23:17] i.e. 9.04 [23:18] so you can't use this approach for sharing a recipe between 8.04 and 10.04; sorry [23:48] thanks cjwatson [23:48] also, i hate to do this, but i just noticed partman/early_command [23:49] I may subvert partman entirely and just do my partioning manually and then instruct partman to leave the disk alone in >=10.04 (the first place i noticed partman/early_command existing) [23:49] it really /is/ a headache [23:51] cjwatson: is gpt support a planned feature in partman? I think libparted supports this
