brendand | we're doing preseed installs and we have a situation where a system may or may not have a usb stick inserted on boot. either way we don't want to install on the usb stick | 11:11 |
brendand | problem is that it comes up as sda | 11:12 |
brendand | how can we make the preseed use some common sense? | 11:13 |

ogra_ | i wasnt aware we actually started building gtkfb images ... is that on purpose ? | 11:21 |
Armandeg | hey, anyone here? | 13:49 |
Armandeg | Hey, there were some of you who wanted info on USB network install and stuff... Please go check out armandeg.blogspot.com I make a few posts, please comment if you want any answers.... | 13:50 |
Armandeg | just good for later/background knowledge | 13:51 |
stgraber | ogra_: AFAIK we do it because d-i does it by default, I don't think anyone actually tests them though ;) | 14:24 |
stgraber | jibel: I'm working on installer bugs now, so if you see anything critical, let me know | 14:24 |
stgraber | jibel: I'll have a quick look at bug 936115 to confirm it's a duplicate of bug 939450, then work some more on bug 898278 | 14:25 |

stgraber | jibel: ok, it's not a duplicate ;) looking at what's wrong now | 14:43 |
stgraber | jibel: this one seems like an easy fix though, apparently something changed in a recent gtk requiring an extra parameter | 14:52 |
ogra_ | stgraber, ah, makes sense | 14:54 |
stgraber | jibel: right-click should just do nothing right? | 14:59 |
* stgraber should have an older version of Ubuntu running in anthoer VM to compare... | 14:59 | |
stgraber | hmm, the bug says I should get a contextual menu ... checking on 11.10 ... | 15:01 |
jibel | stgraber, testing with oneiric | 15:02 |
stgraber | jibel: just tested, 11.10 doesn't have a contextual menu | 15:02 |
stgraber | so I guess my fix is right then | 15:02 |
jibel | useless feature just here to crash the installer, nice :) | 15:03 |
stgraber | jibel: anything else that you see critical for beta1 so far? bug 898278 is milestoned for b1 so I'll have a look at it next but it's not really omg-critical | 15:05 |

jibel | stgraber, not on the installer side | 15:07 |
jibel | stgraber, there is bug 940908 | 15:07 |

jibel | but I can't reproduce it | 15:07 |
jibel | pitti tried too and it worked | 15:08 |
stgraber | ok, will poke at the upgrade bug then for now | 15:08 |
jibel | I think it's due to persistence on usb | 15:09 |
jibel | stgraber, I confirm bug 940908 | 15:13 |
ubot2` | Launchpad bug 940908 in ubiquity "Cannot localize keyboard at startup in live session" [Undecided,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/940908 | 15:13 |
jibel | it only happens from usb on bare metal | 15:13 |
jibel | in that case XKBLAYOUT is set to 'us | 15:14 |
jibel | ' in /etc/default/keyboard | 15:14 |
jibel | even is the language is non-english | 15:14 |
jibel | i'll update the bug report | 15:14 |
stgraber | jibel: does it only happen when you allow for some persistent storage on USB or even without persistent storage? | 15:15 |
jibel | stgraber, I created usb with persistence, but the bug occurs on 1rst boot | 15:15 |
jibel | stgraber, I'll retry without | 15:16 |
stgraber | jibel: thanks. My understanding of the USB key stuff is that unless you turn on persistence, it should be identical to a live image | 15:18 |
jibel | stgraber, it only occurs with persistence enabled | 15:32 |
stgraber | jibel: ok, can you pastebin the list of all files on the usb stick just after creating it with persistence enabled? | 15:33 |
stgraber | jibel: I want to check if for some reason usb-creator is copying/creating some files | 15:33 |
jibel | stgraber, http://paste.ubuntu.com/859367/ | 16:11 |
CIA-32 | ubiquity: stgraber * r5218 ubiquity/ (debian/changelog ubiquity/plugins/ubi-partman.py): Add logic to detect a newer (or same version) target and only propose an 'upgrade' when the target is indeed older. | 16:15 |
stgraber | bdmurray: ^ finally ;) | 16:15 |
bdmurray | stgraber: great! | 16:17 |
stgraber | bdmurray: I "think" it should be fine in most cases, it might be a bit confused when the target is an alpha and uses a codename instead of version. In such case it won't allow to upgrade which I think is fine. | 16:18 |
stgraber | jibel: what's casper-rw? is that a partition? if so, can you mount it and list its content too? | 16:20 |
jibel | stgraber, I guess it is the permanent storage. It's an empty ext3 filesystem | 16:35 |
jibel | only contains lost+found | 16:35 |
stgraber | ok | 16:37 |
stgraber | ok, looking at bug 645449 now, hopefully I can get that one fixed for good ... | 16:59 |
