stgraber | cjwatson: thanks for fixing bug 948559 | 15:08 |
---|---|---|
ubot2` | Launchpad bug 948559 in vlan "eth* NIC names hardcoded" [Medium,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/948559 | 15:08 |
cjwatson | stgraber: regex-tastic | 15:21 |
stgraber | yeah, I had a look at the diff ;) | 15:26 |
brendand | is it usual for ubiquity to install grub on every disk attached to a system? | 15:48 |
cjwatson | yes | 15:48 |
cjwatson | required for robustness since there is no guarantee about which one will be the first disk according to the BIOS | 15:48 |
brendand | it seems it effectively destroyed a disk for someone as it installed grub over the blocks which stored the encryption software (i guess) | 15:50 |
brendand | not sure if that's the right way to put it | 15:50 |
brendand | something called truecrypt | 15:50 |
cjwatson | that would need to be handled in grub itself rather than some kind of gross installer hack | 15:54 |
cjwatson | interaction with truecrypt is a known issue but I don't know what's been done about it | 15:55 |
cjwatson | I doubt it's as simple as just avoiding the disk since there are probably people who want grub to actually be able to read from truecrypted disks | 15:55 |
cjwatson | I believe there's still a drop-down somewhere in ubiquity that lets you install grub to a partition instead | 15:56 |
cjwatson | and then you could chainload it from truecrypt | 15:56 |
cjwatson | e.g. http://pzolee.blogs.balabit.com/2010/07/grub2-and-truecrypt-windows-linux-dual-boot-system/ | 15:56 |
brendand | cjwatson, so it's likely to affect all linux installers, right? | 16:01 |
cjwatson | brendand: any installers that install to disk rather than to a partition by default | 16:04 |
cjwatson | which is grub2's recommended approach but it won't be the case for all Linux distributions | 16:05 |
cyphermox | cjwatson: I'd like your opinion on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/948217; I'm trying to fix these reported cases of NetworkManager not managing connections after an alternate install; seems like ifblacklist_migrate.sh was missing something | 16:28 |
ubot2` | Launchpad bug 948217 in network-manager "wireless devices are not managed when installing from alternate" [High,In progress] | 16:28 |
cyphermox | slangasek helped with fixing up a better sed to deal with the changes | 16:29 |
bdmurray | there are still some outstanding wubi merge proposals at https://code.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-installer/wubi/trunk/+activereviews | 16:45 |
cjwatson | yeah, I was meaning to look at bcbc's at least | 16:48 |
stgraber | cjwatson: I'm happy to look at the wubi merge proposals later today/tomorrow if you're busy with other things. I believe I still have the needed build environment here (required some tweaking to work with amd64) and I can borrow highvoltage's windows machine for testing ;) | 18:01 |
cjwatson | cyphermox: sorry for slow response, queued up | 18:13 |
cjwatson | will need to think about it :) | 18:13 |
cjwatson | stgraber: certainly wouldn't object, we can race | 18:13 |
cyphermox | cjwatson: sure, np. mostly just checking with you if we didn't forget something that would make this a bad idea | 18:35 |
CIA-32 | wubi: stgraber * r258 wubi/debian/changelog: Update changelog | 18:59 |
stgraber | cjwatson: Is it correct that wubi isn't covered by the Canonical contributing agreement? (not listed at http://www.canonical.com/contributors) | 19:08 |
stgraber | cjwatson: just want to check before I merge from bcbc | 19:08 |
stgraber | right, wubi wasn't initialy written by Canonical (confirmed by debian/copyright), so assuming it's not covered by the contributing agreement then | 20:36 |
