journeemanHello. I am trying to install Precise Beta2 AMD64 in Virtualbox. The installation menu appears and once I select `Install Ubuntu Server' the console goes blank. It's not accessing the disk or the network at all.05:05
journeemanAny suggestions? Thanks in advance.05:05
twbjourneeman: hit f6, add nomodeset (IIRC)05:16
journeemantwb: okay05:16
twbIOW force it to use 80x25 VGA console instead of fancier grahpics05:16
twbThat's just a guess, I don't have vbox05:16
journeemanOh okay05:16
journeemantwb: It worked once. There was a segfault error and got the installation steps menu. Any option I selected failed. Tried to save the debug logs but that failed too. Tried rebooting with nomodeset but just hangs like before.05:41

_rubenthat's one tricky scenario...13:16
lynxmanjamespage: I'd say it's plenty justified, puppet shouldn't be running during d-r-u otherwise it'll try to enforce the wrong things, also it shouldn't start automatically afterwards either IMHO13:16
lynxmanjamespage: but I'd say that's something a bit more on the sysadmin side of planning rather than the OS trying to outsmart him, restarting puppet after d-r-u can also be fatal13:17

tarvidwhen I switched from dhcp to static networking broke on 12.0413:36
tarvidhttp://paste.ubuntu.com/911465/13:37
tarvidthis project is dead in the water without networking13:37
tarvidI can ping a neighbor but I cannot ping my gateway13:38
Kialltarvid, what does "broke" mean exactly?13:39
KiallAlso.. It looks like those settings are wrong13:40
tarvidwhat looks wrong13:40
Kiall"70.167.242.233" with a netmask of "255.255.255.224" means you are assigning the network address to the server13:40
tarvidbroke means I can ping a neighbor but I cannot ping my gateway13:40
Kiallactually13:40
Kiallnevermind13:40
KiallMy CIDR-fu has a momentary lapse there ;) Could you ping the GW beforehand with DHCP?13:42
tarvidon myn laptop I set a static address with the network manager GUI and it works13:42
tarvidI have a different gaterway on DHCP but indeed I did updates13:42
tarvidbut I can't get back to DHCP either13:43
KiallOkay, and from other servers using the same GW, can you ping the GW? (Sometimes, ping is blocked etc etc)13:43
KiallThe config syntax is correct. Assuming the actual settings are also correct, the issue is likely on the GW13:43
tarvidyes I can ping the gateway from the neighbor13:44
tarvidthe route is very different13:45
tarvidI have two nics in the neighbor13:45
KiallOkay, well.. all I can tell you in that case is - the config syntax is correct, considering you can ping the neighbor, I believe the ip/mask are correct.. I would double check the GW IP, and double check the settings have been applied correctly, and after that it's most likely an issue on the GW13:46
Kiall`route -n` and `ifconfig eth0` should let you check the settings have been applied..13:47
tarvidthe neighbor is the only host I can ping, all others are broken13:50
Kiallmaybe an IP conflict so?13:50
tarvidInteresting Bcast:0.0.0.0 on the one that workw13:51

amarcolinodoes anyone know the solution to ubuntu 12.4 not booting even knowing the install was succeful, all I get is a black screen14:02
tarvidgrub is probably broken14:03
amarcolino...14:04
tarvidgrub is written last, if your install was waiting for a response it didn't get grub was not installed14:05
amarcolinomaybe, but based on the install process it did get installed14:06
amarcolinojust trying to avoid doing another clean install considering I might get the same result14:07
greppyamarcolino: a quick google shows this: http://askubuntu.com/questions/110315/ubuntu-11-10-and-12-04-blackscreen-on-boot14:08
ahxcjbhi all14:08
ahxcjbsmoser, utlemming - hi, I'm trying to create a new AMI using ec2-bundle-vol from an Ubuntu EC2 10.04 image. I've successfully done it using an AMI image, but received an error when running it against an EBI store14:10
hallynamarcolino: try alt-leftarrow?14:10
ahxcjbhttp://pastebin.com/9MGn1W9m14:11
smoserahxcjb, well, you probably want create-image for EBS14:11
ahxcjbsmoser: ah14:11
smoserwhat error did you get i wonder?14:11
ahxcjbsmoser: I can run create-image within your ec2 image?14:11
hallynamarcolino: the problem (if that works) is grub.conf is saying to switch to vt 7, which normally runs x but you don't have it.14:11
smoserahxcjb, you can, but you dont have to run it htere.14:11
smoserbasically , for ebs root, you can create a snapshot of the volume14:11
smoserand then register that14:11
ahxcjbsimple as that?14:12
smoserthe cleanest way to do that is to shut the instance down and snapshot the root14:12
ahxcjbok14:12
ahxcjbthanks smoser14:12
ahxcjbwill give it a go now14:12
smoserthere is a option even in the aws UI that will do that.14:12
smoserand it basically does those things..14:12
smoser * shut down instance14:12
smoser * create-snapshot14:12
smoser * register-snapshot14:12
smoser * start instance14:13
ahxcjbI notice I can right click on the ec2 instance and there's a 'create-image' option?14:13
smoserand 'ec2-create-snapshot' is the command line that will dot htat.14:13
smoserright. thats it.14:13
ahxcjbwill it capture all my bash history etc?14:13
ahxcjbif so, i guess i better clear that all out :)14:13
Amougwhy isn't Xinetd used/installed by default ?14:15
amarcolinohallyn, for it to go to v7 it has to boot at least I get no disk activity after the bios splash screen14:17
hallynah14:18
hallyni did have one case where all kernels under /boot seemed to disappear14:18
hallynpretty sure it was my own fault, but dont' knwo what i did.14:19
amarcolinohallyn, maybe I aint asking the right question considering I ommited certain things, is there an issue with 12.4 with an lvm install while boot is on a separate partition/HD?14:20
hallynamarcolino: the only issue I'm aware of is the one that can cause up to 2min wait while waiting for a timeout (i'm hoping that's fixed by now, but not sure)14:21
amarcolinohallyn, ok, will try another clean install and see what happens, thanks for the help14:23
ahxcjbsmoser: looks like it worked.. :)14:29
ahxcjbsmoser: only very slight issue is that the key I tell it to use doesn't get added to authorized_keys14:29
ahxcjbthat does work when I created an instance based store using the ubuntu ec2 image, mind.14:29
smoserahxcjb, it should tstill work14:30
smoseryou launched a new instane from that image ?14:31
ahxcjbyep14:31
ahxcjbbut, i didn't shut down the image first before I snapshotted..14:31
ahxcjblet me try again14:31
smoserwell, you should always shut down the instance, basically  you're snapshotting a dirty filesystem (which will force a fsck)14:31
ahxcjbok, stopping image14:32
hallynstgraber: any problems with my pushing an lxc just to add the mediate_deleted flag?  (I now stop at /dev/mapper/ accesses, but trust you'll work aroudn those with device cgroup?)14:35
stgraberhallyn: nope, sounds good, go ahead. I indeed fixed all devices access using the device cgroup, so that part works as expected14:36
tarvidI see no evidence that dns-nameservers 68.105.28.16, 68.105.29.16 works in either 11.10 or 12.0414:36
hallynstgraber: trying ot figure out whether to add 'LP:' to the changelog or not :)  it works aorund the bug, doesn't fix it...14:37
stgraberhallyn: well, it fixes the problem, so we should close the bug against lxc at least and maybe keep an apparmor task open for these extra flags14:38
hallynthe bug isn't open against lxc :)14:38
hallyni'll open it right quick14:39
hallynstgraber: oh you mean an open bug to remove the extra flags.  i see.14:41

Amougwhich one to use, tcp wrapper or iptables ?16:30
ahxcjbdepends on your usage16:32
ahxcjbif you want application level blocking - ie, user foo can login, but user bar can't16:32
ahxcjbthen use tcpwrappers16:33
ahxcjbas iptables can't do that16:33
ahxcjbiptables can, however, block people attempting to login to your SSH server or allow access as set (IP, magic packet etc)16:33
ahxcjbtherefore, people often use BOTH.16:33
