|---|---|---|
| mfisch | infinity: thanks | 04:27 |
| cjwatson | infinity: hm, yeah. now, if only I could easily test a fix ... | 09:55 |
| infinity | cjwatson: If I had remembered this cycle to fix the &^%@!$ ISOs to boot on my powerstation, I could test. | 09:55 |
| cjwatson | I wonder why Debian removed kernel-img.conf handling in l-b | 09:56 |
| infinity | cjwatson: I guess it's not too late to do that. | 09:56 |
| infinity | cjwatson: But we switched from mkisofs to something else, right? So porting Debian's command-line becomes non-trivial. | 09:56 |
| cjwatson | xorriso's only on x86 | 09:57 |
| cjwatson | we still use genisoimage on powerpc | 09:57 |
| infinity | cjwatson: Oh, kay. So just yanking Debian's working command-line args for PPC would work. | 09:57 |
| cjwatson | should do | 09:58 |
| infinity | cjwatson: That's my only data point. "Debian boots, Ubuntu doesn't". | 09:58 |
| infinity | Wildly unhelpful. | 09:58 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: Is there any place to invoke clean_method() in partman-auto/lib/recipes.sh to execute `mv $id/method $id/method-old`? | 09:58 |
| infinity | Like, Ubuntu's so "broken" to this firmware that it doesn't even acknowlege there's a bootable CD in the tray. :P | 09:58 |

| FourDollars | cjwatson: Both. | 10:02 |

| cjwatson | FourDollars: and please show me any preseeding you're using | 10:03 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: I saw there is a method-old in EFI system partition folder. | 10:03 |
| cjwatson | forget about that for now, please | 10:04 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: It should be a 'method' file normally. | 10:04 |
| cjwatson | forget about that for now, please | 10:04 |
| cjwatson | you're starting from midway down the debugging trail, which is not helpful to me | 10:04 |
| cjwatson | it's a useful data point, yes, but I need more | 10:04 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: OK. | 10:04 |
| cjwatson | Are you doing any preseeding? Please show me. | 10:05 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: https://pastebin.canonical.com/64456/ | 10:07 |
| cjwatson | Your preseeding is wrong for EFI; it needs to opt to reuse the existing EFI System Partition. | 10:08 |
| cjwatson | 100 150 200 free | 10:08 |
| cjwatson | $iflabel{ gpt } | 10:08 |
| cjwatson | $reusemethod{ } | 10:08 |
| cjwatson | method{ efi } | 10:08 |
| cjwatson | format{ } . | 10:08 |
| cjwatson | add that to partman-auto/expert_recipe, preferably before the entries for the other two partitions (and with appropriate \ etc.) | 10:08 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: And I use https://pastebin.canonical.com/64457/ to overwrite some settings. (Sorry for the late.) | 10:09 |
| cjwatson | Hmm | 10:10 |
| cjwatson | well, that ought to work then, unless there's some weird interaction between $reusemethod and biggest_free, or something | 10:11 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: https://pastebin.canonical.com/64458/ is /var/log/partman | 10:12 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: https://pastebin.canonical.com/64459/ is /var/log/syslog | 10:13 |
| FourDollars | That is my question in the beginning. | 10:14 |
| FourDollars | Is there any place to invoke clean_method() in partman-auto/lib/recipes.sh to execute `mv $id/method $id/method-old`? | 10:14 |
| cjwatson | STOP | 10:14 |
| cjwatson | I want to debug this myself | 10:14 |
| cjwatson | please don't keep taking me down this | 10:14 |
| FourDollars | OK. Sorry. | 10:14 |
| cjwatson | can you insert 'set -x' at the top of /lib/partman/lib/recipes.sh before starting the installer, and then get me the resulting /var/log/syslog, please? | 10:14 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: Maybe I can use 'break=init' kernel parameter to modify /root//lib/partman/lib/recipes.sh . | 10:16 |
| cjwatson | Just run it interactively. | 10:16 |
| cjwatson | method-old represents what was autodetected before autopartitioning. Your results tell us that a partition was autodetected as efi, but no amount of fiddling with clean_method will tell us anything about why the autopartitioning recipe isn't reusing that partition. | 10:16 |
| cjwatson | So that's a distraction. | 10:16 |
| cjwatson | clean_method is called unconditionally at the top of /bin/autopartition. This is correct. | 10:17 |
| cjwatson | It's also not the problem. | 10:17 |

| cjwatson | Wouldn't hurt | 10:19 |
| jibel | ack | 10:19 |

| FourDollars | cjwatson: The output of `sh -x /lib/partman/lib/recipes.sh` is '+ unnamed=0' | 10:21 |

| cjwatson | You didn't do what I asked | 10:25 |
| cjwatson | I don't want the output of running that with 'sh -x'. That file is sourced by lots of bits of the installer. You can't run it outside the installer. | 10:25 |
| cjwatson | When I said "Just run it interactively", I meant boot the CD interactively and run the installer by typing 'ubiquity'. | 10:25 |
| FourDollars | Sorry. | 10:27 |

| cjwatson | If you could, yes please | 10:47 |
| stgraber | cjwatson: hmm, actually I think I figured it out already, it's bad timing between livefs and cd build | 10:48 |
| stgraber | cjwatson: /pool contains oem-config 2.10.13 but the livefs contains ubiquity 2.10.12 | 10:49 |
| cjwatson | That would indeed make sense | 10:49 |
| stgraber | cjwatson: can you maybe start a rebuild to confirm? | 10:49 |
| stgraber | I guess we want to test the new ubiquity anyway, so a rebuild would give us that | 10:49 |
| cjwatson | sure, running | 10:49 |
| cjwatson | oem-config-gtk pulling in a pile of KDE bits is odd; 'apt-get install oem-config-gtk' in a minimal chroot reproduces it, but 'apt-get install oem-config-gtk ubiquity-frontend-gtk' doesn't | 10:50 |
| cjwatson | I blame apt, but maybe there's some way to work around it | 10:50 |
| cjwatson | Hmm. The right workaround is probably to restructure the packaging, which I'm not doing now. Maybe tweak the apt-get command we're using, then. | 10:51 |
| stgraber | yeah, I noticed that a few time and I think that was also the source of the problem ogra_, infinity had with the ac100 image pulling kde | 10:52 |
| stgraber | I usually test ubiquity locally by installing and running it in a container, having to install with "ubiquity ubiquity-frontend-gtk" to avoid pulling half of kde with it | 10:53 |
| * ogra_ doesnt actually know what the source of that prob was ... its one of these things i discovered and before i could look infinity said "or that was my fault, fixed already!" | 10:54 | |

| FourDollars | cjwatson: No. :( | 11:05 |
| cjwatson | FourDollars: setup problems? | 11:07 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: I am still thinking of how to insert `set -x` to collect the information for you. | 11:08 |
| cjwatson | FourDollars: Boot the CD into a live session. Edit the file with a normal editor, as root. Save and exit the editor. Run 'ubiquity'. | 11:13 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: With my custmized CD, there is no live session mode. :( | 11:14 |
| cjwatson | Oh | 11:14 |

| cjwatson | sed -i '1s/^/set -x; /' /root/lib/partman/lib/base.sh | 11:15 |

| FourDollars | cjwatson: haha | 11:16 |
| cjwatson | It'll work on the first line, since that file has no #! line | 11:16 |
| FourDollars | Cool~ :D | 11:16 |
| cjwatson | well, thinking about it, you probably want it after . /usr/share/debconf/confmodule | 11:16 |
| cjwatson | so sed -i '3s/^$/set -x/' /root/lib/partman/lib/base.sh | 11:17 |
