| FourDollars | Where is the log of #ubuntu-installer ? I want to find some information from it. | 03:27 |
|---|---|---|
| FourDollars | Not mind. I found it at http://irclogs.ubuntu.com :) | 03:28 |
| ramsrambo | Need help installing Ubuntu 12 beta 2 | 07:55 |
| _tasslehoff_ | Is it possible to choose the type of partition table created in the alternate installer? | 08:14 |
| stgraber | jibel: anything interesting in today's testing? | 09:15 |
| jibel | stgraber, no, I tried to reproduce a m-a crasher when 2 OS are already installed without success | 09:17 |
| stgraber | k. I just finished catching up on the installer bugmail and couldn't find anything critical in there either. Will do some ISO testing then :) | 09:18 |
| jibel | found a bug report about a failed install due to not enough memory (600MB in a VM on amd64) we should consider updating the documentation and memory requirements | 09:19 |
| stgraber | that was Lubuntu though | 09:20 |
| jibel | stgraber, you commented on it btw | 09:20 |
| stgraber | I successfully installed Ubuntu and Edubuntu on 512MB yesterday | 09:20 |
| jibel | stgraber, from a live session ? | 09:21 |
| stgraber | yeah | 09:21 |
| jibel | amm64 ? | 09:21 |
| jibel | *amd64 | 09:21 |
| stgraber | good question, might have been i386, will do another test on Ubuntu amd64 with 512 | 09:23 |
| jibel | stgraber, I don't think that's worth it. does it make sense to install 64bit with so little memory ? | 09:26 |
| stgraber | not really, no | 09:26 |
| jibel | my opinion is that it is a documentation issue now. | 09:28 |
| infinity | We've already confirmed a few times this week that amd64+512MB is a losing scenario. | 09:33 |
| infinity | Updating the docs seems smarter. | 09:33 |
| mpt | cm-t, I will finish writing up the specification today. But the first step is to add a button to the bottom of the initial screen <https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/Doc?docid=0AU5sFuLRpCpBZGZra2pqY2pfMTAxZ25rcnBnNXY#_Welcome_>, "Reinstall From Sync…". This would take you to a new "Reinstall from sync" page in the installer, which would contain a sign-in form. | 10:06 |
| mpt | Once you'd signed in, the installer would go and fetch the list of computers synced to that account, and present them for you to choose one. | 10:07 |
| mpt | Does that make sense so far? | 10:07 |
| cm-t | yes it does | 10:09 |
| cm-t | I am looking at the docs, if I understand well, it will be at the 3.8 | 10:10 |
| mpt | Oh yes, I hadn't noticed that section was there :-) | 10:11 |
| mpt | I think I'll move that between the "Welcome" and "Preparing to install Ubuntu" sections | 10:11 |
| mpt | because once you have finished the selection, it will come back to that "Preparing to install Ubuntu" screen | 10:12 |
| cm-t | I see | 10:14 |
| Blackyugin | That's look good, thanks | 10:15 |
| cjwatson | _tasslehoff_: as of 12.04 you can preseed partman-partitioning/default_label; not before | 10:18 |
| cjwatson | infinity: amd64+512MB improved very substantially following the fix for bug 979350; it works if you don't run the installer from a live session | 10:19 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 979350 in user-setup "install with encrypted home failed near the end: OSError: [Errno 12] Cannot allocate memory" [High,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/979350 | 10:19 |
| === cm-t is now known as _cm-t_ | ||
| stgraber | I actually just got amd64 to install with 512MB using the live session, so I guess it depends exactly what you do in the live session and exactly what you choose in the installer | 10:20 |
| infinity | cjwatson: Fair enough. Probably still saner to recommend 1G on amd64. The subset of people with amd64 machines and only 512MB can't be large. | 10:21 |
| cjwatson | yeah | 10:28 |
| * infinity wonders where best to fix preinstalled images having non-standard sources.lists. | 10:34 | |
| infinity | Well, that wasn't the right question. The right place is in lb_chroot_archives or whatever in live-build. | 10:35 |
| infinity | But maybe something hackish-but-more-reviewable is a better option right now. | 10:36 |

| loan | can I ask a question? | 19:33 |
| loan | I've received the license of Mathematica | 19:33 |
| loan | and a .sh file, for installation | 19:33 |
| loan | should I execute it? | 19:33 |
| cm-t | mpt: just receive all that, thanks you for reactivity :) I will back to work on it sunday | 23:41 |
| mpt | ok cm-t, have fun | 23:42 |
