[19:58] <MarkB1> has there been any reports of "removed kernel packages", after a reboot from a 11.10 => 12.04 upgrade?   Wierd, but happened to me
[19:59] <foxwolfblood> MarkB1: hmm?
[19:59] <MarkB1> only memtest, to boot to!   Used 64-bit knoppix to chroot, re-install linux-kernel package --
[19:59] <foxwolfblood> not that i know of.
[19:59] <foxwolfblood> that shouldn't happen
[19:59] <MarkB1> the upgrade was so vanilla, that I have no idea why this happened...
[20:00] <MarkB1> but /boot was empty, except for memtest
[20:00] <foxwolfblood> MarkB1: thats really strange
[20:00] <MarkB1> foxwolfblood: no kidding
[20:00] <foxwolfblood> maybe it didn't finish or something
[20:00] <foxwolfblood> MarkB1: or errored on installing the new kernel packages
[20:00] <MarkB1> if I knew the Launchpad bug-tracking URL for the upgrade, I would take a look....
[20:01] <MarkB1> possibly, but why not error then, on the re-install?  (from knoppix64 chroot)?
[20:01] <foxwolfblood> just happened?
[20:01] <foxwolfblood> sometimes there is just issues
[20:02] <MarkB1> foxwolfblood: well, perhaps the upgrade process should not remove the _last_, most recent kernel -- ever -- and still proceed ot install the upgrade's kernel
[20:03] <foxwolfblood> like MarkB1 i can agree with that
[20:03] <foxwolfblood> my /boot is shared with other distros so i don't even mount it
[20:03] <MarkB1> well, my /boot is inside / (root)
[20:03] <MarkB1> everything else is an LVM partition
[20:04] <MarkB1> bac: bac?
[20:04] <bac> er?
[20:04] <MarkB1> if I knew the Launchpad bug-tracking URL for the upgrade, I would take a look.... (for reports of no kernel after the upgrade)
[20:05] <foxwolfblood> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager-core is this it?
[20:07] <bac> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/update-manager/+bugs?orderby=-id&start=0
[20:07] <MarkB1> bac: thanks, will check
[20:09] <bac> MarkB1: my /boot has packages going back to november.  i don't think the upgrade cleans up /boot
[20:10] <MarkB1> bac: mine was cleaned out....
[20:10] <MarkB1> only memtest remained
[20:10] <MarkB1> however, it could be I was cleaning up, and accidentally deleted the kernel.... unlikely, but possible  :-/
[20:11] <bac> MarkB1: you do love to tinker
[20:11] <MarkB1> not that much, this is my main / only work machine
[20:11] <bac> MarkB1: so are you recovered now?
[20:12] <foxwolfblood> dont mind me asking, what part of NC are you guys in, im in charlotte
[20:12] <bac> north chatham, just south of carrboro
[20:12] <MarkB1> I rotate between Yadkinville and north Chatham (15-501 S)
[20:12] <MarkB1> use Kubuntu 12.04 (now, was 11.04 => ....)
[20:13] <holstein> foxwolfblood: im in asheville
[20:13] <MarkB1> bac: yes, I spent Weds a.m. trying to figure out the hard way (grub2 + a copied kernel) to do, what was 10x easier with Knoppix + chroot
[20:13]  * bac needs to get back to asheville
[20:14] <foxwolfblood> although, ill be in cullowhee soon (hopefully)
[20:14] <MarkB1> foxwolfblood: great!   fun Mountain Heritage Day there, in Sept ???
[20:14] <foxwolfblood> MarkB1: hmm?
[20:14] <MarkB1> google
[20:15] <foxwolfblood> good idea
[20:15] <MarkB1> 1 day festival for the region, a lot of fun
[20:15] <MarkB1> on campus at WCU
[20:15] <holstein> i went to school there
[20:16] <foxwolfblood> holstein: well you know why i'm probably being in that area :P
[20:16] <foxwolfblood> like a month left of HS
[20:16] <foxwolfblood> now i need to try to not fail :/
[20:16] <holstein> eh.. failing now is better than later
[20:17] <foxwolfblood> holstein: oh that was more of a joke :P
[20:18] <holstein> you mean, that you dont fail?
[20:21] <foxwolfblood> holstein: do i seem like someone that fails to you?
[20:21] <holstein> you seem exactly like someone i know nothing about :)
[20:21] <holstein> but im glad to meet you
[20:21] <foxwolfblood> holstein: but this is IRC, we all have at least one thing in common!
[20:21] <holstein> i mean no disrespect, nor to imply you are going to fail
[20:22] <foxwolfblood> holstein: :D
[20:22] <foxwolfblood> im just being myself, a bit random and silly :P
[20:22] <holstein> i do feel like i wish i had messed around more in high school, and got more serious in college, instead of the other way around
[20:23] <foxwolfblood> holstein: haha, i did mess around a ton 9th and 10th grade :P
