hobgoblinhello ruffedgz14:23
ruffedgzHey14:24
hobgoblinwhat brings you here?14:24
ruffedgzI was messaged by 'Elfy' on the ubuntu forums about a thread I made about using LVM on a Ubuntu install and how it would be good to make into a wiki page: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=178229614:26
hobgoblinaah - brb14:26
ruffedgzno worries14:26
hobgoblinthat's me :)14:26
hobgoblinjust reading PM14:27
hobgoblinnice one :)14:27
hobgoblinIf you want to do the thing then that is brilliant news - we have a tool that you can use14:28
hobgoblinI thought I recognised your name :)14:28
hobgoblinruffedgz: the tool is here - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ForumWikiTeam/ImportTool14:29
hobgoblinit's a script - if you want to do the deed then - go ahead - if you want some help then ask :)14:29
ruffedgzsure thing. I am going to make some small changes to the forum post first then try out the conversion ;)14:30
hobgoblinexcellent :)14:30
hobgoblinI copy the result across to the wiki team sandbox first so I can play before I make it a real wiki14:31
hobgoblinso if you want to do that - just ping me and I'll show you were it is14:31
ruffedgzawesome =D excited to help :D14:34
hobgoblinI'm more than pleased someone wants to do their own :)14:35
hobgoblinwe've done a fair few so far14:35
cortman+115:01
ruffedgzok, was able to make the .wiki file and wouldn't mind seeing it in the sandbox area first then transfer it over to the live one using this help page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WikiGuide/PageCreation15:22
hobgoblinruffedgz: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ForumWikiTeam/Sandbox15:24
hobgoblinedit that page - delete it all and paste in your's play with it15:24
hobgoblinif you do not get time to finish - more actions - raw text - copy and paste that - just in case someone else comes along and removes your 'playing'15:25
hobgoblinbodhi_zazen: ruffedgz came here to do their own tute to wiki convert :)15:25
hobgoblinhi JonEdney wildmanne3915:46
JonEdneyHey hobgoblin15:46
wildmanne39hi hobgoblin15:46
hobgoblinwildmanne39: I realised that we both had the same thread on the import page - sorry - my fault :(15:46
hobgoblinI did the wiki and removed your line15:47
hobgoblinhope you'd not done any work on it15:47
cortmanhi wildmanne3915:47
ruffedgzhobgoblin: quick question - should I move over my pictures to the wiki page (not the sandbox area) or should I keep them on the ubuntu forum?15:49
wildmanne39hobgoblin, no problem which one was it? if I did not have a link to it or marked in progress I doubt I worked on it yet15:49
hobgoblinaah - you have to add those as attachments within the wiki15:49
wildmanne39hi cortman15:50
hobgoblinwildmanne39: the powerware one15:50
hobgoblinruffedgz: you'll need to save the wiki - then there is an option for attachments, save them - then they are available 'within' the wiki to add into the text15:51
ruffedgzsounds good15:51
hobgoblinruffedgz: if you need to see what the syntax is like - edit or raw text the import page you got the tool from :)15:51
hobgoblinor read the wiki for it ... https://wiki.ubuntu.com/HelpOnLinking15:52
ruffedgzyep, I use moinmoin at work ;) I knew it was possible but didn't know if it was done for this particular wiki =D15:53
wildmanne39hobgoblin, no harm done there15:53
hobgoblinruffedgz: aah cool - you need to hang around then - for the most part we are learnign as we go I think :D15:53
* hobgoblin knows he'd take all the help he can lol15:54
cortmanin that case we'd REALLY like to have you on the team ruffedgz15:55
ruffedgzlol15:56
ruffedgzok, I have it looking pretty good now but I was wondering if this title is a good one to use: UbuntuDesktopLVM16:14
ruffedgzwhat do you all think?16:14
hobgoblinyep16:18
hobgoblinmore or less what I was going to use16:18
ruffedgzok, I know I didn't want to use something like this: SetupUbuntuDesktopwithLVMPartitions ... :P16:24
hobgoblinyea - can get a bit hard to decide sometimes16:25
hobgoblinif it's something simple like grub it's easy lol16:25
ruffedgzlol, true that16:26
ruffedgzlol, I keep losing connection :P18:36
hobgoblinthat's pants :(18:36
ruffedgzsorry for the late entry on this (working on multiple things right now) but I finished my entry and please look over and advise/change what you need to: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UbuntuDesktopLVM18:36
hobgoblinthat looks good :) all I would change is the order at the beginning for versions - I would have done 12.04 to 10.0418:38
ruffedgzsounds good, I can do that18:38
hobgoblinbut that's just personal preference :)18:38
hobgoblinruffedgz: did you use the tool?18:38
ruffedgzI did use the tool to convert it18:39
ruffedgzI had to make some modifications to it for it to work with the table of contents and some other minor things but it worked out great18:39
hobgoblinyea - we know about the tidying up - but it makes people look at the thing before saving :)18:41
ruffedgzagreed, thats why I wanted to look it over in the sandbox just in case ;)18:41
hobgoblinyep :)18:42
hobgoblinwhat we don't want for this project is for wiki to fill with rubbish :)18:42
ruffedgzyep yep, that makes sense, We have a lot of that in my job now. I work on it but cleaning is another matter >.<18:43
ruffedgzwell let me know if you need my help on anything else. I have setup notifications for the LVM page I just added so I can make sure the content thats changed is good.18:47
hobgoblinthanks ruffedgz - I'll be sureto remember you :)18:48
ruffedgzhobgoblin: Sounds good. Have a good one :D18:49
hobgoblincheers :)18:50
