wangmd21Hello everybody, i have a question about OEM installation.03:08
wangmd21input "oem-config-prepare" and reboot. And then choose the language, time zone, keyboard, build use. But I don't need to choose the language, time zone, keyboar. I just need to add user.03:08
wangmd21What should i do?03:10
infinityThose question are meant for the end-user.03:14
infinityIf you, as an OEM, need to do things to the machine before it ships, you do that before oem-config-prepare.03:14
infinityoem-config-prepare is the last thing you do before powering it off and cloning or shipping it.03:15
wangmd21We want to OEM,for ubuntu03:22
wangmd21In the end-user open a computer, we hope that end-user need only add user03:25
infinityOh, I see what you're driving at.03:30
infinityYou should be able to pre-answer those questions and mark them seen, but I'm not precisely sure which templates those would be.03:30
wangmd21I am the system administrator, I just want to more convenient maintenance company computers03:34
wangmd21This also need to ask mark?03:36
infinityI'd recommend asking cjwatson when he's around later today/tomorrow, if you can't quite sort out how to do what you're looking to do.03:49
infinityBut I imagine a judicious use of debconf-communicate could set up the bits you want.03:50
wangmd21I wait for cjwatson, and try debconf-communicate.04:04
wangmd21I will mail to cjwatson about question.04:07
semitoneshello -- any installer developers here? I have a question about the installation iso, fat32 usb file system, and symbolic links14:57
semitonesa file on the alternate cd failed integrity check, and when I mounted the iso to check what it was, it was a symlink that I couldn't copy over to the USB, because fat32 doesn't support symlinks -- is that known behavior?14:57
semitonesthe file in question is pxelinux.cfg/default14:59
