| howdy | i am wanting to dual boot 2 different versions of ubuntu 10 and 12. im fine with the first install but am a little confused when it comes to install the second. can anyone suggest where i can find info on dualbooting 2 ubuntu installs? | 05:25 |
| cjwatson | brendand: you'll have to tell me something about how those installs are set up | 08:12 |
| cjwatson | brendand: but possibly, looking at this, try preseeding 'd-i live-installer/net-image string http://10.189.84.1/enablement/cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/daily/current/quantal-server-amd64/install/filesystem.squashfs' | 08:14 |
| cjwatson | I'm guessing a bit | 08:14 |
| brendand | cjwatson, should they be set up now in the same way as for desktop images? | 08:15 |
| cjwatson | brendand: I don't understand the question | 08:23 |
| brendand | cjwatson, you mentioned there was a change in the way server images installed - something about casper vs debootstrap? | 08:31 |
| cjwatson | casper -> red herring | 08:35 |
| cjwatson | so, what's happened is that the base system part of the server install is now done by mounting and copying a squashfs image, rather than by running debootstrap | 08:36 |
| cjwatson | it hasn't changed to a live install or anything - the rest of the install proceeds as normal | 08:37 |
| cjwatson | the temporary appearance of paths containing "casper" was a bug in the cdimage scripts | 08:37 |
| brendand | cjwatson, so i guess our preseeds would assume that debootstrap was being used | 08:43 |
| brendand | cjwatson, i can attach one to the bug if it helps | 08:44 |
| cjwatson | That's normally invisible to preseeding | 08:44 |
| cjwatson | Are you doing a cdrom-type install or a netboot-type install here? | 08:44 |
| brendand | cjwatson, oh - netboot, yes | 08:45 |
| cjwatson | I seem to recall that your setup is some kind of semi-supported mish-mash of the two ... | 08:45 |
| cjwatson | Don't you mount a CD and tell it to acquire from that over the network, or something? | 08:45 |
| brendand | pretty much | 08:46 |
| cjwatson | I've been complaining about that being unsupported ever since cr3 first set it up :) | 08:47 |
| cjwatson | So, normally, netboot installs would still use debootstrap | 08:47 |
| brendand | are the same set of images supported for netboot? | 08:51 |
| brendand | alpha-3 for example, where is that? | 08:51 |
| cjwatson | But because you're acquiring udebs from a server CD, it picks live-installer instead | 08:52 |
| cjwatson | So, if you want that to work, you have to preseed live-installer/net-image as above | 08:52 |
| cjwatson | Testing netboot would involve taking a snapshot of the archive | 08:52 |
