| FourDollars | Hi, does ubiquity support partman/late_command ? | 04:58 |
|---|---|---|
| FourDollars | Or preseed/late_command ? | 05:40 |
| FourDollars | I don't know why I can use partman/early_command but not partman/late_command neither preseed/late_command. :( | 05:43 |
| veebers | FourDollars: I'm looking at this myself and came across this: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbiquityAutomation | 05:46 |
| veebers | specifically: ubiquity/success_command | 05:46 |
| FourDollars | veebers: Thank you. :D | 05:46 |
| veebers | FourDollars: np :) | 05:46 |
| veebers | does anyone know if I should still use 'in-target' if I use ubiquity/success_command (like I do when I use d-i preseed/late_command string) | 05:49 |
| veebers | The docs mention: (runs outside of /target, but /target is mounted when the command is invoked). | 05:49 |
| veebers | I should take that to mean that I don't? | 05:49 |
| FourDollars | veebers: I think in-target command doesn't not exist at the live environment. | 05:51 |
| FourDollars | veebers: It only exists in pure debian-installer environment. | 05:51 |
| FourDollars | s/not// | 05:52 |
| veebers | FourDollars: ah ok, cheers | 05:52 |
| FourDollars | ubiquity: /bin/in-target | 05:52 |
| FourDollars | Sorry, it does exist. XD | 05:52 |
| babyface_ | found a bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1050788 in quantal iso build 20120914, anybody has a look on it? | 07:44 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1050788 in debian-installer "failed to install quantal server iso build 20120914: chroot: can't execute '/sbin/ldconfig': No such file or directory" [Undecided,New] | 07:44 |
| cjwatson | FourDollars: partman/late_command has never existed, FYI | 08:44 |
| cjwatson | babyface_: I'll look, thanks | 08:45 |
| FourDollars | cjwatson: I see. Thanks. :) | 08:45 |
| xnox | cjwatson: cjwatson: did you see the last comment on bug 1049535 , that just including fetch-url was not enough.... it sources preseed/preseed.sh which is not installed into neither regular udebs nor in the ubiquity. Not sure how it's suppose to work. | 08:45 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1049535 in ubiquity "Install fails when using a preseed file that adds a PPA using: d-i apt-setup/local0/..." [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1049535 | 08:45 |
| cjwatson | xnox: yes, I saw it | 08:45 |
| * xnox xnox is is stuttering | 08:45 | |
| xnox | ok. | 08:45 |
| cjwatson | that script should stop sourcing preseed.sh, so that part of the fix is trivial | 08:45 |
| cjwatson | but I wanted to actually test it this time, which is why it's taking a bit longer :) | 08:46 |
| cjwatson | (it certainly *is* in regular udebs, though - preseed-common) | 08:46 |
| xnox | ah, I see...but debian-installer-utils binary packages do not depend on preseed-common & there is some preseed.sh file in debian-installer-utils hence my confusion about it not being installed. | 08:48 |
| cjwatson | right, in d-i it doesn't matter because preseed-common is always installed | 08:51 |
| cjwatson | it's a leftover from fetch-url having originally been part of one of the preseed packages | 08:52 |
| cjwatson | anyway, either I'll get it tested and upload today, or I'll upload anyway and risk the bug being reopened again | 08:52 |
| veebers | cjwatson: I realise now that the reason I came across the bug 1049535 is because I was originally using the preseed file with the alternate iso and now I'm using the desktop iso | 09:03 |

| cjwatson | sure | 09:04 |

| cjwatson | hmm, why is the server installer going anywhere near bootstrap-base | 09:17 |
| cjwatson | oh, bah, seed expansion horror | 09:18 |
| cjwatson | I'll have to restore my awful hack in cdimage for now | 09:18 |

| veebers | if I have multiple commands in a ubiquity/success_command if one fails does it execute the rest? | 09:52 |
| veebers | i.e. ubiquity/success_command string true; false; echo hello > file.log | 09:52 |
| veebers | will the echo command be executed here? | 09:53 |
| cjwatson | Yes. If you don't want that to happen then either use && instead of ; or put set -e at the start. | 09:54 |

| veebers | cool, thanks cjwatson | 09:54 |
| veebers | I'm having issue with my success_command, it used to work fine as a late_command, I'm just trying to narrow down what's wrong | 09:55 |
| cjwatson | try 'set -x;' at the start to get a trace. | 09:55 |
| veebers | cjwatson: I think that's what I'm looking for. I expected details in /var/log/installer/syslog (on the installed machine) | 09:56 |
| veebers | but there wasn't what I expected. | 09:57 |
| cjwatson | should be either there or /var/log/installer/debug; but only if anything actually comes out on stderr. | 09:57 |
| veebers | ah ok, will check that too, thanks again cjwatson | 09:57 |
| veebers | cjwatson: sorry if this is a silly question. when I use set -x will that output go into a log that I can see post install, or do I need to be tailling a file during? | 09:59 |
| cjwatson | it should land in syslog | 10:00 |
| veebers | awesome | 10:00 |
| cjwatson | well, one of /var/log/installer/{syslog,debug}, can't remember which. | 10:00 |
| cjwatson | (post-install locations) | 10:00 |
| veebers | as long as it's there afterwards :) | 10:00 |
| xnox | partman and I were not good friends today | 18:39 |
| stgraber | can anyone be good friend with partman anyway? :) | 18:46 |
| xnox | stgraber: well i create encrypted partitions, it tells me they are there, but then it does not activate them claiming they are not.... what it told me they are.... f###ing liar | 18:51 |
| xnox | i am doing d-i install and diffing the logs so see where did I miss a step to the left and a jump to the right | 18:53 |
