| xnox | veebers: not really, as desktop installer doesn't do "package installation" for most of the installation (it simply copies the whole cd contents). You can chroot into /target and add ppa & upgrade after the install is finished. | 08:09 |
|---|---|---|
| jibel | xnox, bug 1066256 has been there for a while, but might be something to fix in next respin ? | 09:21 |

| xnox | jibel: I'm not sure. I'd ask cjwatson for second opinion. I haven't look what $ROOT is expected to be (with/without trailing slash) and also maybe a better fix is to test for empty value in that script. | 09:23 |
| xnox | jibel: is it easy to reproduce? e.g. do oem-install and that's it?! | 09:24 |
| veebers | xnox: cool, thanks for the info :) | 09:24 |
| xnox | veebers: your welcome =) | 09:25 |
| * xnox is happy with his irc bouncer to get the scrollback =) | 09:25 | |
| jibel | xnox, right, oem install and that's it. I just do not read the logs very often. I was searching something else :) | 09:25 |
| xnox | =)))) | 09:26 |
| cjwatson | I kinda like to fix syntax errors personally | 09:29 |
| cjwatson | Hm. Crappy quoting. | 09:30 |
| cjwatson | Ah yes, and jibel has a point as well. Trailing slash will be fine there. | 09:31 |
| xnox | yeah, there is more than one way to fix it =) | 09:31 |
| cjwatson | Some of which are correct ;-) | 09:33 |
| jibel | xnox, about bug 1065502, I could only reproduce it on vbox, not hw or kvm. So maybe there is something special in the way vbox handles virtual disks. | 15:48 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1065502 in ubiquity "Ubiquity failed to proceed to partman, fails at replace recipe now..." [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1065502 | 15:48 |
| cjwatson | Perhaps you get /dev/vd* in vbox? | 15:48 |
| cjwatson | kvm has virtio options | 15:48 |
| xnox | hmm... good suggestion, I can try that. | 15:48 |
| jibel | it's sd* in vbox | 15:51 |
| xnox | jibel: and what's on disk? simple full disk quantal? or like free space available (or old quantal) or multiple OS? | 15:53 |
| xnox | no luck with virtio nor sata nor ide. | 15:53 |
| xnox | in kvm | 15:53 |
| jibel | xnox, it is a 16GB, default desktop installation in English. By default, I mean blindly press continue and enter some text in the mandatory fields until it reboots | 15:54 |
| jibel | 16GB disk | 15:54 |
| jibel | so maybe it's limited to vbox | 15:55 |
| xnox | I did do this with 16GB disk =/ and no luck in kvms. ok, will bring my vbox at one point to sort it out. putting it to rest for now. | 15:57 |
| jibel | I was reproducing bug 1066173 and now on first boot after installation I'm dropped to grub rescue mode with the message: | 17:11 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1066173 in ubiquity "whole disk install puts grub in wrong place" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1066173 | 17:11 |
| jibel | error: file '/boot/grub/i386-pc/normal.mod' not found | 17:11 |
| jibel | what does it mean ? | 17:11 |
| cjwatson | Just an extension of the same "wrong place" thing | 17:12 |
| cjwatson | The GRUB core has a prefix that doesn't correspond to where GRUB modules are actually to be found | 17:12 |
| jibel | but the external drive is plugged. I only removed the usb stick | 17:13 |
| xnox | jibel: can you mount the hard-drive and retrieve the logs? /var/log/syslog & /var/log/installer/* from the hard drives? | 17:13 |
| jibel | sure | 17:13 |
| jibel | if I find a usb port on a working machine with enough power :) | 17:14 |
| xnox | ah... /me does everything in VMs so it would be just a few CLI commands to mount it ;-) | 17:14 |
