| mattcen | Hi all. When I netboot an Ubuntu Lucid install, there's a huge (5 minute) delay before the "download installer components" prompt, and a tcpdump shows the installer talks to orobas.canonical.com at that point. Could that be the reason for the delay, and why is it communicating with that host even though I have my own mirror etc.? | 07:01 |
|---|---|---|
| infinity | mattcen: That's an archive.ubuntu.com machine, so I'd assume you might have misconfigured your local mirror setup if that's a preseed... | 07:03 |
| mattcen | Inspecting the packets closer, I see it's trying to get the Security package list from there. I can't imagine why that'd induce a 5 minute delay though. | 07:04 |
| mattcen | infinity: Thanks, I'll keep digging. I've already determined that I wasn't explicitly specifying to use my local mirror for security, so I've done that, and it looks like that's stopped some or all of the communication with canonical.com, but hasn't removed the delay. Still hunting | 07:40 |

| mpt | Why are announcements of new kernels posted to ubuntu-installer@? | 09:34 |
| ogra_ | mpt, because the installer needs a manual version bump for the kernel it depends on | 11:01 |
| mpt | ah, ok | 11:05 |
