fish_ | hrm, debian-installer/locale should preseed debian-installer/language etc as well, right? | 14:54 |
---|---|---|
fish_ | looks like it doesn't | 14:54 |
fish_ | bwuahaha. oops.. I just installed ubuntu successfull - but the whole graphical desktop thingy, not as expected the server 'flavor' | 16:28 |
fish_ | any ideas what I need to preseed so I end up with a fairly minimal server system? (actually I expected that when using the example preseed) | 16:28 |
xnox | fish_: which image / iso did you use for the install and what's your preseed? | 16:30 |
fish_ | never mind, already found it. must have missed that | 16:30 |
fish_ | thats the 'problem': tasksel tasksel/first multiselect ubuntu-desktop | 16:31 |
xnox | =) | 16:31 |
fish_ | but this was really unexpected. installed everything preseeded, automatically and with static ips. and suddently lightdm came up and I was like wtf? | 16:32 |
ogra_ | just s/ubuntu-desktop/openssh-server/ | 16:32 |
ogra_ | ;) | 16:32 |
fish_ | didn't even know that those dell drac virtual consoles can do real graphics | 16:32 |
xnox | ogra_: i'd say "ubuntu-server" but that should work too =) | 16:32 |
ogra_ | heh, yeah | 16:33 |
fish_ | whats the most minimal task? I really don't want much beside ssh | 16:33 |
xnox | fish_: "ubuntu-minimal" | 16:33 |
ogra_ | well, then my above line applies | 16:33 |
ogra_ | ubuntu-minimal is always installed | 16:33 |
xnox | fish_: but "ubuntu-server" is fairly minimal, I think the most fancy thing it installs is GNU screen =) | 16:34 |
ogra_ | (it is what a default debootstrap gives you) | 16:34 |
ogra_ | i think -server pulls in -standard | 16:34 |
ogra_ | (which is "everything that wasnt mimimal enough to fit into -minimal :) ) | 16:34 |
fish_ | ogra_: but minimal includes ssh? | 16:38 |
ogra_ | no | 16:38 |
ogra_ | -standard includes openssh-client ... iirc nothing includes the server by default (or there might be a specific server sub-task) | 16:39 |
fish_ | ogra_: ah okay, guess then I'll go with ubuntu-minimal and add: pkgsel/include string openssh-server | 16:41 |
xnox | openssh-server (from openssh) is seeded in: | 16:43 |
xnox | edubuntu: dvd | 16:43 |
xnox | lubuntu: daily | 16:43 |
xnox | mythbuntu: daily-live | 16:43 |
xnox | ubuntu-server: daily | 16:43 |
xnox | ubuntu-touch: daily-preinstalled | 16:43 |
xnox | ogra_: fish_ ^ | 16:43 |
xnox | bah, it's in it's own task: Task: virt-host, cloud-image, openssh-server | 16:43 |
ogra_ | xnox, yeah | 16:44 |
ogra_ | it is seeded but the server installer still wants you to explicitly select it in tasksel | 16:44 |
ogra_ | (there was a discussion about it which resulted in it to become the first option in tasksel but to still stay unchecked by default) | 16:46 |
bdmurray | cjwatson: did you say you are working on 12.04.4? | 16:46 |
fish_ | hrm, but minimal + select the package should be fine, right? | 16:46 |
ogra_ | yep | 16:47 |
fish_ | hrm.. passwd/user-password-crypted seems not to work, I can't login. it expected MD5/hex, right? | 16:49 |
fish_ | like: echo -n "password" | md5sum | 16:49 |
fish_ | ah okay, looks like it's not | 16:51 |
fish_ | (it's salted md5 in crypt format) | 16:53 |
cjwatson | bdmurray: yeah, ish | 17:17 |
bdmurray | cjwatson: bug 1051935 might be worth adding to the mix (it's been fixed in trusty) | 17:19 |
ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1051935 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Precise) "Fails with SystemError when too many files are open" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1051935 | 17:19 |
cjwatson | bdmurray: chances of me having time to cherry-pick all that myself are fairly slim, but if you want to do it I'd review | 17:20 |
bdmurray | cjwatson: okay, I'll have a look then | 17:22 |
cjwatson | thanks | 17:24 |
fish_ | hrm, aren't the netcfg options used for the actual /etc/network/interfaces configuration? | 17:34 |
fish_ | the installer gets pxe booted, then it's doing dhcp (based on the kernel parameters), then it fetches the preseed where I manually configured the network | 17:35 |
fish_ | but after the installation is finished, /etc/network/interfaces is configured to use dhcp | 17:35 |
