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