| fish_ | hrm.. so do I need to use a late script for do /etc/network/interfaces configuration? | 09:08 |
|---|---|---|
| fish_ | hrm, ubuntu-minimal installs stuff like mlocate and ntfs-3g - not *that* minimal | 09:52 |
| xnox | fish_: ntfs-3g is in standard, not minimal. | 09:56 |
| xnox | and *desktopy* seeds / tasks | 09:56 |
| fish_ | xnox: hrm, but in my preseed I have: tasksel tasksel/first multiselect ubuntu-minimal | 10:10 |
| fish_ | well, I also install openssh-server and lxc-docker but I doubt they pull in ntfs-3g | 10:11 |
| cjwatson | fish_: you also need "tasksel tasksel/skip-tasks string standard" if you want to skip the standard task | 10:20 |
| fish_ | cjwatson: ah! thanks | 10:20 |
| fish_ | but the whole network configuration is just for the installer, right? it seems that it's not writing down the settings to /etc/network/interfaces | 10:22 |
| cjwatson | it normally should write it, but I'm afraid I don't have time to look today | 10:24 |
| fish_ | cjwatson: okay, guess it just ignores my static network config in the preseed file because I set it to dhcp on the command line | 10:26 |
| mpt | xnox, the mockup in <http://goo.gl/4xOlO5> shows “Use Entire Partition” and “Use Entire Disk” buttons that aren’t present in the actual installer. Do you know why? | 16:10 |
| xnox | mpt: first time I see those buttons. What happens in practice: if there is big enough unallocated space, we just use that without showing this dialog, otherwise we offer to resize an existing one. | 16:12 |
| xnox | mpt: i'm not sure those buttons make sense, as "Use Entire disk" is option "Wipe and install" on the previous screen. | 16:12 |
| mpt | That’s what I thought. :) Thanks xnox | 16:12 |
| xnox | mpt: and "Use Entire Partition" also doesn't quite make sense, as we resize one of the existing ones and use "all" of the created one. | 16:13 |
| xnox | mpt: no problem. | 16:13 |
| davmor2 | xnox: hey dude the u1 install page is that something you deal with? or is it our end? The log in details don't seem to be being passed to gnome-keyring | 16:20 |
| xnox | davmor2: =/ from day one of this feature there was no defined driver/maintainer for it. So it's blurred lines. | 16:21 |
| davmor2 | yay :'( that makes is so much easier then :( | 16:21 |
| xnox | davmor2: execute installer / that page, with ubiquity debug mode on & SSO debug mode, & collect all logs & ubiquity console output.... and then we can work out things from there. | 16:21 |
| xnox | davmor2: are you using a 2fa account? those don't work. | 16:22 |
| davmor2 | hmm that might be the cause | 16:23 |
| mpt | xnox, eventually we’ll get this document into a shape worth reading in full for the first time. :) | 16:32 |
| * mpt has never read it in full either | 16:35 | |
| xnox | mpt: don't worry, i haven't read all ubiquity source code either. =) | 16:44 |
| ogra_ | what ? | 16:46 |
| ogra_ | how did we ever let you into the installer team ! | 16:46 |
| ogra_ | don't tell me you also havent read all the open bugs yet | 16:47 |
| xnox | ogra_: psusi makes sure i get archived bug updates sent to me, in batches of 3h long reading =) | 17:05 |
| ogra_ | lol, so he does | 17:05 |
| * ogra_ gets these too | 17:05 | |
| mpt | If the 3007 open bug reports on Ubiquity average 50 words in length, their combined length is roughly that of “Oliver Twist” | 17:09 |
| xnox | mpt: what about pages and pages of the attached logs? =) | 17:11 |
| xnox | mpt: i get to read those bits as well ;-) | 17:11 |
| mpt | I don’t believe you | 17:15 |
| mpt | I’ve watched engineers read log files. They don’t read them, they scroll through them and magically stop on the one crucial line that tells them what the bug is | 17:16 |
| xnox | mpt: it's all done at the expense of gray hair, or using TARDIS to skip the boring parts. | 17:20 |
| davmor2 | mpt: you have too much time on your hands if you have time to look up word counts ;) | 17:55 |
| Andreas | ubuntu 13.10 installer can't find my SATA drive, any clue why | 21:48 |
| Andreas | should i try connecting it to another sata port or change some things in bios..? | 21:49 |
