[10:24] <cjwatson> xnox: done, thanks
[11:46] <cjwatson> xnox: you should be able to usefully retest the wubi filesystem image now
[11:54] <xnox> cjwatson: by default, it fetches from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/precise/wubi/current/ , which is empty, not http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/precise/wubi/pending/
[11:55] <xnox> cjwatson: can you "promote" them?
[11:55] <xnox> (well, not default default, but the daily fallback is to fetch from current)
[11:55] <xnox> or i can recompile with fetching from pending
[11:56] <cjwatson> huh, how odd
[11:56] <cjwatson> will fix shortly
[12:17] <cjwatson> xnox: fixed the code so that this won't happen again; http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/precise/wubi/current/ is up to date now
[12:57] <xnox> cjwatson: wubi is good to go.
[12:57] <xnox> cjwatson: it's not on the iso-tracker, but i've tested it and it's all fine now.
[12:58] <cjwatson> great, thanks
[12:59] <cjwatson> the tracker code disliked it for some reason - I didn't bother debugging it because, well, not desperately useful effort
[19:00] <ecdhe> I had a ks.cfg %post% question; `touch /hello.txt' creates a file, but `touch /home/user/hello.txt' has no effect.
[19:00] <cjwatson> Looks like %post% scripts run before the user is created.
[19:01] <ecdhe> Do I need to mkdir then?
[19:01] <cjwatson> Bit difficult to change that, but you may be able to solve this by thinking about what you're trying to do
[19:01] <ecdhe> Copy in an ssh key.
[19:01] <cjwatson> Do you actually want to have something created in the home directory of all newly-created users, or just the first one?
[19:02] <ecdhe> Just the first one.
[19:02] <cjwatson> Hmm
[19:03] <cjwatson> It would be simplest to use preseed/late_command for this, which runs a bit later
[19:04] <ecdhe> Any docs for that?
[19:04] <cjwatson> preseed preseed/late_command string touch /home/user/hello.txt
[19:04] <cjwatson> https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/automatic-install.html
[19:04] <cjwatson> under "Additions"
[19:05] <ecdhe> Thanks!
[19:05] <cjwatson> preseed/late_command specifically is documented in https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/installation-guide/i386/preseed-advanced.html
[19:05] <ecdhe> This one was quite confusing, I really appreciate your help.
[19:05] <cjwatson> You're welcome
[19:09] <ecdhe> Will a command like cat - << EOF
[19:09] <ecdhe> long file lines...
[19:09] <ecdhe> EOF
[19:10] <ecdhe> work with preseed latecommand?
[19:13] <cjwatson> ecdhe: No.  For that, you're best off writing a separate script, downloading it using wget, chmod +x and running it
[19:13] <cjwatson> (At least I don't think so.  At the very least the quoting would be hairy)
[19:14] <ecdhe> That's what I thought.
