Lord_SetGreetings00:22
Lord_SetAnyone around now?00:23
manjirihello. What is "xinstall" ? I want the image to be installed from "install" - what do I have to do?00:24
Lord_Setapt-get install xinstall00:25
Lord_Set?00:25
Lord_SetI guess I really don't understand what you are asking about specifically00:25
manjiriLord_Set: I mean what is "/var/lib/maas/tftp/amd64/generic/precise/xinstall" ? Why is it a link to "commissioning" ?00:26
Lord_SetOh00:26
manjiriLord_Set: I have placed my own image in /var/lib/maas/tftp/amd64/generic/precise/install - am trying to understand why it didn't get used00:27
manjiriI was speaking to bigjools about this yesterday00:27
Lord_SetHave you tried renaming xinstall and the naming your image xinstall?00:27
manjiriNot yet. I wanted to understand what it (xinstall) was, before I made changes00:28
Lord_SetOr why not look for a way to add your image to the selections of operating systems.00:28
manjiriLord_Set: If you know a way - please let me know00:29
Lord_SetI do not know currently but am interested in finding a way myself00:29
Lord_SetBecause there are circumstances where for deployment needs I may want to deploy a different distro of linux on a machine via MAAS00:30
manjiriroaksoax: I found a conversation that talks about "xinstall" here http://irclogs.ubuntu.com/2013/01/22/%23maas.txt00:33
manjiriroaksoax: Can you shed some light on this?00:34
Lord_SetHmm, I am guessin xinstall is the fast install image00:34
Lord_Seterr guessing00:34
manjiriLord_Set: That was my guess too. That is why I am trying the default to see if that makes a difference. Will take a while since it is .... NOT fast!00:38
Lord_Setheh00:40
Lord_SetThat is why I said just just try renaming it... it won't hurt or break anything. If anything you would just get a failed PXE install or boot.00:41
Lord_SetI just found some awesome videos on Youtube released by Google to learn Python00:45
