| kriegerod | where can i check source code of the part of Ubuntu Install CD which shows prompt "Try Ubuntu or Install" (this: http://purushottamdike.com/En/os_info/ubuntu/13.10/desktop-install-1.png ) ? | 16:48 |
|---|---|---|
| kriegerod | how can i customize the disk image to skip this prompt and go ahead with installation? | 16:48 |
| xnox | kriegerod: it's ubiquity, and it's a kernel boot option. | 16:53 |
| xnox | kriegerod: the default is "maybe-ubiquity", to boot into install mode direct, it's "only-ubiquity" | 16:54 |
| xnox | kriegerod: without either, desktop session starts (aka try ubuntu) | 16:54 |
| xnox | at burning man logo, click esc to choose if you want to boot direct into installer. | 16:54 |
| kriegerod | xnox: thanks for reply, | 16:56 |
| kriegerod | could you please point where to edit the default boot choice? i'm not sure about boot/grub/grub.cfg | 16:57 |
| kriegerod | its content is https://gist.github.com/krieger-od/23d8310fc08ac92ad37e | 16:57 |
| xnox | not that. | 16:58 |
| xnox | that's uefi boot | 16:58 |
| kriegerod | xnox: so where to edit? | 16:59 |
| xnox | kriegerod: grep for maybe-ubiquity. | 16:59 |
| kriegerod | ok, will do. thanks | 17:00 |
| xnox | kriegerod: why do you want to boot into installer by default? | 17:00 |
| xnox | kriegerod: if you are automatically preseeding, you'd want to specify automatic-ubiquity..... | 17:00 |
| xnox | kriegerod: not sure, but you might possibly will have to unpack and repack bootlogo archive. | 17:00 |
| kriegerod | "why do you want to boot into installer by default" -- making custom automated install cd | 17:08 |
| xnox | kriegerod: than do use 14.04 at least =) 13.10 is end of life by now. | 17:13 |
| kriegerod | sure i use 14.04 iso | 17:17 |
| kriegerod | editing isolinux/txt.cfg helped | 17:17 |
| kriegerod | unfortunately i have preseed options "ubiquity passwd/user-password{,-again} password XXXXXX" not working. Any quick ideas? | 17:22 |
| xnox | kriegerod: it's not ubiquity, but d-i. | 17:23 |
| xnox | e.g. | 17:23 |
| xnox | d-i passwd/user-fullname string UTAH | 17:23 |
| xnox | d-i passwd/username string utah | 17:23 |
| xnox | d-i passwd/user-password password !ubuntu123 | 17:23 |
| xnox | d-i passwd/user-password-again password !ubuntu123 | 17:23 |
| kriegerod | gosh, i thought ubiquity is a fork of d-i | 17:24 |
| xnox | kriegerod: no, it's not. | 17:24 |
| kriegerod | lines "ubiquity passwd/user-fullname", "ubiquity passwd/username" work | 17:24 |
| xnox | hm. | 17:24 |
| xnox | let me check the code. | 17:24 |
| cjwatson | the owner field doesn't matter in that case. either d-i or ubiquity would work. | 17:27 |
| cjwatson | ubiquity is a wrapper around parts of d-i. | 17:27 |
| kriegerod | changing passwd/user-password* prefix to d-i seems to work - now i wasn't asked by that dialog | 17:30 |
| cjwatson | how curious. I wonder what cares about the owner there - really shouldn't | 17:31 |
| kriegerod | cjwatson: i guess you will be surprised even more that this https://gist.github.com/krieger-od/6be96f5c9867ed74c80d worked perfectly | 17:42 |
| cjwatson | I haven't looked, doing a zillion other things, sorry | 17:43 |
| cjwatson | well, three, but both brain-intensive | 17:44 |
| cjwatson | *all :-) | 17:44 |
| kriegerod | is pkgsel/include option processed? i don't see it requested in /var/log/installer logs (with ubiquity-debug enabled) | 18:07 |
| cjwatson | not in ubiquity no | 18:08 |
| kriegerod | could you please point to a directive which installs specific extra packages? | 18:09 |
| xnox | ubiquity doesn't install packages per-se, it simply copies the livefs to target with cp -a more or less. | 18:11 |
| kriegerod | i'll try to put back "d-i" prefix to it | 18:11 |
| kriegerod | i have previously replaced all "d-i" to "ubiquity", which made most of my preseed directives to make effect :) | 18:12 |
| xnox | kriegerod: ubiquity does not run tasksel / pkgsel | 18:14 |
| kriegerod | xnox: the problem is that there's no up-to-date exhaustive documentation on preseed options for ubuntu | 18:16 |
| kriegerod | grepping for late_command in ubiquity sources gives mentions only with oem-config prefix. No way to run custom command in generic install case? | 18:43 |
| CarlFK | kriegerod: works for me | 19:18 |
| CarlFK | root around in here, this works: https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/tree/master/setup/nodes/pxe | 19:19 |
| infinity | cjwatson: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7839038/ <-- Objections? | 23:24 |
| infinity | cjwatson: Sick of screwing that up and having to reupload (as I'm about to...) | 23:24 |
| infinity | Oh, except that's FTBFS in a test build. | 23:25 |
| cjwatson | infinity: LGTM once it builds | 23:25 |
| infinity | Oh, wait, maybe it's FTBFS correctly. | 23:27 |
| infinity | As in, linux-signed hasn't published yet. :P | 23:27 |
| * infinity waits. | 23:27 | |
| infinity | Do I get a gold start for making a package fail to build and then wondering why it fails to build? | 23:27 |
| infinity | s/start/star/ | 23:28 |
| infinity | Okay, local mirror in sync with reality, let's try this again. | 23:36 |
| infinity | That went much better. Committing. | 23:43 |
