| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 1359712 in base-installer (Ubuntu) ""base-installer: error: /cdrom/install/filesystem.squashfs has failed to be mounted as squashfs." is seen on trusty server instalaltions" [Undecided,New] | 08:15 |
| psivaa | cjwatson: plars mentioned someone was asking for trusty server install failures | 08:15 |
| psivaa | s/for/about | 08:15 |
| cjwatson | psivaa: ack | 10:37 |
| fish_ | re | 10:53 |
| fish_ | cjwatson: not directly installer related but just saw you were involved in 'biosdevname on poweredge'. so I just installed trusty (sucessfuly this time ;)) but now my 2nd interface sometimes is called eth1, sometimes em2 | 10:54 |
| fish_ | so well, there is this problem now and I'm wondering whether I should care to fix it or jsut disable biosdevname | 10:55 |
| cjwatson | I would just disable it if it is causing trouble | 11:01 |
| fish_ | franky, given that dell 'invented' this doesn't make me more confident in using it - even on dell boxes. | 11:01 |
| cjwatson | it ... wasn't really my idea to enable it by default | 11:01 |
| fish_ | what should it solve anyway? it's not very clear to me.. the device ordering should be the same across all my systems if the hw is the same. and if I change the hw, I reinstall the systems anyways | 11:02 |
| fish_ | cjwatson: ok, all the discussion sounded like that :) thanks for confirming, I'll just disable it | 11:02 |
| cjwatson | network device enumeration isn't necessarily stable across reboots even with the same hardware | 11:02 |
| cjwatson | can depend on such things as which order the PCI bus happens to respond in | 11:03 |
| fish_ | cjwatson: I've heard about that but I never saw that happen across reboots | 11:03 |
| fish_ | IIRC the order gets encoded as udev rules during install anyway, right? but I never saw it during reinstalls either | 11:04 |
| fish_ | well, actually a few years ago I had such issue once when bootstrapping debian but it was somehow caused by odd kernel parameters (aka me) | 11:05 |
| cjwatson | my understanding is that the udev rule approach is not in fact reliable and can e.g. result in interfaces getting stuck with renamed_foo names | 11:09 |
| fish_ | hrm well, I see how it makes sense to have something like biosdevname.. well, but since I was thinking 'I need to reinstall those systems, let's just install trusty now' and this already took me longer than I hoped I'll stick with the good ol' eth naming for now | 11:11 |
| fish_ | but things are really odd with trusty. why on earth does it run dhcp even though /etc/network/interfaces doesn't set that up? | 11:47 |
| fish_ | ah never mind, that's my fault | 11:56 |
| cjwatson | psivaa: ah, just a d-i kernel abi bump needed, I'll do that | 13:27 |
| psivaa | cjwatson: ack, thanks. | 13:27 |

| fish__ | now I hoped I've fixed the lvm volume creation in my late script but now the ubuntu-vg vg can't be found | 15:29 |
| fish__ | is it possible to set the default lvm volume group name? it defaults to the hostname which I don't want (and don't think is a good idea in general) | 15:39 |
| fish__ | I can't even find the sources for whatever is defining the volume group name | 16:19 |
| fish__ | could someone point me to that? | 16:20 |
| fish__ | finally I found it: partman-auto-lvm/new_vg_name - would be great of those things are documented somewhere. it's not in here for example: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/example-preseed.txt | 16:28 |
| fish__ | so now my last problem with this install: somehow it didn't install ifenslave even though I specified it in my preseed: d-i pkgsel/include string openssh-server lxc-docker btrfs-tools apparmor ifenslave | 16:40 |
| fish__ | the log shows that it's installing apparmor but not ifenslave | 16:40 |
| fish__ | I'll reinstall this machine again to make sure. it sounds so unlikely that even I can't believe it ;) | 16:59 |
