| Mate | hi. how could i get debug symbols for upstart=1.5-0ubuntu7.2? it's missing from precise-updates on ddebs.ubuntu.com (but arm* is there) | 12:36 |
|---|---|---|
| bladernr` | anyone around? | 18:03 |
| bladernr` | What should I file a bug against for the live USB environment? | 18:03 |
| bladernr` | specifically, persistent storage doesn't seem to work on my 14.04 USB stick | 18:03 |
| === bladernr` is now known as bladernr_ | ||
| davmor2 | bladernr_: interesting one | 18:04 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: possibly casper | 18:04 |
| bladernr_ | davmor2: yeah, it kinda sucks... I spent 2 hours installing packages to one only to find out they all disappeared after I reboot :( | 18:04 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: but maybe have a word with cyphermox | 18:04 |
| bladernr_ | cyphermox estas aqui? | 18:05 |
| bladernr_ | davmor2: I will have pie next month. | 18:05 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: did you do a persistent install, it might be that the usb installer screwed up | 18:05 |
| cyphermox | sí | 18:05 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: oh why you in London | 18:05 |
| cyphermox | bladernr_: how did you setup that usb stick> | 18:06 |
| bladernr_ | I created it using usb-creator-gtk (Startup Disk Creator) and specified a 4GB persistent file (on a 16GB stick) and the installation appeared successful (I can boot it and do stuff) | 18:06 |
| cyphermox | was usb-creator up to date, and which version of usb-creator? I think I remember something about this recently? | 18:07 |
| bladernr_ | So as above, after that, I booted from it, installed a ton of stuff, rebooted and the ton of stuff was gone. | 18:07 |
| bladernr_ | ummm hold on. | 18:07 |
| bladernr_ | Yeah, according to apt-cache, 0.2.56.3 from trusty-updates | 18:07 |
| cyphermox | yeah, might be broken | 18:08 |
| cyphermox | https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/usb-creator/0.2.66 | 18:08 |
| cyphermox | I'll try to get the SRU soon for the persistence part, guessing you're booting in EFI | 18:09 |
| bladernr_ | Ahhh... interesting. I did boot in EFI mode | 18:09 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: fancy not knowing that do you not just sit there all day reading bug reports ;) | 18:09 |
| cyphermox | it's easy to check, in the grub menu verify whether you have 'persistent' set as a command-line parameter for the kernel | 18:09 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: man just as well I know cyphermox rocks right ;) | 18:11 |
| bladernr_ | cyphermox: where would that be on the live stick? etc/grub.d? in which case there's no instance of "persistent" in any boot option. | 18:12 |
| bladernr_ | davmor2: I know he does | 18:13 |
| cyphermox | /boot/grub/grub.cfg | 18:13 |
| bladernr_ | davmor2: he works harder than the two of us combined | 18:13 |
| bladernr_ | ^^ that's not saying much | 18:13 |
| bladernr_ | cyphermox: no such thing. | 18:13 |
| cyphermox | oops | 18:13 |
| cyphermox | ok, hold on :) | 18:14 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: I have to break his stuff to you know | 18:14 |
| bladernr_ | come on now, we know you just use a bunch of shell scripts for that ;-) | 18:14 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: I wish | 18:14 |
| bladernr_ | sudo ./do_daily_work.sh --time 8h --user davmor2 --no-interrupt-nap | 18:15 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: hahahahahahahaha love it | 18:15 |
| cyphermox | bladernr_: heh, I can't find it either right now, but I also didn't use usb-creator to make this usb key | 18:17 |
| bladernr_ | cyphermox: no worries... to double check, I'll do it the hard way (reboot and examine them from the menu then) | 18:18 |
| cyphermox | looks like usb-creator would mangle any *.cfg in boot/grub | 18:20 |
| bladernr_ | damn... I could have just looked at /proc/cmdline too. | 18:21 |
| bladernr_ | :/ | 18:21 |
| bladernr_ | in any case, when I boot the EFI launcher, the grub menu does not include 'persist' in the kernel boot options. After booting the Legacy loader instead, /proc/cmdline DOES show persistent in the options. I'll try again that way :) | 18:23 |
| bladernr_ | cyphermox: ^^ | 18:23 |
| cyphermox | you mean in non-EFI? | 18:23 |
| cyphermox | that's expected | 18:23 |
| bladernr_ | yeah, non-EFI | 18:24 |
| cyphermox | right | 18:24 |
| cyphermox | gfxboot-theme-ubuntu does add it, but only just before starting the kernel, that's why you don't see it in F6 | 18:24 |
| bladernr_ | yep, I thought as much. the boot menu on this server gives me both options so I'd been booting in EFI until now. | 18:24 |
| cyphermox | like I said, it's a matter of preparing the SRU for that fix from Yu Ning | 18:25 |
| cyphermox | in the meantime, you can add 'persistent' yourself unless it's lots more work | 18:25 |
| davmor2 | bladernr_: so you in london I don't think you did answer me | 18:25 |
| cyphermox | ... or edit whatever file is in boot/grub/*.cfg to add it there, should be enough to convince things to work | 18:25 |
| bladernr_ | cyphermox: ok... thanks! | 18:27 |
| bladernr_ | davmor2: on the way back from a sprint in early May I'm doing an overnight layover in London. Staying out by LHR but gonna come into the city for a while to do ... stuff... not sure what yet. There will be Pie... and likely Filipino or Curry... not sure yet. | 18:28 |
| roadmr | curry pie | 18:30 |
| bladernr_ | roadmr: there IS that... | 18:31 |
| roadmr | yum :) | 18:31 |
| bladernr_ | Now if only we could have sprints in Montreal again... I miss the good Poutine. | 18:31 |
| bladernr_ | and smoked meat. | 18:31 |
| pieter2627 | How would new peeps get involved in solving bugs (specifically papercuts as described on the bugsquad wiki)? | 18:35 |
| brendand | bladernr_, you want *really* good asian food | 20:00 |
| brendand | bladernr_, the place - http://www.tayyabs.co.uk/ | 20:01 |
| brendand | bladernr_, - you *will* need to queue :)! | 20:01 |
