[09:14] <FourDollars> I found there is some issue in partman-efi of ubiquity. How can I debug it?
[10:05] <AndChat|486164> FourDollars: start by looking into /var/log/installer
[10:06] <FourDollars> I see. Thx.
[18:13] <cyphermox> FourDollars: if you find bugs, please file them in Launchpad. I can help with the debugging
[18:21] <rickardve2> cyphermox: I'm interested in debugging/resolving:
[18:21] <rickardve2> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1505839
[18:21] <ubot2> Launchpad bug 1505839 in debian-installer "Unable to install from text mode interface" [Medium,Triaged]
[18:22] <rickardve2> do you have any hints on how to debug it?
[18:24] <cyphermox> does it work properly if you don't preseed the language stuff? it looks like that preseeding is wrong
[18:24] <cyphermox> (although I couldn't look at the full preseed file)
[18:27] <rickardve2> here is a example preseed file:
[18:27] <rickardve2> https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rickard-von-essen/bento/ubuntu-15.10/http/ubuntu-15.10/preseed.cfg
[18:27] <cyphermox> you usually want to preseed layoutcode and modelcode, not layout or model directly
[18:28] <cyphermox> without knowing where the install stops and requires manual interaction or what error message comes up I can't really comment
[18:31] <rickardve2> the thing is the install never starts it just throws you back to the GUI installer. and it works if you from the GUI installer enter expert mode and deletes the boot command and type the one in the bug report.
[18:37] <cyphermox> rickardve2: I'm not sure I follow, the GUI installer? are you using a desktop image?
[18:40] <rickardve2> no the server.
[18:42] <rickardve2> sorry I'm not sure exactly what each component is called.
[18:43] <rickardve2> when you boot with the server iso you get a language selector and after that you'll see something like http://pad2.whstatic.com/images/thumb/9/9b/Install-Ubuntu-Linux-Step-4-Version-2.jpg/670px-Install-Ubuntu-Linux-Step-4-Version-2.jpg
[18:52] <rickardve2> if you push esc there is a question "to exit the graphical boot menu and enter the text installer"
[18:53] <rickardve2> the boot command + preseed file works from inside the "graphical boot menu" but not if you exit the the text mode interface, then you just get sent back to the graphical boot menu after you typed the boot command.
