[00:00] <AgeOfAsparagus> install.sh
[00:00] <AgeOfAsparagus> oh, it's the server
[00:00] <AgeOfAsparagus> lol
[00:00] <CarlFK> right.
[00:01] <AgeOfAsparagus> I'm not sure how that would help when I already have a working pxe booter?
[00:01] <AgeOfAsparagus> it's just the preseeding, and the boot commands
[00:02] <AgeOfAsparagus> (btw THank you for helping me!)
[00:02] <CarlFK> that sets up the presseding and whatever
[00:03] <CarlFK> what you will want to tune:
[00:03] <CarlFK> https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/blob/master/setup/nodes/pxe/shaz/var/lib/tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default#L56
[00:03] <CarlFK>         append initrd=ubuntu/xenial/amd64/initrd.gz root=/dev/rd/0 rw  auto=true netcfg/wireless_wep= interface=auto hostname=  netcfg/dhcpv6_timeout=5 DEBCONF_DEBUG=5 url=g2a tasks="ubuntu-desktop"  partman-auto/disk="/dev/sdb" -- vga=6
[00:03] <CarlFK> partman-auto/disk="/dev/sdb"  what disk to install/boot from
[00:03] <CarlFK>  url=g2a (hmm, that's my new server.  what happened to $SHAZ... )  anyway, that needs to point back to where your pxe files are
[00:04] <CarlFK> https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/tree/master/setup/nodes/pxe/shaz/var/www/d-i/xenial
[00:04] <CarlFK> review and adjust those to your likeing
[00:05] <CarlFK> may be those are all you need to get your system working
[00:06] <AgeOfAsparagus> Thanks, I'll test them out.
[00:17] <AgeOfAsparagus> your append doesn't point to the seed?
[00:20] <AgeOfAsparagus> omg things are happening
[00:20] <AgeOfAsparagus>  =D
[00:22] <AgeOfAsparagus> Carl
[00:22] <CarlFK> ?
[00:22] <AgeOfAsparagus> CarlFK: Is url= to your preseed file?
[00:23] <CarlFK> sort of
[00:23] <CarlFK> url= points to the server.  d-i/xenial/preseed.cfg is the default
[00:24] <AgeOfAsparagus> ok, will nfs work to serve it?
[00:25] <CarlFK> I have heard of that.
[00:34] <AgeOfAsparagus> When you are trying to install a classroom full of computers, how do you prevent them from all having the same hostname given in the boot command?
[00:35] <CarlFK> my dhcp server constructs a hostname based on the IP addresses
[00:36] <CarlFK> so 192.168.1.123 gets hostname dhcp123
[00:36] <AgeOfAsparagus> ok, thanks
[00:36] <CarlFK> or you can assign hostames to mac here https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/blob/master/setup/nodes/pxe/shaz/etc/dhcp/dhcpd-macs.conf
[01:53] <CarlFK> AgeOfAsparagus_: working ok?  I am getting ready to go off for a while
[01:54] <AgeOfAsparagus_> I can't get the seed file to load.... tried tftp, now gonna try nfs
[01:55] <AgeOfAsparagus_> I was trying "url=tftp://host/path/to/preseed.cfg"
[01:55] <AgeOfAsparagus_> but don't know how to point it properly
[01:55] <AgeOfAsparagus_> tftp is working, because I could get the seed file from another computer on the network
[01:56] <AgeOfAsparagus_> do I need a url in there? port?
[02:03] <CarlFK> why not use http?
[02:03] <CarlFK> as in, use a web server to serve up the file
[02:14] <AgeOfAsparagus_> Because I don't have one running yet and was hoping to just use the tftp since it's already there for netboot
[02:14] <AgeOfAsparagus_> plus it's another thing I don't know how to do...*duck*
[02:26] <AgeOfAsparagus_> Dang, that was way easier.  And it worked!  Bad archive mirror! WOOHOO! (means I got passed loading the seed =)
[02:40] <CarlFK> yup
[02:40] <CarlFK> if you are using my presseed file, it hists a local squid caching proxy
[02:42] <CarlFK> not sure that will help, it does add something that doesn't work now and then, like if you add a repository for some weird app and it isn't in the white list.. 404 and you aren't sure why
[16:43] <Guest81836> good morning, anyone here that can have a look at a d-i installer rebuild bug in yaketty?
