| CarlFK | 00:1f.2 RAID bus controller: Intel Corporation SATA Controller [RAID mode] (rev 02) | 00:30 |
|---|---|---|
| CarlFK | not sure how it was configured... ran the installer, it seems to have installed, but wont' boot | 00:30 |
| CarlFK | I am in rescue mode, I was able to mount /dev/md126p1 and see the root fs. here is fdisk / df http://paste.ubuntu.com/16880009/ | 00:32 |
| CarlFK | hmm.. I should take this to #u | 00:32 |
| cyphermox | CarlFK: please file a bug, make sure you add as much information as possible (such as booting with 'verbose' and capturing the error messages on the console, so you probably want to take a picture) | 01:55 |
| CarlFK | cyphermox: k - what do I file the bug against ? | 02:03 |
| cyphermox | mdadm perhaps? | 02:04 |
| cyphermox | we can reassign as necessary | 02:04 |
| CarlFK | cyphermox: May 31 22:03:46 grub-installer: info: Installing grub on '/dev/md126p1' | 07:32 |
| CarlFK | is installing grub to a raid device supported ? | 07:33 |
| cyphermox | CarlFK: in that case it should install to the underlying devices. grub-installer should already know how to do this and fail early if it's not supported (and tell you it's the case) | 13:14 |
| cyphermox | if you can reach the rescue shell, you're already past booting with grub. | 13:14 |
| CarlFK | cyphermox: I booted the installer again | 13:14 |
| cyphermox | oh, actually, it could be a left-over grub though | 13:14 |
| cyphermox | ok | 13:15 |
| CarlFK | im 1/2 into reporting this against grub-installer ... | 13:15 |
| cyphermox | I don't think there is sufficient information right now to say it's grub-installer | 13:15 |
| cyphermox | if you want to report a bug, report it against mdadm, but make sure you add all the logs; that is to say, /var/log/syslog and /var/log/installer/syslog | 13:16 |
| CarlFK | damm, missed that. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1587889 | 13:34 |
| cyphermox | CarlFK: well, can the system boot after that? doesn't it fall down in an initramfs? | 14:07 |
| cyphermox | I'll test this in VMs in a bit | 14:08 |
| mowthegrass | Hi .. | 14:13 |
| mowthegrass | Any idea on how to pass a variable to a preseed file | 14:13 |
| mowthegrass | I am trying to execute the below | 14:13 |
| CarlFK | cyphermox: after what? (the only thing I have done is chroot /target grub-install --force "/dev/md126p1" ... grub-install: error: cannot find a device for /boot/grub (is /dev mounted?). | 14:13 |
| mowthegrass | d-i partman/early_command string \ | 14:14 |
| mowthegrass | 'OSDISK=$(cat /proc/partitions | tr -s " " | cut -d " " -f4,5 | grep "[hsv]d[a-z]$" | sort -n | grep [0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9] | head -1 | cut -d " " -f2); debconf-set partman-auto/disk "/dev/$OSDISK";debconf-set partman-auto/disk \"/dev/$OSDISK\"; debconf-set partman-auto/method string lvm;’ | 14:14 |
| cyphermox | CarlFK: it would be nice if you could do a full installation and reboot at the end if it finishes successfully, so we know whether it manages to boot and all | 14:32 |
| CarlFK | cyphermox: I did do a full install, and it doesn't boot (post ends, cursor sits and blinks) | 14:33 |
| cyphermox | though, like I said, I'll do that myself later | 14:34 |
| CarlFK | cyphermox: it not boots - I think what fixed it: grub-install --recheck --no-floppy /dev/md126 | 16:21 |
| CarlFK | I'll re-run the preseed install, then rescue mode, then just that | 16:22 |
| mowthegrass | Hello all has anyone tried to chainload a preseed configuration ? | 18:35 |
| mowthegrass | d-i preseed/include string seed1.cfg | 18:35 |
| mowthegrass | like the above example is that available for Ubuntu installation i dont see this in the sample preseed txt file availble here (https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/installation-guide/example-preseed.txt) | 18:36 |
| CarlFK | mowthegrass: I do | 19:16 |
| mowthegrass | carlFK can you help me with a sample preseed file | 19:17 |
| CarlFK | mowthegrass: d-i preseed/include string preseed_video.cfg preseed_disk.cfg preseed_local.cfg | 19:17 |
| CarlFK | https://github.com/CarlFK/veyepar/blob/master/setup/nodes/pxe/shaz/var/www/d-i/xenial/preseed.cfg | 19:17 |
| mowthegrass | Thank you so much let me try that | 19:18 |
| mowthegrass | I am trying to dynamically create a preseed-disk.cfg by partman/early_command | 19:20 |
| mowthegrass | basically changing the disk names and then perform a preseed/include | 19:21 |
| mowthegrass | let me check on that , Thx | 19:21 |
