[00:00] <remote> i mean, the boot process is clearly saying something like "starting haflskuhsldaihudl [FAILED]" and I'm stuck with nothing relevant in dmesg
[00:01] <remote> systemd failed to start load kernel modules
[01:07] <rypervenche> Gorian: Yeah, sorry, I went out.
[01:08] <Gorian> lol, no problem
[01:08] <Gorian> if you were still interested, this is what I have so far, but it's not done or tested with the latest additions :P
[01:08] <Gorian> http://pastebin.com/nU1STFwj
[01:11] <rypervenche> Gorian: You could do something like: ls -l /dev/disk/by-id/ | awk '{print $NF"\t"$9}' | sed 's|../../||' | sort | grep -v ^0
[01:12] <Gorian> I always read that you should NOT rely on ls output for any automation
[01:12] <Gorian> opinion?
[01:12] <rypervenche> Oh, you didn't say this was for building machines when I asked what your goal was.
[01:13] <rypervenche> I would agree with that, but I was just giving you something much shorter.
[01:13] <Gorian> sorry, I thought I did
[01:13] <Gorian> it's rough atm, obviously I have no argument checking or anyting
[01:13] <Gorian> *anything
[01:13] <Gorian> I just need it to work right now, I can polish it later :P
[01:16] <rypervenche> find /dev/disk/by-id/ -type l -printf '%l: %p\n'
[01:16] <rypervenche> That's even better.
[01:16] <rypervenche> I'd make it prettier, but the idea is there.
[01:20] <rypervenche> Gorian: So this is for making chrooted environments?
[01:20] <Gorian> no
[01:20] <Gorian> hang on
[01:20] <Gorian> https://github.com/zfsonlinux/zfs/wiki/Ubuntu-16.04-Root-on-ZFS
[01:20] <Gorian> I'm installing Ubuntu j16.04 LTS on top of a root ZFS mirror, on multiple servers
[01:20] <Gorian> so I'm writing a script to automate the process
[01:21] <Gorian> I've done it successfully manually before, but it's too long and annoying to do it that way multiple times
[01:22] <rypervenche> Ahh, gotcha.
[01:42] <Gorian> so, I've decided that my script would work better if I told it to mirror two DIFFERENT disks... instead of the same ones...
[01:43] <Gorian> *one
[01:43] <Gorian> I made a typo and it tried to tell zfs to make a mirror from /dev/<sda> and /dev/<sda>
[01:44] <Gorian> and ZFS was all like "WTF? no"
[02:17] <Gorian> grub-install: error: filesystem 'zfs' doesn't support blocklists
[02:17] <Gorian> :/
[02:17] <Gorian> why broken?
[02:18] <k2gremlin> Hello all, I have a friend that is going to be deploying soon. I am trying to setup a VM server for him to remote access. What is the most secure way to give him remote access?
[02:18] <cooldharma06> Hi all
[02:19] <cooldharma06> While installing Ubuntu server from usb facing loading modules usb-storahe..
[02:19] <remote> k2gremlin: disabling TOFU for ssh keys and using 3rd factor authentication
[02:20] <k2gremlin> TOFU?
[02:20] <cooldharma06> I am trying to install Ubuntu server along with windows 10 and via USB I am doing
[02:20] <k2gremlin> How would I setup 3rd factor auth?
[02:21] <remote> k2gremlin: one way is via pam
[02:21] <k2gremlin> like an RSA key?
[02:22] <remote> k2gremlin: I didn't mean what I said for SSH, just don't accept unknown keys for the account
[02:23] <remote> k2gremlin: when asking your question you said "the most secure way"
[02:24] <remote> that's not it but it's the best I can do
[02:24] <k2gremlin> remote, lol I see. Sorry, the most practical way that is pretty secure.. I mean not trying to secure a NASA server or anything lol
[02:24] <k2gremlin> I should generate an SSH key and give that to him.. eh?
[02:25] <k2gremlin> At least it will be somewhat secure lol
[02:26] <remote> nah, just start the ssh server, make sure he uses a strong password, see that you disable his account when appropriate if need be
[02:27] <k2gremlin> Couldn't really see the need to disable it. If it gets compromised ill just kill the server. However, this guy is a fking rock star when it comes to IT stuff so I am sure I would have a problem. Just trying to do him a favor :)
[02:28] <remote> awesome
[02:28] <remote> maybe he can help you if you have problems
[02:29] <k2gremlin> Yea he was meaning to setup his VPN again before deploying.. but he just ran out of time.. So he will probably use it for that.
[02:29] <remote> make sure to append the following line to his bashrc file:
[02:29] <remote> alias ls="echo wut?"
[02:30] <remote> if he can't figure it out you can call him off for drunk deployment
[02:30] <k2gremlin> hahaha
[02:31] <k2gremlin> more like "echo WTF? You think this is linux?"
[02:32] <k2gremlin> I consider myself an entry level linux user... he blows me away. If I did something like that, he might break out of the VM and sabotage my media server or something lol
[02:34] <cooldharma06> Any suggestions regarding my query
[02:37] <cooldharma06> Is xenial is missing usb-storage kernel module.
[02:50] <halvors> Any idea why i'm getting this when trying to use "netstat-net"? http://pastebin.com/JLXqNHdv
[02:55] <remote> halvors: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netstat-nat/+bug/1631399
[02:56] <remote> halvors: i hadn't realized you submitted that
[02:57] <remote> halvors: are you missing access privileges or is netfilter disabled?
[02:57] <remote>  
[02:58] <remote> halvors: paste the output of `strace -fvo output.log netstat-nat'
[03:22] <k2gremlin> remote,
[03:22] <remote> hi
[03:22] <k2gremlin> I can access the server from my phone on carrier...
[03:22] <k2gremlin> but he cant on his mac
[03:22] <remote> tell him to get a phone
[03:22] <k2gremlin> He can ping my domain but its telling him cannot resolve hostname
[03:22] <k2gremlin> when he tris to ssh
[03:23] <remote> try the mac address
[03:24] <cooldharma06> Any ppl from Ubuntu facing some issue with Ubuntu server installation missing some kernel modules in image
[03:24] <halvors> remote: Here you go: http://pastebin.com/XJxfFQsD
[03:24] <halvors> remote: Maybe the filepath to the files it's trying to reach has changed?
[03:26] <remote> halvors: look at line 29 and 30
[03:31] <halvors> remote: Yeah i know, but how can i do nat if those files doesn't exist? Something must have been changed here.
[03:32] <remote> i think what's affecting your nat is a human factor
[03:33] <remote> what do you think about searching for a solution before asking and providing more details instead of just a problem when asking for help?
[03:34] <remote> i mean, i can't help you, but i'm sure you can find out more on your own
[03:34] <k2gremlin> remote, LMFAO! Hes in on his phone.. His MAC is jacked up.. lol
[03:36] <remote> k2gremlin: make sure he doesn't jackit up too deep or you might need medical assistance
[03:36] <remote> s/you/he/
[03:36] <cooldharma06> Anyone installed Ubuntu server 16.04 from usb
[03:36] <k2gremlin> lol remote.
[03:36] <remote> cooldharma06: i did that earlier
[03:37] <cooldharma06> Facing some issue as error loading modules 'modprobe -v usb-storage'
[03:39] <remote> cooldharma06: when? in what context?
[03:41] <cooldharma06> Remote give some mins I ll share screenshot
[03:45] <cooldharma06> remote plz check this image..

[03:46] <cooldharma06> Any suggestions dude
[03:48] <remote> that's not an image it's an html file
[03:49] <halvors> remote: I've done a lot of reasearch on this, not found any sources that have got netstat-nat working after 14.04.
[03:49] <remote> who serves html as .jpg ?
[03:50] <remote> cooldharma06: open a console and run the command manually and paste the output
[03:50] <cooldharma06> While installing os itself facing this error
[03:50] <remote> cooldharma06: i'm assuming you can't complete the install once you press continue?
[03:50] <remote>  
[03:50] <tsimonq2>  
[03:50] <cooldharma06> That is image link only

[03:54] <remote> cooldharma06: what happens when you run the command manually?
[03:54] <cooldharma06> I am having windows as my primary. Trying dual os with Ubuntu server facing this error
[03:55] <cooldharma06> remote: while installing os from usb facing this error.
[03:56] <k2gremlin> bad iso on the USB would be my guess
[03:56] <k2gremlin> reimage the USB drive with the os
[03:56] <remote> from the computer you are installing ubuntu on, press ALT+F2
[03:56] <remote> execute the command and tell us what the output is
[03:57] <remote> k2gremlin: it may be a problem with the installer
[03:58] <k2gremlin> Could be a problem with the download he got as well :)
[03:58] <cooldharma06> 'Modprobe Error: could not insert usb_storage : Required key not available
[03:59] <cooldharma06> But I tried to install as vm it working fine when trying with USB facing this error
[04:02] <cooldharma06> remote k2gremlin is there any way can I import that module into my system through console
[04:27] <remote> modprobe usb-storage

[07:12] <PCdude> hi all :)
[07:13] <PCdude> I have setup openstack, but have still some questions about it
[07:13] <PCdude> I have made a convenient askubuntu.com post
[07:13] <PCdude> http://askubuntu.com/questions/832736/openstack-with-autopilot-some-networking-clear-up
[10:52] <sliddddis> If I download the 16.10 beta 2 today, how hard will it be to get up to date normal 16.10 in 4 days?
[10:53] <bekks> As hard as typing a two commands.
[10:54] <remote> sliddddis: at least a bit easier than how hard it would need to be to dissuade you from running the beta today
[11:13] <sliddddis> bekks just update and upgrade?
[11:15] <bekks> Yes.
[12:37] <linux_user> In succession to the instantiation of a CentOS/RHEL installation, within the /root directory, there exists a residual file in kickstart format indicative of all the options selected during the course of the GUI install. Whence Ubuntu is installed, where is just such a residual file located in succession to the installation that is in kickstart format?
[12:38] <ikonia> linux_user: are you using kickstart to install ubuntu
[12:39] <ikonia> linux_user: it's actually anaconda that creates that file, not kickstart
[12:39] <linux_user> no, the GUI (just like I did a CentOS GUI install and the file was residual)
[12:39] <linux_user> I know
[12:39] <ikonia> ubuntu will not create that file
[12:39] <linux_user> does Ubuntu generate such a file in succession to its install?
[12:39] <ikonia> no
[12:39] <linux_user> oh
[12:39] <linux_user> that blows
[12:39] <ikonia> not really
[12:40] <linux_user> sure it does, with CentOS you can do a full install and have a residual kickstart file to start with for changing it
[12:44] <ikonia> linux_user: but has ubuntu normally uses preseed based automated installs that would be worthless
[12:45] <linux_user> I do not know what preseed is, but what I want to do is do a gui install and have a starting kickstart file to use to modify or just repeat the install absent the GUI the second time around. Why would that ever be worthless? Surely that must be some joke.
[12:46] <linux_user> I appreciate your assistance none the less.
[12:46] <ikonia> why do you want a kickstart file
[12:46] <ikonia> (for ubuntu)
[12:47] <ikonia> you'd be better building a preseed config that has full support of all the options
[12:51] <linux_user> Indeed I disagree, what would be better for me is kickstart since I already use them for CentOS, unless you are suggesting preseed exists for CentOS/RHEL, does it? Why would I wish to use an entirely different and non-standard system?
[12:52] <linux_user> At any rate, I found the system-config-kickstart thingy and plan to use it in combination with merging some statements from my CentOS generated kickstart file to try to generate one for Ubuntu
[12:55] <ikonia> linux_user: what has centos got to do with anything
[12:55] <ikonia> you're using ubuntu/trying to install ubuntu
[12:55] <ikonia> use the ubuntu tools such as pressed
[12:57] <linux_user> You are asking that because you did not read entirely my initial question, now I get it! Let me repaste it! “In succession to the instantiation of a CentOS/RHEL installation, within the /root directory, there exists a residual file in kickstart format indicative of all the options selected during the course of the GUI install. Whence Ubuntu is installed, where is just such a residual file located in succession to the
[12:57] <linux_user> installation that is in kickstart format?” I work in a CentOS environment and some jackass executive is demanding Ubuntu, so we are trying to make it work, but we USE kickstart and CentOS. The better question is why is kickstart so unusable for Ubuntu when the business world uses CentOS and Kickstart and Ubuntu is trying to enter that fold? Why force people to learn and use another technology, its not required and waste
[12:57] <linux_user> time and money. That is why.
[12:58] <ikonia> of course it's not a waste of time and a money
[12:58] <linux_user> So can we get back to my question now you know why?
[12:58] <ikonia> no, I'll leave you to it, you seem to think you know the answers already, so carry on
[12:59] <linux_user> thank you. If you do not know how to use Kickstart I understand that, totally cool on that, but I am not interested in changing the question to fit the answers you have. Thanks though.
[12:59] <ikonia> I use kickstart every day
[14:35] <tomreyn> lol, that attitude
[17:58] <Anonymes> Hi
[21:54] <pmatulis> linux_user, redhat/centos uses kickstart and debian/ubuntu uses preseed. however, ubuntu does have rudimentary support for kickstart files but i don't think it creates the file you're after. beyond that information, what's the use of asking 'why doesn't ubuntu fully support kickstart?'? it just doesn't. just like redhat does not support preseed
[21:54] <pmatulis> (at all)
[23:00] <JanC> also, if you want better kickstart support, you can look into adding it, I guess...
