[21:15] <rainbowwarrior> hello how do install boot-repair in ubuntu 18.10 please?
[21:16] <ikonia> look in the repo see if it's there
[21:16] <ikonia> 18.10 is very early in the cycle still, 
[21:16] <nacc> !info boot-repair cosmic
[21:16] <nacc> no such package in ubuntu, afaict
[21:16] <ikonia> there you go then
[21:16] <rainbowwarrior> ok ty
[21:17] <nacc> presumably youd' install it in 18.10 however you install it any other version, if it's supported
[21:17] <rainbowwarrior> ok
[21:18] <Bashing-om> eaMemme check and see if yannubuntu's PPA supoorts cosmic .
[21:18] <ikonia> I wouldn't look at ppa's for pre-release
[21:20] <rainbowwarrior> is there anywhere else i can get it instead of paa?
[21:20] <rainbowwarrior> ppa*
[21:20] <ikonia> why do you need it ?
[21:21] <rainbowwarrior> because its going straight into windows and not giving me the choice of windows or ubuntu 
[21:21] <ikonia> you don't need boot repair for that
[21:21] <ikonia> you need to understand where/if your boot loader is installed
[21:21] <rainbowwarrior> oh
[21:22] <nacc> i would think just booting into the live usb would be sufficient
[21:22] <ikonia> more than enough
[21:26] <Bashing-om> ikonia: as norm is correct .. boot-repair not supported in 18.10 .
[21:43] <rainbowwarrior> hmm 
[21:44] <rainbowwarrior> when i try use the old ppa for boot-repair i get sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair
[21:44] <rainbowwarrior> sudo: unable to resolve host ubuntu: Resource temporarily unavailable
[21:44] <rainbowwarrior> Cannot add PPA: 'ppa:~yannubuntu/ubuntu/boot-repair'.
[21:44] <ikonia> so "don't use a PPA" was the recommendation
[21:44] <ikonia> not only do you ignore that, you actually try to use a PPA designed for a different OS
