=== miguel_ is now known as Guest41258 [07:03] hi during the ubuntu server 18.04 installation I setup two raid1. one for sda1+sdb1 = md0 as / and the second sda2+sdb2 = md1 as /home. However, I was not able to setup md0 as bootable partition, and then I got busybox-initramfs error, can you help me? [09:34] morning cpaelzer [09:35] I was going to drop the 32 bit archs from ceph for cosmic; however I then realized how may reverse-depends there are of librados and librdb [09:35] so putting them back but it will take me a while to sort out the 32 bit builds... [09:52] hi jamespage [09:53] thanks for the FYI [09:53] is there anything on this you need me to do? [09:57] jamespage: you reming me that I wanted to ask you if you think https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2018-August/350437.html is a problem or if we can just wait for things to get into the usual released versions [09:57] actually I just checked the latest packaging branch and we don't have the broken code [09:57] so it might only be an issue if merging a newer upstream which has the bad code but not yet the fix [09:57] what are the openvswitch current plans for now jamespage? [09:58] cpaelzer: I was working on 2.9.2 but having trouble with testsuite reliablility [09:58] oh no I did upload that already [09:59] the offending patch of the issue I mentioned is of a few days ago [09:59] and not yet released [09:59] so it would be resolved on 2.9.3 or any other new versison I'd think [09:59] yeah I see 2.9.2 in proposed [10:00] is it hanging on said testsuite issues? [10:13] jamespage: hey, do you know anything about ceph not building extensions for python3.7? [10:18] huh uh forcing use of gcc-7 on arm because of bugs in gcc-6 seems out of date :) [10:32] mwhudson: hmm [10:32] mwhudson: I do not [10:33] mwhudson: we can probably drop the gcc-7 bits for arm64 now [10:33] that was more for the auto-backports to xenial [10:33] which for mimic (as in cosmic) is not a concern [10:47] jamespage: maybe it should just not depend on python3-all-dev then :) [10:47] would be the easiest way to get it off http://people.canonical.com/~ubuntu-archive/transitions/html/python3.7-add.html [14:11] nacc: whislock I just read something interesting: https://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/04/drivers/driversdetails?driverId=X3P75 look at D703 referencing drive taken offline under certain circumstances. I have D703 drives in my server === uplime is now known as nchambers [14:38] nacc: whislock and yup my drives are listed under that firmware fix for the drives. So I will create a bootable cd in windows and update the firmware on all my drives then do a test of ubuntu 16.04 this weekend and see if I have the same issues [16:15] cryptodan_mobile: seems reasonalbe [16:16] I'm trying to run a PXE install on a UEFI client. I've got the PXE install working fine on BIOS clients, but the furthest I can get with UEFI is booting using the grubnetx64.efi.signed and being dumped to a GRUB prompt. Do I really need to rewrite my pxelinux.cfg in grub for this to all work for UEFI clients? [16:16] hi nacc :) [16:19] leftyfb: Maybe look at https://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=PXELINUX#UEFI for ideas [16:20] leftyfb: does that imply it's simply not loading a config file? [16:20] nacc: yeah, it's looking for grub/grub.cfg among some other grub files [16:21] I don't even have a grub at all. Up until now it hasn't been necessary [16:23] leftyfb: can you describe the config of your BIOS clients? [16:25] nacc: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/szs9xYNvMT/ [16:25] that's my pxelinux.0/default [16:25] not sure what other config you're looking for [16:26] sorry, pxelinux.cfg/default [16:27] leftyfb: so direct boot of kernel? [16:28] yep, not need for interaction. It's all done headless [16:28] not/no [16:28] leftyfb: and what file is being serv ed over dhcp? [16:28] pxelinux.0 for BIOS clients [16:31] leftyfb: i think you need to server out some efi file, iirc [16:31] syslinux.efi ? [16:31] and then can do the same config file, iirc [16:31] I'm trying that now [16:32] from genii's link [16:32] ah yeah, that's what i'm remembering [16:32] I HATE EFI btw [16:32] until now I've always had the option of disabling it [16:38] other than this, what is particularly different? [16:39] are you kidding? [16:40] leftyfb: I mean, in practice, I don't know why you "hate EFI" [16:40] it's a massive mess working out how to do different installations with EFI [16:40] it's always a mess every time I attempt it [16:40] is that because folks aren't spec compliant? [16:41] no idea [16:42] And if that's the case, then it's still a mess. The blame might not be on EFI, but on the vendor. But in the grand scheme of things, that doesn't make my stuff work :) [16:43] right [16:43] i just recall seeing the same thing with BIOS before [16:45] I have 2 machines with EFI and it was painless to setup. one machine is dual boot with windows 10 and linux mint [16:46] "works for me" doesn't help people who have issues [16:48] on my lap top I had to change it from booting the windows efi boot manager to booting the ubuntu efi manager in the bios [17:02] hi, I'installing ubuntu-server18.04, the installation hangs at update-grub, do you know why? [17:02] EFI problems? ;) [17:05] leftyfb, did you answer to me? [17:08] Anyone know why http_proxy variable isn't used unless its run on the command as apt? (ubuntu 18.04) It makes no sense [17:16] moffa: evidence? [17:17] Well, just experience. When I run sudo echo $http_proxy, the variable is shown. But apt will hang. If I run http_proxy=http://proxyinfo apt-get update it works === saint___ is now known as saint_ [18:36] blah it was the sudoers file, I didn't a space between http_proxy and https_proxy not sure why it still echo'd the variable but its fixed. [21:59] Any word on when http://changelogs.ubuntu.com/meta-release-lts will point to 18.04 point release? [22:00] This file is used by server installs to check for next LTS release. [22:00] AFAIK [22:05] pztrick: that's right, and no, not known, but 'soon' [22:06] hi sarnold [22:06] are u here? [22:06] i was playing with that abandonware more :D [22:06] hehe [22:06] it uses a lot of outdated packages
