| sevynos | btw, is this procedure good for a lvm partition? | 00:00 |
|---|---|---|
| tomreyn | sevynos: you'll need to enable any and all such intermediary layers from the live cd, too, as you would during the normal boot. | 00:01 |
| tomreyn | i.e. assemble raid, 'open' full disk encryption, detect and activate existing LVM2 PVs, VGs, LVs | 00:03 |
| sevynos | ok, I'll look at that. thanks | 00:06 |
| tomreyn | basically thats pvscan + lvchange -ay YourVolumeGroupNameGoesHere | 00:09 |

| SSMAdmin | Hi all. I try to motivate my fb-network to migrate to Mastodon. To make the transition as easy as possible for them, I offer a Mastodon installation where I want to integrate a LIVE SUPPORT CHAT APPLET. However, there is some Content Security Policy running in Mastodon that prevents me to run this javascript live support chat applet. How do I change this so this applet can be allowed to run? | 09:50 |
| zzarr_ | Hello! | 11:35 |
| zzarr_ | I have installed ubuntu-server un a HP laptop (Probook 4330s) | 11:35 |
| zzarr_ | but it will not boot | 11:36 |
| blackflow | zzarr_: can you elaborate? is there an error displayed? | 12:44 |
| zzarr_ | no, the computer says there's no bootable device | 12:49 |
| zzarr_ | it's a non-efi bios | 12:49 |
| blackflow | zzarr_: did you choose wrong driver for GRUB installation? | 12:50 |
| blackflow | I am assuming the USB stick booted fine, installer worked, but after reboot, it fails like this? | 12:51 |
| zzarr_ | no, there's only one, I used the entire disk | 12:51 |
| blackflow | wrong *drive | 12:51 |
| zzarr_ | yes, the usb drive boots fine | 12:51 |
| blackflow | zzarr_: and grub was installed to _disk_ not to a partition? | 12:52 |
| zzarr_ | yes | 12:52 |
| zzarr_ | it's server 18.04.1 I installed | 12:53 |
| blackflow | zzarr_: can you boot into a rescue environment and pastebin partitioning summary on the drive? eg. the output of parted /dev/sda unit mib print | 12:57 |
| blackflow | from what you said I'm guessing maybe that computer has trouble with legacy (bios) boot or the installer was run under EFI and it installed EFI and you're trying legacy/BIOS boot | 12:57 |
| zzarr_ | yes | 12:58 |
| zzarr_ | there's no efi (no /boot/efi) | 12:59 |
| blackflow | pastebin the output of that command, please | 13:00 |
| zzarr_ | I will | 13:02 |
| zzarr_ | https://pastebin.com/hKjbwjcB | 13:10 |
| zzarr_ | sorry that it took time, the network was not correctly setup | 13:11 |
| blackflow | zzarr_: looks okay, so it doesn't make any sense, unless grub is not really installed on that drive. | 13:20 |
| zzarr_ | it should be, there was no error message while installing | 13:21 |
| blackflow | zzarr_: from the rescue environment, you can mount and chroot into root (don't forget to bind-mount /proc, /sys and /dev into the chroot), and retry grub-install | 13:21 |
| blackflow | assuming of course you checked the most obvious, like boot device in bios. Is it trying that SSD at all. | 13:22 |
| zzarr_ | yes | 13:22 |
| zzarr_ | I have had Ubuntu installed on the machine on that very drive earlier and it was booting just fine :) | 13:23 |
| zzarr_ | (Ubuntu Desktop) | 13:23 |
| zzarr_ | it installed just fine | 13:27 |
| zzarr_ | if it does not work, could I use another bootloader? | 13:28 |
| blackflow | you shouldn't. grub is not an issue here, except maybe it not being installed properly. | 13:29 |
| zzarr_ | it says that it's installed correctly | 13:29 |
| blackflow | there's no difference between ubuntu desktop and service in that part (and in general only difference is packages and configurations installed atop of ubuntu-minimal, grub and the kernel) | 13:30 |
| blackflow | zzarr_: you tried it in a chroot? | 13:31 |
| zzarr_ | I know, but I installed Ubuntu desktop a while back | 13:31 |
| zzarr_ | you mean grub-install? | 13:32 |
| blackflow | yes | 13:32 |
| zzarr_ | in that case yes | 13:32 |
| blackflow | and rebooted, and it still doens't find the boot device? | 13:32 |
| zzarr_ | I bind-mounted /proc, /dev and /sys | 13:32 |
| zzarr_ | yes | 13:32 |
| blackflow | try plugging that SSD into another machine and see if it boots there. | 13:33 |
| blackflow | oh, wait, one more thing.... how old is that machine? | 13:33 |
| zzarr_ | 2011 | 13:33 |
| zzarr_ | (I think) | 13:33 |
| blackflow | is it possible that the bios can't read GPT? | 13:34 |
| blackflow | previous Ubuntu (Desktop) versions by default installed with MBR scheme | 13:34 |
| zzarr_ | I guess so | 13:34 |
| blackflow | frankly, I don't know if MBR is still used or not, I haven't run the default installer in Ubuntu for long time, I use debootstrap or manual partitioning (because FDE with external USB /boot) | 13:35 |
| zzarr_ | if I reinstall it' can I select MBR instead it GPT? | 13:35 |
| blackflow | I don't know if there's an option. If ther isn't, you'll have to partition manually and then have the installer use existing partitions for the filesystem | 13:35 |
| zzarr_ | well, that would be an option | 13:35 |
| zzarr_ | I have to go soon, but, I'll try the installer and see if' there's a MBR option | 13:37 |
| zzarr_ | other whys I will debootstrap and make a manual install | 13:37 |

| === crimastergogo_ is now known as crimastergogo | ||
| cryptodan_mobile | Install with efi and it will format the drive as gpt | 15:52 |
| tomreyn | SSMAdmin: change mastodon's CSP to allow the javascript, or use a chat which doesn't require injecting javascript, or run the chat in a separate browser window / tab. and no, this is hardly an #ubuntu-server question, maybe one for the chat applications' or mastodon's support chat. | 15:58 |
| SSMAdmin | @tomreyn thank you for answering, and please accept my apology. I am deeply sorry to have posted in the wrong channel, I thought I was posting in #mastodon. | 16:24 |
| tomreyn | SSMAdmin: hehe, no problem, glad i could point this out then. | 16:25 |
| SSMAdmin | @tomreyn thank you :-) | 16:26 |

| zzarr_ | I'm back | 17:45 |
| zzarr_ | I managed to install the system and grub "yay" | 17:45 |
| zzarr_ | just forgot about a small thing... the kernel | 17:46 |
| tomreyn | minor issues ;) | 18:04 |
| zzarr_ | I fixed that, now I just need to understand how to bring an network device up so I the machine get's an ip | 18:06 |
| tomreyn | depends much on the ubuntu version | 18:07 |
| zzarr_ | 18.04.1 | 18:07 |
| zzarr_ | no ifconfig | 18:07 |
| tomreyn | server, right? | 18:07 |
| zzarr_ | yes | 18:07 |
| tomreyn | you wont use it as a desktop? | 18:07 |
| zzarr_ | no | 18:07 |
| tomreyn | then it's systemd-networkd, optionally managed by netplan | 18:09 |
| zzarr_ | okey, is there a simple way to just activate a device like this command in the old days "ifconfig eth0 up" | 18:10 |
| ahasenack | well, you can always just run "dhclient <nicname>" | 18:11 |
| zzarr_ | right, I'll do that | 18:12 |
| tomreyn | zzarr_: https://help.ubuntu.com/lts/serverguide/network-configuration.html.en#ip-addressing | 18:12 |
| zzarr_ | thanks :) | 18:13 |
| tomreyn | note the 'temporary' approach there, too, in case dhcp wont work | 18:14 |
| zzarr_ | I see, no matter what I do, the fs is read-only and I can't get the network to work | 18:21 |
| zzarr_ | I think I have to install some drivers | 18:22 |
| blackflow | zzarr_: the fs is readonly because you probably forgot fstab, so the "ro" mount is inherited from initramfs | 19:42 |
| blackflow | as for the network, you really need this simple .network file (if it is dhcp) and enable+start the systemd-networkd.service https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/systemd-networkd#Basic_DHCP_network | 19:43 |
| zzarr_ | blackflow, you are correct, I realized that the fs is not remounted on start | 20:30 |
| zzarr_ | I'll have a look at your link | 20:31 |
