fatbrain | Hi, is there a way to install 18.04-lts server on mbr instead of gpt? | 16:47 |
tumbleweed | boot via legacy BIOS, not UEFI | 16:54 |
fatbrain | my system doesnt support UEFI | 16:57 |
tomreyn | fatbrain: so it'll be straight forward, i guess | 17:08 |
foo | I migrated from old digital ocean droplet to a new one. Same server specs. Ubuntu 14.04 to 18.04 (fresh install). I'm having a strange issue where some of my processes are hanging and building up (eg. ones that run every minute). I see this when I strace it, wait4(-1, ... until it dies: https://paste.ofcode.org/EHDvp2N6Y9cpbt2yNVAJ2v - can anyone else here make sense of this? | 19:12 |
fatbrain | tumbleweed, tomreyn: problem is that when I install the installed automatically partitions the disk using GPT instead of MBR. My system refuses to boot the using the "legacy bios" 1M grub core.img partition. | 21:55 |
tumbleweed | is that the new installer? I don't know much about that | 21:56 |
tomreyn | fatbrain: try the alternative server installer then. this, however, will also default to gpt partition tables if storages are >= 2 TB | 21:57 |
fatbrain | tumbleweed: probably, haven't installed since 16.04 don't remember what that looked like | 21:57 |
fatbrain | tomreyn: my system storage is 120GB, I'll try the alternative installer. | 21:58 |
tomreyn | also be sure to create msdos/mbr partition tables before you start the installer. it would not replace the existing gpt's | 21:58 |
