| xrandr_mac | Can I install ubuntu server from. The network install cd? | 08:58 |
| RoyK | xrandr_mac: so long that you have network access during the installation, yes - I've used that a lot | 10:04 |
| RoyK | any idea what to do when I try to make a package and I get this error? http://paste.debian.net/1074553/ | 10:38 |
| supaman | RoyK: is there a debian directory and it contains a changelog file? | 11:22 |
| RoyK | supaman: there's a debian dir, but no changelog file, so I forged one and with a little trouble, it worked | 11:28 |
| supaman | great :-) | 11:28 |
| coreycb | jamespage: sahid: i'm going to sweep up the remaining rc's for stein. i don't think there are many. | 13:48 |
| PaulePanter | Hi. Installing ubuntu-server (bionic), I am only asked to configure the DNS server by the installer and not the rest of the network configuration (DHCP/static). | 13:53 |
| sahid | coreycb: ack, do you need some help? I can do some | 13:53 |
| PaulePanter | I then have to edit the netplan configuration manually in the live system. | 13:53 |
| coreycb | sahid: i think we're good, thanks. we can split up the final release when that comes around. | 13:54 |
| sahid | coreycb: ok sure we will do that :) | 13:54 |
| coreycb | sahid: james has smoke tests passing on the current proposed packages so we'll re-run that and we'll need to manually test dashboards | 13:55 |
| jamespage | coreycb: ta - just a few I think | 14:01 |

| sveinse | Trying to install latest ubuntu 18.04 LTS server on a VM and the installer crashes when I'm trying to set manual ipv4 address, starting the installer all over again :( | 23:24 |
| sarnold | that sounds vaguely familiar | 23:25 |
| tomreyn | sveinse: probably bug 1816954 | 23:32 |
| ubottu | bug 1816954 in subiquity (Ubuntu) "Unable to show Info nor Set static IP during install" [Undecided,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1816954 | 23:32 |
| Maxel | hi, I ran into a problem I thought I solved but apparently did not. My boot partition is only 500mb and it has 0 bytes free. I was trying to do an upgrade and now I'm stuck | 23:46 |
| Maxel | I see some guides saying I can boot from a different disc of linux and try to repartition the disk, but wanted to see if anyone thinks that's a terrible idea on here before I accidentally break something | 23:46 |
| mwhudson | Maxel: are you booted? | 23:47 |
| sveinse | Maxel: It happened to me all the time on my old server. You probably have older kenels taking up all the space. uninstall them first, and then you can install the upgrade | 23:47 |
| sarnold | I wouldn't go down that route, no.. | 23:47 |
| Maxel | yeah, it's a vm I have | 23:47 |
| mwhudson | you should be able to remove some kernels | 23:47 |
| Maxel | running on esxi | 23:47 |
| sarnold | I'd just truncate some kernels with "> /boot/vmlinuz-...." -- pick old ones | 23:47 |
| sarnold | then dpkg --purge that old version | 23:47 |
| Maxel | I would like to solve the tiny boot partition eventually, but I need to free up some space first | 23:47 |
| mwhudson | what does dpkg -l linux-image-*-generic | grep ^ii show? | 23:48 |
| Maxel | remind me what the util to pipe output to pastebin is? | 23:48 |
| mwhudson | pastebinit | 23:48 |
| Maxel | http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/VWc835NQ4F/ | 23:49 |
| mwhudson | yes ok you probably don't need all of those :) | 23:49 |
| sarnold | try to keep the newest one or two, and whatever kernel you're running now | 23:50 |
| Maxel | I think I messed this up once though, what's the safe way to remove these? I just deleted the files and got myself in trouble | 23:50 |
| mwhudson | apt remove linux-image-4.4.0-134-generic | 23:50 |
| mwhudson | (for example) | 23:50 |
| mwhudson | like sarnold says probably best not to remove the kernel you are actually running | 23:51 |
| sarnold | truncate one file with > /boot/vmlinuz-whatever ... to free up storage; then you can dpkg --purge the package that owned the file | 23:51 |
| Maxel | just fill the file with 0 bytes you mean? | 23:51 |
| mwhudson | then upgrade to bionic where this kind of stuff doesn't pile up in the same way :) | 23:51 |
| mwhudson | (not necessarily helpful advice i realize) | 23:52 |
| mwhudson | Maxel: yes | 23:52 |
| mwhudson | well not fill the file | 23:52 |
| Maxel | is that 18.04? cause that's what I was trying to actually do here | 23:52 |
| mwhudson | replace the file with a 0 byte file | 23:52 |
| mwhudson | Maxel: yes | 23:52 |
| Maxel | ls -l | 23:52 |
| Maxel | whoopsies | 23:52 |
| Maxel | just cause I'm extra worried, so can I just do: echo "" > vmlinuz-4.4.0-128-generic | 23:53 |
| sarnold | maybe; I've always used > filename to truncate files | 23:55 |
| sarnold | using echo in that fashion may try to make a new directory entry and thus fail to allocate memory | 23:55 |
| Maxel | no need to echo anything, just lead with the > | 23:55 |
| sarnold | right | 23:55 |
| Maxel | trying to purge the package now: dpkg: warning: ignoring request to remove vmlinuz-4.4.0-128-generic which isn't installed | 23:58 |
