tewardOerHeks: yes, it can, but the two networks save for a few bits and pieces need to be split.  Hence ACLs and VPNs.  Load balancing isn't at play since they aren't equal speed.00:12
OerHeksi need more experience with that, multiple lines, now i just have a backup via wifi neighbour, and he with mine00:13
lordievaderGood morning06:18
geodb27People : hi ! I'm still trying to build an unattended install of ubuntu-18.04-server.iso. The only things I haven't been abble to preseed until now are the 3/4 first questions : language select at boot, language select on installer startup and keyboard layout. I've filled in the d-i options in the ubuntu-server.seed, but the installer proudly ignore them all. What am I doing wrong ?09:08
geodb27https://pastebin.com/FDSEgGdG Here are the modifications I did in both ubuntu-server.seed and grub.cfg (before rebuilding the full iso).09:15

blinkizHello. How do I install Ubuntu 18.04 server without needing to configure network configuration? I do not seem to be able to pass network connections dialog13:16
blinkizNevermind. I got it to work now13:20
adityahi people, I am facing a strange issue I am unable to run apt-get update or anything on my server, I am getting an error sudo: unable to resolve host duggals: Resource temporarily unavailable16:40
adityasomething has severely hit my networking and I am unable to change any file in /etc/ as well as per the help on various help site16:40
adityaI am not a network admin but I am running a ubuntu server at home for media server but it seems everything has just crashed can any one please help me since I have been trying to resolve this for hours now more like a day now16:41
ahasenackaditya: are you saying that when you run sudo, even with that error message, you don't become root?16:49
bryceaditya anything interesting when you run dmesg?16:50
adityaahasenack: and bryce: The problem it seems that my machine was reset with power and now the system has booted without r/w access17:03
ahasenackwhat fs is it?17:04
adityaahasenack: what is FS?17:05
ahasenackfilesystem, I mean17:05
adityahow do I find out, I think its ext417:06
ahasenackoutput of mount17:06
adityahttps://pastebin.com/Wxta4xYZ17:07
ahasenackline 8, ext4, and it's read-only17:08
ahasenackdmesg will probably give more details as to what happened, if it's a hardware issue for example17:09
adityaI think its caused by power outage and now I cannot mount it on rw17:09
ahasenackbut you will have to run a disk check17:09
adityahttps://pastebin.com/j3dXyAgY17:10
adityaahasenack: The diskcheck can only be run with a live USB of ubuntu correct?17:11
adityabtw the above paste was for dmesg17:11
ahasenackto actually fix it, yes. It can also happen during boot, before / is mounted17:12
adityais it possible to do it without a live USB?17:12
ahasenack[    6.333609] EXT4-fs (sda2): Couldn't remount RDWR because of unprocessed orphan inode list.  Please umount/remount instead17:12
ahasenacksince it's /, I fear not17:13
ahasenackmaybe a reboot fixes it, since it will be an umount followed by a mount17:13
ahasenackbut it's your data17:14
ahasenackdepends how critical all of this is17:14
adityaso is it possible to have a permanent solution like have ubuntu-server on 2 HDD and then if one fails then load ubuntu from another one and then run fsck17:14
ahasenackjust for the case of an fsck? Sounds overkill17:14
ahasenackmuch handier to have a pendrive around17:14
adityaok17:15
ahasenackthat being said, raid1 is definitely a good thing to have for a server, if you can afford it17:15
adityaso basically whenever there is a power outage i should be ready with a pendrive17:15
ahasenackno, I think this was just bad luck17:15
adityawell it has happened to me now 2nd time in that many months so it can't be bad luck17:16
bryceif this was caused by a power interruption, a ups with triggered safe shutdown might be an option.17:16
adityawell the problem with UPS is that they are hardly reliable esp in India where we get UPSes without USB to tell the OS that the battery is about to die17:17
bryceaditya, yeah I found USP's to be more annoyance than value for my home server, but fortunately I have few power interruptions17:29
jdr 17:32
tomreynaditya: in my opinion, always having a way of booting the same (or at least a similar) ubuntu release from a different storage location than the main installation is actually mandatory.17:43
tomreynthere are a lot of options, though, it doesn't need to be a usb stick, can be a pxe boot instead, or just a separate internal storage (but keeping this upgraded may be more work than the pxe, especially if you have multiple servers).17:45
