=== oer is now known as OerHeks
wonkotomreyn: ugh, grub-pc is my root dependency it looks like and it still just sits there and hangs.02:17
wonkotomreyn: even using stdbuf it still stops outputting anything at that same wait4() line with it cut off. I might just have to punt and do a re-install. I'm not making much progress here. :(02:21
wonkooh boy, I can't even import my zpool into this livecd. grrr.02:43
wonkohttps://paste.ubuntu.com/p/nzg79YM8th/03:39
wonkook, post reboot the zfs drives show up the way I expect them with names like ata-Hitachi_HUA723030ALA640_MK0371YVHKP6XA instead of that osprober stuff (whatever that is)03:56
wonkozpool import is going, but taking its time. Let's see what happens.03:56
wonkoIf I can get that mounted I'll just freshen the backups of /etc, /var and /home and just do a fresh install as painful as that is.03:56
wonkoBecause I'm not making any progress here03:56
wonkoThere we go, mounted03:58
wonkomuch relieved03:58
=== lotus|i5 is now known as lotuspsychje
tomreynwonko: looks like you did make progress in the end. congrats!13:03
wonkotomreyn: not really, no.14:19
wonkoIt's still stuck on grub-pc no matter what I do14:19
lotuspsychjewonko: hows your uefi settings?14:21
lotuspsychjehttps://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2019/09/yaru-light-theme-not-default-just-option14:38
wonkolotuspsychje: no idea. Anything in particular I should be looking at?14:43
lotuspsychjewonko: in your bios, you have uefi or legacy choice, secureboot/fastboot14:44
lotuspsychjewonko: in dmesg it might mention if its blocked or not aswell14:44
wonkoDo I want secureboot or fastboot enabled?14:46
tomreynprobably neither for best compatibility14:47
lotuspsychjeif set to uefi, some hardware can get influenced by it14:47
wonkoOk, I'll definitely doing uefi so I'll check those14:48
lotuspsychjewonko: are you singlebooting or dualbooting?14:48
tomreynwonko: so how are you installing now? fresh boot from the default 19.10 beta desktop iso, and it fails after installing during the grub installation step?14:48
tomreyns/fails/gets stuck/14:49
wonkotomreyn: I just started backing stuff up last night. I have started the installation yet.14:50
wonkolotuspsychje: single14:50
lotuspsychjeok14:50
wonko haven't started14:51
lotuspsychjewonko: if you got get a dmesg, would be useful14:53
wonkoYeah I can post that once I get to my computer14:55
lotuspsychjetnx14:55
tomreynoh so the latest installation was from this chroot still, ok.15:18
wonkotomreyn: yeah, I haven't started the fresh install yet and I'm willing to try different things to get the existing one going. I really don't want to reinstall.16:06
wonkolotuspsychje: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/JZTY949YTf/17:00
tomreynwonko: you have bios v3801 (released 07/25/2019) which is not listed at https://www.asus.com/us/Commercial-Servers-Workstations/Z10PED16_WS/HelpDesk_BIOS/ - do you have a different model, custom firmware?18:23
tomreynoh, that's indeed a different model https://www.asus.com/us/Commercial-Servers-Workstations/Z10PED16/HelpDesk_BIOS/18:26
tomreynanyways, i don't see why you'd not want to just reinstall, it's quick.18:28
wonkoInstalling is quick. Setting up all the crap again isn't. 😁18:33
wonkoMostly I'm just interested in what went wrong and how to fix it for others18:34
wonkoI'll reinstall tomorrow if we don't get this sorted18:35
tomreynata7.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x100)18:35
tomreynata7.00: ATA-8: Hitachi HUA723030ALA640, MKAOAA50, max UDMA/13318:36
tomreynlink speed was decreased to 3.0 Gbps on this port of your LSI (my sympathies!) controller.18:37
tomreynand then this disk encounters multiple errors18:37
wonko Yeah, that's one of my dying sata disks from the zpool18:37
tomreynoh, cant you just drop it then, or did you?18:38
wonkoThe cables I need for the dedicated server arrived so I'm ignoring that until I move off of that pool.18:39
wonkos/server/file server/18:39
wonkoThat's actually been doing that for a while now and I'm tempting fate.18:40
tomreynEDAC seems to be firmware (interrupt) controlled. be sure to check the MCE log, too.18:42
tomreynthough it may be running full with this disk if that's logged there, too18:42
tomreyni mean SEL, not MCE18:43
tomreyni.e.   ipmitool sel help   from linux18:44
wonkoI'll give that a look19:26
wonkoEDAC shouldn't be there cause of the issue though should it?19:28
tomreynno, EDAC is about ECC RAM.19:36
