| Kyoku | is the ubuntu core image for IoT fully encrypted? | 00:34 |
|---|---|---|
| * tomreyn pointed Kyoku to #snappy in #ubuntu-arm (CP) | 00:43 | |
| mybalzitch | since you can install from it, I doubt it | 00:43 |
| genii | If it was, the passphrase/key would be identical on every machine it got installed to, defeating the purpose of having encryption | 00:44 |
| Kyoku | trying to find a guide to fully encrypt an ubuntu core image for Pi4 but not much luck, the general ones for ubuntu don't list core as a valid option | 00:46 |
| Kyoku | unless docs are just out of date | 00:47 |
| tomreyn | ubuntu desktop/server on the one hand and core on the other are really rather different systems, at least at this time. | 00:47 |
| tomreyn | see also https://ubuntu.com/core -> "Add-ons to SMART START" -> "Full Disk Encryption" | 00:48 |
| Kyoku | oh great, a $30,000 plugin just to get encryption | 00:53 |
| Kyoku | no thanks | 00:53 |
| lordievader | Good morning | 07:14 |
| cpaelzer | hiho lordievader | 07:15 |
| cpaelzer | how are you today? | 07:15 |
| lordievader | Hey cpaelzer, doing good here. How are you? | 07:15 |
| cpaelzer | good while fighting the world (of bugs) | 07:15 |
| lordievader | As regular ;) | 07:19 |
| coreycb | jamespage: sahid: I updated the dh-python patch in ca-patches. it switches python2-* to python-* binaries. something to keep an eye on if we get any odd behavior in that area. it should fix up the current sphinx backport failure. | 14:54 |
| jamespage | coreycb: great thanks for the headsup | 14:55 |
| sahid | coreycb: ack thanks | 14:57 |
| Olof_szary | hello, I am trying to install ubuntu server. The installer crashed in probert/storage.py on line 169. fdisk -l seems to see all the drives correctly | 20:54 |
| tomreyn | which version of ubuntu server is this, can you tell by the .iso name? | 20:55 |
| Olof_szary | is there any way to tell if from inside the boot system? | 20:56 |
| Olof_szary | 4.15.0-55-generic kernel, #60 Ubuntu | 20:57 |
| ChmEarl | bionic | 20:57 |
| Olof_szary | yes | 20:58 |
| ChmEarl | Eoan 19.10 has kernel-5.3+ | 20:58 |
| Olof_szary | oh, I thought you meant the numeric number. It is bionic | 20:58 |
| tomreyn | bionic is now at linux-image-4.15.0-74-generic - so this *may* be 18.04.3 | 20:59 |
| ChmEarl | its easy to tell from kernel version what release | 20:59 |
| tomreyn | so which is it? | 20:59 |
| Olof_szary | bionic. (as seen from /etc/apt ) | 20:59 |
| Olof_szary | seems from Jul 2019 | 21:00 |
| tomreyn | that'd be 18.04.3 indeed | 21:00 |
| tomreyn | now, is your goal identifying the root cause or getting the installation working? | 21:00 |
| ChmEarl | Olof_szary, might want to write zeros to the MBR of your install drive | 21:01 |
| Olof_szary | the ultimate goal is to have ubuntu server running on that machine | 21:02 |
| tomreyn | https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/probert/issues/77 https://bugs.launchpad.net/subiquity/+bug/1858447 | 21:02 |
| ubottu | Launchpad bug 1858447 in subiquity "subiquity calls probert's Storage.probe with incorrectly typed probe_types" [Undecided,New] | 21:02 |
| Olof_szary | I believe the best bet is to get a newer version and try again. but also: since I am here in server room and don't want to go back to office to redownliad it, i was wondering if it's well know bug | 21:03 |
| Olof_szary | so, it was reported | 21:03 |
| tomreyn | do you have similar hardware (HW RAID, dell poweredge server) there? | 21:04 |
| Olof_szary | yes | 21:04 |
| tomreyn | it's a rather young report and there's no indication that it's been fixed yet so the workaround i had in mind, updating subiquity, may not help. | 21:05 |
| tomreyn | you could still try though ("snap refresh subiquity" from another tty) | 21:06 |
| Odd_Bloke | Some of the comments in that report suggest that it has been fixed already, so a refresh might do it. | 21:06 |
| tomreyn | Olof_szary: either way, please add what you can to qualify this report further, since it could use more info. | 21:06 |
| Olof_szary | what is interesting is that my collegue was able to install ubuntu desktop version here. | 21:06 |
| tomreyn | they use different installers, so it's not too surprising | 21:07 |
| Olof_szary | but ubuntu server fais | 21:07 |
| Olof_szary | ok | 21:07 |
| tomreyn | Odd_Bloke: right i missed comment 2 | 21:08 |
| tomreyn | https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/subiquity/commit/8097ad62bf2072729bdee44c6d0e7e73e7b10429 | 21:09 |
| Olof_szary | is gpm missing in ubuntu server? | 21:09 |
| Odd_Bloke | That does look like it would have fixed it. | 21:09 |
| tomreyn | a server with a mouse? | 21:10 |
| Odd_Bloke | Olof_szary: GPM? (There is a package named gpm.) | 21:10 |
| Olof_szary | ok, it was not in the default installer, but apt-get update got the package | 21:11 |
| Olof_szary | https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/subiquity/commit/8097ad62bf2072729bdee44c6d0e7e73e7b10429 | 21:11 |
| Olof_szary | sorry | 21:11 |
| Olof_szary | using elinks + gpm combo to follow the links | 21:11 |
| Olof_szary | ok, how to restart the installer? | 21:12 |
| tomreyn | you don't strictly need to view those web sites. either refreshing the snap helps or not | 21:12 |
| Olof_szary | error: requested a non-existing branch on latest/stable for snap "subiquity": ubuntu-18.04.3 | 21:14 |
| Olof_szary | on: sudo snap refresh subiquity | 21:14 |
| tomreyn | oh interesting, it vanished off the snap store | 21:16 |
| Olof_szary | it seems that the bug in python is with using list instead of dictionary. | 21:18 |
| Olof_szary | but the file is not editable, since it is there: /dev/loop6 51M 51M 0 100% /snap/subiquity/1093 | 21:19 |
| Olof_szary | So, best way to re-download the installer then, isn't it? | 21:22 |
| tomreyn | https://github.com/CanonicalLtd/subiquity discusses how to build your own installer | 21:22 |
| tomreyn | you could also try a daily image if there still are any, but those can be broken | 21:23 |
| tomreyn | or try your luck again here suring UK business hours | 21:23 |
| tomreyn | *during | 21:23 |
| Olof_szary | well, thanks | 21:24 |
| tomreyn | that would have been http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-server/bionic/daily-live/current/ | 21:28 |
