crokedgrind59Hi19:17
crokedgrind59I am trying to install Ubuntu Desktop (20.04) using kickstart, but it is not easy and I think that my problem is ubiquity19:18
crokedgrind59someone on this room would have an experience or documentation for this?19:18
crokedgrind59thank you :)19:18
CarlFKcrokedgrind59:  this isn't what you are asking for, but it is easy and maybe close19:21
CarlFKhttps://debconf-video-team.pages.debian.net/ansible/usb_install/usb_quick_start.html19:21
crokedgrind59hi CarlFK, thank you very much for answering me. I will take a look to this link :)19:21
CarlFKit should take you about 20 min to grind through that process19:23
CarlFKthen we can muddle about to make it do what you want19:23
crokedgrind59that looks nice, I have to test to see if I could customised more than the only few questions I can see on the example19:24
crokedgrind59I would like, por exemple, be able to luks + lvm + install or remove stuff19:25
CarlFKdo it as is first - it doesn't get much traffic, so it may have broken19:26
CarlFKit has support for ubuntu: https://salsa.debian.org/debconf-video-team/ansible/-/blob/master/usbinst/mk_usb_installer.sh#L6219:28
CarlFKbut I haven't touched that in a while.  but I have some time to work with you and get fix if needed19:29
crokedgrind59ok, I am following the little how-to and see what happens19:30
crokedgrind59maybe I am wrong, but it seems to download debian 10.3.0 netinstall19:30
crokedgrind59I would need, in fact, ubuntu 20.0419:31
crokedgrind59distro: (debian) debian or ubuntu19:32
crokedgrind59ok19:32
CarlFKright - do the debian video mixer thing first.19:34
crokedgrind59sorry, I didn't understand19:36
crokedgrind59what is the debian video mixer? You mean launch the generation of a debian iso first?19:36
CarlFKyou will see when you are done ;)19:44
CarlFKit will be much easier to talk and understand if you have the results first19:45
crokedgrind59ok19:49
crokedgrind59I am modifying the script to adapt to ubuntu, but you are right19:49
crokedgrind59I will try,first, using the script for a debian iso :)19:50
CarlFKthank you19:50
crokedgrind59thank you!19:50
CarlFKI am sure the ubuntu one will break19:50

CarlFKNot ModifiedFile19:56
crokedgrind59*omitting19:56
CarlFKlocal cache19:56
crokedgrind59ah, ok19:56
CarlFKdid you ^c it the first time maybe?19:57
crokedgrind59the sha256sum is not the same19:57
crokedgrind59I have removed the iso file, and I am trying to download it again19:58
crokedgrind59you are right19:58
crokedgrind59the first time, I ctrl+c .. sorry19:58
crokedgrind59my bad19:58
crockedgrind59hi again20:06
crockedgrind59dcfldd:/dev/sdc: No medium found20:07
CarlFKun/plug in your usb stick, pastebin dmesg20:08
CarlFKhttps://paste.ubuntu.com20:08
CarlFKoh - if you "eject" the usb stick, that happens20:12
CarlFKyou need to sudo umount20:12
crockedgrind59"you need to sudo umount"20:13
crockedgrind59I did umount because the procedure asked to do so20:13
crockedgrind59it is mounted:20:13

CarlFKits not great to paste more than 2 or 3 lines -  sometimes bot's will kick you, and in some #chaneles it is considered rude.  (this #chan is kinda ok given it is not spozed to be used any more20:15
crockedgrind59you are right, sorry20:15
crockedgrind59so many years (more than twenty) that I do not use IRC :)20:16
crockedgrind59I will use pastebin20:16
CarlFKalso - + zcat cache... is the last line I see.  "is mounted" is not what should be the case at that place, so ... paste more I hope20:16
crockedgrind59https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/4g9GVSC3gP/20:17
crockedgrind59it seems to run smooth, now20:17
crockedgrind59I need to go now, thank you very much for this clue!20:18
crockedgrind59I will try it and will come back20:18
CarlFKsee ya20:19
crockedgrind59thank you a lot20:19
crockedgrind59it is very kind of you to help :)20:20
CarlFKim booting a box on the usb stick now, so next time you try this part should be working20:20
crockedgrind59Please boot the target machine from the USB stick now.20:20
crockedgrind59last line20:21
crockedgrind59so, If I well understood20:21
crockedgrind59on the file voctest.cfg I will add the tokens and values I need for my iso to be installed?20:22
crockedgrind59there is a way to save it on a .iso file?20:22
CarlFKwe don't make an .iso, because building on top of a minimal install is much easier20:23
crockedgrind59ok, I understand20:24
crockedgrind59I will try to create an iso from the usb20:24
crockedgrind59as, for test, is nicer to use Virtualbox, por example20:24
CarlFKno no no...20:25
crockedgrind59ah, ok20:25
crockedgrind59it won't work?20:25
CarlFKyou can do whatever you want.20:25
CarlFKbut I don't recomend trying to make an iso20:25
crockedgrind59ok20:25
CarlFKget though these simple steps first.20:25
crockedgrind59ok20:26
crockedgrind59anyway, very nice your help20:26
CarlFKsure thing20:26
crockedgrind59I keep working on it tomorrow and give you a feedback :)20:26
CarlFKsure thing - try not to get distracted with 'good ideas' ;)20:27
