OvenWerks | Anyone know what : does in a regular expession? (and how to just look for : ) | 05:55 |
---|---|---|
OvenWerks | doesn't matter, I found something that works | 06:12 |
OvenWerks | Eickmeyer[m]: new controls... again sigh. | 06:13 |
studiobot | <teward001> yo who wants to do a test for me | 18:41 |
studiobot | <teward001> with the ISOs from yesterday | 18:41 |
studiobot | <teward001> need y'all to test an EFI install | 18:41 |
studiobot | <teward001> because kpmcore+cala was failing hard | 18:41 |
wonko | Is it easy to install Ubuntu to a partition instead of a disk? I'm thinking for the next system a drive for my home dir and a smaller OS drive but big enough to hold several versions for testing. | 19:16 |
OvenWerks | wonko: just choose manual (I think it is) anyway it is normally the last option | 19:45 |
OvenWerks | It used to be "something else" ;) | 19:45 |
wonko | Does the installer make reasonable grub entries so I'll know which is which? | 20:42 |
OvenWerks | wonko: that is not the installer but grub itself... the entries are not bad but could be better. | 21:09 |
OvenWerks | wonko: the grub entries get created every time update-grub is run so every time the kernel is updated. | 21:10 |
wonko | I might have to script something to clean those up | 21:15 |
OvenWerks | The script that creates the menu is in: /etc/grub.d/ It will be either 09_lowlatency or 10_linux depending on which is +x | 21:20 |
OvenWerks | you can do like we did, copy one of the two to 08_local and as the first step set -x on the other two then modify the menu creation | 21:21 |
OvenWerks | (that is we copied 10_linux to 09_lowlatency and then fixed that. | 21:22 |
OvenWerks | try it as is first though... it may be ok | 21:23 |
wonko | Yeah, I'll setup a VM later to play with. The idea is I want a stable version that I can always boot into to be able to work and 2-3 others of the next release or a daily or something | 21:26 |
