locsmif | Hi all. Does one need multipathd on an Ubuntu server VM if one doesn't use it? (No configs, no SAN, etc.) | 15:07 |

Guest42 | How do I luks encrypt during install? | 16:45 |
mybalzitch | its an option during the partitioning stage | 16:47 |
Guest42 | You have the syntax, I haven't been able to dig it up anywhere? | 16:56 |
TJ- | Guest42: it might help if you tell us which release and which installer you're using | 16:58 |
Guest42 | 20.04.2 cloud-init | 16:58 |
Guest42 | Is it possible with cloud-init? | 17:11 |
TJ- | aren't the cloud-image either rootfs (containers) or pre-built disk images (bootable as VM guests) | 17:15 |
Guest42 | Possibly....if so, they start out as a very tiny one, then allow you to install more packages. Partitioning is a pain though. | 17:25 |
Guest42 | can the regular installer be automated? | 17:30 |
Guest92123123 | hey. can anyone help me with ubuntu 18 & autoinstall? I'm trying to use the new installer but for whatever reason cloud-init is disabled and it never pulls the autoinstall config | 21:06 |
Guest42 | you need to make a volume called cidata, and put user-data and meta-data onto that volume. | 21:08 |
Guest92123123 | i was using another volume (cdrom called cidata) with the old installer, but it wouldn't automount | 21:09 |
Guest92123123 | kind of breaks the auto part of the install :'( | 21:09 |
Guest42 | If the stuff in your user-data is busted, cloud-init silently ignores it. | 21:10 |
Guest92123123 | i don't think it is. if i run cloud-init manually it doesn't complain | 21:10 |
Guest42 | which iso are you using? | 21:10 |
Guest92123123 | 18.04 live server | 21:11 |
Guest42 | should work. Is it just skipping to the interactive installer? | 21:11 |
Guest92123123 | i was using regular server before, but couldn't get through the gateway/nameserver dialogs when trying an offline install | 21:11 |
Guest92123123 | yep | 21:11 |
Guest42 | doesn't like your user-data | 21:11 |
Guest42 | go simpler. | 21:12 |
Guest92123123 | huh. i copied it from the auto-generated one through the interactive installer | 21:12 |
Guest42 | how did you get that? I didn't know it generated a config...... | 21:12 |
Guest92123123 | yeah, not exactly splattered all over the docs. it's in /var/log/installer i think. | 21:13 |
Guest92123123 | worst part is i found that out when i managed to get ubuntu 20 installing. no idea what's up with 18 | 21:13 |
Guest42 | and that's the cli/text gui, not the graphical one right? | 21:14 |
Guest92123123 | /var/log/installer/autoinstall-user-data | 21:15 |
Guest92123123 | yes, clit/text | 21:15 |
Guest92123123 | "Using seeded cache data from http://..." i'm assuming it's correct due to that. when i check /var/lib/cloud/instance/cloud-config.txt it matches the user-data | 21:19 |
Guest42 | idk about 18, i'm dinking around with 20 | 21:22 |
Guest92123123 | i might just end up respinning the iso | 21:23 |

Guest42 | I have the xorriso command for that. | 21:30 |
Guest42 | I just tried looking in /var/log/installer, no user-data | 21:30 |
Guest92123123 | hm, maybe it's only for the interactive instance | 21:32 |
Guest42 | That's what I did. | 21:32 |
Guest42 | Plain old live-server, interactive, made choices, watching it install. there is stuff in /var/log/installer, just not autoinstall-user-data | 21:33 |
Guest42 | it did eventually show up..... | 21:34 |
tomreyn | Guest92123123: is this 18.04.0 or a current one? | 21:35 |
Guest92123123 | 18.04 | 21:35 |
tomreyn | that doesn't answer my question ;) | 21:36 |
Guest92123123 | ubuntu-18.04.5-live-server-amd64.iso, sha256:3756b3201007a88da35ee0957fbe6666c495fb3d8ef2e851ed2bd1115dc36446 | 21:36 |
Guest92123123 | to be precise :P | 21:36 |
tomreyn | okay thats the latest | 21:37 |
Guest42 | put user-data and meta-data in a folder called seed, then this xorriso cmd will work xorriso -indev $ISO \ | 21:38 |
Guest42 | -boot_image any replay \ | 21:38 |
Guest42 | -map seed / \ | 21:38 |
Guest42 | -volid "cidata" \ | 21:38 |
Guest42 | -outdev seed.iso | 21:38 |
Guest92123123 | it'd be better if i could do it without modifying the iso but thanks, i'll try that when i give up | 21:44 |
Guest42 | meh, I eventually wanted them merged into a single iso .... | 21:47 |
Guest92123123 | ok, i think quotes might be why. the command line cuts off at "ds=nocloud" in the one cloud init log i found | 21:52 |
Guest92123123 | anyone know off the top of their head whether i quote the entire thing or just after the =? | 21:52 |
=== Guest921231239 is now known as Guest92123123 | ||
Guest92123123 | at this point i'm just assuming cloud-init is disabled to force the net update or something to that effect | 22:18 |
Guest42 | I dunno, my interactive installer won't finish now......sigh, so much tech, so little function | 22:24 |
Guest42 | cloud-init is kinda crap | 22:38 |
Guest92123123 | preseed isn't much better, unless you can teach me how to skip the last dialogs | 22:43 |
