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

[16:45] <Guest42> How do I luks encrypt during install?
[16:47] <mybalzitch> its an option during the partitioning stage
[16:56] <Guest42> You have the syntax, I haven't been able to dig it up anywhere?
[16:58] <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
[17:11] <Guest42> Is it possible with cloud-init?
[17:15] <TJ-> aren't the cloud-image either rootfs (containers) or pre-built disk images (bootable as VM guests)
[17:25] <Guest42> Possibly....if so, they start out as a very tiny one, then allow you to install more packages. Partitioning is a pain though.
[17:30] <Guest42> can the regular installer be automated?
[21:06] <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
[21:08] <Guest42> you need to make a volume called cidata, and put user-data and meta-data onto that volume.
[21:09] <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 :'(
[21:10] <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?
[21:11] <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
[21:12] <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......
[21:13] <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
[21:14] <Guest42> and that's the cli/text gui, not the graphical one right?
[21:15] <Guest92123123>  /var/log/installer/autoinstall-user-data
[21:15] <Guest92123123> yes, clit/text
[21:19] <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
[21:22] <Guest42> idk about 18, i'm dinking around with 20
[21:23] <Guest92123123> i might just end up respinning the iso 
=== pvdp2 is now known as pvdp
[21:30] <Guest42> I have the xorriso command for that.
[21:30] <Guest42> I just tried looking in /var/log/installer, no user-data
[21:32] <Guest92123123> hm, maybe it's only for the interactive instance
[21:32] <Guest42> That's what I did.
[21:33] <Guest42> Plain old live-server, interactive, made choices, watching it install. there is stuff in /var/log/installer, just not autoinstall-user-data
[21:34] <Guest42> it did eventually show up.....
[21:35] <tomreyn> Guest92123123: is this 18.04.0 or a current one?
[21:35] <Guest92123123> 18.04
[21:36] <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
[21:37] <tomreyn> okay thats the latest
[21:38] <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
[21:44] <Guest92123123> it'd be better if i could do it without modifying the iso but thanks, i'll try that when i give up
[21:47] <Guest42> meh, I eventually wanted them merged into a single iso ....
[21:52] <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 =?
=== Guest921231239 is now known as Guest92123123
[22:18] <Guest92123123> at this point i'm just assuming cloud-init is disabled to force the net update or something to that effect
[22:24] <Guest42> I dunno, my interactive installer won't finish now......sigh, so much tech, so little function
[22:38] <Guest42> cloud-init is kinda crap
[22:43] <Guest92123123> preseed isn't much better, unless you can teach me how to skip the last dialogs
