| ball | Why is lubuntu.org ? | 03:05 |
|---|---|---|
| guiverc | ball, it's not a Ubuntu or Lubuntu web site. It's not under Ubuntu/Lubuntu control; so I'd suggest not using it | 03:05 |
| guiverc | ball, if you want to use only official Ubuntu flavor sites; don't ask google/search engines, but go to ubuntu.com (ie. https://ubuntu.com/download/flavours) which will take you to official Ubuntu flavor sites | 03:06 |
| guiverc | you'll not all Ubuntu flavor sites are under Ubuntu ownership/control; we cannot control web sites that aren't ours | 03:07 |
| guiverc | FYI: opening that site on my browser gets a "badware risk warning"; and asks me if I want to continue or not (warning from ublock origin) | 03:08 |
| guiverc | s/you'll not/you'll note/ ^ | 03:10 |
| ball | It's a pity they're able to squat there. :-( | 03:10 |
| guiverc | ball they (original owner of lubuntu.org) were the original owner before Lubuntu owned a web site | 03:11 |
| ball | Is Lubuntu not a trademark? | 03:11 |
| guiverc | trademarks cost $s to legally pursue & if you win, they are told to remove/pull down the site, but costs are cannot be claimed... ie. trademark protection costs $s... | 03:12 |
| guiverc | Lubuntu is a non-profit that doesn't have $s to spend on legal... | 03:12 |
| ball | That's unfortunate. | 03:13 |
| guiverc | recal the groupon (I think) trying to steal GNOME trademark .... it required loads of donations in order to start that legal battle... (a few years back) | 03:13 |
| guiverc | s/recal/recall ^ | 03:13 |
| * ball waits patiently for the downloads | 03:14 | |
| ball | download* | 03:14 |
| guiverc | https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2014/11/gnome-open-source-project-fights-groupon-over-gnome-trademark/ etc... | 03:14 |
| ball | Is there a way to ask the installer not to create a swap partition? | 03:19 |
| guiverc | you've not said what release; but there is a drop down (swap/no-swap) for many install options | 03:19 |
| guiverc | other install options do not offer that drop down though | 03:20 |
| guiverc | the default varies on release (version of calamares somewhat), but if you already have swap that will generally be used | 03:20 |
| guiverc | you can see the 'drop down' for swap here - https://manual.lubuntu.me/stable/_images/partitioning.png | 03:21 |
| ball | Thanks | 03:25 |
| ball | Booting from it now. | 04:56 |
| ball | I like the installer! | 05:02 |

| darkblueb | hi all - installing jammy here on a "big" server box.. | 20:35 |
| darkblueb | physical media | 20:35 |
| darkblueb | .. and it completes.. using the GUI installer.. wondering about update-grub2 | 21:42 |
| darkblueb | I rebooted once so far, and the GRUB screen definitely does not know about the new OS yet | 21:42 |
| darkblueb | $update-grub2 run from the previous ubuntu OS now, sees the new system.. writes a dot-cfg to /boot/grub/ .. | 21:44 |
| darkblueb | since I booted once, some kind of master boot record must be found in the old way | 21:45 |
| darkblueb | let's try | 21:45 |
| darkblueb | .. and that works fine.. I suspect that if I unplugged every disk except the new one, it would be different.. but .. one challenge at a time | 21:50 |
| darkblueb | what is the stock GUI disk utility called ? the "gnome-disks" basically.. | 21:51 |
| darkblueb | ok - KDE Partition Manager it seems .. not very chatty here it seems | 22:08 |
| darkblueb | unsure if symlinking /home to another disk works OK, or if you have to choose that in the initialization steps | 22:16 |
| darkblueb | one new partition on the same disk added to /etc/fstab , and change the /etc/apt/sources.list only, to start | 22:17 |
| darkblueb | next, remove snapd completely | 22:20 |
| darkblueb | that appears to be -- bare, core20, firefox, gnome3, gtk-something, snap3 | 22:21 |
| darkblueb | I see firefox snapd touches most of the whole system.. and that there is some kind of app-armor like profile for it | 22:24 |
| darkblueb | aus mit Sie | 22:24 |
| darkblueb | documented, just in case.. done | 22:35 |
| darkblueb | next is QEmu .. I need to build and run VMs with this setup.. I have used VirtualBox for years for that.. however, qemu is native | 22:36 |
| darkblueb | I have no important reason to switch, in fact I had problems with qemu ten years ago.. much has been done since then | 22:36 |
| darkblueb | I believe our sysadmin uses LXC for containers, but I am not going that way .. | 22:37 |
| darkblueb | also Docker has a "rootless" mode now, I saw briefly .. interested in that | 22:37 |
| darkblueb | email says -- looking at the live-build debian package (which is also available in Ubuntu) | 22:55 |
| darkblueb | I see the live-build package does install parts of qemu | 23:05 |
