| znf | the Ubuntu Server 22.04 installer is just... terrible | 00:47 |
|---|---|---|
| znf | The partitioning is... terrible | 00:47 |
| znf | I have 6 disks, I want to slap 1 x 500MB for EFI and 1 x 100GB for a md0 | 00:48 |
| znf | the installer won't let me add multiple EFIs | 00:48 |
| blahdeblah | Yeah - the old Debian installer was a lot easier for partitioning. But I managed to get there eventually on the install I just did. (Didn't need EFI parts, though, because it was an older server.) | 00:52 |
| sarnold | heh, are you using my old laptop too? :) | 00:52 |
| sarnold | (I think that machine *can* do EFI, but I picked CSM back then Just Because) | 00:53 |
| znf | I partitioned manually | 00:57 |
| znf | I can't make it use the ESP partition | 00:57 |
| znf | dear god | 00:57 |
| blahdeblah | sarnold: No, I'm using your old HP Microserver Gen8, which was a sweet little box, and I wish they still made good servers like them. :-) | 00:57 |
| znf | https://i.imgur.com/blH5Wpt.png | 00:58 |
| sarnold | blahdeblah: ahh! yeah I keep hearing good things about those | 00:58 |
| sarnold | znf: once it's installed, probably dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc or whatever it is will let you select all the EFIs you want to use | 00:58 |
| blahdeblah | They took away a lot of cool things in the Gen10 to make them more enterprise so they could charge more money, which turned me off. I just use SFF desktops for my home servers now. | 00:59 |
| znf | except: https://i.imgur.com/6JPYkOh.png | 00:59 |
| znf | :) | 00:59 |
| sarnold | argh :( | 00:59 |
| sarnold | znf: lol | 00:59 |
| sarnold | znf: oh man | 00:59 |
| sarnold | znf: I think in the upper right corner there's a menu entry to file a bug report? it's been years since I've seen it.. | 01:00 |
| sarnold | znf: if it feels like you ought to be able to proceed but can't, that's probably worth a report | 01:00 |
| znf | I'm assuming it doesn't allow me to proceeed because I don't have a mounted EFI partition | 01:00 |
| znf | but I can't tell how to use it | 01:01 |
| znf | like nobody ever fucking tested this | 01:02 |
| znf | do they just test this crap installer on "cloud" servers with 2 disks and call it a day | 01:02 |
| znf | or wtf | 01:02 |
| znf | can't even delete the partition https://i.imgur.com/piyCocZ.png | 01:03 |
| znf | this is hilarious | 01:03 |
| znf | OOOH! | 01:04 |
| znf | I have to edit every disk | 01:04 |
| znf | and tell it to "use as boot device" and then "add as another boot device" | 01:04 |
| znf | And I end up with this: https://i.imgur.com/PdlfuLH.png | 01:05 |
| znf | now let's see if it actually uses it as a "backup esp" and mirrors the contents | 01:06 |
| znf | https://i.imgur.com/vxqA0OR.png | 01:10 |
| znf | and it's taking 5+ minutes to... format 100GB? wtf | 01:10 |
| sarnold | hmm, at 100 MB/s to usual hard drives, I think I'd expect around 17 minutes | 01:12 |
| znf | they're 12G SAS drives, SSD | 01:12 |
| znf | actually SAS, not SATA | 01:12 |
| znf | https://i.imgur.com/QcKjBrv.png | 01:13 |
| znf | is this thing actually waiting for the resync | 01:13 |
| znf | wtf | 01:13 |
| znf | no idae why it's 100MB/sec | 01:14 |
| znf | oh, it failed the install | 01:49 |
| znf | https://i.imgur.com/WizjI2n.png | 01:50 |
| sarnold | \o/ | 01:50 |
| blahdeblah | ;-( | 01:50 |
| sarnold | it's a bit vague about what actually failed :( | 01:51 |
| znf | yup | 01:51 |
| znf | and it won't reboot lol | 01:52 |

| derjanni | I am currently running an Intel Atom-box (x86_64) in my basement and constantly look for possible arm64 replacements. Has anyone seen any small arm64 U1 boxes that work with Ubuntu Server for arm64? | 11:47 |
| derjanni | sry, meant to say 1U rack mount | 11:48 |
| blahdeblah | I ran across some of those when I was doing a few web searches for gear, but I can't remember who made them. Maybe Supermicro? | 11:53 |
| derjanni | The one I currently have is a supermicro, but couldn't find any arm64 boxes from them. | 11:54 |
| derjanni | I'll probably stick to the box I currently have. | 11:58 |
| dannf | derjanni: you might try gigabyte as well if you're looking for whitebox. you can check the certification site to see if the soc has been certified | 12:44 |
| derjanni | dannf: awesome thanks | 12:44 |
| patdk-lap | gigabyte just makings huge arm servers | 13:54 |
| patdk-lap | the only small arm servers (under 200cores) I know of is by solid-run | 13:54 |
| smoser | paride: https://code.launchpad.net/~smoser/ubuntu/+source/sbuild-launchpad-chroot/+git/sbuild-launchpad-chroot/+merge/431224 | 15:36 |
| smoser | i pushed your suggested changes... now just curious on next steps. | 15:37 |
| smoser | a.) merge into master (~motu/ubuntu/+source/sbuild-launchpad-chroot:master) . | 15:37 |
| smoser | I just do that, right? I push to there ? | 15:37 |
| smoser | b.) then i upload ? I guess I should make a 'release' commit message before pushing, and then I just upload to lunar ? | 15:39 |
| paride | smoser, yes I'd say so. What I'd do is: (1) merge to master (2) make "release version 0.20" pointing lunar in d/changelog (3) upload, wait for "Accepted" email (4) `git tag --signed 0.20` and push | 15:48 |
| paride | make "release version 0.20" *commit* pointing lunar .. | 15:49 |
| smoser | ok. doing '1' and 2 now | 15:49 |
| paride | I prefer to wait for the Accepted mail before pushing the release commit just in case the upload gets rejected for any reason | 15:50 |
| paride | smoser, as we're speaking of that package, fyi I just filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sbuild-launchpad-chroot/+bug/1996205 | 15:57 |
| -ubottu:#ubuntu-server- Launchpad bug 1996205 in sbuild-launchpad-chroot (Ubuntu) "-proposed schroot not really using -proposed in >= Lunar" [Undecided, New] | 15:57 | |
| smoser | did '3'. | 16:00 |
| smoser | paride: do you know how i make lintian aware of https://www.mit.edu/afs.new/sipb/project/debathena/lintian/www/tags/bad-distribution-in-changes-file.html | 16:06 |
| smoser | i'd have hoped it would reasd distro-info-data, but that has been updated. | 16:06 |
