ratpatscrossposting from #ubuntu --- should have posted here first!22:43
ratpatshiya!  Trying to install ubuntu lunar beta from the iso.  I have a preexisting LVM I'd like to use.  I've enabled it with vgchange -a y and it's clearly there and mountable, but the manual partitioner in the graphical installer can't see it, so I can't choose it to install onto.22:43
ratpatsAm I missing something obvious, or is this not/no longer supported?22:43
ratpatsI do see an lvm option under 'advanced' in the installer, but only if I'm erasing the disk to do a new install.22:43
guivercratpats, i can't help, but which ISO are you using?  you've not said (desktop? desktop-alterante? server?)22:51
ratpatsdesktop!  22:51
ratpatsI just realized that lunar has a new flutter-based installer!  I'm installing ubiquity just to see if lvm support is working in that.22:52
guivercratpats, the desktop has an alterante ISO which uses ubiquity... why I mentioned two ISOs for desktop22:53
ratpatsaha.  Yes, it's not the alternate one.  It's ubuntu-23.04-beta-desktop-amd64.iso22:53
ratpatsI'm just doing apt install ubiquity (in the installer boot environment) just because I'm behind a slow internet connection so downloading the whole iso again will take a while!22:54
ratpatsbut yeah.  I'll update this channel when I know if this is something that works in ubiquity but not the new installer.22:55
guivercyou can use zsync to only download differences in an ISO, not the whole ISO.22:55
ratpatsoo, good point22:55
ratpatsUpdate: Ubiquity sees a preexisting LVM volume.  The new installer *does not*.22:59
ratpatsshould this be reported as a bug, or is it expected behavior?22:59
guivercratpats, if in doubt I'd always file a bug... if it's expected behavior it will be reported as such & bug closed; but you'll get your answer.  Please report it23:14
JanCanything that is a regression is a bug23:14
JanCeven if it might be too late to fix it for 23.04 maybe...?23:18
ratpatsI've filed https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-desktop-installer/+bug/2014977 !23:19
-ubottu:#ubuntu-next- Launchpad bug 2014977 in ubuntu-desktop-installer "Existing LVM volume group missing in new installer" [Undecided, New]23:19
guivercthank you ratpats , if you can find the ubiquity log for your install (that worked), uploading that assist the devs who work on it.  Thank you for helping make Ubuntu better.23:24
* guiverc hasn't looked at your bug report sorry; no time23:24
ratpatsthat's okay!  No rush, just wanted to update this channel for completeness!23:26
ratpatsguiverc: haven't run the install all the way through yet --- let me do that, then upload the log.23:27
ratpatsAnything from ubuntu-desktop-installer that might be worth attaching as well?23:28
* guiverc sorry can't think of anything, but I'm busy on other stuff & only noticing this on occasion with limited mental-cycles allocated to ubuntu stuff sorry23:30
ratpatsoh totally fine23:30
ratpatssorry for the noise!23:30
* guiverc thinks noise/reporting findings to channel, inc. bugs filed is good! so thank you..23:31
ratpatsthank you!23:31
