[01:42] <dbungert> OutOfService: in the storage section of autoinstall, you can specify a `match` parameter to match on model/path/serial/ssd/largest/smallest https://ubuntu.com/server/docs/install/autoinstall-reference#storage
[04:55] <OutOfService> yes, I saw that parameter. What could I do with it?
[04:55] <OutOfService> thanks for helping me dbungert
[04:58] <OutOfService> I mean... I will be rebuilding multiple VMs from vmware, so the SN will be diferent. The only one that will keep are the ones in the raid controller. I caoulc make match with the phisical ones, but what else should I do? I just want the installer to pass by them. If the SN of the vm machine would be always the same, I could use the match parameter and install ubuntu on it, but the SN 
[04:58] <OutOfService> will always change.
[14:40] <dbungert> OutOfService: if the SN is unsuitable, does one of model/path/ssd/smallest work better?
[14:40] <shailangsa> does anybody know whether it's by design that extracting RAR files copied over from a windows machine does not work on ubuntu and we need to use unrar instead?
[14:41] <rbasak> shailangsa: unrar instead of what?
[14:43] <shailangsa> after copying the file over from the windows host machine onto the ubuntu guest machine i used "extract here" and it just hangs https://prnt.sc/x_izTq32U431 and then takes up 467GB+ worth of disk space https://prnt.sc/lntyaWQfuL4A
[14:45] <rbasak> "extract here" doesn't sound like an Ubuntu Server question. Have you tried #ubuntu?
