[04:25] <mybalzitch> moving my install to UEFI and different drives seems fun so far
[11:32] <montjoie> hello I did a pxe 22.04 boot but it ignore all automatedinstall parameters
[11:33] <montjoie> I used ip=dhcp autoinstall cloud-config-url=/dev/null url=http://10.1.1.4/jammy/ubuntu-22.04.4-live-server-amd64.iso autoinstall ds=nocloud-net;s=http://10.1.1.4/jammy/
[14:54] <dbungert> montjoie: are your autoinstall parameters under a top-level autoinstall keyword?  https://canonical-subiquity.readthedocs-hosted.com/en/latest/tutorial/providing-autoinstall.html#autoinstall-by-way-of-cloud-config
[17:13] <mybalzitch> argh I hate uefi
[17:15] <patdk-lap> why?
[17:16] <mybalzitch> because I don't know how to use it properly
[17:17] <mybalzitch> I'm moving my install from legacy to uefi, and its not seeing the boot entry and I'm not sure if its because I didn't install grub properly, or if its because I made a / and /boot/efi parition only and they're both in the mdadm
[17:17] <mybalzitch> / is ext4
[17:17] <patdk-lap> only part I dislike is fat32 usage really
[17:18] <patdk-lap> did you make a efi partition?
[17:18] <patdk-lap> install grub efi, have it init the efi partition
[17:19] <patdk-lap> then register that boot option in you uefi bios
[17:19] <mybalzitch> thats what /boot/efi is
[17:19] <mybalzitch> made it fat32
[17:19] <patdk-lap> so you have like, /boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu
[17:19] <mybalzitch> yeah
[17:22] <patdk-lap> https://askubuntu.com/questions/831216/how-can-i-reinstall-grub-to-the-efi-partition
[17:23] <patdk-lap> you might have to select it manually
[17:23] <patdk-lap> it really wants to be booted in uefi mode to have all the efi stuff available
[17:23] <patdk-lap> I just did this last weekend on this machine, last one I had not using uefi
[17:23] <patdk-lap> but the new motherboard wouldn't boot my m.2 drive in legacy mode, only uefi
[17:25] <patdk-lap> do make sure you have grub-efi installed and not grub-pc
[17:27] <mybalzitch> I will try this, thank you
[17:36] <mybalzitch> oh its failing because I have my efi partition nested inside a mdadm apparently
[17:37] <patdk-lap> oh ya, you cannot raid it like that
[17:38] <mybalzitch> not if I wanna boot off of it!
[17:38] <patdk-lap> it has to be raw, you could use mdadm to do this, but mdadm needs a seperate partition or something to track the metadata
[17:38] <patdk-lap> sure you can
[17:38] <patdk-lap> I do it
[17:39] <patdk-lap> you can use a seperate meatadata partition for mdadm, or use the version of mdadm metadata at end of partition
[17:41] <patdk-lap> might have to use v1.0
[17:41] <patdk-lap> you are likely using 1.2 or 1.1 that puts it at the start
[18:32] <mybalzitch> heyy I totally redid it and it seems to work now
