mkukri | finally found the cause of LP: #2060624 | 15:36 |
-ubottu:#lubuntu-devel- Launchpad bug 2060624 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "lubuntu/xubuntu reinstall (& install) on dual boot system, grub does appear & offer OS choice" [Undecided, New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/2060624 | 15:36 | |
mkukri | left an explanation on the ticket, absolutele nightmare bug, took days to debug. now we just need a solution, with a no-reformat re-install grub-mkconfig needs to know that it is not a normal config re-generation and to ignore the existing config | 15:37 |
tsimonq2 | mkukri: You're amazing, thank you :) | 15:38 |
mkukri | no worries :) | 15:39 |
mkukri | also thanks to the guiverc for finding an impossible bug | 15:39 |
mkukri | it seems like this existed for a long long time | 15:39 |
mkukri | i guess the easiest fix is for the installer to nuke the grub data from disk before reinstalling, but that might be undesirable for some cases? | 15:42 |
tsimonq2 | That was my first thought, heh | 15:47 |
tsimonq2 | mkukri: In what cases do you see it being undesirable? | 15:47 |
mkukri | i guess if the user has some wierd grub customizations they want to keep? | 15:48 |
mkukri | although those go into /etc/grub ideally | 15:48 |
tomreyn | just in case this was missed: https://lubuntu.me currently still says "Version 22.04 new! Featuring LXQt desktop" | 19:59 |
tomreyn | downloads are 24.04 already, and there's the blog post, too | 19:59 |
arraybolt3 | mmm, that's something we do need to fix | 20:01 |
arraybolt3 | mkukri, tsimonq2: I have been known to, uh, write grub.cfg from scratch in some corner cases :P That being said just usual GRUB updates are liable to wipe out stunts like that so I wouldn't worry about it too much. Maybe back up the existing file? | 20:02 |
mkukri | i guess copying it to a bak file or something could be fine | 22:04 |
mkukri | and this needs to be fixed seperately in the desktop installer and calamares i guess | 22:04 |
guiverc | :) | 22:39 |
guiverc | Thank you mkukri for working out issue & great explanation on bug report | 23:12 |
