[10:50] <saispo> hi
[11:12] <saispo> cjwatson: which script create the sources.list file ?
[11:13] <saispo> and how can i disable http in it ?
[11:15] <cjwatson> apt-setup
[11:15] <cjwatson> also choose-mirror is involved
[11:15] <cjwatson> see the installation guide for some hints
[11:26] <saispo> ok thanks
[11:26] <saispo> and it's possible to catch a bash variable script in the preseed file ?
[11:27] <saispo> (for automatic detection of the first disk)
[11:27] <saispo> partman-auto/disk string /dev/discs/disc0/disc don't work on edgy as you said...
[11:30] <cjwatson> the installation guide has information on stuff like preseed/early_command; please see that
[11:30] <saispo> ok thks :)
[11:31] <cjwatson> and the kickseed source for how to do first-disk detection
[11:31] <saispo> great

[03:21] <saispo> cjwatson: i fond all answer to my problem, just one :) the sources.list on the cds contain url... and i don't want :/
[03:23] <cjwatson> sorry, swamped right now, maybe somebody else can help you
[03:24] <saispo> no problem :)
[03:24] <saispo> thanks
[03:56] <cjwatson> tepsipakki: would you be interested in looking at bits of https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/feisty-ubiquity ?
[03:56] <cjwatson> or for that matter anyone who wants to do some ubiquity hacking
[03:56] <cjwatson> the items there are supposed to be bite-sized tasks

[04:33] <CIA-4> oem-config: cjwatson * r253 timezone/ (43 files in 9 dirs): add timezone map widget from ubiquity, together with build system for it
[04:45] <CIA-4> oem-config: cjwatson * r254 timezone/debian/changelog: changelog
[04:52] <CIA-4> oem-config: cjwatson * r255 timezone/ (8 files in 5 dirs): UBIQUITY_* -> OEM_CONFIG_*
[05:23] <saispo> cjwatson: argh :/ i move my ftp archive on an external hd and when i build cd all are broken...
[05:23] <saispo> ln -s don't work and mount -o bind same...
[05:23] <saispo> : Invalid cross-device link
[05:23] <saispo> an idea ?
=== mpt [[email protected]] has joined #ubuntu-installer
[06:00] <cjwatson> saispo: I don't believe that ln -s doesn't work. ln (without -s) indeed won't work.
[06:00] <cjwatson> saispo: see the text at the end of debian-cd's README about symlink farming.
[06:06] <saispo> k
[06:07] <saispo> i'm sure ln -s on other hard drive wont work
[06:08] <cjwatson> you're wrong; ln -s is purely textual
[06:08] <cjwatson> all it does is stick the text you give it for the source in the inode for the target
[06:08] <cjwatson> the source doesn't even have to exist, let alone be on the same drive
[06:09] <cjwatson> when creating hard links, the target must exist and must be on the same device
[06:09] <saispo> ok
[06:09] <cjwatson> by default, debian-cd uses hard links
[06:09] <saispo> yep
[06:09] <saispo> but my symlink is not on the same devices :/
[06:09] <cjwatson> with symlinks, that doesn't matter
[06:10] <cjwatson> but as the README says, symlink farming isn't really tested with debian-cd
[06:10] <cjwatson> so good luck :)
[06:10] <saispo> i switch back :)
[06:18] <CIA-4> oem-config: cjwatson * r256 timezone/debian/ (control oem-config-gtk.install oem-config.install rules): build and install timezone widget
[06:21] <CIA-4> oem-config: cjwatson * r253 oem-config/ (gnome-sessions debian/changelog debian/rules oem-config-dm): * Install copyright and changelog files in Architecture: all packages too.
[06:21] <cjwatson> wah
[06:21] <CIA-4> oem-config: cjwatson * r253 oem-config/debian/ (changelog rules): * Install copyright and changelog files in Architecture: all packages too.
[06:21] <cjwatson> yay for bzr uncommit
[06:22] <thom> heh
[06:37] <CIA-4> oem-config: cjwatson * r257 timezone/lib/ (tz.py frontend/gtk-ui.py): initial port of GTK timezone map wrapper and supporting library from ubiquity

[07:57] <CIA-4> ubiquity: cjwatson * r1827 ubiquity/ubiquity/frontend/ubiquity.glade: sorry, but glade-3 open/save did this
=== markTPA is now known as mark
[08:09] <cjwatson> I've uncommitted r1827; it's due to a glade bug which I'll report
[08:13] <cjwatson> http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402941
[08:15] <cjwatson> evand: workaround for http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=402941 is to always hit Save in glade-3 twice in a row rather than once
[08:15] <evand> cjwatson: thanks for the heads up

[10:56] <CIA-4> ubiquity: the method is changed to something other than a filesystem.
