| [16:29] <user82> can i report a bug without detailed information somewhere? i am not able to collect detailed data i can just explain the phenomenon | |
| [18:59] <popey> user82: sure, what app? | |
| [19:27] <user82> popey ubiquity | |
| [19:28] <user82> on my raid setup ubuntu 11.04 to 13.04 repeateadly got confused where to install grub. i said "/dev/mapper/raidblabla" and it always ran "grub-install --force '/dev/sda'" | |
| [19:28] <user82> even after it had failed to install to /dev/sda am prompted again where to try instead | |
| [19:28] <popey> i didnt think we supported raid on the live cd | |
| [19:29] <user82> i am talking about the installer....? | |
| [19:29] <popey> yes | |
| [19:29] <popey> raid isn't something we support in ubiquity | |
| [19:30] <popey> its possible to bodge an install onto a raid device but we've never had RAID supported out of the box in ubiquity | |
| [19:30] <user82> yes it is a raid device.. | |
| [19:30] <user82> i do not want to create one | |
| [19:30] <user82> it exists | |
| [19:31] <popey> sure, and it may or may not work, but its not a use case we have programmed for | |
| [19:32] <user82> still i am confused where in the chain it gets the destination of grub wrong..even if raid is not supported it should be able to get the string /dev/mapper/raidblabla to the point with grub-install? | |
| [19:32] <user82> well ok.. | |
| [19:33] <popey> bug 1078703 perhaps? | |

| [19:34] <user82> oh okay..i did not find those. let me check! | |
| [19:35] <user82> yes popey you found it. sorry for taking your time... | |
| [19:35] <popey> no problem at all | |
| [19:36] <user82> well it is still not fixed. do you think there is more than a lost variable behind it somewhere in ubiquity? | |
| [19:55] <popey> i honestly don't know | |
| [19:56] <popey> maybe poke xnox during the day tomorrow and ask, he maintains ubiquity now | |
