| [08:46] <Abhijit> hello | |
| [08:46] <Abhijit> can anyone please try to solve this bug? | |
| [08:46] <Abhijit> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netcfg/+bug/855921 | |
| [08:46] <ubot5> Ubuntu bug 855921 in netcfg (Ubuntu Oneiric) "does not honor netcfg/choose_interface in preseed" [Undecided,Confirmed] | |
| [08:47] <Abhijit> or assign to someone who can solve it? | |
| [09:15] <maxb> That bug is not a bug, it's expected behaviour | |
| [09:16] <maxb> Logic dictates that the contents of a network loaded preseed cannot affect questions asked before the preseed file is downloaded | |
| [09:19] <Abhijit> maxb, just ask the questios "after" the preseed is loaded? | |
| [09:22] <maxb> Erm, no. :-). It needs to choose the interface to enable the network to download the preseed! | |
| [09:22] <Abhijit> maxb, and how does Centos works with same configuration then, out of the box , without any issues? | |
| [09:23] <Abhijit> why centos does not force me to select eth0 before kickstart is loaded? | |
| [09:23] <Abhijit> if centos can do it why can not ubuntu? | |
| [09:23] <Abhijit> maxb, ^ | |
| [09:25] <maxb> Ubuntu can | |
| [09:25] <Abhijit> how? | |
| [09:25] <Abhijit> as we can see from that launchpad bug report, Ubuntu can not? | |
| [09:26] <maxb> You probably just need to turn on the reelated option in your pxelinux config so the pxelinux passes a BOOTIF parameter on the kernel command line | |
| [09:26] <Abhijit> okey. will check on bootif more. | |
| [09:27] <maxb> My guess would be Centos makes a different design decision and assumes the first interface if it has no better information | |
| [09:28] <Abhijit> summary is Centos is better! | |
| [09:28] <Abhijit> your argument is invalid. | |
| [09:31] <maxb> Better for some, worse for others | |
| [09:32] <Abhijit> invalid. | |
| [09:33] <maxb> People doing bulk installsvought to be able to set up the PXE environmwnt to include the information. People doing single installs will either make one more keypress or save a lot of time wondering why it does not work | |
| [09:34] <maxb> however you now appear to be trolling, so I shall stop talking | |
| [11:32] <brainwash> please change the importance of bug 1041176 to wishlist | |
| [11:32] <ubot5> bug 1041176 in xfce4-xkb-plugin (Ubuntu) "feature request - individual shortcuts for keyboard layouts" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1041176 | |
