00:42.30boohemiani am trying to do this so i can use the rescue mode of the installer to fix my broken system
00:42.41ulnionbabilen: well, yeah, it's a Frankendebian, - here's the sources.list: http://dpaste.com/596862/
00:43.15dvsBoohbah: So you're trying to extract the files from the iso into that directory?
00:43.47babilenboohemian: You have to cat it to the block device, no idea how to do this on OSX -- can you see some devices in "dmesg" shortly after you plugged it in? But you probably want to ask this in #apple or #osx or so
00:44.21boohemianbabilen: the block device is where the usb stick is located? that's /Volumes/CM_Flash ...

00:45.20ulnionbabilen: sorry, but i have no clue how i can fix this misery....
00:46.54babilenulnion: Well, that sources list is absolutely fine -- It seems as if those packages are quite broken. And they have also been removed post-lenny. You have to make sure that they install/remove correctly though. Try to purge them and if nothing else helps you have to edit their maintainer scripts and add "exit 0" in the .postinst .postrm -- But that would require checking what is actually going on there. /me is too tired for that now.

00:47.32babilenboohemian: That very much looks like the location where it is mounted not the actual device -- I have no idea about OSX, really!
00:48.13dvso_O we're doomed!
00:48.35doc4hollidayjust installed debian squeeze, trying to switch to unstable, do I change *all* "squeeze" to "unstable" in sources.lst or just certain ones?
00:48.36boohemianbabilen: is there another way i can configure this flash drive to run the netinst iso?
00:48.36dasbootHi all.  Is there any way to find out what is making the mousecursor interminably pinwheel? gnome,squeeze
00:48.40ulnionbabilen: ok, how would i purge them usually? just dpkg purge or manually editing any of those 'staging' files (or how they are called) for dkpg?
00:48.57babilenulnion: It looks as if the compilation of the elisp fails which prevents the installation of the eieio package -- you have to remove that and somehow force that.

00:50.59dpkgboohemian: If You Have To Ask, You Shouldn't.
00:51.11babilenulnion: I would first try "apt-get purge eieio semantic ede" -- see if that works, if it does not you probably have to edit /var/lib/dpkg/info/eieio.postinst and add "exit 0" after the "set -x" line -- you can then continue with "apt-get install -f" until you finally have no errors (rinse and repeat for the other two packages) -- Once done you can hopefully purge them.

00:51.59babilenulnion: "that" == "the eieio package" not "that" == "the elisp" -- sorry, that wasn't entirely clear

00:53.03boohemianbabilen: it is a debian question. i am trying to get a debian installer to work so i can fix my debian box
00:53.41babilenfinding the valid block device on OSX is certainly not a debian question
00:53.48ulnionbabilen: well, i just did 'apg-get remove eieio' and then 'apt-get install pong2' (just as a test, not that i need the package) and then 'apt-get remove pong2' - and the semantic-eieio-ede-related error waring seems to be gone now

00:54.16boohemiananyway, i get resource busy so i don't know what else to do

00:59.19ulnionbabilen: 1) so you recommend installing eieio/ede/semantic manually instead of using the (backported?) packages?   -   2) Upgrading to squeeze sounds like more than just updating sources.list and running apt-get update/upgrade?
00:59.43ulnioni guess i should just read the guide on how to do that

01:01.24doc4hollidayphilipballew_, it prolly don't resolve to philip4, tried by IP address?
01:01.24babilendoc4holliday: But to answer your initial question: No, as packages are directly uploaded to sid (with all the breakage that might bring) there is no distinct security support for it or the need to provide a second way to upload updated versions. So both of them have to go.
01:01.33babilenboohemian: No idea, probably

The driver does not provide much in terms of debug log, and the problem is somewhat random, so it's really hard to caracterize. I observed quite a few interesting points: my client has a lot of rx packet error, it bit rate changes frequently even though I'm sitting next to the box.

05:21.19wols_http://pastie.org/private/suerez4xjl72u0m7rlx49g is a menu.lst. grub.cfg uses "linux" instead of "kernel". but you are arguing when you should fix your problem. good day
05:21.20boohemianisn't insmod a grub2 only command... so i am using grub2? or at least grub.cfg is a grub2 config file?

05:31.10cantidoboohemian: I might not be remembering 100%, but you shouldnt get that panic.. because at that stage your rootfs is the initramfs..
05:31.27cantidoboohemian: its possible that is the problem and not your actual rootfs
05:31.38akiowols_: looks like it has something to do with: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=604163
05:33.06boohemiancantido: which means?
05:33.26cantidoboohemian: try to post the full boot log somewhere
05:34.14cantidoboohemian: basically, in a modern linux system the rootfs first mounted by the kernel isn't your disk.. so you shouldn't really hit that panic.. unless you have a custom kernel without initramfs support

12:55.22hugoroydadminewb: how can i do that?
12:55.27hugoroydwith grub?
12:55.41adminewbrunlv 1 - aka recovery mode?
12:55.53adminewbyes grub should give you recovery menu items
12:55.59hugoroydwell, rescue mode asks for root password so same problem
12:56.10adminewbhmm, I've not seen that
12:56.17hugoroyd(it says rescue mode i believe, but i might be wrong, it's the CTRL+D to continue thing)
12:56.26adminewbnever needed root pw on ubuntu's recovery
12:57.08hugoroydwell, this is debian squeeze, IMHO fedora also asks for root password at this stage
12:57.20adminewbon my grub2 menu (grub legacy's been obsolete for a long time) for every bootable kernel I get an alternate menu item for recovery / single-user mode
12:57.20hugoroyds/IMHO/In my experience
12:57.49adminewbthose runlv=1 items, none of them asks a pw to get to root shell
12:57.53hugoroydif that is different from the rescue mode, I want to try that: but GRUB didn't give me the option, I guess I can write it manuallu thogh
12:58.00adminewbafk
12:58.26adminewbback
12:58.43adminewbgrub might be configured to not produce the recovery menu items

15:52.38babilenchi: The warning is a bit wrong -- The reason for it is that "/e/i/networking restart" or "service networking restart"  runs "ifdown -a" and "ifup -a" which does not guarantee that the same set of interfaces as before if up afterwards.
15:52.46*** join/#debian zendeavor (zendeavor@pingas.org)
15:53.13chibabilen, thank you for the explanation =)
15:54.42babilenchi: ifdown -a will take down *all* active interfaces, but ifup -a will only bring up those with auto stanzas -- I wouldn't necessarily call "networking restart" deprecated. And IIRC invoke-rc.d is not meant to be used by users but only in maintainer scripts (but I might conflate invoke-rc.d with update-rc.d here)

16:50.35Martin_vWHi, I'm having a problem with Debian packaging. Back in lenny I created a package freeradius-iserv for my company that contains the EAP libraries for freeradius (back then they weren't contained in the freeradius package due to licensing issues). Now all our lenny servers have both freeradius and freeradius-iserv installed. When I upgrade such a server, apt breaks because the new freeradius package contains the same files as my old freeradius-iserv packa

19:28.14WormFoodis there a debian method for adding routes to the routing table on startup? Of course I know how to do it if there is no debian way...I just want to learn the debian way if it exists for this.

19:30.19WormFoodthen I tell him where I want to go, and he says "you can't get there from here"
19:30.53nsadminyou want specific static routes? I think potentially you could add them to /etc/network/interfaces
19:31.05nsadminsee man 5 interfaces to see the stanza you need

19:32.02WormFoodyeah, I looked there before I asked here, as I  thought that would be the most likely place, of the places I know...but there does not appear to be anything for adding static routes to that
19:32.04nsadmin(I should do this too) see man ip which is the replacement for both ifconfig and route
19:32.38WormFoodthat is just the command (I looked at that too, before I asked here)
19:32.46nsadminprobably that file assumes there is an interface which you want to add the route to
19:32.50WormFoodI always just use "route"
19:33.16WormFoodbut I need to do this on startup, as this static route needs to exist all the time.
19:33.21nsadminat some pt you might have to learn ip
19:33.31WormFoodthat is not a problem
19:33.47WormFoodbut, at this point....I'm just trying to discover is there is a debian way for doing this.

19:35.23nsadminI would say you'd have it run a command to add your route

19:37.08WormFoodhttp://www.cyberciti.biz/tips/configuring-static-routes-in-debian-or-red-hat-linux-systems.html hahaha, that is exactly how they're doing it
19:37.29WormFoodso, there is no debian specific way to do it
19:37.53nsadminwell the interfaces file is probably a debianism
19:38.17WormFooddid it originate with debian, or did debian take it from another package?

I'm having a problem with a debian system which has two IPs in the same subnet, one on eth0 the other on eth0:1... neither are pingable from outside the router for that network... is that a problem with having two IPs in the same subnet, or a problem with the router config?
19:47.09blinkiI just updated a node from 5 to 6 and it seems that update-from-grub-legacy is missing, any ideas?
19:47.23twobitspriteboth IPs are reachable from within the network though

21:03.39dpkgFirst, check for a backport on <debian-backports>.  If unavailable: 1) Add a deb-src line for sid (not a deb line!); ask me about <deb-src sid> 2) enable debian-backports (see <bdo>) 3) aptitude update; aptitude install build-essential; aptitude build-dep packagename; apt-get -b source packagename; 4) install the resultant debs.  To change compilation options, see <package recompile>; for versions newer than sid see <uupdate>.
