#debian channel featuring nwe, somiaj, josndir, missmbob, n1b, OS-26831,

josndir 2017-01-25 18:51:30
aha, with lots of trial and error after a few days I just managed to do it
josndir 2017-01-25 18:51:49
just deleted my whole networks file because networkmanager did the job
josndir 2017-01-25 18:52:21
and I changed my own ipv4 to the one I captured over tshark , except for the last digit
nwe 2017-01-25 19:01:46
how should the entry for efi looks like in a preseed file?
OS-26831 2017-01-25 19:14:46
\join #offsec
somiaj 2017-01-25 19:19:39
nwe: I don't think you need anything special for efi, what determines efi is how the installer is boot, not a config option in the installer
missmbob 2017-01-25 19:21:14
maybe the entry he's talking about would be the pem if secureboot was supported?
somiaj 2017-01-25 19:21:47
unsure, I didn't think debian supported secure boot.
nwe 2017-01-25 19:25:02
I have an preseed for non-efi thats working.. but now when I trying on a server that running efi, I cant installed the server because it complain about disk.. and I trying with this http://pastebin.com/9ch6w2hs
nwe 2017-01-25 19:25:41
with out success,
nwe 2017-01-25 19:26:53
and If I using this http://pastebin.com/4V1g8Ydx the machine got installed but it doesnt partition the disk as the preseed says.. http://pastebin.com/4V1g8Ydx
missmbob 2017-01-25 19:26:55
you should really be asking #debian-boot
n1b 2017-01-25 19:28:02
Do you need to have Python installed for Debian to work?
missmbob 2017-01-25 19:28:09
yes
somiaj 2017-01-25 19:28:39
nwe: I am not that familar with preseends, but I see method{ biosgrub } for the first partition? That seems a bit odd for a gpt partition table and using efi, but I don't know enough about preseeds to know what options you need.
nwe 2017-01-25 19:30:05
when I usin the uefi-stuff in the preseed I got tis error.. Failed to partition the selected disk |
nwe 2017-01-25 19:30:08
| This happened because the selected recipe does not contain any |
nwe 2017-01-25 19:30:11
| partition that can be created on LVM volumes
somiaj 2017-01-25 19:32:10
nwe: http://serverfault.com/questions/722021/preseeding-debian-install-efi -- that of any help? I don't understand what it is doing exactly, but maybe there is a clue
nwe 2017-01-25 19:33:50
somiaj: hmm I will take a look on that too
