[Bug 1848880] Re: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work
Oh good spot. So the issue is that the install of oem-config-debconf at the end of the install fails because ubiquity's recommends did not get updated to care about the split of grub-efi into grub-efi-amd64 and grub-efi-arm64. We can fix this in ubiquity I think. ** Package changed: debian-installer (Ubuntu) => ubiquity (Ubuntu) ** Summary changed: - Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work + installing ubiquity on efi system tries to remove grub-efi-amd64 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848880 Title: installing ubiquity on efi system tries to remove grub-efi-amd64 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1848880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1848880] Re: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work
I did some more testing and found the common denominator on the machines that it's not working for me on. It seems that this affects machines with UEFI, but not Legacy (BIOS) booting. To verify I created two identical VM's in vmware esxi 6.7u3, set one to EFI boot and the other to BIOS. The Legacy/BIOS boot VM worked normally, however the VM set to EFI boot exhibited "command not found" when attempting to run oem-config-prepare. Apart from BIOS vs UEFI, all other aspects of the VM were the same. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848880 Title: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1848880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1848880] Re: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work
I had it happen again, and was able to reproduce while recording. Attached is video of me installing in OEM mode and then oem-config- prepare being unavailable. Please let me know if there is anything else I can provide. This was with the same 18.04.3-server iso. ** Attachment added: "2019-11-23_1-26-20.mp4" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1848880/+attachment/5307237/+files/2019-11-23_1-26-20.mp4 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848880 Title: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1848880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1848880] Re: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work
I can't tell you how many times I tried this and each time was the same - menu showed OEM mode, but oem-config-prepare was not found once booted. I had even downloaded ubuntu-18.04.3-server.iso, ubuntu-18.04.2-server.iso, ubuntu-18.04.1-server.iso, and the original 18.04-server and tried with them to no avail. Today, after seeing your comment I decided to try it again with the same exact steps and it worked! While intensely curious as to why it didn't work before, I will just be thankful that it does now so I can create my template VM :-) If it resurfaces at a later date, I will bring it up again (with logs of some sort and maybe a video so I don't seem as crazy). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848880 Title: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1848880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1848880] Re: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work
I downloaded the ubuntu-18.04.3-server.iso and completed an install in oem-mode that appeared to work as designed. I logged in as the oem user, ran oem-config-prepare and went through oem-config on the next boot. So I'm not sure what the bug is here. ** Changed in: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848880 Title: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1848880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1848880] Re: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work
The fact that there is no oem-config-prepare / OEM mode on the live- server image is a known thing; I don't think that has been implemented at all in subiquity yet. However, you really should have has oem-config-prepare available at the end of an OEM install from the server image; I'll investigate why that wasn't the case, first by trying to reproduce the issue. ** Changed in: debian-installer (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre (cyphermox) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1848880 Title: Server 18.04.3 OEM Install option doesn't work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debian-installer/+bug/1848880/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
