Ubuntu Installation :: Likewise Open Install With Preseed Not Working?
Jan 6, 2011
I'm having trouble installing likewise open through preseed.I'v used the example from https://help.ubuntu.com/10.04/instal...le-preseed.txt as the source of my preseed file.It works just fine installing openssh, smbfs and libpam-mount. Se the code below. But if I try adding likewise to the code below installation stops when the likewise package is starting to install.Quote:
# Individual additional packages to install
d-i pkgsel/include string openssh-server build-essential smbfs libpam-mount
# Whether to upgrade packages after debootstrap.

I have installed likewise-open to authenticate on Active Directory and pam_mount for mounting folders.
Now when I logon to local user

I have a problem to get it to work. The installer seems to read the preseed-file alright, and some of the values defined in the preseed-file are taken into account. The questions regarding locale, keyboard layout and time zone are answered using the preseed-file, but in the user account creation-step the process goes wrong. The Full name-field is obtained from the preseed-file, but the login-name is generated by the installer and not read from the preseed. Also the password-fields are empty and not filled in. Also the script that I've defined with preseed/late_command is never run.
I tried searching the forums but no-one had exactly this kind of problem, so it makes me think that this has to be some trivial error I'm doing. Could someone take a look at these configs and see if there's something wrong with them? How should I continue resolving this?

I am trying to get preseed working on a bunch of machines with multiple NICs but it doesn't pick the right interface and/or gets "no link" on all interfaces. My PXE kernel line looks like so (I have auto=true priority=critical and interface=auto)
label squeeze
kernel debian-installer/squeeze/i386/linux
append vga=788 initrd=debian-installer/squeeze/i386/initrd.gz auto=true priority=critical ramdisk_size=10800 root=/dev/rd/0 rw url=example.com/d-i/squeeze/preseed.cfg interface=auto netcfg/dhcp_timeout=60

I'm running Ubuntu 10.04 Server x86 64-bit and installed likewise-open, which I think is version 5.4. I can authenticate with Active Directory credentials, but it seems to hang when I log in. I can press Ctrl-C and break out of the hang, but was interested to see what was causing the behavior. I noticed lsassd was taking up about 99% of CPU while in this hung state. I then did a
Code:
tail -f /var/log/syslog and discovered lsassd was doing some type of query for what appeared to by every user in our Active Directory as I saw hundreds of entries like this being added to the syslog:
Code:
May 25 14:21:27 coe-web lsassd[1225]: 0x7f5bc72c1710:The user attributes in the cache data for 'domainjohndoe' are invalid. The cache database or user data in Active Directory could be corrupt.
Is there some setting I can change so it doesn't do this?

I'm having a bit of a struggle here. I recently installed likewise-open 6 to logon to my company domain.
All is working fine but one thing, the gnome-terminal autocomplete function.
All that the terminal shows is a "$" sign and nothing else. When I type in a part of a word and press "TAB" it registers as a tab and does not show the autocomplete options that I normally have. it's very annoying to type a long sentence every time.

Tinking around and found "likewise-open-server" as an installable package. I installed it, but cannot find it anywhere in gnome. Anybody know what this package does? How to use it? I googled it but can't find much.

I've generated a preseed for my Ubuntu Lucid installation, its loading ubiquity automatically (from kernel parm automatic-ubiquity) and it fills in all the values from the preseed file its given. However it displays the Ubiquity page "Ready to Install" (I am using the kubuntu ubiquity package) and I have to click the button install for it to start. How can I get it to skip this and just start installing?

I've run into a situation where when performing a pxe/preseed install the system boots up into the install without issue, getting a dhcp address, then the installer begins to configure the network and it gets to where it request a dhcp address and it instantly fails the install stating that we are either not using dhcp or it's slow.
I've added d-i netcfg/dhcp_timeout string 600 to the preseed file but it doesn't seem to be honoured here since it doesn't wait 600 seconds before failing. I have 2 other identical systems that install using the same preseed file but the installer completes as expected. This system has no issues installing centos just debian fails. I did try, once the install failed, to switch to the console and run udhcpc and the server received the address reserved for it.
Is there a method to force debian installer to wait a bit longer for the dhcp server besides what I've already done?

I would like to create an unattended install ubuntu 10.10 cd. I have followed the ubuntu [URL].. on creating the preseed file, however, I can't find any useful tutorial on how to set the kernel parameters to perform an unattended install using my preseed file.

I recently upgraded from Maverick to Natty. The upgrade process went fine and I am able to log in to Natty and use my computer fine.
However, during the installation there was an error upgrading likewise-open from 5.0.xx to 6.0.xx. I thought perhaps removing likewise-open 5.0.xx and installing 6.0.xx (instead of upgrading) may fix the problem.
This what I get:

I'm trying to preseed a 10.04 install, and it's giving me a lot of trouble. I've been using [url] as a guide, but I can't seem to make it work.
I have ripped the x64 alternate install .iso to my hard drive, inserted the preseed files (details on this later) and remastered and burned the iso. When I put the disc into my test PC, it boots up to the CD, checks for English keyboard, enters my custom install option and then fails. It brings up a red screen that says, "Incorrect CD-ROM detected. The CD-ROM drive contains a CD which cannot be used for installation. Please insert a suitable CD to continue with the installation."
The way I've understood the documentation is that there are 2 files that needed edited, and one file that needs created: edit /isolinux/text.cfg, edit /isolinux/isolinux.cfg, and create /preseed.cfg
Here is what I currently have in those files:
Code:
Code:
Code:
The preseed.cfg is 95% copied from the ubuntu documentation, I've only made the changes that are necessary. I'll admit I do not know what most of the boot parameters in the /isolinux/text.cfg file mean.

I am trying to preseed the UBUNTU 9.04 x86 installer and everything else is okay except that for some systems, it says "No Network Interfaces found" with options as "Continue" and "Go Back". My network interface detection is set to "auto" in my preseed file. I want to remove this popup. Can someone please help with the correct line in preseed.cfg?

I just made a custom ubuntu, following these instructions [url], and it works great, but during the install ubiquity tries to check the cd for extra packages... and prompts an error... but it doesn't have any packages nor it is needed to have... i just want that ubiquity skips this instruction.... I'm guessing the correct pressed instruction will solve this, but I can't find any mention to this...

I'm trying to create preseed configuration for debian. Currently I'm working with Debian version: 7 (wheezy), Installer build: 20130613+deb7u2+b1.
What I want to achieve is to have different network configuration than during installation.
I have two preseed files, one in intrd and the second that is fetched through http (url argument to kernel)
In the initrd file there are settings required to get dhcp network settings that will be used during installation:
Code: Select alld-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto
d-i netcfg/get_hostname string unassigned-hostname
d-i netcfg/get_domain string unassigned-domain
Then in the preseed file that is downloaded from network i have this:
Code: Select alld-i netcfg/choose_interface select auto
d-i netcfg/disable_autoconfig boolean true
d-i netcfg/get_ipaddress string 192.168.56.199
d-i netcfg/get_netmask string 255.255.255.0
[Code] ....
IP address settings work as expected, at the end of the installation netcfg runs again and when installed system boots it has static address set (.199). However hostname stays the same, it is not reconfigured.
I have tried many different combinations like removing get_hostname and get_domain options form initrd preseed and appending 'priority=critical' to kernel boot arguments but no matter what I do it always fails.
Is there any way to do this? I know that hostname can be set by hostname= krenel boot arg or by using dhcp option but I'd like to avoid this.

I'm booting a usb stick with a custom initrd.gz, which contains a preseed.cfg at /. This preseed.cfg has the following initial lines:
d-i debian-installer/language string en
d-i debian-installer/country string BR
d-i debian-installer/locale string en_US.UTF-8
But the installer keeps asking for language/country/locale.

I'm trying to automate Squeeze 6 installation with preseed.cfg, but the keyboard configuration (fr) is not taken into account.Given the debconf logs, it seems that the language is set before preseed.cfg is read. So I added "console-keymaps-at/keymap=fr locale=fr_FR" to the syslinux.cfg kernel line.That skips the installer keyboard selection page. But in debconf logs I can seed "Setting debconf/language to en".What am I doing wrong ?Here are the related options I set in preseed.cfg. I can't find an exhaustive debconf options list, and their exact meaning ; does anyone know of one ?d-i debian-installer/locale string fr
# The values can also be preseeded individually for greater flexibility.
d-i debian-installer/language string fr
d-i debian-installer/country string FR

in searching i never found an article that got it just right. so here it is tried and true..
1. I usually start out assigning myself a static ip address. this is not needed to join but its something I always do.
2. next i set my dns settings in resolve.conf to my local dns server
3. download likewise "apt-get install likewise-open"
4. for kerberos i just leave it blank
5. go to your nsswitch.conf file located in /etc/ and set the hosts to only files and dns
6. now you should stop your networking and start it again so that the dns changes take effect.
7. you are now ready to try and join your domain. "domainjoin-cli join fqdn.of.yourdomain administrator" you can substitute administrator with any admin account
you should now be joined to your domain for adding sudo rights to the "administrator" membership
1. open your sudoers file located in /etc/
2. the following line to the bottom of the file "%DOMAIN\administrators ALL=(ALL) ALL" replace DOMAIN with your domain name. do not use your fqdn. all set. hope you enjoy

I'm having a problem getting likewise to connect to a Windows 2008 R2 server on our network.
[code]....
Error: Lsass Error [code 0x00080047] 9502 (0x251E) DNS_ERROR_BAD_PACKET - A bad packet was received from a DNS server. Potentially the requested address does not exist. I have already read up on this a little bit. Both servers are within a minute of each other, so I am not concerned about server timing. I am not sure where to go from this point. Everything I have read seems to indicate that this should "just work".

I installed 9.10 on a Vista 64-bit PC with AMD64 dual core. I have 3 hard drives. 1 x partitioned in to 2 for Vista and its appluications on the other partition. I have another hard drive partitioned with one for documents and the other for Ubuntu OS. The 3rd hard drive was for future backup....
I started to install Ubuntu 10.4 with the Update Manager. It got to the stage where it had just finished downloading the new files.when suddenly, I assume as it started the install, all hell broke loose and it crashed. At first I could restart the machine and could see I had lost system info: there were no "SHUT DOWN", "Network" and other buttons and notifcation tablets on the ribbon. The Update Manage was missing bits too.
It did suggest "re try" but that would not work. I then tried Symnaptics and did a "fix broken items". It found over 90, but could not install them. Then it stopped working all together. I can not gain access. It did break Vista too but I managed to get that up and running again, but I have files on the desktop, the Evolution eMail has vast amounts of stuff and I would like to keep the settings in Firefox.. I have tried using the 9.10 CD to fix but if I go in as "trial" and use the update manager or Synaptics it can not complete the install, it says out of memory.
I am happy to reload the OS, either one, but how do I do it without destroying my valuable data..I have two machines I have been working on and neither have worked! See other thread.

I am using version 11.04. I tried installing Open Office and got the error "Failed to install Java Runtime environment files" Exit code 7. Needless I am resentful that they didn't give me a choice to install Open office, but saddled me with Libre office. Now I can't even install open office.

The need which made me come here and share the problem with you is that the proper usage of late_command in preseed file.
I've prepare a preseed file which works fine, but the late_command should install a test script when installation finishes.
What I need is: copying the script from the cdrom into /root directory of the system which is being installed, and execute it! the code I've tried is found from those who previously tried executing script after installation. but for me that doesn't work!

I'm gonna use a preseed file in order to install ubuntu 9.04, in which I put my own recipe for partitioning the linux system, the scheme of the partitioning must be in the following form:
I was looking for a proper configuration on the net, the result below was which I have found while surfing:
code:
The system that I'm gonna perform installation ubuntu on, is a server which has 3 slot of hard disk drive (SAS) and by default HP has configured them functioning in RAID 5. how the exact configuration could be?

I have an apparently stable installation of Xubuntu that I've hand-tweaked in a few ways. I'd like to be able to reinstall this system verbatim on this machine should a disk crash happen, etc.Is there a "standard" method to create an install and/or total-backup CD that would be an instantiation of the currently-installed-and-modified system?

I'm currently trying to use preseed to build an ubuntu server box over the network. I'm using the netboot.tar.gz from the karmic main mirror. By default it installs the standard kernel (linux-2.6.31-16-generic), and I want to use the server kernel (the metapackage linux-server which should install linux-image-2.6.31-16-server). I'm using a minimal build:
Code:
tasksel tasksel/first multiselect minimal As far as I can see all the other preseed settings are close to defaults. I've tried setting both of the following lines (separately and together) with no effect:
Code:

d-i base-installer/kernel/override-image string linux-server
Once the machine is built, if I run:

i needed a new harddrive and installed a new system (10.04 - previously 8.04) on it.one of the things i wanted to install is matlab, however the installer doesn't do anything. I used the same iso image before on 8.04 and the install went smoothly.i cant even get it to display the options.so i untared all matlab related files out of my 8.04 backup.can i just copy those files to the right places in my new system? guess not,but maybe there aren't that many things to modify.
