I haven't nailed down specifics yet, though. 18:05:02 <nirik> DiscordianUK: yeah. Since I now have an efi machine I can help with those... probibly we should do a wiki page writeup or something. 18:05:23 <nirik> EvilBob: sadly so. My distaste for that package continues to grow. ;( 18:05:32 <DiscordianUK> It works for me on a multiple machines 18:05:39 <DiscordianUK> s/a/ 18:05:56 * N3LRX is here 18:06:04 <danofsatx> DiscordianUK: I didn't have an issue with EFI on a clean install of F20. a Dual-boot install of F19 with W8, however, bricked the machine, which is why I got to do a clean F20 install. 18:06:34 <DiscordianUK> But people forget /boot/efi should be the EFI system partition and should not be reformatted 18:06:42 <nirik> EvilBob: it seems safer these days to just assume it doesn't work. ;) 18:06:50 * EvilBob nods 18:07:14 <nirik> DiscordianUK: yeah, a UEFI wiki page might be nice... to just list those differences. 18:07:36 <danofsatx> A lot of the reference documents make no distiction between /boot on BIOS systems and /boot/efi on UEFI systems. 18:07:37 <nirik> I can see about making something and get people to help fill it in. 18:08:13 <DiscordianUK> we populate entries in /boot/efi 18:08:17 <danofsatx> they just default to /boot which could be the source of a lot of confusion 18:08:31 <nirik> yeah, it's just something many aren't used to. ;) 18:08:50 <nirik> also, grub2-efi.cfg instead of grub2.cfg 18:08:57 <nirik> and efibootmgr 18:09:22 <DiscordianUK> i have had my struggles with efibootmgr 18:09:43 <nirik> #info efi issues/confusion seems on the rise, more docs welcome 18:10:18 <nirik> anything else for the last few weeks? 18:10:50 <nirik> I'll note next week in the US is a holiday, so no meeting then. 18:10:59 <nirik> #info next week is holiday in the US, no meeting 18:11:02 <DiscordianUK> okay 18:11:26 <nirik> we have no pending tickets... 18:11:29 <nirik> #topic Open Floor 18:11:41 <nirik> any open floor items? suggestions, ideas, comments, ? 18:12:04 <danofsatx> I need to create a test case for IPv6. Can anyone help with that? 18:12:24 <EvilBob> danofsatx: Not sure what that has to do with this group 18:12:33 <nirik> danofsatx: I could try time permitting... ipv6 works fine here tho. 18:12:51 <kc8hfi> the fedoraunity.org page seems to have trouble finding usernames if someboyd has forgotten their pwd and needs to get it reset 18:13:11 <EvilBob> kc8hfi: the DB is corrupt 18:13:16 <danofsatx> IPv6 in F20 is broken, and I'm not sure of the "correct" test procedures for the Fedora Project 18:13:38 <danofsatx> if there are any, that is 18:13:44 <EvilBob> danofsatx: Lets not drag this group's meeting down with that 18:13:47 <DiscordianUK> i suggest asking in #fedora-qa 18:14:19 <danofsatx> ok - I misunderstood what we were doing here. 18:14:21 <nirik> danofsatx: works here, but yeah, ask qa folks to help duplicate and then file bugs on it. 18:14:23 * danofsatx is sorry 18:14:29 <nirik> no worries. 18:14:32 <kc8hfi> EvilBob: ahh. What do they plan on doing about it? 18:14:41 <EvilBob> kc8hfi: nothing 18:15:35 <EvilBob> kc8hfi: It's perfect, zope+plone is perfectly awesome! You don't question the awesomeness of it! 18:16:18 <nirik> riight. 18:16:50 <nirik> anyhow, thats something for them to determine... not us. ;) 18:16:57 <nirik> anything else for open floor? 18:17:08 <DiscordianUK> not me 18:17:13 <kc8hfi> I reckon i did a bad thing. I questioned just how good zope+plone is! 18:17:51 <EvilBob> kc8hfi: It's OK daMaestro is not here to rip your head off and shit down your neck for it. 18:18:19 <EvilBob> kc8hfi: But now it will be in the log so he will hunt us both down... 18:18:35 <nirik> nice knowing you guys. ;) 18:18:46 * nirik will close out the meeting in a minute if nothing more comes up 18:18:46 <kc8hfi> yeah...that may not be a good thing.... 18:20:03 <nirik> ok, thanks for coming everyone. Do keep helping in #fedora. ;) 18:20:06 <nirik> #endmeeting
