** Description changed: - Experimenting with an oem install, after the user setup and the - installation is complete there is a /target/var/log/installer/telemetry - file.

Thanks to both of you! That's clear, and I never checked/noticed the second one. I'll have a look at how to differentiate it (probably tomorrow).

@didrocks, put differently after the end user setup there are 2 telemetry files: /target/var/log/installer/telemetry and /var/log/installer/telemetry The former must not be created. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773321 Title: OEM installs telemetry file to target folder To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1773321/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I see now my initial description was probably not the clearest since there is an OEM user account.

[Bug 1773321] Re: OEM installs telemetry file to target folder
There are two stages to an OEM install; preparing the image for shipping and the user first boot. Preparing for shipping is fine, but when ubiquity runs on the user first boot there is no /target as far as I'm aware. This is when ubiquity creates a /target folder with the telemetry file in it. ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773321 Title: OEM installs telemetry file to target folder To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1773321/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1773321] Re: OEM installs telemetry file to target folder
I tried both on Bionic and Cosmic desktop 20180528 and I can't reproduce the option, choosing the "OEM" option at startup. Note that this is what I tested before mergintg the changes. Both have /target/var/log/… This is indeed hardcoded alongside other paths in ubiquity which have /target hardcoded. Anything I'm missing? Do you proceed differently to get to that broken status? ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete ** Changed in: ubiquity (Ubuntu Bionic) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1773321 Title: OEM installs telemetry file to target folder To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1773321/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
