hmmm it would appear the installer (ubiquity-frontend-gtk) hasn't been included,
apart from that everything else appears ok.

I have looked for "ubiquity" to install but that didn't work for me. Any ideas and/or suggestions are welcome !

Cheers, Peter & Tim

Yeah I noticed that running sudo apt-get update returned a lot of errors.

I think we should wait for tommy to wake up ,I don't know why everyone isn't awake when us Aussies are, and get him to look into it. I'm don't want to step on his toes or send you or others in the wrong direction that have seen this issue.

The lack of ubiquity seems to be an issue when remastering ubuntu based install dvds.

To be perfectly honest I'm not entirely sure if other bits (gparted I think maybe one) needs including.

Hi Beagle,

Thank you for your comments. I agree, let the rest of the world wake up while we finish up work and wait their replies.

I must say Tommy has put a lot of effort in and it looks like it's all worthwhile, if these little glitches are sorted out then it will be a great package to run a plasma cutter (or any other machine).

Cheers, Peter & Tim

Thank you all for not waking me up ! :)
Beagle is right, the remastering software will remove ubiquity always, no matter what.
I am on the phone so i can not verify this, but it should go something like this:
Boot from usb, enable source code and the partner or other repos as there are 2 on the software sources page from the administration menu ( brain fried from to much math last night ), install ubiquity-frontend-gtk ( thank you Beagle ) , use that to install to HDD.
Or you can use DD, but that might need editing the /etc/fstab to make the hdd RW intstead of RO, like so
Dd if=/dev/sdx of=/dev/sdx
Check the names of usb and hdd with
Sudo fdisk -l

No luck with ubiquity.....crashes after copying files :(

Maybe this might be a better util to remaster ?
www.linuxuprising.com/2018/07/how-to-cus...u-or-linux-mint.html

Did a quick run thru, installed mc, gftp & geany during the customisation process.
Booted the created iso installed Mint (ubiquity is still there) and all went well.

The only issue I had was the resolv.conf file in the chroot environment, that was soon sorted.

OK it's 1:25am and I think I should go to bed, The Butter Dog (The Beagle) is staring at me telling me it's bedtime...hopefully work doesn't call me in this morning :(

I'll give it a shot with the Linuxcnc bits later........

This link gives some info about resolv.conf (pretty sure you can work it out from here)
