Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs
This is for this page: http://doc.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/serverguide/C/jeos- and-vmbuilder.html This guide omits a description of the --hostname option, and vmbuilder (on Lucid) won't work without it (see bug 562189), so NONE of the examples in the guide will work! If documentation has a criticality level, I'd say this one rates highly, since it just cost me 2 weeks! Appropriate text might be included with the networking options (--ip etc): --hostname The hostname (one word, must be DNS-safe). No default value; Must be provided I don't know if you have a house style for mandatory parameters, but some kind of emphasis to make it clear would be good. In all the example command lines, add something like the following: --hostname myvm HTH ** Affects: ubuntu-docs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Vital omission on JeOS / vmbuilder page https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/568702 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
