fling | What is that command for editing runlevels | 05:42 |
---|---|---|
fling | [X] [ ] one | 05:42 |
fling | Is there a good guide for munin? | 05:43 |
gnarface | not really, but it's not a complex beast | 05:43 |
gnarface | the runlevel editor you're thinking of was ntsysv | 05:43 |
gnarface | (i think it might be available but it was a redhat thing) | 05:43 |
onefang | sysv-rc-conf might do what you want, but I don't know what you want to do. | 05:44 |
gnarface | the howto information that is on the munin wiki and i think might also bundled with it was kinda dodgy and incomplete but you generally could patch together the rest of the information you need by reading the plugin files themselves | 05:46 |
gnarface | i guess it has been a while since i've looked into it, but last i checked they were moving from trac to something else | 05:47 |
gnarface | so that might have harmed the already marginal state of the community-contributed documentation | 05:47 |
fling | onefang: sysv-rc-conf works! | 06:06 |
fling | gnarface: am I supposed to install apache? | 06:06 |
gnarface | fling: for what? oh, for munin... well you need to host the graphs somewhere | 06:09 |
gnarface | fling: i don't think apache was a strict requirement but i recall the documentation may have only explained the setup assuming apache | 06:09 |
* fling found https://wiki.debian.org/Munin/ApacheConfiguration | 06:09 | |
gnarface | fling: if it is for debian wheezy or earlier, probably nothing has changed | 06:10 |
gnarface | and after wheezy i would imagine the part that changes was the startup/shutdown parts | 06:10 |
gnarface | the only part* | 06:10 |
fling | don't I need cgi? | 06:11 |
gnarface | well, broadly, yes | 06:11 |
gnarface | nobody calls it that anymore | 06:11 |
fling | looks like I need it for zoom | 06:12 |
gnarface | oh you mean the javascript part? | 06:12 |
fling | but I want to generate graphs by cron anyway | 06:12 |
fling | no, I want the images :D | 06:12 |
gnarface | nobody ever really called that cgi, but yea you need an insecure javascript hook if you want graphs to be arbitrarily zoomable to any resolution | 06:12 |
gnarface | javascript->ajax->dhtml whatever that punches a hole right into your server | 06:13 |
fling | insecure? | 06:13 |
gnarface | it's pretty dumb but it's insecure, that's why it's just quietly left in a broken state on install | 06:13 |
gnarface | that's them trying to sweep the shame under the rug | 06:13 |
gnarface | you don't really need it | 06:13 |
fling | ok no zoom then | 06:13 |
fling | I don't even need html | 06:14 |
gnarface | well, you need the html. you'll still get hourly/weekly/monthly graphs put in nice linked up grids with auto-generated html | 06:14 |
gnarface | you want that, that's the main feature of the thing | 06:14 |
gnarface | adding notification hooks to scripts and such is incidental | 06:14 |
fling | oh ok | 06:14 |
gnarface | those all get generated and stuffed into a apache virtualhost | 06:15 |
gnarface | the javascript hook to let you request on-the-fly a zoomed version at arbitrary precision, that's the optional feature you can just ignore | 06:15 |
gnarface | just leave that part broken, that's my advice | 06:15 |
fling | Alias /munin /var/cache/munin/www | 06:15 |
fling | is already in /etc/munin/apache24.conf | 06:16 |
gnarface | you still using apache24 or is it 26 now? | 06:16 |
gnarface | 2.4 vs 2.6 | 06:16 |
gnarface | they may have left behind a vestigial config. make sure it's even the one in use | 06:16 |
fling | -V says Apache/2.4.38 | 06:16 |
gnarface | also the permissions for virtualhosts are done different in 2.6, you should re-examine the documentation on the matter | 06:16 |
fling | I just installed it | 06:16 |
gnarface | oh, alright | 06:17 |
gnarface | nevermind the 2.6 thing if you're sure then | 06:17 |
gnarface | but still make sure that's the right config | 06:17 |
gnarface | oh, and i misread it myself; also you need to check /etc/apache2/*.conf | 06:17 |
fling | ok I skipped installing libapache2-mod-fcgid | 06:17 |
gnarface | hmmm, that part you might still need | 06:18 |
gnarface | you still need the perl stuff | 06:18 |
fling | ok installing | 06:18 |
fling | I can't figure out which file to put the examples to https://wiki.debian.org/Munin/ApacheConfiguration#Cron_HTML_and_graphs.2C_no_zoomable_graph | 06:34 |
fling | I put the config under >> For reference, the Apache config looks like this: | 06:34 |
fling | to /etc/apache2/sites-available/100-munin.conf | 06:34 |
fling | then enabled it and now getting forbidden trying to access it on 127.1 | 06:35 |
gnarface | fling: permissions have to be right on the filesystem and in the apache config | 06:39 |
fling | look right for 100-munin.conf | 06:39 |
fling | hmm | 06:40 |
fling | I have no idea, I always used nginx haha | 06:40 |
gnarface | fling: https://paste.debian.net/1164924/ | 06:42 |
gnarface | fling: here's mine. i'm suspecting that the differences are immaterial, and the problem with your setup is elsewhere in that file | 06:43 |
fling | which file is this? | 06:43 |
gnarface | fling: well, it's one of those sites-available files, but i created it myself. it has a bunch of other things in it | 06:43 |
fling | ok | 06:44 |
gnarface | fling: i have other graphing processes sharing that virtualhost, as well as ssl and http basic auth setup | 06:44 |
gnarface | fling: (you need other stuff in this file besides just the munin config) | 06:45 |
fling | ok now getting 500 | 06:45 |
fling | hmm | 06:45 |
gnarface | it doesn't have to be like mine, but every apache VirtualHost has a few required fields | 06:45 |
gnarface | there should have been a generic example shipped with apache and put in /etc/apache2/sites-available/default or something like that | 06:46 |
fling | can't I use it without apache | 06:46 |
gnarface | sure... i think so. in theory you could browse the http cache on disk with a browser running on the server. that's just not advisable because that's not very secure either. | 06:47 |
fling | this is what I'm doing browsing 127.0.0.1/munin there | 06:48 |
gnarface | you should have error logs somewhere in /var/log/apache2 | 06:48 |
gnarface | mabye that will give you a hint about what is wrong with your config | 06:48 |
gnarface | https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/vhosts/examples.html | 06:49 |
gnarface | unlike munin, apache has very good documenation. | 06:49 |
gnarface | i'm sure you can make it work with nginx but i'm not sure it's really worth it. knowing apache is a valuable skill. | 06:50 |
gnarface | anyway i don't know shit about nginx so you're on your own with that | 06:50 |
fling | I just wanted to get the graphs | 06:53 |
gnarface | then run the cron job | 06:54 |
gnarface | it should run on it's own every 5 minutes | 06:54 |
gnarface | it should have run several times by now just while we were talking about it, with or without apache | 06:55 |
fling | I have nothing in /var/spool/cron/crontabs/ | 06:55 |
gnarface | well you would probably have to set up the cron job | 06:55 |
gnarface | didn't it mention that? | 06:55 |
* fling found /etc/cron.d/munin | 06:56 | |
gnarface | the graphs should be in /var/cache/munin/www/ or something symlinked to it, i forget | 07:01 |
gnarface | (to it or under it) | 07:01 |
fling | yeah the issue is they don't appear there | 07:01 |
fling | I had the same on gentoo today | 07:01 |
gnarface | the cron, is it running? | 07:01 |
gnarface | is cron even running? | 07:01 |
fling | yes, I see it from the logs | 07:01 |
gnarface | ?anything at all in that directory | 07:01 |
fling | it has static in it | 07:02 |
gnarface | like i said, it might take a couple runs for it to actually build stuff | 07:02 |
gnarface | do you see a index.* file? | 07:02 |
gnarface | or default* or whatever? | 07:02 |
gnarface | any html file? | 07:02 |
fling | yeah I have regular stuff in /var/cache/munin/www/static/ | 07:03 |
fling | logos css etc | 07:03 |
gnarface | did you actually add any host definitions to /etc/munin/munin.conf? | 07:05 |
fling | oh looks like I need to install munin-node | 07:05 |
gnarface | yes | 07:05 |
gnarface | you actually have to have clients sending data or it doesn't have any work to do | 07:05 |
gnarface | the host can also run a client, there is no confusion | 07:05 |
gnarface | so it's safe to monitor the host as well | 07:05 |
fling | right | 07:05 |
fling | gnarface: I rebuilt rrdtool on gentoo and now it works, thanks | 07:26 |
fling | it is segfaulting when built with hardware cflags for some reason | 07:26 |
fling | I will try setting it on devuan later | 07:27 |
fling | with nginx ^ | 07:27 |
fling | gnarface: how to set the locale for graphs? | 07:48 |
fonxtadeluxe | morning every one | 08:02 |
gnarface | fling: i don't remember off the top of my head, but make sure you have the locales package installed in case it's like everything else. otherwise i'd check the munin config files | 08:19 |
fling | ok | 08:31 |
mason | Random note, as of this latest kernel, for reasons I haven't tracked, it's necessary for ALSA users to be part of the "audio" group. | 15:40 |
mason | I can envision that biting people. | 15:41 |
buZz | mason: the kernel doesnt even know about user groups | 15:46 |
buZz | at least for alsa | 15:46 |
mason | buZz: Something changed, presumably in the initramfs/eudev/something. | 15:46 |
buZz | ok, so dont blame the kernel then :P | 15:47 |
mason | I'm saying as of the new kernel, which was the biggest thing in the batch. I haven't chased down what changed. | 15:47 |
mason | I didn't. | 15:47 |
r3boot | permissions under /dev likely | 15:47 |
DHE | yeah that'll be a udev rules thing | 15:48 |
mason | But either way, that's the answer if someone comes in saying the recent update left them without sound. | 15:49 |
ShorTie | sounds like the alsa install needs a tweek to add users to audio | 15:54 |
ShorTie | group | 15:54 |
r3boot | Afaik this is something that is supposed to be handled by the installer; Being part of a number of groups is required for udev afaik. Atleast video & audio | 15:56 |
r3boot | And historically, stuff like the cdrom+floppy group | 15:56 |
mason | It'd be worth verifying that the installer doesn't do the right thing. I tend to do bare debootstrap installs. Looking. | 15:57 |
mason | Yeah, not the installer's fault. It sets a number of sane groups, including audio. | 15:58 |
mason | But new accounts created after install don't get that by default, which is the case with the accounts I saw misbehaving. The interesting thing to me is that the permissions were loose enough before the update. | 15:58 |
mason | FWIW, regardless of what bit actually changed, the kernel package is the only thing I see here that's even vaguely related: https://bpa.st/NSMA I'm guessing something in initramfs generation changed, although I don't know what. I don't see *udev packages updating any time recently, although if they had, maybe the initramfs wasn't updated. | 16:03 |
mason | All I really know is that my kid woke me up yesterday because she couldn't figure out how to un-mute the TV. | 16:03 |
mason | Luckily I checked audio group membership fairly early on and didn't burn much time. | 16:04 |
rennj | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Audio/TheAudioGroup | 16:19 |
rennj | could be consolekit | 16:19 |
rennj | The ConsoleKit daemon automatically switches access to the audio device according to the currently logged in user. | 16:19 |
rennj | asound.conf check perhaps | 16:20 |
rennj | f the acl USE flag enabled globally and ConsoleKit is being used (i.e the system is using a desktop profile) permissions to sound cards will be handled automatically. Permissions can be checked using getfacl: | 16:22 |
fsmithred | I thought you always had to be a member of the audio group to use alsa. You can set what groups a new user gets in /etc/adduser.conf. | 16:23 |
rennj | https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/ALSA | 16:23 |
rennj | heh i can remember doing setuid/setgid on libalsa so vmware would have access | 16:23 |
n4dir | if what i want is to not automatically install apps from a third party repo, but point to it with apt-get -t, but then i want the deps to be installed from that repo too, is Pin-Priority 1 the right choice? | 16:27 |
n4dir | what a sentence ... urgh | 16:27 |
mason | rennj: Good catch. | 16:31 |
mason | fsmithred: I've never looked in adduser.conf before. Nifty. Thank you. | 16:32 |
mason | https://bpa.st/LNDQ | 16:34 |
fsmithred | mason, yeah, I uncomment those two variables and I add netdev to the list | 16:36 |
n4dir | and another question: how do i start gparted from a window-manager? | 16:42 |
mason | n4dir: Depends on the window manager. What's the environment? | 16:42 |
n4dir | e16 | 16:42 |
fsmithred | n4dir, if you want the packages to upgrade automatically from that repo, use 100. | 16:42 |
n4dir | ok, fsmithred thanks | 16:42 |
fsmithred | beowulf? | 16:43 |
mason | n4dir: They'll have a launcher of some sort, I imagine. alt-enter or alt-d are probably common, as is... alt-f2? Not remembering. | 16:43 |
fsmithred | try gparted-pkexec in user's terminal | 16:43 |
n4dir | yes, i use gmrun | 16:43 |
fsmithred | if not, then fix root's path and just run it from root terminal | 16:43 |
fsmithred | see man apt_preferences for discussion of how priorities are used | 16:44 |
n4dir | Ok, i did "su", and then i can start gparted. But if i click on new, i can't set a filesystem, but only "cleared" | 16:44 |
fsmithred | ? | 16:45 |
n4dir | gparted-pkexec doesn't seem to exist. apt-cache search doesn't show it. hunting for it | 16:45 |
fsmithred | no filesystem in the format list? | 16:45 |
n4dir | no | 16:45 |
buZz | thats fine though | 16:45 |
buZz | partitioning doesnt need to format as a fs | 16:46 |
fsmithred | huh, it's gone | 16:46 |
mason | Hrm, apt-file search *bin/gparted returns nothing on Beowulf for me. | 16:46 |
buZz | i dont use gparted either, fdisk is fine by me | 16:46 |
n4dir | "cleared" and "unformatted", all filesystems are greyed out | 16:46 |
fsmithred | I have /usr/sbin/gparted and /usr/sbin/gpartedbin | 16:46 |
n4dir | yes, that too | 16:46 |
buZz | n4dir: thats ok, just make it unformatted and make it a fs later | 16:46 |
fsmithred | something is missing | 16:46 |
n4dir | buZz: ok, will try | 16:47 |
fsmithred | check to make sure you have the tools to make a filesystem | 16:47 |
n4dir | i ran in the same problem with debian and buntu, in the end installed xfce, started gparted, did my thing, removed xfce again. Now that i call user comfort | 16:47 |
n4dir | fsmithred: don't they come with gparted? | 16:47 |
fsmithred | you have a greyed out list of filesystems, or just the one item in the list? | 16:49 |
n4dir | e2fsprogs is what gparted mentions, but that is installed | 16:49 |
n4dir | greyed out | 16:49 |
fsmithred | ok | 16:49 |
fsmithred | some things don't get added automatically - like btrfs for example | 16:49 |
fsmithred | not sure what else | 16:49 |
n4dir | yeah, i am not in such fancy stuff. ext4 or such | 16:50 |
fsmithred | looks like filesystems are Suggests of gparted, not Depends or even Recommends | 16:50 |
n4dir | gparted says a program is missing, mentions names e2fsprogs, that is installed. | 16:50 |
fsmithred | you got mke2fs? | 16:50 |
fsmithred | /sbin/mke2fs | 16:51 |
n4dir | yes. got it | 16:51 |
fsmithred | wtf? | 16:52 |
n4dir | perhaps the problems relates to having done "su" (without -) and started gparted then | 16:52 |
fsmithred | uh | 16:52 |
n4dir | not that keen to install xfce only for that operation (without knowing if it will work) | 16:52 |
fsmithred | with su -, root can['t use user's X | 16:53 |
mason | n4dir: It's probably worth your while getting familiar with fdisk or gdisk, and the very usable cfdisk and cgdisk variants. | 16:53 |
fsmithred | with su, you don't get root's path | 16:53 |
fsmithred | echo "ALWAYS_SET_PATH yes" >> /etc/default/su | 16:53 |
n4dir | i used full path | 16:53 |
mason | (technically an SU'd user can set DISPLAY=:0.0 or similar to do it) | 16:53 |
fsmithred | and you get the old behavior | 16:53 |
n4dir | fsmithred: you sure you can then start an X program as root? | 16:54 |
fsmithred | yes | 16:54 |
fsmithred | that's how I've been doing it | 16:54 |
n4dir | oh, you can. | 16:54 |
fsmithred | other way is to export PATH from basrc and add the sbins | 16:54 |
n4dir | cool bean | 16:54 |
n4dir | perhaps the hard-disk is dying ... | 16:55 |
fsmithred | yikes | 16:55 |
fsmithred | smartctl -a | 16:55 |
n4dir | serves me right for wanting to quickly backup this devuan install before i screw it ... | 16:56 |
n4dir | due to that librazik repo. Else i had no doubts | 16:56 |
n4dir | ta-da. | 16:56 |
n4dir | setting root PATH with the command, exit root, su again, gparted has filesystems now. | 16:56 |
n4dir | Oh my. Thanks to all, sorry for the noise | 16:56 |
fsmithred | oh, cool | 16:56 |
n4dir | miss the times when you quickly could do such ... | 16:57 |
fsmithred | the changes in su are biting almost everyone in the ass | 16:57 |
n4dir | ./configure; make; make install; That one i really love | 16:57 |
n4dir | also downloading *debs to users Download and then cd-ing back and forth | 16:58 |
n4dir | btw, fsmithred i told the dev of librazik that i give librazik with devuan a try, and he liked the idea | 16:58 |
n4dir | also said if i run in problems he might try to get them sorted. | 16:59 |
fsmithred | cool | 16:59 |
n4dir | as of now i like that idea most of all: devuan and librazik (instead of buntustudio or same but with debian) | 17:00 |
fsmithred | devuzik | 17:03 |
n4dir | ha ha. There is that audio distro based on devuan, forgot the name. | 17:03 |
fsmithred | avmultimedia and virage are the two I know about | 17:04 |
n4dir | virage i think | 17:04 |
brocashelm | and virage uses testing instead of stable IIRC | 17:15 |
fsmithred | I have a virage-ascii and virage-beowulf iso | 17:19 |
n4dir | i only had a very quick glance | 17:19 |
fsmithred | 3.1 | 17:19 |
fsmithred | on the beowulf | 17:20 |
fsmithred | I don't know if there's a chimaera iso | 17:20 |
fsmithred | virage is made with refractasnapshot. AVMultimedia is completely different and doesn't use the debian live-* tools. | 17:21 |
fsmithred | pretty sure it uses multiple overlays, and there are ways to boot it with different setups | 17:22 |
brocashelm | i had hoped virage would convince a friend of mine who just got off mint and is now using manjaro to do his music recording and gaming | 17:24 |
n4dir | from what i was told arch(based) has an impressive amount of audio apps too (pro-tools or pro-audio or such) | 17:42 |
n4dir | but: Arch !!! (shivers ...) | 17:43 |
slitt_ | I need an OS that works, but without being ancient. Which Devuan should I use? | 19:59 |
slitt__ | Which is best version of Devuan to use for daily production? | 20:03 |
debdog | define 'ancient' :) | 20:03 |
debdog | Beowulf | 20:03 |
slitt__ | Is Beowulf the newest? | 20:03 |
debdog | the latest stable, yes | 20:04 |
debdog | there's also testing, but IDK how stable it is right now | 20:04 |
slitt__ | If I go to devuan.org, is it obvious where to download Beowulf? | 20:04 |
debdog | if you need newer stuff | 20:04 |
debdog | there's a big green button namend Download on the upper right corner | 20:05 |
slitt__ | Also, does Beowulf have claws-mail? | 20:05 |
slitt__ | LOL, cool! | 20:05 |
fsmithred | yes to claws. Devuan has almost everything that debian has. We're missing systemd. | 20:06 |
slitt__ | Oh, but I really wanted systemd :-( | 20:06 |
debdog | hehe | 20:06 |
fsmithred | you can get devuan with systemd | 20:06 |
fsmithred | at www.debian.org | 20:07 |
slitt__ | Been there, done that. | 20:07 |
slitt__ | fsmithred: I need to dual boot my new devuan with my old Void. what should I do? | 20:07 |
slitt__ | I haven't dual booted in years. | 20:07 |
fsmithred | if you're booting with grub, you can either let devuan install grub again and take control or else don't let devuan install bootloader and set up void to boot devuan. | 20:08 |
fsmithred | to avoid installing bootloader, you must select expert install | 20:08 |
slitt__ | U think Devuan will find the Void? | 20:09 |
fsmithred | yes, unless the root partition is encrypted | 20:09 |
fsmithred | os-prober will find it | 20:09 |
fsmithred | but either way is good | 20:09 |
slitt__ | U familiar with irssi? | 20:09 |
fsmithred | expert install isn't much different from regular. You get a few more questions and if you don't knw the answer, take the default. | 20:10 |
fsmithred | I know what irssi is, I always have it installer, and I hardly ever use it. | 20:10 |
fsmithred | don't remember how to use it | 20:10 |
fsmithred | installer/installed | 20:10 |
slitt__ | Does anybody here know how to switch between channels in freenode when using irssi? | 20:11 |
slitt__ | Everything I've tried terminated irssi. | 20:11 |
slitt__ | I can't rtfm because I have no X and I don't want to rtfm with elinks. | 20:11 |
brocashelm | devuan chimaera/ceres is very stable if you ever need newer packages than beowulf | 20:13 |
debdog | alt-left / alt-right | 20:13 |
slitt__ | Thanks debdog, I'll try them. | 20:14 |
brocashelm | there are distros based on devuan for different use cases | 20:14 |
debdog | slitt__: or alt-X where X are numbers 0 to 9 and the upper line of letters of a qwerty keyboard up to o | 20:15 |
fsmithred | irssi.org looks good in lynx | 20:26 |
fsmithred | The status window is by default window number 1. To switch between windows in Irssi, use Alt-#, | 20:28 |
fsmithred | where # is 0-9. Windows start at number 1, and Alt-0 goes to window number 10. | 20:28 |
golinux | slitt__: Nice to see you here and wanting to install Devuan | 21:05 |
mason | or /window 2, /window 3, etc | 21:19 |
mason | or alt-a to move to the next "interesting" window | 21:19 |
n4dir | anyone has experience with installing mate as minimal as possible? | 22:10 |
mason | n4dir: apt install --no-install-recommends foo is the way to do that with most things. And in this case, maybe exploring mate-desktop-environment-core or mate-desktop might be useful. | 22:16 |
mason | ...rather than the full metapackage. | 22:16 |
mason | n4dir: That said, if you're after a minimal/lightweight environment, you can't beat a bare window manager. | 22:16 |
n4dir | i know, but i need mate for a certain purpose. | 22:17 |
n4dir | hence i only want to log into it to have a look, so as little as possible | 22:17 |
mason | So, for that, comparing what mate-desktop and mate-desktop-environment-core provide might be a good start. | 22:18 |
n4dir | yeah, looking at those, thanks | 22:18 |
mason | There might be another one that's better. Unsure. | 22:18 |
n4dir | looks good. But usually one problem leads to the next. Let me turn it round my head a bit | 22:19 |
mason | n4dir: Looks like mate-desktop-environment-core is the one you'd want | 22:21 |
n4dir | yeah, i think so too | 22:22 |
mason | apt --simulate --no-install-recommends install mate-desktop-environment-core | less | 22:22 |
n4dir | did that. | 22:22 |
mason | And, happily, it doesn't try to force in elogind. | 22:22 |
n4dir | i did an apt-cache search mate ; and --names-only before, searched the web too, but could not make any sense of it. mate*core looks like the one i would want | 22:22 |
n4dir | as far DE's are concerned i'd say xfce is a good choice, if you want something small (but, as said; here i have a certain purpose which simply requires mate) | 22:23 |
mason | Yeah, I put my family on XFCE. It's reasonable. | 22:24 |
n4dir | yup. Works kinda out of box, intuitive. | 22:24 |
brocashelm | xfce is very lightweight and can be made into a beast | 22:35 |
SuaveDandy | So let me clarify. | 22:43 |
SuaveDandy | You format a partition with BtrFS. | 22:43 |
SuaveDandy | You create the subvolume. | 22:43 |
SuaveDandy | And then you unmount and install Debian on the BtrFS partition as you would install on any partition. | 22:44 |
SuaveDandy | And does BtrFS require the latest kernel on Devuan? | 22:54 |
fsmithred | SuaveDandy, no (to the last question) | 22:55 |
fsmithred | which installer are you planning to use? | 22:56 |
SuaveDandy | Yours. | 22:56 |
fsmithred | yeah, I'm looking at an old thread now. I don't recall what I did. | 22:59 |
fsmithred | https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=3258 | 23:00 |
fsmithred | This one looks good, too: https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=2175 | 23:01 |
hagbard_ | I whish the installer would support f2fs. | 23:03 |
golinux | hagbard_: Feel free to make it happen by doing it! | 23:14 |
fsmithred | hagbard_, I think you could probably use f2fs with some non-standard use of the installer. See the btrfs threads I linked above. Similar might work with f2fs. | 23:47 |
fsmithred | in fact, if your device gets named /dev/sd* or /dev/mmc* even the graphical live-installer will work. | 23:48 |
fsmithred | just pre-format and set the installer not to format your partitions. | 23:49 |
hagbard_ | I did backup the install, booted a live system, reformatted the / dm_crypt partition from ext4 to f2fs, and put the backup back. | 23:50 |
fsmithred | cool. | 23:50 |
fsmithred | what I suggested above becomes more complicated if you use encryption | 23:52 |
fsmithred | ie. just about the same as what you did | 23:52 |
