| ted-ious | Are there any possible tricks for installing vim without all the add-on stuff like ruby or lua? | 18:57 |
| ted-ious | I just want the old style vim with basic syntax highlighting. | 18:57 |
| ted-ious | Installing vim-nox used to do that but now it wants to install 2 dozen packages including ruby. | 18:58 |
| mason | ted-ious: --no-recommends ? | 19:00 |
| mason | Sorry, --no-install-recommends | 19:00 |
| ted-ious | Oh you're right I think I had that configured automatically but I forgot to back up that file. | 19:00 |
| ted-ious | Hmm that doesn't affect vim-nox very much. | 19:02 |
| ted-ious | It does manage to avoid x11-common and xclip for neovim though. | 19:02 |
| ted-ious | Now there's no grub after my second reboot? | 19:11 |
| ted-ious | How does apt upgrade make grub stop working? | 19:12 |
| APic | lol | 19:12 |
| mason | UEFI or legacy? If UEFI, make sure the uuid in the ESP grub config points to your actual /boot | 19:16 |
| ted-ious | It's bios. | 19:16 |
| mason | ted-ious: Also, if you're on ZFS, which I believe you are, maybe describe your /boot so we can be more detailed. | 19:16 |
| ted-ious | I'm not on zfs yet since the last install failed so badly and I'm reinstalling. | 19:17 |
| ted-ious | And /boot is just sda1. | 19:17 |
| ted-ious | I'm putting a base system on sda2 and making sure everything works before I install zfs onto sda3. | 19:18 |
| rwp | I know there are people who hate on having a swap partition but I would strongly recommend having at least a small swap partition in there too. | 19:26 |
| rwp | Regardless of anything do NOT put a swap file on the ZFS file system. Since ZFS also needs memory it leads to a memory lockup possibility under memory stress. | 19:26 |
| rwp | But anyway if you have /boot on sda1 with Legacy BIOS boot then that is the simple straight path and I can't think of any reason grub would be having difficulties there. | 19:28 |
| rwp | What's your partition type? GPT? If so then that requires a partition to hold the stage loaders. Because there is no empty space to sneak into like on MBR partitions. | 19:28 |
| ted-ious | I'm very familiar with the swapfile problem and recommendation. :) | 19:39 |
| ted-ious | sda2 will be a real swap partition when I'm done. | 19:39 |
