 @aktaboot:tchncs.de | I could not find where printing the <<< NixOS Stage 1 >>> string happens 🤔 | 14:20:19 |
 @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I think that's just in stage-1-init.sh isn't it? Which is only for the scripted initrd, not systemd initrd | 14:20:52 |
| @aktaboot:tchncs.de | yep thanks :)\ | 14:21:36 |
| @aktaboot:tchncs.de | * yep thanks :) | 14:21:38 |
| @aktaboot:tchncs.de | huh, I thought that that would be /init in the initrd | 14:22:43 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | aktaboot: It is | 14:25:50 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | for scripted initrd anyway | 14:26:08 |
| @aktaboot:tchncs.de | so there are 2 initrds in the boot process ?
in my boot entry, the init script is the one that prints <<< NixOS Stage 2 >>> so that got me confused | 14:29:42 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | aktaboot: We have two completely independent implementations of stage 1. Which one your system uses depends on if you've set boot.initrd.systemd.enable = true; | 14:30:42 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | The old one is what I call the "scripted initrd", and the new one is "systemd initrd" | 14:30:56 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | systemd initrd is opt-in | 14:31:01 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | and does not use a lot of stuff from scripted initrd, like stage-1-init.sh | 14:31:12 |

| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Lily Foster Arian We should probably get this in as quickly as possible | 14:31:58 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | We can do the right fixes next | 14:32:07 |
| @aktaboot:tchncs.de | I see, thanks, so that means the systemd initrd does not print <<< NixOS Stage 1 >>> ? | 14:32:11 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | right | 14:32:18 |
| @aktaboot:tchncs.de | okay that was my confusion, thanks :) | 14:32:34 |

| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | In case anyone wants to help me hunt down potential things that break the assertions | 15:06:19 |
|  @jaredbaur:matrix.org joined the room. | 21:02:05 |

| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Hm plymouith seems to be adding about 6 seconds to my initrd boot time. | 07:50:29 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | The initrd systemd unit that imports my ZFS pool is basically instant, taking only as long as it takes to enter the password. But that import service takes about 6 seconds longer with plymouth, and it seems to take those 6 seconds for the password prompt to appear at all | 07:50:56 |

 @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | Wouldn't be surprised after looking at some Plymouth code. Their design doesn't seem to be optimal or even good | 09:08:33 |
