@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.org Emil Thorsøe: hm? Why nfs? 07:19:43
@jkarlson:kapsi.fi@jkarlson:kapsi.fiit decouples the processes from internal filesystem state07:20:03
@jkarlson:kapsi.fi@jkarlson:kapsi.fiso filesystem could be effectively unmounted in any way that could cause corruption07:20:40
@jkarlson:kapsi.fi@jkarlson:kapsi.finote that such code is not really implemented, maybe autofs07:20:57
@jkarlson:kapsi.fi@jkarlson:kapsi.fiI guess filesystemd could be written in a way that adds a nfs wrapper or libc 07:26:34

@lily:lily.flowers@lily:lily.flowers Is systemd-initrd not working with installer ISOs a known problem? It seems that they set root= on the kernel cmdline to the device label which contains the squashfs, but that doesn't play well with the tmpfs / filesystem defined in the fstab (and the fstab entry ends up getting ignored in favor of the cmdline root=, which is obviously wrong in this case) 03:02:21
@lily:lily.flowers@lily:lily.flowers(to be clear, the NixOS installer tests pass fine in the test framework, but those don't have to do the ISO trickery)03:02:53
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgYea that's known but not well explored.03:02:59
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgWe've known the isos don't work all along but I don't think anyone's really investigated it03:03:17
@lily:lily.flowers@lily:lily.flowersHmm, I may look for a solution at some point then03:03:36
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgThat would be wonderful03:03:45
