 @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Not exactly so we'd have to also set it up separately in initrd before luks devices start coming online. | 02:47:23 |

Not exactly so we'd have to also set it up separately in initrd before luks devices start coming online. mounting another tmpfs just for this seems not convincing | 03:44:41 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | i mean it's the same tmpfs | 03:45:08 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | /run is the same from before anything starts in stage 1 all the way to the very end of shutdown | 03:45:33 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | well, systemd starts as pid 1 in stage 1 and mounts /run, /dev, /proc, and /sys before starting anything | 03:45:58 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | but yea we would have to do the setup twice, once in stage 1 and once in stage 2 | 03:46:32 |
 @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | But who populates /run in stage 1? | 08:15:46 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | We're about to rebuild the activation script from stage 2 here | 08:16:25 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | Janne Heß: It'd just have to be a service with Before=cryptsetup-pre.target | 08:16:35 |

We're about to rebuild the activation script from stage 2 here (as a brief aside, arguably stage 1 and stage 2 should actually be almost the same infrastructure, and it should simply be possible to make a NixOS config that's as stripped down as stage 1 needs to be) | 08:17:56 |

 K900 | Now that I think about it, I wonder if we could do a crime on WSL | 08:20:06 |
| K900 | And basically have initrd-as-root | 08:20:14 |
| K900 | And reuse all the systemd-in-stage1 stuff | 08:20:30 |
| K900 | For context, the latest WSL update added native systemd-as-PID1 support | 08:20:56 |
| K900 | But it doesn't have a good way to run the activation scripts | 08:21:09 |
| @janne.hess:helsinki-systems.de | Maybe a question for #wsl:nixos.org ? | 08:21:42 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I believe I've mentioned before that my zeroth attempt at systemd in stage 1 was literally just doing a nested nixos eval with lots of hacks stripping things out and then putting that in an initrd :P | 08:21:47 |
 @arianvp:matrix.org | Happy to commit crimes on WSL | 08:21:54 |
