| Martin Kuhn | Does anyone know if colmena currently works with disko for an initial install? Got a few pi's I need to install manually :( | 07:20:20 |
 craige | I don't know but I normally build an SD image from my configs, write it SD and plug that in as my initial deployment. | 21:45:16 |

 dantefromhell | i'm doing initial installs of rpis with nixos-anywhere because of its disko integration. Not sure if/how one implement that in colmena - nixos-anywhere runs the whole partitioning -> formatting FSs -> install OS via a shell script on the destination | 01:14:00 |

 ser(ial) | why colmena does not have an option to delete old garbage? | 04:37:03 |
 Dennis Stengele | I have just configured automatic gc in the default node config: | 13:00:29 |

| ser(ial) | But i don't want to have it automatic as I use colmena to manage the servers | 02:38:34 |
| ser(ial) | I can imagine for example a colmena switch about how many previous versions should be kept | 02:39:43 |

 pgibson | ser(ial): use +5 instead of 30d to keep 5 generations https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.18/command-ref/nix-env/delete-generations#generations-time | 07:23:28 |
| pgibson | according to https://www.reddit.com/r/NixOS/comments/16tpwb3/comment/k2jkajz/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button | 07:24:11 |
| ser(ial) | You mean writing another script aside from colmena? | 07:25:44 |
| pgibson | No just configure gc on the host | 07:26:32 |
| pgibson | Maybe I misunderstood your question | 07:26:59 |
| ser(ial) | In that way I need to know if closure was successful before deployment | 07:31:37 |
| ser(ial) | Which is not easy to forecast | 07:31:51 |
| pgibson | Understood, yes not exactly ideal | 07:33:10 |

ser(ial): use +5 instead of 30d to keep 5 generations https://nix.dev/manual/nix/2.18/command-ref/nix-env/delete-generations#generations-time Is there a way to define last booted instead?
The last 5 might work against you if you happen to have multiple generations that include errors in a row. | 02:48:28 |
| ser(ial) | I am strongly against automation in upgrades or generations tinkering, i cannot imagine trusting some robot doing that job when i sleep | 02:50:55 |
