 @timdeh:matrix.org | do you happen to know if nixos-generators uses a newer kernel? | 06:43:56 |
 David Arnold (blaggacao) | In reply to @timdeh:matrix.org
do you happen to know if nixos-generators uses a newer kernel? It doesn't, bit it also doesn't use the "installer": https://www.github.com/nix-community/nixos-generators/tree/master/formats%2Fiso.nix | 06:45:20 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | đ¤ | 06:45:38 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | so what is the exact invocation for bootstrapIso? I tried bud build NixOS bootstrapIso | 06:46:06 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | And it doesn't work? đ§ | 06:48:16 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | ⯠bud build NixOS bootstrapIso
warning: Git tree '/home/nrd/git/github/divnix/dev' is dirty
error: flake 'git+file:///home/nrd/git/github/divnix/dev' does not provide attribute 'packages.x86_64-linux.nixosConfigurations."NixOS".config.system.build.bootstrapIso', 'legacyPackages.x86_64-linux.nixosConfigurations."NixOS".config.system.build.bootstrapIso' or 'nixosConfigurations."NixOS".config.system.build.bootstrapIso'

| @timdeh:matrix.org | I rebased on develop, maybe 4 days ago | 06:49:24 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | oh damn, even arch can't detect the drive đŠ | 06:49:41 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | but windows seems to have no problems with it âšī¸ | 06:49:48 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | Either you still have the typoed version boostrap or you need to add the digga.nixosModule.boostrapIso | 06:49:52 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | * Either you still have the typoed version `boostrapIso` or you need to add the `digga.nixosModule.boostrapIso` | 06:50:05 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | oops typo đ
| 06:50:13 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | guess I'll just have to buy a new drive đ | 06:50:35 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | nix flake lock --update-input digga should fix that. | 06:50:55 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | * `nix flake lock --update-input digga` should fix that typo | 06:51:03 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | or maybe windows has corrupted the drive beyond recognition for linux đ¤Ŗ | 06:52:42 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | Maybe https://www.github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/master/nixos%2Fmodules%2Fprofiles%2Fall-hardware.nix has some pointers? | 06:53:47 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | (which is not included in bud build iso) | 06:54:03 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | * (which is _not_ included in `bud build iso`) | 06:54:12 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | * (which is _not_ included in `bud build iso` - only in `boostrapIso`) | 06:54:41 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | * (which is _not_ included in `bud build iso` - only in `bootstrapIso`) | 06:56:15 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | Have to go fetch a bucket of sleep. đ | 06:58:03 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | * Have to go fetch a bucket of sleep. đ Let's continue the hunt tomorrow. | 06:59:06 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | I wonder if it's one of those strange vendors that provides out of tree linux drivers đ¤ | 18:10:25 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | guess I'm gonna have to boot windows to find out đ¤ĸ | 18:10:47 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | found the reason! It was the sata mode being set to raid instead of AHCI by default. Didn't catch it at first because the uefi firmware hides the setting behind a secret ctrl+s key combo that must be pressed to expose the option. That's pretty hilarious. So there is the basic bios, then the advanced menu, and apparently the super secret, must read the docs to know about it extra advanced menu đ¤Ŗ | 19:46:46 |
| @timdeh:matrix.org | by the way David Arnold, after fixing my typo bud build NixOS bootstrapIso still doesn't work đ | 19:57:03 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | It was my typo đ fixed in commit | 19:58:33 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | THere have been a few other relevant fixes: https://github.com/divnix/digga/commits/main/modules/bootstrap-iso.nix | 20:01:22 |
| David Arnold (blaggacao) | (I'm also currently trying to boostrap a new set of hosts) | 20:01:41 |
