if you open nix repl ~/Code/nixcfg then type in nixosConfigurations.msi-linux.config.system.build.toplevel | 03:13:26 | |
| what happens? | 03:13:34 | |
| Says it's missing. I must have a typo in my root flake? Looking | 03:15:22 | |
| Ugh, I put the host config one level too high in the scope. Surprised the it didn't cause problems when I tried building other machines that are also defined in the flake | 03:16:51 | |
| thank you! | 03:16:52 | |
| I need to get more familiar with using the repl | 03:17:13 | |
Ok, another question, so I installed to a second drive. The first drive has windows. I'm going to change the boot order so that the linux drive is first. The problem is that it didn't register the drive with the boot manager. I had to manually run efibootmgr -c etc etc etc. Is there a way to make sure the second drive gets registered with the boot manager? | 04:42:45 | |
| Though actually, it's still not showing up in the BIOS boot options. Guess that wasn't enough | 04:44:01 | |
| I'm guessing some extra config is necessary to get it to install a fully bootable system on a second drive? | 04:44:25 | |
| Figured it out, should use systemd rather than grub | 05:00:08 | |
| the nix wiki on dual boot seems to be out of date | 05:00:27 | |
In reply to @erahhal:homefree.hostbut... the wiki tells you to use systemd? | 05:42:29 | |
| what part of it is outdated? | 05:42:45 | |
| You know what, my reading comprehension sucks. | 05:43:17 | |
| nevermind | 05:43:18 | |
| it does specifically mention to use systemd if using multiple disks | 05:43:27 | |
| 05:44:02 | |

sounds like it's the same disk to me | 05:44:09 | |
| oh, wait, are you looking at nixos.wiki? | 05:47:41 | |
| That's an old, unofficial wiki. The actual wiki is under nixos.org: https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Dual_Booting_NixOS_and_Windows | 05:48:00 | |

| I'm getting a stage2 init script not found (impermanence/disko) any ideas? | 16:12:41 | |
| Here's the disk configs if anyone is willing to take a look. https://warez.kernelpanic.cafe/Code/impermanence.nix.txt https://warez.kernelpanic.cafe/Code/disko.nix.txt | 16:13:03 | |

| Hello. I'm currently working on improving disko's support for bcachefs. So far, I have made a PR to add encryption support. Currently, I am working on adding subvolume support. However, I am having trouble getting this to work. This is the output when I run I suspect that a reason that this could happening might be due the order in which mountpoints are mounted. My theory is that descendant mountpoints (e.g., /ancestor/descendant) could be being mounted before ancestor mountpoints (e.g., /ancestor) have been created/mounted. Does disko mount filesystems such that ancestor mountpoints are mounted before descendants, or is this behaviour dependent on how the I have tried to debug my implementation using
In fact, it shows that same Is there another way I can go about debugging this? | 10:47:05 | |
| Hey! I was working on adding advanced options for Bcachefs a few months ago. May want to poke around here: https://github.com/nix-community/disko/pull/961 There are some current gotchas that cause some of the issues you are facing. Using the bcachesfs fs formatter is limited which is why I went the route of creating a custom type similar to mdadm and zfs. There are some systemd bugs that prevent the FS ground getting mounted properly/consistently during reboots | 12:45:51 | |
