| @dantefromhell:matrix.org: is this where I added the change for swap? | 04:25:45 | |

In reply to @joerg:thalheim.ioyes. sorry for the mangled message, editor on the phone displays the code highlights properly, but f*** it up once I hit save/ send | 12:52:57 | |

I have a ZFS mirror running as root that was formatted with disko. If I replaced both drives one at a time (i.e. with zpool offline and zpool replace), would the initramfs know where to look to mount the root partition next time I boot? | 15:58:40 | |
in my disko config the drives are referred to as /dev/disk/by-id identifies, so I want to make sure that there is no hard-coded fstab entry or anything that uses those | 15:59:56 | |

| In a typical zfs setup, fstab doesn't reference the underlying devices but only the datasets (i.e. rpool/root, not /dev/disk/by-id/...) here. the initrd pretty much does a zpool import on boot, so you should be good after zpool replace. (but no warranty and all ;)) | 15:46:25 | |

| I see. So I understand that it works roughly like: ZFS scans all storage devices for zfs disks, and then makes the pools it finds available which can be referred to by name in the legacy mount scripts? | 15:48:01 | |
| Yes, exactly | 15:48:34 | |
| Had missed that one before: but that's exactly how it is. It should be safe to re-run but as the license says: this software comes without warranty of any kind. So better check your backups ;) | 15:51:09 | |
| Not a btrfs user myself, but the conflicting definitions do sound solvable. Do you have your config online somewhere? | 15:55:08 | |

Any opposition to renaming installTest to diskoInstallTest ? | 18:06:55 | |
or in putting disko attrs into a disko set? like system.config.build.disko.installTest? | 18:07:23 | |
It has always annoyed me when trying to find installTest, because I ignore this attribute believing it to be a nixpkgs one, not realising disko introduced it | 18:07:48 | |
| 18:36:34 | |
| Did not realise before that the disko script was not runnable | 18:36:41 | |

| Hi! I've used disko with nixos-anywhere on a few machines and now on a newer machine having some trouble. Not sure if I broken something in the config or something changed out since NixOS has been bumped since then. I'm seeing this error and no idea what it means:
Does it mean that it can't find the disk device so it's not able to build a script? Perhaps I've provided the wrong device? I triple checked it though and it seems to be correct. | 03:09:45 | |
if you open nix repl ~/Code/nixcfg then type in nixosConfigurations.msi-linux.config.system.build.toplevel | 03:13:26 | |
