 maralorn | Well, in my old disko files which I used the last time to mount my disk. | 22:43:21 |
| maralorn | * Well, in my old disko files which I used the last time to format my disk. | 22:43:39 |
| maralorn | I have learned by now that things work differently now. | 22:43:52 |
| maralorn | It’s kinda unclear to me why that didn’t break when disko changed the options. | 22:44:38 |
| maralorn | Oh, wait. | 22:45:05 |
| maralorn | THere is type = "table" and type = "gpt" | 22:45:19 |
| maralorn | THat’s my confusion. | 22:45:26 |

 lassulus | Ah yeah the table type was a mistake and people probably shouldn't use that anymore. I still have to add a warning to it if people still use it | 01:46:31 |

 palo | Hmm, this worked a while ago, and it's used in the examples?

| palo | * Hmm, this worked a while ago, and it's used in the examples?
error: The option `disko.devices.disk.sda.content.partitions."[definition 1-entry 2]".size' does not exist.
| 20:30:57 |
| palo | https://git.ingolf-wagner.de/palo/nixos-config/src/branch/main/nixos/machines/orbi/disko-config.nix#L42 < that's the line that is wrong. | 20:32:13 |
| palo | Hmm in the examples partitions is a attrs but When I do that. I get :
A definition for option `disko.devices.disk.sda.content.partitions' is not of type `list of (submodule)'.
| 20:46:01 |
| palo | Ok replacing size with end worked. | 20:54:56 |

 matthewcroughan | lassulus: To explain the problem I found with hybrid, and why legacy is worth supporting, doing hybrid causes small issues with u-boot | 04:53:23 |
| matthewcroughan | specifically, if you have a hybrid data structure, it loads u-boot in GPT mode | 04:53:37 |
| matthewcroughan | in GPT mode, the MBR partitions cannot be seen | 04:53:44 |
| lassulus | that sounds like the intended use? | 04:53:58 |
| matthewcroughan | Sort of a problem with U-Boot, and it can be worked around, but it's such a PITA | 04:54:03 |
| lassulus | whats the issue with that? | 04:54:04 |
| matthewcroughan | I suppose nothing if you know the solution, it's discovering the solution that is why it's worth supporting legacy | 04:54:19 |
| matthewcroughan | but yeah, if we can be a leading example of the solutions, then that works best | 04:54:49 |
| matthewcroughan | Okay.. other things.. How about we try to make the image builder use binfmt inside the VM, so that we can build disk images for arm64 on an x86 host successfully? :D | 04:55:19 |
| lassulus | but hybrid gpt/mbr is only useful if you bootloader doesn't support gpt. and there is a fallback to mbr. but if uboot supports efi than it doesn't need to care for the mbr stuff? | 04:55:56 |
| lassulus | we should debug first where all the memory is eaten up :P | 04:56:16 |
| matthewcroughan | lol, zram also "fixes" that :D | 04:56:29 |
| lassulus | pff | 04:56:34 |
| matthewcroughan | it works, undeniably | 04:56:41 |
