@zsuper:matrix.orgzsuper ahh, this was the table i needed: https://askubuntu.com/questions/703443/gdisk-hex-codes
up until now the terms ESP, EF00, EF02 were completely random to me, but now I understand that ESP stands for EFI System Partition and the latter 2 are hex codes that Gdisk uses, which implies that disko likely uses Gdisk under the hood, right?

@zsuper:matrix.orgzsuperthis is actually super cool, i can definitely see why I should read into this stuff before jumping directly into disko. great tool!01:45:35

https://github.com/nix-community/disko/issues/678 is what I'm referring to

Hi, I just noticed that with luks disko isn't checking if the passwords are the same and is using the first entered one, without notifying you that the entered passwords aren't matching. Maybe I've missed something, but is it a bug or a feature?

nix run github:nix-community/disko/latest -- --mode zap_create_mount disko.cnf

        luks = {
          size = "100%";
          content = {
            type = "luks";
            name = "crypted";
            settings = {
              allowDiscards = true;
            };

@eason20000:matrix.orgEason20000I found a way to solve this problem. But I do little programming.16:55:33
@eason20000:matrix.orgEason20000I posted it in the issue i had created before16:56:01
@eason20000:matrix.orgEason20000Can anyone check and fix it?16:56:28

@eason20000:matrix.orgEason20000I'm don't know much about programming and I'm still on LiveCD now. So is there anyone can help me to merge (if it's called so) this pull request?17:33:16
@tumble1999:matrix.orgTumbleCan I mount sftp and SMB in disko?21:36:08
@notahacker666:matrix.org@notahacker666:matrix.org Could be critical in some scenarios, lassulus should merge it asap 23:53:04
