 caraiiwala | Definitely spend some time watching YouTube videos or something to understand filesystem formatting and disk partitioning. I think disko rightfully leaves the understanding of these concepts up to the user. With a solid foundation, the disko model is very clear imo | 21:57:06 |

 zsuper | 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? | 01:44:50 |
| zsuper | this 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 This should be fixed in the current master | 06:26:03 |

| @notahacker666:matrix.org | 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;
};
| 07:53:35 |
| lassulus | hmm, sounds like a bug | 08:16:21 |
|  Eason20000 joined the room. | 10:15:14 |
| Eason20000 | Yeah, I opened an issue on Github (https://github.com/nix-community/disko/issues/1102), can anyone fix this? | 10:15:59 |
| matthewcroughan changed their display name from matthewcroughan to matthewcroughan @ WHY2025 (DECT: 8793). | 11:34:28 |
| Eason20000 | I found a way to solve this problem. But I do little programming. | 16:55:33 |
| Eason20000 | I posted it in the issue i had created before | 16:56:01 |
| Eason20000 | Can anyone check and fix it? | 16:56:28 |
| Eason20000 | Pull request created: https://github.com/nix-community/disko/pull/1103 | 17:29:44 |
| Eason20000 | I'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 |
 Tumble | Can I mount sftp and SMB in disko? | 21:36:08 |
| @notahacker666:matrix.org | Could be critical in some scenarios, lassulus should merge it asap | 23:53:04 |
