@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusdisks don't have uuids, just ids, you can try booting a live iso on the machine or run only the kexec phase of nixos-anywhere (although you need to run with another key in that case)21:30:38
@nemnix:matrix.org@nemnix:matrix.orgI'm have a booted a live iso into the machine, what should I do now ?21:31:24
@nemnix:matrix.org@nemnix:matrix.org* I'm have booted a live iso into the machine, what should I do now ?21:32:01
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusls -la /dev/disk/by-id21:33:33
@nemnix:matrix.org@nemnix:matrix.organd copy the value or all the path ?21:34:04
@lassulus:lassul.uslassuluschoose one path that points to something like /dev/nvme0n1 or /dev/sda or /dev/vda21:34:42
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulus so you can put something like disk = "/dev/disk/by-id/nvme-WD_BLACK_SN770_2TB_23091X804020"; into your disko config 21:35:24
@nemnix:matrix.org@nemnix:matrix.orgOkay I'll try in bare metal21:36:06
@projectinitiative:matrix.orgprojectinitiativeTotally missed these, life's been pretty hectic these past few weeks, but glad to see the work being pushed forward! 21:46:40

@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧Why does the gpt type no longer allow referencing disks by-id?23:45:00
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧I have some existing machines with existing formats and they all don't have partlabel set and adding UUIDs by hand sounds awefull23:45:26
10 May 2025
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusYou mean uuids for partitions? Otherwise you need to set the device in the disk type?03:41:39
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧Yep12:20:05
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧I have some disks formatted as mbdos/bios/whatever, not gpt12:20:49
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧 And I kinda want to convert to the newer settings format to get rid of the warnings 12:21:06
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧But I can't really12:21:10
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧Because I can no longer reference disks by part-id which is the only predictable name when you are not on gpt12:21:37
@sandro:supersandro.deSandro 🐧And partlabel only exists for gpt disks12:21:46
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusyou can override device on each partition12:45:54

Hello everyone, I'm encountering an issue with disko installation. When trying to run this command on my new machine, I get the following error after some time:

copying path '/nix/store/ccfwxygjrarahgfv5865x2f828sjr5h0-source' from 'https://cache.nixos.org'...

       error: writing to file: No space left on device
error: Recipe `install` failed on line 2 with exit code 1

I've tried switching to disko-install with this command:

 nix --experimental-features "nix-command flakes" run 'github:nix-community/disko/latest#disko-insta
ll' -- --flake .#server --disk main /dev/sda

But the issue persists.

i have confirmed that my machine have enough RAM and storage space.

@noneyescat:matrix.orgmomoIf I recall correctly, this command used to work properly six months ago. So I'm not entirely sure if there have been any changes to the options that might be causing this issue :(16:08:05
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulushmm, it looks like a nixpkgs bug16:44:06
