lassulus | yeah so I guess it's the kexec environment which has that label? | 21:23:52 |
lassulus | or the live iso, if you install into an installer | 21:24:10 |
@nemnix:matrix.org | I don't know—I'm clueless and a bit tired of this. I tried bare metal and VM, same result | 21:24:27 |
lassulus | well just look into /dev/disk/by-id and take a device from there and put that into the value of disk | 21:26:09 |
@nemnix:matrix.org | Okay, let's try again | 21:26:57 |
@nemnix:matrix.org | But how can I get the uuid of fresh new disk ? | 21:29:10 |
lassulus | disks 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 | I'm have a booted a live iso into the machine, what should I do now ? | 21:31:24 |
@nemnix:matrix.org | * I'm have booted a live iso into the machine, what should I do now ? | 21:32:01 |
lassulus | ls -la /dev/disk/by-id | 21:33:33 |
@nemnix:matrix.org | and copy the value or all the path ? | 21:34:04 |
lassulus | choose one path that points to something like /dev/nvme0n1 or /dev/sda or /dev/vda | 21:34:42 |
lassulus | 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 | Okay I'll try in bare metal | 21:36:06 |
projectinitiative | Totally missed these, life's been pretty hectic these past few weeks, but glad to see the work being pushed forward! | 21:46:40 |

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