 francesco | I'm wondering if it would make sense to implement fileSystem.<name>.depends also from within disko? By doing so, disko can use this information for ordering, as well as populate the entry in nixos. Alternatively, adapt disko to do something similar to what nixos does without extra config (figure out fs dependencies automatically, by looking at their mountpoints) | 12:12:52 |
 shelvacu | that would be neat imo | 12:13:31 |
| francesco | I just opened two PRs about the above:
- https://github.com/nix-community/disko/pull/1056
- https://github.com/nix-community/disko/pull/1057

| Fynn | Hi! I'm currently trying to set up a machine with encrypted ZFS on root following the example:
https://github.com/nix-community/disko/blob/master/example/zfs-encrypted-root.nix
Now I am a bit confused on how I can set the encryption passphrase, since I am not prompted during the disko run. There is keylocation commented out in the file, can I use the for the nixos installer and switch to the prompt afterward? | 16:35:33 |
| Fynn | Alright turns out it does prompt, but to encrypt the pool I have to use rootFsOptions instead of options :) | 16:49:47 |

Alright turns out it does prompt, but to encrypt the pool I have to use rootFsOptions instead of options :) im surprised it doesn't error the other way around. it should tell you encryption is an invalid pool option, or similar | 04:20:47 |
| Fynn | I only saw, that it was not able to mount the datasets. When I changed the keylocation to a file, it said that it was an invalid option. Could be that I overlooked it on the first run though. | 07:39:52 |
 @musicmatze:beyermatthi.as | Is Disko able to add to my existing zfs datasets? | 18:16:57 |
| @musicmatze:beyermatthi.as | So if I create a new dataset in the config, will it generate it upon nixos-rebuild? | 18:17:19 |
 Sandro 🐧 | I don't think so | 18:25:38 |
| Sandro 🐧 | at least I have been always manually reconciling that | 18:25:43 |
 lassulus | theoretically you can run the format part of the script again | 19:22:28 |
| lassulus | but better check what it would run beforehand :) | 19:22:37 |
| @musicmatze:beyermatthi.as | So if I add Disko as a module to my configuration, and add another dataset there, it does not get automatically created?
What is the expected way to do it then? Create the dataset by hand and then add it to fileSystems? | 19:24:52 |
| lassulus | no, add it to the disko config and either create it manually or run what is in config.system.build.format | 19:27:22 |
| @musicmatze:beyermatthi.as | That sounds much better 😉 | 19:30:47 |
