 @realhotgirlshit:envs.net | Now I probably just have to load a kernel module | 09:18:23 |
|  mkg20001 joined the room. | 14:15:25 |
|  musjj joined the room. | 14:43:05 |
| musjj | Does it make sense to add additional fileSystems attribute for drives I don't want disko to manage/format like:
disko.devices.disk.main = { ... };
fileSystems = { ... };
Will this work correctly?
| 14:44:29 |
| musjj | To clarify the filesystems I want to add lives on a different block device from disko's main disk. | 14:53:15 |
 robsliwi | Why even bother adding them to disko at all? | 14:56:36 |
| mkg20001 | grub = {
efiSupport = true;
#efiInstallAsRemovable = true; # in case canTouchEfiVariables doesn't work for your system
device = "nodev";
};
from here: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Bootloader
| 14:58:39 |
| mkg20001 | you need boot.loader.grub.device = "nodev"; when you have uefi+grub | 14:58:55 |
| musjj | I'm not adding them to disko, but directly to NixOS's fileSystems option | 15:02:36 |
| musjj | Like, I have two devices, one for my OS and the other is just for my old data storage. I want disko to format and manage only the OS device and let NixOS normally mount the data storage device. | 15:04:10 |
 parismagpie | Hi ! So i'm trying to use disko to generate both a vm image and a raw image. It works, but the thing is I want to put secrets on some ext4 partition mounted over /etc/secrets. For the raw image, no problem. | 16:19:51 |
| parismagpie | For the VM image, I use virtualisation.vmVariantWithDisko.sharedDirectories to avoid putting secrets into the nix store (it works nicely with a classical vm) | 16:20:29 |
| parismagpie | But with disko, i'm getting some error :
error: The option `virtualisation.vmVariantWithDisko.virtualisation.fileSystems."/etc/secrets".fsType' has conflicting definition values:
- In `/nix/store/hzaj4d6ari2wq2cbg1j60n9zw42gnshy-source/nixos/modules/virtualisation/qemu-vm.nix': "9p"
- In `/nix/store/7wf9q0mb1i43x9dr1qlyfaraq15n6sii-source/lib/interactive-vm.nix': "ext4"
Use `lib.mkForce value` or `lib.mkDefault value` to change the priority on any of these definitions.
I believe this is because the disko vm image actually respects my partitions formats, but that's a bit of a problem for my specific usecase. I can remove the /etc/secrets partition definition in disko, and it works, but do I have any other option ?
