@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan * There is rargs and fcp both written in rust 15:24:54
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughan * There is rargs and fcp or cn, both written in rust 15:25:08

@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanThere's also https://github.com/uutils/coreutils 15:27:50
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanIDK, I've played with 10,000+ arguments in xargs before, you run out of some limit like the stack size limit15:29:39
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanmaybe rsync is a better idea than cp?15:29:56
@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickensThat's what I was surprised at too, I'd expect to have hit max cmdline size with the args.15:30:05
@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickensMaybe?15:30:07
@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickensNot really on my list to dig into beyond maybe filing an issue.15:30:23
@matthewcroughan:defenestrate.itmatthewcroughanhard to say, but it's really good to find that this might be the place where the issue is occurring15:30:28
@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickensBTW, I gushed a bit in the ARM room, but disko is really nice, thanks y'all!15:30:39
@tumble1999:matrix.orgTumbleI wonder if I can happily forget fdisk now?15:42:26
@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickensI only had to use it to sanity check! :)15:57:23

@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️Hi all. I am using disko on the root disk on quite a few machines now and its worked well. I am wondering if after adding a separate 2g "data" disk I can add that to my disko config, and it will too get formatted as per the defn. Is that something that is supported? Thanks.13:59:36
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusyou would have to run disko manually for that to work, there should be support now for incremental updates, but that is very new and can cause data loss. so do that with care :) I can you can also just run the commands for the new disk manually by inspecting the generated script14:08:57
@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️I see, thanks for the quick response, just adding context in case it matters, I am using luks and btrfs for my main disk and have created the defn for luks and btrfs with one subvol /storage device in disko, but I am not sure if I am going to wipe out my main boot disk too 🙂14:19:46
@lassulus:lassul.uslassuluswell disko should not wipe it out, but better have backups ;)14:21:35
@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️lol, okay14:23:13
@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️so I can use --dry-run to just get the script it seems, but am I perhaps able to pull out just the storage defn in the flake and ignore the boot disk defn?14:24:06
@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️Does disko support 2 luks encrypted devices in the same config as nix is complaining of multiple luks device definitions ... back to the manual I guess 🙂14:30:08
@lassulus:lassul.uslassulusit should, but it needs different names14:30:46
@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️Apologies, rookie copy and paste error14:34:42
@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️I am using "passwordFile = "/tmp/secret.key";" and unlocking the root luks partition is interactive, but the second cryptstorage is not. it fails to find the partiton due to lack of password. Does the second luks device have to be defined differantly?15:05:31

@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️When I have the flake inputs.disko.nixosModules.disko defined in my machine config, is that purely for mounting the disks? It doesn't run any further formatting post initial installation?15:16:17
@mannp:mannuk.rocksmannp ⚡️seems its a pre install tool not post, unless I am missing something from the manual. Will go the manual formatting route. cheers15:36:06

@artur:glasgow.social(artur 'manuel) changed their display name from (lambda (u) (format nil "~A is not using Matrix right now." u)) "Artur Manuel" to (lambda (u) (format nil "~a ~a")) "Artur" "Manuel".01:48:49
