| Alison Jenkins | Just got there (read it out of your screenshot) | 16:24:27 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | ah 😅 | 16:24:55 |
| Alison Jenkins | Sylvie (any) 🏳️⚧️: spotted something for you to try... | 16:30:19 |
| Alison Jenkins | https://github.com/alisonjenkins/nix-config/blob/main/hosts/ali-framework-laptop/disk-config.nix#L15-L23 | 16:30:21 |
| Alison Jenkins | https://github.com/Karpador-xyz/serverConfig/blob/main/boop/disko.nix#L13-L20 | 16:30:26 |
| Alison Jenkins | note there is something mine has your's doesn't | 16:30:36 |
| Alison Jenkins | the mountpoint | 16:30:42 |
| Alison Jenkins | * note there is something mine has yours doesn't | 16:30:53 |
| Alison Jenkins | could be that that is upsetting it | 16:31:11 |
| Alison Jenkins | try set that on yours | 16:31:18 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | mine sets up mdraid | 16:31:26 |
| Alison Jenkins | * try set that on yours and see if it improves things | 16:31:29 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | the mountpoint is defined further down | 16:31:32 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | see also: https://github.com/nix-community/disko/blob/master/example/boot-raid1.nix | 16:31:42 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | I already have a commit ready to just stop mirroring the efi partition for now 😅 | 16:32:25 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | it doesn't seem worth it | 16:32:29 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | wait | 16:33:15 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | brain noises | 16:33:18 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | let me try something | 16:33:27 |
| Alison Jenkins | Sylvie (any) 🏳️⚧️: tbh probs isn't UEFI contents is easy to replace generally | 16:33:29 |
| Alison Jenkins | but going your route is good if a disk fails as less hassle to restore | 16:33:49 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | yeah that would be the point of having a mirror of the whole disk, including the efi partition | 16:35:19 |
| Alison Jenkins | yup | 16:35:44 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | I just had an idea, I'm gonna try that before I fully give up | 16:36:37 |
| Alison Jenkins | I don't see anything wrong with your disko config, but now I am curious how it is trying to identify the disk to pass efibootmgr | 16:37:31 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | unfortunately passing a bunch of -vvv doesn't seem to tell me | 16:46:04 |
| Sylvie (They/She) 🏳️⚧️ | my theory is that the thing that throws the config off is that I configure an mdraid but then only use a single disk | 16:47:23 |
