| enyc | fsmithred: fwiw, i've generally seen dstros not supporting UEFI 32bit booting | 00:22 |
|---|---|---|
| enyc | fsmithred: its' usually CDrom/hdd BIOS-boot 32bit image, and cd/bios/uefi hybrid bootable 64bit image | 00:22 |
| Centurion_Dan | gnu_srs1: can you check if the udev initramfs top hook checks for and creates /run as it's needed for udev during init because with the 4.19 kernel LVM requires udev to be running and /run/udev to exist in order for root on LV and other initramfs mounted volumes to be mounted... | 00:44 |
| fsmithred | rrq, I put the 2.1 i386 netinstall on a usb and tried to boot it on my uefi laptop. It would not boot. | 04:24 |
| fsmithred | I'm going to sleep now. | 04:24 |
| rrq | fsmithred: I built OVMF-i386.fd for use with qemu-system-{i386,x86_64} to get uefi boot of the i386 iso | 12:59 |
| rrq | apparently UEFI comes in 32-bit and 64-bit flavours | 13:00 |
| fsmithred | OH! | 13:02 |
| rrq | though OVMF seems to require 1024x764@32 video so needs qxl | 13:02 |
| fsmithred | ok | 13:10 |
| fsmithred | have to go out soon, but I'll test it later this morning. | 13:14 |
| onefang | All the issues I had marked for the first release are now done. B-) | 15:59 |
| onefang | Though I still need to polish the documentation a bit, and maybe deal with a few more minor TODOs, | 16:00 |
| onefang | Of apt-panopticon, my mirror checker script. | 16:00 |
| fsmithred | rrq, It Works! 2.1 i386 netinstall iso boots 32-bit uefi in qemu with OVMF-i386.fd | 16:16 |
| onefang | Cool. | 16:16 |
| fsmithred | installing it now | 16:33 |
| fsmithred | that works, too. | 16:38 |
| fsmithred | ok, qemu is not entirely happy with it on rebooting the installed system. I have to go into Boot Maintenance and then Boot from file, and then drill down to grubia32.efi. Then it gives me the grub boot menu and boots properly. | 16:48 |
| fsmithred | :) ...and the desktop-live amd64 boots with 32-bit uefi (for all you old macbook pro owners) | 16:55 |
| fsmithred | bbl | 18:17 |
