| onefang | jaw: Has there been any progress on your mirror? You asked us to "hold off for now". So I've been holding off waiting for you to get back to us. | 04:36 |
|---|---|---|
| onefang | Got the DVD burner. The printed manual says to carefully and completely read the manual on the included disc BEFORE installing it. lol | 10:01 |
| onefang | The manual is in Korean, US English, and Australian English. B-) | 10:18 |
| onefang | Alas my DVD-RW has bit rotted, but I have a big stack of DVD-Rs I can sacrifice. I'll pop out to Officeworks tomorrow and gram some new DVD-RWs. | 11:55 |
| onefang | rrq, can I borrow your cat? | 11:55 |
| ShorTie | i got a couple dozen, you can borrow 1 from me | 12:13 |
| onefang | Are any of them good at hunting DVDs, like rrqs cat? | 12:14 |
| ShorTie | nop | 12:14 |
| ShorTie | just mice, rabbits, snakes and birds | 12:15 |
| onefang | My new DVD burner is really small, not much bigger than a DVD case. I don't think I could squeeze a small snake into it. | 12:15 |
| ShorTie | actually, i thought dvd's where like dead | 12:17 |
| ShorTie | flash drives are the thingy now | 12:17 |
| onefang | We provide ISO images. I have no idea how many people actually burn them to a disk vs how many just dd them to USB. | 12:18 |
| onefang | So I'm trying to convince my Syslinux setup to be able to handle both. | 12:20 |
| ShorTie | ya, old habbits are hard to break sometimes | 12:21 |
| onefang | Certainly my DVD burner was so old and unused I had not noticed it was dead until recently when I needed to test this. Now I have a new one. | 12:22 |
| onefang | Even my Blu-ray player isn't doing anything other than gathering dust. | 12:22 |
| ShorTie | for my x86_64 installs, i've changed up to vfat for boot | 12:25 |
| ShorTie | grub don't care | 12:25 |
| ShorTie | or the system | 12:25 |
| ShorTie | but makes like easier for me, lol. | 12:26 |
| ShorTie | and it's like a gig, so copy-n-go works, hehe. | 12:27 |
| fsmithred | I got yelled at by users for suggesting that they put the iso images on a usb stick. | 12:52 |
| onefang | So we must protect fsmithred's ear drums. | 12:55 |
| fsmithred | and support those two people who still have blank optical media. | 12:55 |
| fsmithred | well, three. I still have a few disks left. | 12:56 |
| fsmithred | but I don't normally use them | 12:56 |
| onefang | Four, I still have a stack that I'm likely to turn into coasters during testing tonight. | 12:56 |
| onefang | I'm gonna burn through a stack of disks. B-) | 12:57 |
| onefang | I didn't pay for them anyway. A client long ago gave me a huge box of them, that I didn't need back then either. | 12:57 |
| * onefang adds CD writing pen to my shopping list. Old one dried out over the years of non use. lol | 13:13 | |
| ShorTie | another advantage to a usb drive, single drive install can be done | 13:32 |
| ShorTie | i'd promote that feature, just to dump iso's .. :/~ | 13:36 |
| fsmithred | what do you mean by single drive install? | 13:43 |
| ShorTie | you put your install files on sumfin and boot | 13:46 |
| ShorTie | the system then copies all the needed stuff to ram | 13:47 |
| ShorTie | reformat drive | 13:47 |
| fsmithred | so you don't need any removable media | 13:47 |
| ShorTie | and install | 13:47 |
| ShorTie | nop | 13:47 |
| fsmithred | I don't think I've ever done one of those. I guess I should try it. | 13:49 |
| ShorTie | it's nice imho | 13:50 |
| ShorTie | when you only have 1 sdcard to play with, gotta be creative, lol. | 13:51 |
| ShorTie | you can also have install look for and copy/place any personal files | 13:55 |
| ShorTie | like a wpa_supplicant | 13:56 |
| ShorTie | so on first boot wifi just works | 13:56 |
| ShorTie | what cha do, is like after selecting install drive | 14:02 |
| ShorTie | if install drive == drive booted, then copy all to ram | 14:03 |
| amesser | LeePen: For packaging: which will be the final url of the git after anything has been done: gitea.devuan.dev or git.devuan.org? So, should we update the fields in debian/control? | 20:50 |
| fsmithred | amesser, I think they both work. I know that devuan-packages gets changed to just devuan | 21:16 |
| fsmithred | "think..." I can log into either and it takes me to the same place. | 21:17 |
| amesser | fine, so I wont change anything for now | 21:18 |
| fsmithred | I just changed my control file from devuan-packages to devuan. Thanks for the reminder about that one. | 21:19 |
| fsmithred | yesterday I added gitea as a remote origin | 21:20 |
| amesser | ah i see, the group name has changed | 21:21 |
| fsmithred | and you may need to get added to some groups on the server | 21:22 |
| fsmithred | I don't know the details on that | 21:22 |
| amesser | I think LeePen already added me, at least I got an E-Mail like that | 21:26 |
| fsmithred | you'll find out when you try to push | 21:27 |
| amesser | haha :-) | 21:27 |
| fsmithred | oh, you'll need to upload a pub key | 21:28 |
| amesser | yep, i already did | 21:28 |
| LeePen | amesser: gitea is on git.d.o now. | 21:45 |
| amesser | ok | 21:46 |
| LeePen | You do need to update d/control though: devuan-packages is just devuan. | 21:46 |
| LeePen | I have already done dbus, elogind, util-linux if you want to compare. | 21:47 |
| LeePen | I added you as collab, so you should be able to push. | 21:48 |
| amesser | starting the ci build is same as before? | 21:48 |
| LeePen | Basically. | 21:49 |
| amesser | i'll have a look at the your projects then | 21:49 |
| LeePen | From a user perspective. | 21:49 |
| LeePen | There is documentation in devuan/documentation/maintainers. | 21:50 |
| amesser | thx | 21:50 |
| amesser | Unfortunately, I'm still very busy with several personal projects. | 21:52 |
| amesser | But I'll try spent time for devuan more often. | 21:52 |
| amesser | During covid-19 shutdown I manged to setup a matrix im + jitsi server at our company | 21:53 |
| amesser | The people here love it so much, that they started to drop webex, skype and slack for it | 21:53 |
| amesser | Tomorrow, i'll go one with the final step to setup phone dial-in for jitsi | 21:54 |
