Centurion_Dangolinux - really??02:29
golinuxYes.02:33
golinuxHard to muster motivation to relearn how to set up my workflow.  Without the workflow set up, it's a pain to do anything.02:35
golinuxSo I nothing really progresses.02:36
golinux-I02:36
Xenguygolinux, You just need a way to clone data and applications02:46
XenguyI use rsync for 'data'...02:46
XenguyFor 'applications', there are better ways, but you can just create a list of your current apps, then re apt-get them once your new install is complete02:47
XenguyBonus points if you can automate that02:47
golinuxI know you're trying to help but . . .  I in theory I know how to do it.  But just glaze over at the thought of doing it.02:49
golinuxI can't even remember where I got stumped the last time . . .02:49
XenguyI take notes (either hardcopy or digital), like a log, when I'm doing any upgrade or migration02:50
golinuxEven thinking about this makes me want to go to sleep and forgot the whole thing02:50
golinuxThank you but enough . . .02:51
XenguyWell suit yourself, but I'll tell you, one of the things about Linux is that tinkering is encouraged, and I like to exercise that option every once in a while02:51
golinuxIt annoys me to talk to the machine02:52
XenguyLast point, it's doable, if you need to get it done02:52
XenguyTalk to yourself instead!02:52
Xenguy: -)02:52
golinuxSlience!02:52
Xenguy... crickets ...02:53
golinuxthanks02:53
Xenguynp02:53
golinuxPlease don;t take it personally02:54
golinuxI could play all night with colors :D02:55
XenguyNot at all02:55
Centurion_Dangolinux - do you want me to upgrade it for you?03:24
golinuxThanks but I'm not upgrading.  Stating from a fresh ascii install03:25
golinuxI'm building it up on the other machine (which I hadn't even turned on in over 800 days).03:26
XenguySounds like Centurion_Dan is offering to help with that too...03:26
* Xenguy runs, ducks, and hides ...03:26
golinuxThen I'll take a snapshot and install it on my working rig on sda03:27
golinuxThere's really nothing he can help with.03:28
XenguyVery well03:29
masongolinux: Stop private messaging me. I'm not going to put you on an ignore list, but I'll ask you publically since you won't stop messaging me. STOP NOW. Thanks.03:56
golinux(mason has put fingers in his ears and nahnahnahing.)03:59
masonrrq: Based on that kind of thing right there, I don't feel like this is a community I want to pursue. I've just removed my account from nash: https://bpa.st/I54A  I'll remove my local record of any shared passwords I've got. Apologies for the extra work of cleaning up anything that remains, but nash is the big piece. git permissions might be worth dropping as well, and I'm not sure I know the cleanest04:01
masonway to do it, so I'll leave that to you.04:01
XenguyOh damn04:02
masonI'd strongly advise looking to the future of the project and addressing this sort of thing, and I wish you all well and support the mission wholeheartedly.04:02
masono/04:02
XenguyMaybe sleep on it mason?04:03
XenguyWould miss you04:03
golinuxPut me on ignore.  I really don't care.04:04
fsmithred_he's gone04:04
XenguyGawdamnit04:04
golinuxMuch ado about nothing really but makes for colossal drama04:21
rrqfsmithred_: some new isos available04:58
UsLwhat was his problem? And what even went down?05:07
XenguyNot clear, and let's leave some space for respect05:08
XenguyGonna have to sleep on this myself05:08
UsLhm..05:09
* UsL checks the forum for clues..05:09
golinuxUsL: Get to know us better.  :)05:10
golinuxNothing on the forum.05:10
UsLah, okay.05:10
fsmithred_Success! https://transfer.sh/1Aa2irt/Screenshot_deepsea-grub.png17:12
fsmithred_https://transfer.sh/1VGUeKU/Screenshot_deepsea-slim.png17:18
fsmithred_https://transfer.sh/1u1Dqh6/Screenshot_deepsea-xfce.png17:19
LeePenfsmithred_: We also need deepsea colours for mini isos.17:46
fsmithred_oh, I'd have to look at where the files are in the iso. What I posted is the installed system.17:46
fsmithred_The installer now sets up the grub theme properly. It wasn't happening before.17:47
LeePenGreat17:48
fsmithred_LeePen, for isolinux, get stdmenu.cfg https://git.devuan.org/devuan/installer-iso/src/branch/amd64-chimaera-sudo/boot/isolinux17:50
fsmithred_and the splash image is in pics - get the deepsea one17:50
fsmithred_looks like the grub menu calls isolinux/splash.png17:52
LeePenOK. Thanks17:52
fsmithred_and it looks like the mini.iso is set up the same way.17:56
fsmithred_stdmenu.cfg has the text colors - only a few lines will be different17:56
fsmithred_LeePen, do you know about the magic-touch script in the installer isos? https://git.devuan.org/devuan/installer-iso/src/branch/master/scripts/magic-touch19:11
fsmithred_it runs at the end of the install and fixes a few things19:11
LeePenI know it exists, that is about it ;)19:11
fsmithred_maybe not so important for mini19:12
LeePenIt wasn't needed for beowulf mini.isos.19:12
fsmithred_have you done an install with a chimaera mini?19:13
fsmithred_the efi boot dir might get named wrong19:13
LeePenNot all the way. Just fixing a bug in net-installer and then will try again.19:13
fsmithred_that was part of the fix in the magic touch. So the boot menu says devuan.19:13
LeePenAlthouh I don't have any UEFI hardware, so can only test legacy.19:13
fsmithred_I'm guessing it has the same problem. The grub prefix is hard-coded, so there needs to be a grub.cfg in EFI/debian19:15
fsmithred_to make the signed grub happy19:15
LeePenOK. Maybe you can test the next one for me?19:18
fsmithred_yes19:22
fsmithred_I need to put chimaera on the uefi laptop anyway19:22
UsLlooks great! Nice work all20:36
Xenguy8 -D21:02
