| ravehaver9000 | ive been trying to switch my devuan install's init from sysvinit to s6 all day today for testing out how it goes | 00:05 |
|---|---|---|
| ravehaver9000 | for some reason s6-rc and s6 init script refused to build with the versions of the librarie and s6 from the debian/devuan repos so for now im gonna build from source | 00:07 |
| ravehaver9000 | ok, s6/quit | 00:34 |
| ravehaver9000 | oh sorry | 00:34 |
| ravehaver9000 | just gonna leave for a bit because i am now about to install s6 init | 00:34 |
| Guest40 | is there a reason why the net installer cant detect firmware even though its included | 09:18 |
| Guest40 | and also cant load it from a flash drive? | 09:18 |
| GoatAvenger | Guest40, https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/ch06s04 | 09:34 |
| GoatAvenger | may want to have a look at that, if you haven't already | 09:34 |
| GoatAvenger | I couldn't really help beyond that | 09:34 |
| Guest40 | sure did | 09:34 |
| GoatAvenger | no go? | 09:34 |
| Guest40 | nope | 09:34 |
| GoatAvenger | Used FAT as the filesystem on the USB? | 09:35 |
| Guest40 | fat32 | 09:35 |
| Guest40 | dos partition table | 09:35 |
| Guest40 | its the beowulf installer, by the way. im pretty sure the chimaera one will work | 09:35 |
| GoatAvenger | could try the original FAT | 09:35 |
| GoatAvenger | dunno.. | 09:36 |
| Guest40 | the chimaera net installer also does not know how to load its own firmware or firmware on other mediums | 09:52 |
| antranigv | Hey all, how are you? I'm having a hard time understand which Init system does Devuan use. Is it OpenRC or sysvinit or runit? | 11:00 |
| Guest40 | you can pick one in the installer | 11:01 |
| Guest40 | i dont know what the default is | 11:02 |
| antranigv | Ah I see, thanks! | 11:06 |
| djph | antranigv: default is sysvinit; the others are selectable | 11:18 |
| antranigv | djph the main reason for asking is because I want to run Devuan in a FreeBSD Jail using the linuxkpi (where syscalls are translated), I was wondering which one is the closest to old-school init.d systems. I assume all are, yes? | 11:20 |
| djph | well, sysvinit is ... as far as I know, a pretty literal port of UNIX System V. | 11:20 |
| antranigv | that should do it | 11:24 |
| pungentweasel | is this writeup on upgrading the kernel still pretty accurate? https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=564 ran into a pretty nasty amdgpu bug on my chimaera install and I think the only solution is an updated kernel | 16:52 |
| pungentweasel | the post is 5 years old, not sure how much has changed since then | 16:54 |
| debdog | pungentweasel: from a quick glance, seems reasonable | 17:11 |
| pungentweasel | thanks | 17:47 |
| fsmithred | pungentweasel, do you know about using chimaera-backports for a newer kernel? | 18:01 |
| pungentweasel | I didn't even think to check there for a kernel actually, thanks | 18:07 |
