2020-11-30T14:28:27 #kisslinux <nerditup> o/
2020-11-30T14:29:18 #kisslinux <testuser[m]> Hello
2020-11-30T15:56:08 #kisslinux <nerditup> midfavila: did you find a libvirt package? I'd be interested in having that packaged, might take it on
2020-11-30T15:56:16 #kisslinux <nerditup> I haven't checked community yet
2020-11-30T17:27:27 #kisslinux <midfavila> Nah, I didn't find anything for libvirt
2020-11-30T17:27:37 #kisslinux <midfavila> I tried compiling it but was having trouble so I said screw it
2020-11-30T19:36:22 #kisslinux <nerditup> what would be the most resilient way to get the PARTUUID of the device I have / mounted on? is /dev/disk/by-partuuid something I can expect to work on any system?
2020-11-30T19:41:04 #kisslinux <acheam> blkid?
2020-11-30T19:50:24 #kisslinux <dilynm> You could reasonably expect it to work on most systems... Mine doesn't have it tho seemingly
2020-11-30T20:11:49 #kisslinux <lyntsune> nerditup: Seems like libvirt has a good amount of dependencies: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/libvirt-git
2020-11-30T20:54:06 #kisslinux <dilynm> Most of those deps seem optional
2020-11-30T20:54:16 #kisslinux <dilynm> Peaking at the meson_options.txt at least
2020-11-30T20:54:46 #kisslinux <dilynm> Also wouldn't trust that package; apparently it previously depended... On itself...???
2020-11-30T20:55:39 #kisslinux <E5ten> nerditup: /dev/disk symlinks are created by eudev (or can be done with mdev if you set it up yourself, but that will be done using blkid), and afaik only the util-linux implementation of blkid will show PARTUUID
2020-11-30T20:55:42 #kisslinux <nerditup> I just reviewed the build process from the upstream site, seems pretty reasonable.
2020-11-30T20:56:03 #kisslinux <E5ten> but since PARTUUID is consistent you can just grab the util-linux version to run it once, and then save the PARTUUID and you'll never need to get it again
2020-11-30T20:56:31 #kisslinux <nerditup> E5ten: AH, that's why I couldn't see the PARTUUID on my chroot
2020-11-30T20:56:44 #kisslinux <nerditup> My blkid wasn't outputting PARTUUID
2020-11-30T20:57:15 #kisslinux <E5ten> yeah, you can just download the source for util-linux, build blkid, and run it from the source dir once
2020-11-30T20:57:23 #kisslinux <nerditup> I am hoping to grab the root mount point for my cmdline parameters automatically
2020-11-30T20:57:45 #kisslinux <nerditup> So if I migrate my kernel build to a new system it should more or less function the same
2020-11-30T20:57:52 #kisslinux <nerditup> (Or wipe my drive and start over)
2020-11-30T20:58:06 #kisslinux <E5ten> ah
2020-11-30T20:58:12 #kisslinux <E5ten> then you'll need util-linux's blkid I guess
2020-11-30T20:58:21 #kisslinux <nerditup> Okay, that's handy I'll be sure to use util-linux, thanks
2020-11-30T20:59:30 #kisslinux <nerditup> lyntsune: I would probably start with just QEMU support to avoid a ton of dependencies. I'm going to try and build it tonight and see how that goes
2020-11-30T21:00:15 #kisslinux <lyntsune> nerditup: Let me know how it goes please.
2020-11-30T21:16:45 #kisslinux <nerditup> will do :)
2020-11-30T21:39:11 #kisslinux <micr0> nerditup im on the same-ish series. would be good to share configs or feel free to ask specific questions. im not always on irc but i read the logs daily
2020-11-30T21:39:22 #kisslinux <micr0> i also have my kernel config up on github.com/jedahan/kiss-repo
2020-11-30T22:04:10 #kisslinux <nerditup> micr0: thanks! that's good to know - I'm currently taking on the task of documenting my setup so I can reproduce a kiss build pretty quickly and part of that was building myself the kernel package to automate the process of stuffing cmdline options into the EFI image
