• 54[00:14:48] <lenswipe> that's the major issue here

• 125[00:29:38] <mason> lenswipe: What's your goal again?
• 126[00:29:42] <seifferth> You should be able to unselect swap in the installer
• 127[00:30:12] <seifferth> +1 for mason's suggestion, btw
• 128[00:30:25] <seifferth> debootstrap is a viable option

• 144[00:32:53] <lenswipe> mason, it was rsync i used last time

• 155[00:35:28] <lenswipe> how?
• 156[00:35:29] <seifferth> Or you just manually copy what you've been working on since the last backup (if that's easy enough, that is)
• 157[00:35:54] <seifferth> You should be able to mount your home partition just the way you mounted the root partition

• 382[02:30:43] <lenswipe> petn-randall, how's this: - i reinstalled my root partition using debootstrap and now my system boots but has no network or EFI partition
• 383[02:30:56] <lenswipe> i get kicked into emergency mode
• 384[02:31:39] <petn-randall> lenswipe: Ah, ok. Are you booting in EFI mode? If it gets to start grub and the kernel, I don't think you need it.
• 385[02:31:43] <lenswipe> i am yes
• 386[02:31:51] <frotz47> was your /boot folder in root?
• 387[02:31:56] <lenswipe> frotz47, it was yes
• 388[02:32:05] <lenswipe> i have a backup of root, but theres nothing in /boot
• 389[02:32:16] <petn-randall> lenswipe: Then your EFI should fail booting anything.
• 390[02:32:33] <lenswipe> Well, it first kicked me into a read only filesystem
• 391[02:32:33] <petn-randall> Without an EFI system partition, that is.
• 392[02:32:41] <lenswipe> to fix that i copied fstab back over
• 393[02:32:45] <lenswipe> and crypttab
• 394[02:33:00] <lenswipe> now i have a writable filesystem, but no aparently no EFI
• 395[02:33:07] <lenswipe> oh, and no network
• 396[02:33:09] <lenswipe> so that's fun
• 397[02:33:23] <frotz47> the kernels are always in /boot
• 398[02:33:53] <lenswipe> the empty folder on my backup disk disagrees
• 399[02:33:59] <lenswipe> also, how come i can boot into something
• 400[02:34:09] <lenswipe> surely the system should be unbootable if theres no kernel

• 435[02:42:11] <ryouma> so this debootstrap thing looks like something where you run it on a running system and it installs a debian under an empty subtree dir of some kind? and then you hanve to fixe a few things like passwords and such and then you can... move it and boot to it, or pivot to it or something?
• 436[02:42:21] <frotz47> lenswipe: if you are using LVM your root and /boot could have been seperate logical volumes
• 437[02:42:48] <lenswipe> another, im not seeing any mention of efi in lsblk
• 438[02:43:05] <lenswipe> petn-randall, could be. though, im not sure why it would have since i didn't reformat root
• 439[02:43:08] <lenswipe> ryouma, yep.
• 440[02:43:23] <ryouma> ok
• 441[02:43:31] <lenswipe> frotz47, yeah, i have a weird feeling that i didn't put /boot on a logical volume at all
• 442[02:43:32] <another> ryouma: pretty much, yeah. i almost exclusively install debian via debootstrap nowadays
• 443[02:43:47] <lenswipe> frotz47, but if that's the case...where the hell is it
• 444[02:43:52] <ryouma> another: why?
• 445[02:44:20] <lenswipe> quick question, the output of lsblk isn't sensitive, is it?
• 446[02:44:23] <ryouma> you can use your normal computer while it is installing, accessibility is set up for you already, etc. are the reasons it loks attractive
• 447[02:44:31] <lenswipe> i cant imagine it would be but...im fine to dump it into a pastebin, right?
• 448[02:44:49] <jmaher> ryouma: i find some thing easier still with the regular installer (e.g. setting up encrypted lvm partitions... )
• 449[02:45:07] <lenswipe> jmaher, well i already have envrypted lvm setup...i was just trying to replace the root partition
• 450[02:45:14] <lenswipe> the regular installer doesn't seem to do so well with that

• 455[02:46:05] <jmaher> lenswipe: s/also/always/
• 456[02:46:08] <ryouma> interesting. i thought debootstarap was used by the installer, so it would be the same
• 457[02:46:13] <lenswipe> another, ESP?
• 458[02:46:19] <ryouma> ohl maybe installer does more
• 459[02:46:24] <lenswipe> jmaher, im starting to come to the same conclusion
• 460[02:46:29] <another> ryouma: gives me tons of flexibility to setup partitions and encryption the way i like
• 461[02:46:48] <ryouma> and debootstrap doesn't do any partitioning?
• 462[02:46:53] <ryouma> or encryption/
• 463[02:46:59] <frotz47> wait... you can't put a /boot partion in a LVM volume because GRUB can't read it. I just remembered that.
• 464[02:47:16] <lenswipe> frotz47, sounds about right
• 465[02:47:36] <lenswipe> frotz47, is there any way to dump out where all my partitions are?

• 1883[19:27:46] <Sark> So it's not a problem with twm.
• 1884[19:28:07] <Sark> And since the middle click menu thing happens in xterm too, it's definitely related.

• 1887[19:28:52] <Sark> Surely there can't be anything really strange happening, it's just a normal, ordinary mouse.
• 1888[19:29:32] <Sark> Also... there is something wrong with the keyboard bindings too - at one point I crashed twm with a futzed keystroke in the .twmrc file and couldn't get ANY of the menus up - and control-alt-backspace doesn't work.

• 1988[20:16:09] <lenswipe> good idea
• 1989[20:16:29] <greycat> Even if you screw it up, it's not like you need dpkg for booting. So you can just restore the backup copy.

• 2051[20:43:45] <greycat> startx does not start *dm
• 2052[20:44:11] <n4dir> pretty sure that if i disabled a display manager and then i ran startx it simply put me to the display manager
• 2053[20:44:27] <n4dir> stopped, if i disabled it worked. duh
• 2054[20:44:31] <greycat> nope. not in my experience.
• 2055[20:44:43] <n4dir> then we have to agree about another thing

• 2058[20:45:27] <lenswipe> n4dir, get rid of what?
• 2059[20:45:29] <lenswipe> gdm?

• 2062[20:45:39] <greycat> the package is gdm3

• 2064[20:45:49] <greycat> that's why I was surprised that "systemctl start gdm" did anything
• 2065[20:45:57] <lenswipe> its probably an alias
• 2066[20:46:00] <lenswipe> so i just purged gdm3
• 2067[20:46:06] <n4dir> you can just disable it. no need to remove it, as that might well lead into metapackage problems
• 2068[20:46:59] <lenswipe> so ive removed it
• 2069[20:47:04] <lenswipe> should i re-install gdm3?#

• 2087[20:50:10] <greycat> If you are trying to say "startx xterm worked, but startx with no arguments did not work", then you failed to convey that.
• 2088[20:50:16] <jmcnaught> I think you need to use GDM if you want screen locking to work correctly in GNOME. Also GDM uses Wayland on buster, not X.
