  • What have been your costliest mistakes in using Linux?
  • My theory for what happened is:

    There might have been some delayed writes on Arch, but that's no the main issue.

    When booting into Fedora and running an update, the state of the filesystem changed to the point that when resuming Arch, it put the filesystem into an extremely inconsistent state (where the Arch system might have cached (meta)data that was changed since hibernation).

    Also, to clarify, I still managed to recover my data, but the FS was not mountable and btrfsck couldn't do shit. And I'm still using that Arch install to this day. XDDD

  • What have been your costliest mistakes in using Linux?
  • Hibernating my computer and then forgetting about it and booting into a different OS (Fedora Silverblue) on the same partition (BTRFS subvolume stuff). AND THEN TRYING TO RESUME THE HIBERNATED OS (Arch btw).

    my filesystem was pretty much unrecoverable and it was my fault

    Posting this since quite a bit has changed since I last posted about this on !technology@lemmy.world.

    Here's a rough breakdown of the current status:

    • shared Ventoy components: build and seem to work, needs more testing
      • grub / menu - builds
      • EDK II apps / UEFI chainloader and more - builds
      • iPXE / BIOS chainloader - builds, with fixes for newer toolchains
      • ISO9660 and UDF drivers - TODO
    • Ventoy CPIO / Linux ramdisk: builds; I deemed musl xzcat unneeded, so I skipped it; needs more testing
    • wimboot / Windows chainloader (?) - stalled, I lack the necessary knowledge to work on it
    • geom-ventoy / FreeBSD disk mapping kernel module - is being worked on, slowly; not ready for testing
    • anything else is a TODO

    This should be enough to boot Linux with just what's built manually, but I haven't tried that yet.

    Secure Boot is just done by using a pre-built bypass package. I'll deal with that later.

    Having more people testing this would be nice. :)

    Cheers

    Hello. I'm working on Ventoy CPIO, a replacement ramdisks for Ventoy. My goal is to create a sane build system (first for building ramdisks, then for the entire project), and solve the infamous issue of having blobs in the repo.
