 samueldr [Tow-Boot][NixOS] | cheetahpixie: if you want some fun https://efi.akeo.ie/ | 21:40:37 |
| cheetahpixie | oh boy, akeo, here we go | 21:40:53 |
| samueldr [Tow-Boot][NixOS] | in practice, if your "standard" (non-U-Boot AFAIUI) UEFI platform firmware supports the driver thing in UEFI, which many do, and if your UEFI platform firmware is not verified by the previous boot stages, you could in theory inject "fun" drivers into your proprietary platform firmware for... fun | 21:42:04 |
| cheetahpixie | I'd probably do it purely to gut out some code, routines and behavior and maybe hunt for bugs or quirks to document. | 21:42:48 |
| samueldr [Tow-Boot][NixOS] | "fun"! :) | 21:43:03 |
| cheetahpixie | no quotes for me. even though I just happen to break things by the happenstance of being present somehow, it's fun seeing it go haywire. | 21:43:38 |
| samueldr [Tow-Boot][NixOS] | they're not irony marks, they're the quotation marks reserved for that particular flavour of fun :) | 21:44:24 |
| cheetahpixie | gotcha. then sure. | 21:45:33 |

| PRIZ ;] | I'm trying to follow the instructions to install tow-boot on the pinephone pro
What is the "RE" button? | 14:34:45 |
| PRIZ ;] | oh its on the back not on the side | 14:48:49 |
| PRIZ ;] | okay so i held RESET + power until i got the red light, then i let go
now the light is still red | 14:59:12 |
| PRIZ ;] | i was a noob and installed to /dev/sdb1 instead of /dev/sdb | 15:15:09 |
| cheetahpixie | oops | 18:01:48 |
| cheetahpixie | dw, everyone was in your shoes at one point. | 18:02:05 |
| cheetahpixie | like me, who at some point installed grub to something like sda1 as opposed to sda on an mbr system. | 18:02:26 |
| cheetahpixie | bet there's gonna be mmcblk0 vs mmcblk0boot0 gotchas for towboot tho | 18:02:42 |

like me, who at some point installed grub to something like sda1 as opposed to sda on an mbr system. i was looking at the docs and misinterpreted /dev/mmcblk0 as a partition instead of as an index, like /dev/nvme0n1 | 22:02:48 |
| cheetahpixie | ahhh | 22:28:27 |
| cheetahpixie | yeah, the scsi driver does letters, while almost everything else does numners | 22:29:18 |
| cheetahpixie | think it was macos that did sd# and not sd* | 22:29:31 |
| 14 Jul 2024 |
 marcin | virtio also does letters | 03:44:34 |
| cheetahpixie | hm | 06:48:04 |
