jokeefe | I am swamped with work so probably not. New raspberry pi arrived for my other radio. Will get it setup and try an access point without internet connectivity | 22:01:51 |
cure | ok I'm joining now | 23:05:33 |

Stephen304 | Can anyone share their node firewall zone settings? I think my forwardings might be wrong | 00:24:34 |
Stephen304 | Nvm, it was correct :) | 00:32:48 |
jmaasr joined the room. | 03:50:20 | |

cure | the library node has some f2fs corruption, specifically in the /usr/lib/lua directory. This is why ygg can not connect, it can not get lua to parse the config | 20:17:47 |
cure | I am trying to make fsck.f2fs fix it but no luck so far. | 20:24:14 |
Stephen304 | Is the sd card itself alright? | 23:06:27 |
cure | good question. I haven't been able to fix it yet, but I did take some notes. The situation is that the node is online, but yggdrasil can't start (and the web interface is broken) because the /usr/lib/lua directory is corrupted. That's the f2fs error:
| 23:32:43 |
cure | on the upside, ssh works fine. Installing software still works fine, and rebooting also works fine. I added fsck.f2fs (and lsblk and blkid etc). But I don't know yet how to convince fsck.f2fs to actually do its thing; it keeps complaining it doesn't want to work on a partition that is "in use". That's despite me mounting / and /overlay ro. | 23:35:31 |
cure | the lay of the land on that node is
| 23:35:56 |
cure | I'm still a little fuzzy about the precise interaction of the partition (/dev/mmcblk0p2 -- blkid says it's a squashfs ) partition, with overlayfs and f2fs | 23:37:14 |

Stephen304 | I wonder if using a usb drive would make things more robust... I think the pi4 supports it out of the box now | 02:15:11 |
Stephen304 | Also is the library node a pi 4 or 3? | 02:16:00 |
cure | it's a pi 3b | 02:16:04 |
Stephen304 | Might be good to upgrade that, I thought the 3 was pretty slow | 02:17:49 |
Stephen304 | Have you tried running the fsck from another pc with the sd card connected? | 02:18:31 |
cure | I haven't | 02:18:58 |
cure | I didn't actually physically touch the thing, it was all network access. Sitting a few feet away | 02:19:29 |
@lurker42o:matrix.org | Did you take a backup of the Yggdrasil conf? Worst case we could just plop a new node down and use the same PK | 13:59:09 |
cure | yeah I have a backup of the /etc directory of the node | 14:05:38 |
cure | * yeah I have a backup of the /etc directory of the meshnode | 14:05:51 |
cure | thinking about the best course of action here. taking the sd card out, doing an fsck from another machine, seems like a thing to try. | 14:58:25 |
cure | maybe in parallel I should prepare a replacement sd card, just in case. | 14:58:46 |
cure | I have an sd card but no pi 3b to try it from/configure it on | 14:59:15 |
@lurker42o:matrix.org | do you have a pi4? | 15:00:20 |
cure | yeah I do | 15:01:03 |
@lurker42o:matrix.org | If you configured on that for now, I could pick one up with our "corporate card" and install it at the site on Thursday | 15:01:19 |
@lurker42o:matrix.org | it might be good to get them a pi4 anyway | 15:01:38 |
