T42<Bohdan> Are there any generic rootfs avaible or is it possible to build one with the sdk without andorid dependencies ? So it just expects a base Linux kernel?09:28
T42<elros34> platform sdk target is like rootfs but for sure you can also build one without android dependencies, see pinephone repos for example09:40
T42<Bohdan> Yeah, I'm looking at it now and figuring out how to build my own instead of using pinephones rootfs is sdk target bootable or does it lack something?09:49
T42<elros34> depends on what do you mean by bootable. It has basic set of tools but for sure without all gui stuff. You can create your rootfs with mic and ks file. Include all packages there and dependencies09:52
T42<elros34> not sure whether this is latest: https://gitlab.com/sailfishos-porters-ci/dont_be_evil-ci09:58
*** deathmist1 is now known as deathmist13:10
Mister_Magister@adampigg yo I have problem with the encryption stuff if you have a second13:25
Mister_Magisteroh13:25
Mister_Magisternevermind my config generation said the size to be negative13:26
Mister_MagisterOH ITS FREAKING STUPID BUSYBOX13:29
Mister_Magisteralright im yeeting it out, that's it13:29
malwhat is wrong with busybox?13:37
Mister_Magistereverything?13:46
Mister_Magisterprograms outputs and parameters absoltuely do not match the standard gnu stuff?13:47
Mister_Magisterand they're lacking in functionality?13:47
malyeah13:47
Mister_Magisterthey're literally cheap shitty knockoff of the real stuff that does no benefit but gets in the way13:47
T42<adampigg> mister_magister: so, youre getting there?13:53
Mister_Magisteryeah just my script messed up, other than that it will work fine13:53
T42<adampigg> gr813:54
T42<adampigg> mister_magister: if you are using an image file, you probably want to set the options that force encryption to be used, as the wizard wont create a non-encyrpted img file13:55
Mister_Magisternah I don't need to13:55
Mister_Magisterit works just fine13:55
Mister_Magisterit's just not mounting the empty image and thats fine13:55
T42<adampigg> yeah, but then home is on root, and might be small13:56
Mister_Magisterhow so?14:00
Mister_Magisterhow is image vs directory different in capacity?14:00
Mister_Magisterwhen they're on the same filesystem14:00
Mister_Magistercome on man fire those neurons14:00
Mister_Magisterin any case image would be smaller14:01
T42<Bohdan> Does anybody have a guide on how to make the rootfs for generic arm64 with base Linux kernel ? I'm trying to do it with PlatformSDK and it fails on trying to find syslinux package even though I didn't include it in the .ks file?14:31
T42<adampigg> mister_magister: where is home mounted if not encrypted? /userdata?..... have you made some script to set that up?15:45
Mister_Magister@adampigg, i don't know if you're joking or something, but yes in almost every community port, rootfs extarcts to /data/.stowaways/sailfishos17:26
Mister_Magisterhome is not mounted anywhere17:26
T42<adampigg> Ah, the old primitive. On Villa I take over the super partition and have own roots17:29
Mister_Magisterit's not old primitive, it's old "i don't have time to fuck aruond"17:31
Mister_Magisterliterally everyone does that17:31
Mister_Magistermal: update on the fingerprint, after i format /data and then reflash sfos i can register fingerprint during setup and then it works flawlessly I can unlock the phone repeatedly, but then after restart it never works again18:10
maldo permissions or something change for things in /data?18:14
malor content of it changes?18:14
Mister_Magisterthat would be quite difficult to verify no?18:15
malwel whatever paths the fingerpring code uses try to check those18:16
Mister_Magisterwell isn't it android blobs? I have no idea what they use xd18:17
malcheck /data folder in the rootfs, some blobs store things there18:18
Mister_Magisterwill do18:19
