<davidlt>
was part of f33-rebuild, but only somehow got into f34
<rwmjones>
weird, maybe there was a problem with it and someone untagged it?
<davidlt>
rwmjones, almost all Rust package are noarch so just importing is enough :)
<davidlt>
rwmjones, most likely
<rwmjones>
so it is ..
<davidlt>
rwmjones, but it could be that other packages were built against it in a short amount of thime and those landed
<davidlt>
I have seen this before
<davidlt>
there the requires package to build is not part of the release
<davidlt>
where
* davidlt
brain is not working yet
<rwmjones>
those noarch packages install fine
<rwmjones>
let's see if I can build hyperfine now ..
<rwmjones>
it's building ..

hyperfine compiled ok

is building the other hifive unmatched now ...
<rwmjones>
my plan is to temporarily use the ubuntu bootloader and redirect it to boot Fedora from the NVMe drive

davidlt: another archaeology question: if one had a f31-era rawhide fedora-rv64gc VM, with riscv-specific URLs in /etc/yum.repos.d pointed at "http://fedora-riscv.tranquility.se/..."; (and kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/repos/rawhide/latest/riscv64 in /etc/mock/fedora-rawhide-riscv64) -- how would one re-point those URLs to something age-appropriate for that version?
<rwmjones>
there may be other links under kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org/repos but unlikely that we kept anything from f31
<rwmjones>
that was probably before we switched the build system over from the .se site
<somlo>
rwmjones: thanks!
<rwmjones>
fyi jive got rebooted because I had to plug in a machine that was obscured by the plug
cmuellner has joined #fedora-riscv
<BryceII>
yeah
<BryceII>
you basically provide a disk as a internet capable drive
<BryceII>
oops
jbowen has quit [Quit: leaving]
<rwmjones>
BryceII: ?
<BryceII>
rwmjones: oh collegue of mine in another irc window,.. we're discussing diskless pxe booting and raid1 ramdisk scenarios for teh riscv
<rwmjones>
hehe
<rwmjones>
I'm using nbdkit-tmpdisk-plugin as a remote tmpfs
<BryceII>
(that said I'm having more fun with rpm crapping out on rpms with cap_foo (apability issue though I dunno what exactly
<BryceII>
error: unpacking of archive failed on file /usr/bin/newgidmap;60d088f2: cpio: cap_set_file failed - No such file or directory
* BryceII
scratchs his head,.. seems a common enough problem just not nailed since it's rpm's own cpio version that spits it out
<BryceII>
/etc/fstab: security.capability: Operation not supported
* BryceII
scratchs his head,.. if this is selinux I'n going to fetch the 3-in-1 oil and a book of matches...
<rwmjones>
my two boards have mac addresses that differ by +2
<BryceII>
I'll be a lot happier when we can write a FSBL/BBL into the SPI-NOR I have a habit of breaking SD cards or loosing them under heavy furniture hiding a hoarde of dust bunnies
* BryceII
was going to weigh in on EFI/uboot/ SPI-NOR but there are better folk working on it
<bkeys45>
How about booting into Fedora in the first place?
<BryceII>
sure,..

How did you manage to get Fedora on the unmatched?
<BryceII>
where the NVME is a 1TB 970
<bkeys45>
Do you have a bootable image? Or did you run the ubuntu kernel with a fedora userland?
<BryceII>
chicken blood and voodoo!
<BryceII>
pfft nah, it's simpler than that,.. the unmached came with a SD card with the sifive SD boot
<bkeys45>
Mine just had the freedom SDK, something like that
<BryceII>
yeap,..
<BryceII>
ok well
<BryceII>
the easy way is boot the unmatched's SD card,.. then partition up the NVME as you see fit,.. I expect odd things sI I want with this layout,.. sec lemme get my notes
<BryceII>
parted --script /dev/nvme0n1 \
<BryceII>
mkpart primary 1MiB 2MiB \
<BryceII>
mkpart primary fat16 6MiB 518MiB \
<BryceII>
mkpart primary 2MiB 6MiB \
<BryceII>
mklabel gpt \
<BryceII>
mkpart primary ext4 518MiB 100% \
<BryceII>
print
<BryceII>
you can then grab yourself the fedora 33 rootfs and copy it over PREFERABLY from another network machine ,... the SD card speed is *****d
<BryceII>
mkfs.msdos /dev/nvme0n1p3
<BryceII>
mkfs.ext4 /dev/nvme0n1p4
<BryceII>
mount /dev/nvme0n1p4 /mnt
<BryceII>
if you have the fedora rootfs mount (kpartx -av foo.img) then you can cd to that mounted area and use something like
<BryceII>
(the dd is just to let you know there is movement happeneing)
<bkeys45>
Is this nicely written up somewhere?
<BryceII>
after that you just edit the fstab and the SD cards /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf file to point roo to the nmve partition,.. oh and fix the UUID's (blkid will show them) and lastly copy over the sifive's /lib/modules/5.* directory to the nvme or you'll loose fun stuff like bluetoothand wireless)
bkeys has joined #fedora-riscv
<BryceII>
it will be,.. I was writing it up for my college since he's more toolchain orientated
<BryceII>
<-- more a system integration specialist
<bkeys>
BryceII where did you get the fedora riscv image from?
<bkeys>
The qemu image they distribute in the wiki?
<BryceII>
the only fly in the ointment I've hit so far is that the sifive kernel doesn;t seem to have Selinux/capabilities enabled which causes,.. interesting times
<bkeys>
Oh no
<BryceII>
yeah the one off the wicki,.. you'll probably be fine with just the rootfs,.. the wic I couldn;t get that to work on the unmatched but the SD card hates me anyway
bkeys45 has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
<bkeys>
Okay, well I gotta download the images and all that so I will probably start on this in an hour or two
<bkeys>
I would really like to have Fedora on the unmatched
<rwmjones>
bkeys: hey
<BryceII>
I have a badly written email if you want it as guidence
<rwmjones>
I have it working now actually
<bkeys>
BryceII That would be good
<bkeys>
rwmjones Do you have a bootable image?
<BryceII>
I was trying to figure out getting pxe/iscsi going to make it all diskless
<rwmjones>
nope, I'm using the ubuntu uboot + kernel to boot the fedora userspace :-/
<BryceII>
ok who wahts a crappy email?
<rwmjones>
I wouldn't mind seeing that
<bkeys>
rwmjones I have attempted something like that but failed; do you have a script or something written up?
<BryceII>
You must log in with services to message this user ... huh?
<rwmjones>
(rjones@redhat.com)
<BryceII>
me old stomping ground!
<rwmjones>
bkeys: so what I did basically was to unpack the Fedora second partition onto a partition on the NVMe drive
<rwmjones>
then edit /boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf on the ubuntu filesystem to point to that, ie. setting root=LABEL=<label-of-my-fedora-root>
<rwmjones>
I also had to resize2fs the fedora partition
<rwmjones>
and edit /etc/fstab in *Fedora* root to remove reference to /boot
<rwmjones>
my handy nbdkit command for extracting the second partition was:
<BryceII>
blkid is what you ned there to find the UUID's in effect
<rwmjones>
it's a hack though, I'm sure BryceII's method is better, especially since the ubuntu kernel doesn't have selinux
<BryceII>
mine is more or less the same actually though I wrote up a more agile extlinux.conf
<bkeys>
I am just spinning my wheels downloading images right now
<bkeys>
rwmjones How far are you from having a bootable image? Or is that not what you are working on?
<rwmjones>
I'm not working on that at the moment
<bkeys>
It should hopefully be a moot point once they get UEFI on the unmatched
<rwmjones>
davidlt may be working on this, he's got a pile of unmatched machines
<rwmjones>
interesting that -march=native doesn't work
<BryceII>
I put in for an unmatched way back at the end of febuary,.. I was starting to think it was a scam the numbver of times it kept getting put back
