No you need to package xfsprogs and install it.(i use f2fs on my system)

hi
<sad_plan>
sujo: I have xfsprogs in my repo. its not in community or anywhere though
<sad_plan>
if you want it that is. kernel does support it nativly aswell.
<sad_plan>
xdream8[m]: do you even encounter dataloss? I know f2fs has weak fsck. atleast it had
<sad_plan>
s/even/ever/
<illiliti>
i did
<sad_plan>
oh, you dont recommend f2fs then? :p
<xdream8[m]>
I've never had a single data loss.. Didnt have any problems with f2fs and currently all my filesystems are f2fs on my laptop(including boot partition)
<sad_plan>
hm. I see. I currently use xfs, but Im looking into just using ext4 instead, for the stability. the speed differences are mostly neglible from what I can find anyway
<illiliti>
cut the power and see how your recent files are lost on f2fs
<sad_plan>
that would be a bummer if your files kept getting lost
<illiliti>
yeah
<illiliti>
that's why i use zfs
<illiliti>
never had data loss
<illiliti>
although i'm considering bcachefs. it looks interesting
<xdream8[m]>
it would be really troublesome if files on boot partition got lost
<sad_plan>
thats reassuring. do you have several disks and have redundancy? or do you just do proper backups?
<sad_plan>
never had any loss on xfs afaik either
<sad_plan>
xdream8[m]: no issue if you have a backup kernel on disk. and boot from kernel directly :D
<xdream8[m]>
i do backups regularly.
<illiliti>
xfs is good if you don't need encryption
<sad_plan>
I have a separete kernel which I can boot, so if the kernel should somehow disappear, I can just boot that instead.
<sad_plan>
yeah, but xfs does support encryption. ive used it before iirc on artix
<illiliti>
it sucks iirc
<illiliti>
it is per-directory iirc
<illiliti>
ecryptfs or something
<illiliti>
you can't boot from it, so xfs on root is not option with encryption on
<illiliti>
if you meant luks, i don't even consider it because once i switched to zfs i realized how bad it is
<illiliti>
it is much slower than zfs native encryption
<sad_plan>
yeah I guess it was luks. iirc I also had it on /boot. my memory may fail me aswell tbh.
<sad_plan>
dont you need kernel patches for zfs aswell? as its not supported nativly
<illiliti>
yes
<illiliti>
hence i consider using bcachefs instead
<illiliti>
but i wouldn't say that zfs being out-of-tree is bad
<illiliti>
their patches very rarely cause any issue
<illiliti>
at least I don't remember that I had some serious problems with that
<xdream8[m]>
btw your data loss may be related to options on fstab, i remember generating my fstab with genfstab script from cemkeylan
<illiliti>
need similar video about disk/fs encryption
<illiliti>
cuz it is too important to be omitted
<sad_plan>
I have a prebuilt gcc built, in a dir, and a chroot which I wanted to use to build some stuff, but I wanna use the toolchain, which is outside the chroot. how can I in the best way possible use that prebuilt gcc from inside the chroot?
<sad_plan>
I was thinking mount, but not sure if mount can even help me here
<sad_plan>
I was trying to avoid just copying it initially anyway
<illiliti>
bind mount will help
<illiliti>
hardlinks also
<sad_plan>
ill look into bind mount. never used hardlinks before actually. but ill checkem both out. cheers illiliti

is there any disadvantage to using the offical kiss tarball?
<sujo>
or should I use some other community tarball?
<sad_plan>
well. no not really. unless theres a tarball that has something very specific that you want to use.
<sad_plan>
theres however nothing stoping you from switching to w/e this is
<sujo>
sad_plan: gotcha, thanks
<sad_plan>
the official however, you mean the one from github? which dylan araps released?
<sad_plan>
its outdated by a longshot now. so id advice you to use the one from codeberg.org/kiss-community/repo instead
<sad_plan>
its more up to date
<sujo>
yeah, I meant in terms of up-to-date
<sujo>
I'll use that one
<sad_plan>
yeah, appart from that, theres not much difference there. the community one uses b3sum, whereas dylans does not. but thats not much of an issue one cant overcome in 2 minutes or something
