| gnarface | agneli: you happen to have a bannanapi m3? | 03:31 |
|---|---|---|
| agneli | gnarface: unfortunately not | 06:34 |
| agneli | what do you need :) | 06:34 |
| gnarface | agneli: nomia here was trying to boot the SD image for daedalus and chimaera on one | 06:37 |
| gnarface | no display output is happening | 06:37 |
| agneli | is there any ubuntu or something official image? | 06:49 |
| agneli | nd does it boot on that particular board? | 06:49 |
| nomia | i got some armbian images but they loop thru the boot process and reboot until they get tired and stop | 06:57 |
| agneli | https://wiki.banana-pi.org/Banana_Pi_BPI-M3#Linux | 06:57 |
| agneli | so nothing official boots? | 06:58 |
| nomia | i think they are trying to run the firstboot script and resize the partition etc | 06:58 |
| agneli | are there any logs avaliable? | 06:58 |
| nomia | idk | 06:59 |
| nomia | (: it's all systemd | 06:59 |
| agneli | but if that is really some initial script | 06:59 |
| agneli | that means sytem is fully booted | 06:59 |
| agneli | and dmesg should be there, no? | 07:00 |
| nomia | i mean | 07:00 |
| agneli | ach not really.... | 07:00 |
| nomia | i guess the kernel boots and it is doing stuff | 07:00 |
| nomia | but i can't login | 07:00 |
| agneli | nomia: we need hard facts... | 07:01 |
| agneli | first I would make sure debian boots | 07:01 |
| nomia | ya idk how to get logs out of this thing | 07:01 |
| agneli | second I would obtain debian kernel sources | 07:01 |
| agneli | then debootstrap devuan | 07:01 |
| agneli | and mount it ismewhere and compile the kernel from debian source | 07:02 |
| agneli | nomia do you have access to serial console | 07:02 |
| agneli | of that board? | 07:02 |
| nomia | not yet | 07:02 |
| nomia | no usb serial adapter | 07:02 |
| agneli | that would be the easiest | 07:03 |
| agneli | iiuw board does boot but gets stuck on some script | 07:03 |
| nomia | (: ya i agree now | 07:03 |
| agneli | and since we have no display we have no idea about where it gets stuck | 07:04 |
| nomia | other distro's boot but devuan is just dead screen | 07:04 |
| nomia | idk if devuan even loads a kernel or anything | 07:04 |
| agneli | so you do have display of the other distro? | 07:05 |
| nomia | yes | 07:05 |
| agneli | what are the messages there | 07:05 |
| agneli | nomia first really boot something fully | 07:05 |
| agneli | then devuan :) | 07:05 |
| nomia | too fast to read anything but it looks like normal boot msgs | 07:05 |
| agneli | i mean something _official_ | 07:05 |
| agneli | you have some descen smartphone? | 07:05 |
| nomia | lots of lines of stuff and [ok]'s | 07:05 |
| agneli | do this 20 frames per soecond | 07:06 |
| agneli | *240 | 07:06 |
| agneli | and watch in slow motion | 07:06 |
| nomia | lol | 07:06 |
| nomia | (: brilliant | 07:06 |
| agneli | and what is the last line? :) | 07:06 |
| nomia | ok i need to find a distro that does smth | 07:07 |
| nomia | do u know how to get systemd logs from /var if I mount the sdcard? | 07:10 |
| agneli | dmesg is there, no? | 07:10 |
| agneli | i have 0 exp with systemd | 07:10 |
| agneli | i guess just mount it | 07:11 |
| agneli | chroot there | 07:11 |
| agneli | and use whatever any systemd ttorial tells you to use | 07:11 |
| nomia | i can't run binaries in chroot? | 07:11 |
| agneli | just remember this is arm :) | 07:11 |
| nomia | ya | 07:11 |
| agneli | you can | 07:12 |
| agneli | but you have to have same isa | 07:12 |
| nomia | also idk how to set the clock | 07:12 |
| agneli | it htis is aarch64 then you need similar cpu | 07:12 |
| nomia | so idk if time stamps are legit | 07:12 |
| agneli | where you chroot | 07:12 |
| agneli | or use qemu | 07:12 |
| agneli | is the clock important? dmesg just outputs seconds stince the start | 07:13 |
| agneli | am I wrong? | 07:13 |
| nomia | i think so | 07:13 |
| nomia | but idk if dmesg even has a log file | 07:14 |
| nomia | i don't see anything dmesg in /var | 07:14 |
| agneli | syslog? | 07:15 |
| agneli | aby log? | 07:15 |
| agneli | *any | 07:15 |
| gnarface | nomia: i just use ntpdate to set the time for stuff i'm not gonna leave on, and ntpd for stuff i am | 07:17 |
| agneli | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmesg | 07:19 |
| nomia | i think systemd puts logs somewhere weird | 07:23 |
| nomia | not in /var/log | 07:23 |
| agneli | what systemd has to do with kernel buffer? | 07:23 |
| agneli | i am not sure it is relevant | 07:24 |
| agneli | unless it does not create syslog... | 07:24 |
| nomia | how can i save kernel buffer and read it later? | 07:25 |
| agneli | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd | 07:25 |
| nomia | lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Mar 20 2023 default.target -> graphical.target | 07:27 |
| agneli | https://www.loggly.com/ultimate-guide/linux-logging-with-systemd/ | 07:27 |
| nomia | i switched that to multi-user.target | 07:27 |
| agneli | you mean you changed the link? | 07:28 |
| nomia | but it still goes black after boot msgs | 07:28 |
| nomia | ya | 07:28 |
| agneli | iirc it should work | 07:28 |
| agneli | nomia: I was not joiking about a smartphone | 07:28 |
| nomia | (: i know | 07:28 |
| agneli | this is not windows, there is no point in wasting time on guessing | 07:29 |
| agneli | when we can gather hard facts | 07:29 |
| nomia | i thought it would stop at login if i disabled graphical.target | 07:29 |
| nomia | then i could run log commands | 07:29 |
| agneli | well i believe modern frame buffer is not really text anymore | 07:30 |
| gnarface | nomia: dmesg > dmesg_output.txt | 07:34 |
| gnarface | any command, you can dump the output to a text file by using the ">" operator | 07:35 |
| gnarface | and as for where systemd put the logs... don't be so sure there even are any | 07:35 |
| gnarface | by default i think there are actually not, but you'd use journald to read them after enabling it but BEFORE rebooting somehow (not that that's gonna help you in this case) | 07:36 |
| agneli | i pasted an article that looks sane bove | 07:36 |
| agneli | and I guess "default" depends on a particular distio | 07:37 |
| agneli | *distro | 07:37 |
| nomia | gnarface: (: i have to boot first | 07:54 |
| nomia | if i could boot a distro i would be almost done | 07:54 |
| agneli | if what your telling is correct | 08:00 |
| agneli | you _are_ booting a distro | 08:00 |
| agneli | you just need to tell us what _exactly_ is wrong | 08:00 |
| agneli | then gnarface will solve your issues in an instant I am 100% sure :) | 08:01 |
| agneli | and get the console :) | 08:02 |
| nomia | well i can't get the serial console until i buy a usb adapter | 08:03 |
| nomia | (: and i don't think booting a distro that unboots after 2 seconds counts | 08:04 |
| nomia | it might even be less than 2 seconds | 08:04 |
| nomia | i really need a tripod for this | 08:14 |
| nomia | ): this video is too shaky and out of focus to read tiny fonts | 08:17 |
| gnarface | nomia: you could use ffmpeg to split the frames into individual files | 09:28 |
| nomia | gnarface: i am using mpv to slow down to 1 frame but they were all too bad | 10:12 |
| nomia | (: i broke the rules and did up and down orientation and it is slightly better | 10:12 |
| agneli | i do not believe it needs to be super clear ;) | 18:02 |
| agneli | and can your phone display the video shot by shot? | 18:02 |
| agneli | then just do a screenshot and post somewhere... | 18:02 |
| agneli | nomia: what does it mean unboots? :) :) :) | 18:03 |
| agneli | is not buying and adapter the fastest and pretty cheap options? | 18:03 |
| agneli | what does it takes on alliexpress? $1? probably shipping and customs included | 18:04 |
| agneli | and you do not need a table nomia - just put your elbows on the table, use them as a tripod | 18:20 |
