hacksenwerkarmv6 = ARMv6 and armhf = AMRv7 ?20:07
yeti(yeti@pi1-a:3)~$ arch # --> armv6l20:11
yeti(yeti@pi2-a:2)~$ arch # --> armv7l20:12
hacksenwerkWhy are the images so bloated?20:29
hacksenwerk2.6GB for the rpi 1 ...20:30
yetisome seem to look at it as art  ...  I stopped using those images when I found installed unpackaged stuff and even changed dotfiles.20:33
hacksenwerkyeti: whats that?20:34
hacksenwerkI mean changed dot files like .bashrc ?20:34
yetiyip20:34
yetiadded useless blingbling just to flex muscles or such20:35
hacksenwerkI change config files too for my devuan derivate, wheres the problem?20:35
hacksenwerkBut was do you mean with installed unpackaged stuff ?20:35
hacksenwerk*what20:35
yetie.g. additional mc themes20:35
hacksenwerkok20:35
hacksenwerkbut nothing evil?20:35
yetihave I read every config file?20:36
yetiprobably not.20:36
yetibut my trust is gone20:36
metalathe build scripts are not provided?20:36
hacksenwerkyeti: lol But you trust Devuan official devs? Or any other?20:37
yetiI install debian and "migrate" it https://www.devuan.org/os/documentation/install-guides/daedalus/bookworm-to-daedalus20:37
hacksenwerkwtf20:37
hacksenwerkwhy?20:37
yetithere never was any surprise20:38
yetiI want it boring.20:38
hacksenwerkAnd debian devs are trustworthy?20:38
hacksenwerklike adding a heavy softlock dependency called systemd20:38
yetiit's soooo similar to what I get on other archs20:38
yetimigrating debian->devuan like in the link above IMO gives a cleaner system than the community artwork images20:40
hacksenwerkyeti: a you mean for arm20:41
hacksenwerk?20:41
yetisure.20:41
hacksenwerkah ok :D20:41
yetiwhere official devuan images exist, I use them20:41
hacksenwerkI thought you do this for every arch20:41
hacksenwerkok :)20:41
yetijust not the community builds20:41
hacksenwerknice that sounds good!20:42
hacksenwerkyeti: thx for the hint!20:42
hacksenwerkBut are there minimal armel images for debian?20:42
hacksenwerkOr do they come bloated is the devuan ones?20:43
yetisome arm variants are in the official release downloads, the raspi stuff is semiofficial20:43
yetithey are way smaller...20:43
hacksenwerk512mb https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/armel/iso-cd/20:43
hacksenwerkawesome!20:43
hacksenwerkbut you can alos have the dvd iso with 4.3gb x) https://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/current/armel/iso-dvd/20:45
yetihttps://raspi.debian.net/daily-images/ <<< the raspi manager is hibernating.  RL striekes back20:45
yetibut it still works.20:46
yetimy last try for cubietruck failed.  the image didnt accept the keyboard and I wasnt in the mood to attach a usb-uart to the real console pins20:47
hacksenwerkwait the isos are not for rpi?20:47
yetinope.20:47
hacksenwerkah sure arm comes also with some laptops...20:47
hacksenwerkI always associate them with sbc20:48
hacksenwerkxP20:48
yetihttps://salsa.debian.org/raspi-team/image-specs <<< that's currently looking for a new boss too.20:50
yetimaybe debian and devuan can use the same tool with just different configs to generate the PI images20:50
yetisynergies...20:51
yeti#debian-raspberrypi is on oftc20:53
hacksenwerkyeti: good to know21:00
hacksenwerklol21:02
hacksenwerkhttps://raspi.debian.net/daily-images/ Debian 12 Stable for rpi 2.5 gb21:03
hacksenwerkits the same...21:03
hacksenwerkyeti: So that doesn't make any sense then...21:04
yetihttps://raspi.debian.net/daily-images/21:06
hacksenwerkyeti: I linked that...21:07
hacksenwerkThe image files there are xz compressed and ~ 120 MB. after decompress they are 2.5GB21:08
hacksenwerkThat's the same size the devuan images have.21:08
hacksenwerkSo it doesn't make any sense to use them and then migrate...21:09
yetiCompressed image  121.89 MB21:09
yetiis what I see21:09
hacksenwerkyes... and?21:09
yetiwhats the problem?  use th tar files if you want other partition sizes?21:10
hacksenwerklol21:12
yetiI use them because I get a boring de??an without blingbling that way and will get no surprises because an image painting artist added nonstandard stuff.  that's the reason why I prefer those.21:12
hacksenwerk20:43 < yeti> they are way smaller...21:13
hacksenwerkthey are not :P21:13
yetiyou mentioned 2,5G and I thought you were talking about complete desktop images21:13
hacksenwerkyeah.. bling bling, but I did not talk about bling bling I talked about bloat bloat21:13
hacksenwerkyeti: no I linked it21:13
hacksenwerk21:03 < hacksenwerk> https://raspi.debian.net/daily-images/ Debian 12 Stable for rpi 2.5 gb21:13
yeti1741721348      hacksenwerk     Why are the images so bloated?21:16
yeti1741721425      hacksenwerk     2.6GB for the rpi 1 ...21:16
hacksenwerkThat was earlier21:17
hacksenwerkAnd you respond to that, that debian images are way smaller21:17
yetiI read that as used space, not as the mostly empty partitions21:18
hacksenwerkyeti: dude! the image! the image is that size21:18
hacksenwerkx)21:18
yeti<-- silent now.21:19
hacksenwerkWhen I detar those debian tarballs I get tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors21:21
hacksenwerkI'm done with that.21:22
hacksenwerkdebiana arm images are bloated, the tarballs are broken21:22
