| 17:27 | vandebo has joined IRC (vandebo!~vandebo@abydos.nerdbox.net) | |
| 17:36 | <vandebo> In ltsp20 is there a persistent overlay mode? I'm migrating some old diskless mythtbuntu frontends that used nbd squashfs from a chroot overlayed with writable NFS.
| |
| 17:44 | <alkisg> vandebo: so the goal is that is client could have different programs etc?
| |
| 17:46 | <vandebo> Possibly yes - The same base image with small, but inconsistent variations
| |
| 17:47 | I have an idea on how to make it work, but if there's a suggested/supported mode in the new ltsp, I'd take that route
| |
| 17:56 | <alkisg> But then updating the base image would break all child variations
| |
| 17:57 | <vandebo> Not in most cases - many packages don't interact. Besides, it's how this system was working.
| |
| 18:00 | <alkisg> I mean, it's not an interesting use case that upstream devs would go into lengths to support
| |
| 18:00 | That said, it should be doable with a couple of POST_INIT commands
| |
| 18:01 | *POST_INITRD_BOTTOM commands
| |
| 18:01 | <vandebo> I've tried a couple different layerings with overlayfs without success. What kind of FSs would you suggest?
| |
| 18:02 | <alkisg> nfs as top overlay broke at some point, i think they restored it later
| |
| 18:03 | It's not an interesting use case so I haven't looked into it
| |
| 18:03 | <vandebo> as of 5.3 it's still broken
| |
| 18:03 | Ok, that was the root of my question. Thanks for your time.
| |
| 18:05 | (My next attempt is a writable nbd upper layer)
| |
| 18:08 | <alkisg> vandebo: I would probably go with nbd cow for your case
| |
| 18:09 | writeable
| |
| 18:11 | <vandebo> nbd-server man page says that cow option removes the file with changes on disconnect
| |
| 18:12 | <alkisg> I think xnbd-server does support it though
| |
| 18:12 | Btw, we usually just put all possible programs in chroots, and disable the ones we don't need on boot
| |
| 18:14 | <vandebo> man page for xnbd says similar, cow file is removed on server shutdown

| 18:33 | <alkisg> Eh well, then you could overlay 2 nbd images, a read and a writteable one
| |
| 19:00 | * alkisg does remember a cache image for the cow part of xnbd... strange | |

| 23:11 | <emanuel-pont> Hi everyone.
| |
| 23:12 | I have a question, is it possible to install ltsp server in mikrotik?
| |
| 23:13 | I have googled it, but nothing show up.
