| 14:00 | <Hyperbyte> Hey alkisg! Did I read correctly and has the new LTSP abandoned nbd completely in favour of nfs?

| 14:51 | <alkisg> Hyperbyte: correct
| |
| 14:51 | NFS is much faster and stable
| |
| 15:09 | You can even reboot the server now, and have the clients continue normally after the server comes back
| |
| 15:12 | <fiesh> I thought it was nbd-over-nfs?!
| |
| 15:13 | but I guess it's not really nbd any more but just a squashfs image or so
| |
| 15:20 | <alkisg> fiesh: right, nbd-over-nfs doesn't make much sense; it's squashfs-over-nfs
| |
| 15:20 | Or chroot-over-nfs, this is supported as well
| |

| 15:26 | mgariepy has joined IRC (mgariepy!~mgariepy@ubuntu/member/mgariepy) | |
| 15:30 | <fiesh> right, but just calling it nfs was misleading to me since we don't have to actually mount the nfs as the root device
| |
| 15:30 | but rather use an image served over nfs
| |
| 15:30 | which is much better
| |
| 15:31 | that's what I meant

| 15:56 | <alkisg> Well, "root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=server:/srv/ltsp" in both cases, chroot or image; it's just that ltsp loop-mounts the image in ltsp-bottom, if ltsp.image=images/image.img is specified...
| |
| 15:58 | <fiesh> oh I see
| |
| 15:58 | so technically it's an NFS based root ;)

| 18:08 | <nikoh77> alkisg, can i have a multi architecture environment (client side) like Raspberry Pi and amd64 with same home's structure and same configuration files (server side).
| |
| 18:09 | <alkisg> nikoh77: sure
| |
| 18:10 | <nikoh77> ok, i must have just the kernel image to each arc, right?
| |
| 18:11 | <alkisg> A different chroot / image for each arch
| |
| 18:12 | <nikoh77> yes but i can syslink amd64 homes (for example) on rpi chroot?
| |
| 18:12 | to share data?
| |
| 18:16 | not entirely i think because application config and data files may not be perfectly the same.... right?
| |
| 18:17 | <fiesh> depends on the aplication
| |
| 18:17 | application
| |
| 18:18 | at least they're both little endian, so chances are there won't be too many issues
| |
| 18:19 | <nikoh77> yes i know, but there is a risk.... ok got it. Thanks
| |
| 18:20 | <fiesh> text files will be fine, binary files depend on the exact format
| |
| 18:20 | but I wouldn't expect say browser cache data to necessarily be cross-platform -- it's meant to be fast, not sacrifice speed for portability

| 18:57 | <alkisg> nikoh77: /home is served via sshfs
| |
| 18:57 | It's not per-chroot, its' per-server
| |
| 18:57 | I.e. it will work in all arches, without symlinks, automatically
| |
| 18:58 | Home is cross platform, it doesn't have issues on different arches
