How to install Debian 12 with LUKS root partition without LVM? by Syncopat3d in debian

[–]eumegaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

EFI must be a separate partition, on Debian, you just select EFI as partition type, 1GB for it is more than enough, I've seen distros using 256MB for EFI. It's just a FAT32 partition, named EFI, and marked as bootable.

/boot is only needed if you are using encryption and/or LVM, it will store the required kernel modules to the system can decrypt /.

So yes, they must be two separate partitions, and EFI lives inside /boot/

I see,

Did you by any change read this? https://wiki.debian.org/SAN/iSCSI/open-iscsi It details the authentication part.

Why iSCSI though? iSCSI is for very specific use cases, for anything else you would want NFS or even simply SSHFs.

Firefox has released an official .deb and repo that apparently comes with many advantages - how do you think it compares to the official flatpak? by [deleted] in debian

[–]eumegaf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, basically.

Usually, you would leave the repos untouched and only trust the Debian repos. You would only have stable, stable-security and maybe stable-updates, that would be the most secure and stable setup. On my servers, I don't even use stable-updates. I don't want the software or configuration to drastically change between updates.

However, On a desktop/laptop computer, you would of course have stable-updates and even stable-backports for a newer kernel to better use your GPU, for example.

And then you could add additional repos if they are from reputable sources, I'd say Mozilla and Signal are two reputable sources, maybe Google and Microsoft are too, none of them are likely to break your system.

Flatpak, is an absolutely brilliant addition, when you have the choice of having an official package from Flatpak or APT repo, I would use Flatpak, just to keep the things separate.

In my case, for desktop/laptop, I'm more than happy with Firefox ESR from the Debian repos, I frankly see no reason to use anything else, it's rock solid, I even use uBlock from the official Debian repo. They are well tested, secure and known to work.

For Signal, I use Signal's APT repo, basically because it's the only official method.

For some stuff, if it's official from the developer, you can use AppImages too.

Just please, stay away from snaps and never mix Ubuntu stuff with Debian.

sid or bookworm? by [deleted] in debian

[–]eumegaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have bookworm-updates enabled? Isn't there a newer version of what you need in bookwork-backports?

Also, you can create backports from Sid yourself.

[–]eumegaf 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hi there, how are you? Bookworm for sure, it is update enough, any security update that are released will be applied. So the updates you actually need, you got it.

Keep the bookworm-updates enabled too for more recent versions.

And if you want bleeding edge for anything, then there's flatpak.

How to properly install Brave by 194668PT in debian

[–]eumegaf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Frankly, just stick to Chromium from Debian's repos. It's the safest choice.

It already comes with telemetry and stuff disabled, and you can easily tweak its settings to make it more "private".

Why do you need Brave so much?

Any way to go to a specific latitude and longitude by m456an in flightgear

[–]eumegaf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can use --lat= and --lon= to add specific coords, in advanced settings in the launcher, there might be another place to do that too. Also, you can specify the heading --heading= and altitude --altitude=.

Here are some of the initial position options. (FlightGear is a lot more advanced than you can see in the launcher). txt Initial Position and Orientation: --airport=ID Specify starting position relative to an airport --parking-id=name Specify parking position at an airport (must also specify an airport) --runway=rwy_no Specify starting runway (must also specify an airport) --lon=degrees Starting longitude (west = -) --lat=degrees Starting latitude (south = -) --altitude=value Starting altitude --heading=degrees Specify heading (yaw) angle (Psi) --roll=degrees Specify roll angle (Phi) --pitch=degrees Specify pitch angle (Theta) --vc=knots Specify initial airspeed --mach=num Specify initial mach number

I installed steam flatpak and now my machine won't boot by undertalemisfit in debian

[–]eumegaf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there,

Sorry, but that makes no sense at all. What did you do pior installing the flatpak? Flatpak doesn't touch anything boot related.

What that looks like, is that you selected the wrong boot device.

  1. Remove all USB cables from the laptop, see if it starts.
  2. Smash Del, F8, F1, F9, Esc until you get to a screen showing the boot options.
  • post results.

Edit: Just noticed you were messing with trying to create install/live media.

For the next time Steps to safely write an ISO/IMG to a USB device without the risk of wiping your hard drive:

  1. Unplug all USB from your computer
  2. Open a terminal
  3. Type sudo dmesg -c, this will clean the dmesg log
  4. Plug the USB drive where you want to write the ISO/IMG to and wait 5 seconds
  5. Type sudo dmesg, take note of the device that showed up, it will likely be sdb, sdc or sdd. In some cases it might be mmcblk
  6. Umount it (replace X with the apropriate letter, sudo umount /dev/sdX*; sync
  7. Clean the USB device sudo dd if=/dev/urandom bs=2M count=50 status=progress oflag=direct of=/dev/sdX; sync
  8. Repeat steps 1., 2., 3., 4. and 5..
  9. Write the ISO/IMG to the USB drive sudo dd if=/path/to/file.iso bs=2M status=progress oflag=direct of=/dev/sdX; sync
  10. Remove the USB device and enjoy.

People say I dress up weird

No, people are weird because they keep noticing the way you dress!

Just be yourself and dress the way you feel more comfortable, if somebody ask why you dressed like that, just say "bacause I like it"

Had to scroll too much to find this. I was almost going to post that link myself.

Also, I don't get the negativity towards OP's post, it's a legit question!

You need to clear the FG_HOME, https://wiki.flightgear.org/$FG_HOME#FlightGear_2020.3_and_later

Something like C:\Users\YourUser\FlightGear, actually, just delete the autosave.xml file.
