FYI this issue is due to fallocate creating files with holes (found via

[gentoo-user] Encrypting a hard drive's data. Best method.

2020-06-05 Thread Dale
Howdy,

I think I got a old 3TB hard drive to work.  After dd'ing it, redoing
partitions and such, it seems to be working.  Right now, I'm copying a
bunch of data to it to see how it holds up.  Oh, it's a PMR drive too. 
lol  Once I'm pretty sure it is alive and working well, I want to play
with encryption.  At some point, I plan to encrypt /home.  I found a bit
of info with startpage but some is dated.  This is one link that seems
to be from this year, at least updated this year. 

https://linoxide.com/linux-how-to/encrypt-linux-filesystem/

It seems like a nice one since it has commands and what it should look
like when it is performing the commands.  I like knowing what I'm doing
sort of matches what the howto shows.  It also seems to use LVM which I
will be using as well.  I think I can follow that and get a working
encrypted storage.  Later, I can attempt this on /home without doing it
blind.  I also have the options in the kernel as well.  I'll post them
at the bottom.  I enabled quite a lot a while back.  ;-) 

Is this a secure method or is there a more secure way?  Is there any
known issues with using this?  Anyone here use this method?  Keep in
mind, LVM.  BTFRS, SP?, may come later. 

One other question, can one change the password every once in a while? 
Or once set, you stuck with it from then on? 

If anyone has links to even better howtos, I'd love to check them out. 

Dale

While sad, this is sort of funny.  It confirms my thinking tho, a hard
drive screw is not a hard drive screw unless it says Dell, Gateway, WD,
Seagate, Toshiba etc etc etc on it.  This means I may have to buy one of
those divider thingys that is larger just for me to be able to keep the
hard drive screws separate, since they are different. 

We have reds, purples, greens and all sort of color codes for hard
drives, maybe they need to color code their screws as well.  :/ 

Now to go find a grab bag or something.  This sucks.

P. S. It seems those older not working enclosures may have caused issues

[gentoo-user] Hard drive screws

2020-06-05 Thread Dale
Howdy,

I know this sounds like a silly question and I never thought I would
have to ask such a basic question like this.  I bought a external hard
drive enclosure and was trying to install a hard drive I had laying
around.  The screws that come with the enclosure doesn't fit.  The
screws have a coarse thread and it seems the drive case has fine
threads.  It's the only screws that come with it so it has to be for
that purpose.  Anyway, I dug around my screw bin and found a few screws
that fit better but still not quite right.  I went to ebay and typed in
100 hard drive screws.  I want to buy a bag of them to have around when
I need them.  It's amazing what I got for results.  Some list a brand
they fit.  Some say laptop, few mention a desktop system.  Looking at
pics, some seem to be coarse thread, some sort of fine thread.  Some
standard, some metric.  Some are phillips head and some look like allen
type or star type heads.  I'm sitting here wondering, is this nuts or
what?  Pardon the pun there.  It's just crazy.  lol

Is there not a standard sized screw that should fit all 3.5" and even
2.5" drives??  Whether they are spinning rust, SSD or the outdated
floppy drives.  Are they THAT different or are the pictures misleading? 
If there is a standard or does WD take one size screw while Seagate
takes another and Toshiba yet another?  If someone has found a size that
fits them all, could you please share the sizes or a link so I can have
something to go by?  I already have a few hundred screws that don't
fit.  I really don't need yet another 100 to add to the don't fit

What happened to the simple days where things would just fit like they
should??  ^_O

I use make install. If I trust the makefile to build the kernel and it's
module tree, and copy the modules to the correct location, why wouldn't I
trust it to copy a single file to /boot at the same time?

cd /usr/src/linux

dracut --kver=$(cat include/config/kernel.release)

It doesn't get much easier ;-)

dracut uses an initramfs naming convention recognised by grub-mkconfig.

When you install your kernel, do you use make install or do you copy the
kernel to /boot manually?  I do mine manually but also copy it manually
as well.  That makes it hard for me to recall how to use the dracut
command.  It requires a kernel version etc etc. 

If you do copy yours manually to /boot, what command do you use for
dracut?  Maybe I'm doing it a hard way or something and you have a
easier method.

I would keep GCC 9 for now. I've run into a few issues with GCC 10  
compiling various packages so I have kept GCC 9 on my system. There's  
not some serious detriment to not using GCC 10 for 99% of people.  
Most distros still use an older version.


Also, have you considered trying Dracut for initramfs generation? I  
don't know how well it works with genkernel as I don't use that (I  
manually configure my kernels).


Thanks for the suggestion, and I do still have gcc-9.3 installed.   
However, when gcc-10 was marked stable, I worked on recompiling almost  
my entire system with it.  I have very few packages that simply can't  
deal with it yet, and I suspect a few of those are not sufficiently  
supported at all that they have a good chance of getting tree-cleaned.   
Sort of parallel to getting rid of python-2.


I used to do all my kernel configuration and setup manually on my old  
box (with legacy grub).  When I upgraded to my new PC with a Ryzen 5  
2600 and started using lvm, I ended up needing an initramfs, and  
managed to get genkernel working for me, without TOO much of an  
effort.  Right now, it's run genkernel, and when I'm happy, run  
grub-mkconfig, and it works.  If I ever go to a manually crafted  
grub.cfg, I might consider a different way of creating my intramfs, but  
I'd rather not introduce yet another moving part if I don't really need  
to.


Anyway, I'm writing this running my shiny new 5.7 kernel,  having run  
genkernel with --no-gpg.  I had not explicitly turned that on; I  
suppose it's just the default, unless I missed something in the config  
file.

[gentoo-user] new genkernel problem

2020-06-05 Thread Jack
I'm currently running a 5.6.10 kernel, compiled with genkernel along  
with an initramfs.  That was compiled with gcc-9.3.0.  Since then,  
using gcc-10.1.0, I have not successfully run genkernel.  Initially it  
was kernel compile failures due to the -fnocommon bug.  With a patch,  
the kernel compile completed fine, and the patch is no longer needed  
for 5.6.16 or 5.7.0.  However, all recent attempts at running genkernel  
fail during creation of initramfs.  (This is genkernel-, re-emerged  
yesterday.)

and, of course, I wouldn't really expect gcc-10 to be able to compile  
gnupg-1.4.23.  (The detailed log does show the multiple definition  
errors.)  That version of gnupg  is coded in the ebuild, so hopefully  
there is SOME reason for selecting it.  Also - I now see that I can  
give --no-gpg to genkernel to omit gnupg from the initramfs - that's  
running now.


I'd be surprised if I am really the only one facing this, but I haven't  
found any other reports.  (It's quite possible my search-fu isn't.)  I  
don't know exactly when this started showing up, since I THOUGHT I had  
run genkernel successfully since then, but although there are several  
vmlinuz and sysmap files in /boot, there is only the single initramfs  
which I currently boot with.


Thanks for any thoughts or suggestions.

Hello,

I'm usually using app-misc/jq for all my json needs. It isn't exactly a json
pretty-printer but more of a swiss army knife for extracting data from json. It
does formatting, tho :)

You could also try your Web User Agent. My Firefox already does format json, so
maybe you could try open it there if you just want to read it.

[gentoo-user] Got a json file from YouTube...

Hi,

via https://youtuberandomcomment.com/ ->Download all is it possible
to download all comments of a YouTube-Videoas a json file, which
contains exactly one, very long line.

This is exactly the formatting I would prefer to read
threaded comments ;

Is there something in portage, which is recommended to 
reformat/display this json-input into something more 
readable...?

Cheers!
Meino

That backtrace is in the OP's original post.  The first one doesn't give
much of one, none really.  The second one gives a list of packages. 
Either way, it was a circular problem.  It seems the emerge --info for
the package gave the clue which I don't see anywhere in the output of
emerge.

Except that etc-update also adds a backtrace as comments, allowing him to
trace the cause.
