| vkoskiv | Is there a known best NVMe for the Reform? i.e. lowest current draw, etc. | 02:41 |
|---|---|---|
| vkoskiv | I know the speed isn't critical with the 1x PCIe lane thing, but I'm probably going to go pick up a new SSD for this tomorrow. This intel one is no good. Constantly freezing. | 02:41 |
| vkoskiv | I was just reading the kernel boot log, and it shows 'KASLR disabled due to lack of seed' | 04:10 |
| vkoskiv | Is this intentional/expected? | 04:10 |

| minute | vkoskiv: there's a thread on nvmes on community | 12:40 |
| Asmadeus | vkoskiv: for kaslr the seed needs to come from uboot as the kernel cannot use the caam (crypto engine that has RNG) at that point in the boot; there might be an implementation around that does it but I haven't been looking specifically (yet) | 13:02 |
| Asmadeus | That's on my todo though so if you find one I'll take it :) | 13:02 |
| josch | vkoskiv: I don't think anybody ever compared the power draw of multiple nvme drivers that are confirmed working with the reform | 13:20 |
| josch | I'd expect the power draw differences to be minimal though. Is there a reason to think otherwise? | 13:20 |
| josch | When I chose my ssd I just looked for the most storage per EUR and then confirmed that the drive was not listed as known-broken in the forum thread. | 13:21 |

| vkoskiv | i can't find any ssds mentioned in the thread here | 17:30 |
| vkoskiv | i grabbed a wd blue sn570 1TB, hopefully that will work... | 17:31 |
| sigrid | vkoskiv: it will, I have that one | 17:40 |
| vkoskiv | thanks! | 17:43 |
| josch | I have a WD Blue SN550 which works fine. Once you tested the sn570 make sure to leave feedback here https://community.mnt.re/t/confirmed-working-nvme-drives/224 | 17:43 |

| vkoskiv | Yeah, I'll also mention the problems I had with my current Intel one | 18:30 |
| vkoskiv | I wonder what the easiest way is for me to migrate to this disk | 18:30 |
| vkoskiv | Can I just dd the contents and somehow mess with the encrypted lvm to expand it | 18:31 |
| vkoskiv | I did this exact thing a few months ago with my desktop, that time I think I just rebuilt the disk and then copied all the contents of the root volume over | 18:31 |
| josch | vkoskiv: if you do not dd but cp, you need to rebuild your initramfs because the partition uuids will differ | 18:36 |
| vkoskiv | I assume do that when chrooted to the new root volume? | 18:41 |
| vkoskiv | Seems to me like dd + resize2fs might be the easiest way | 18:46 |
| vkoskiv | (Assuming that works) | 18:46 |
| vkoskiv | Need to also resize the crypt thing first, of course | 18:46 |

| vkoskiv | System migrated! I ended up going the dd route and then resized everything to match the new drive. | 22:17 |
| vkoskiv | Only weirdness so far is that the R/W meter in waybar constantly shows it doing 100% writing | 22:17 |
| vkoskiv | Not sure where it gets that value from. Things work normally otherwise. | 22:18 |
| kfx | could probably look into it with iotop(1) or similar | 22:25 |
| vkoskiv | Nothing really appears there. Same on htop i/o tab | 22:26 |
| vkoskiv | Just small random reads/writes, what I would expect. | 22:27 |
| vkoskiv | I know reform-compstat makes that string using the psutil lib in python | 22:27 |
| vkoskiv | Speaking of which, it just randomly stopped doing that weirdness :D | 22:27 |
| vkoskiv | *shrug* | 22:30 |
| vkoskiv | I rebooted, it was still doing it, I opened $(which reform-compstat) in vim and it suddenly stopped | 22:30 |
| kfx | definitely gremlins | 22:48 |
| vkoskiv | Burst of cosmic rays, certainly. That meter works normally again. | 22:49 |
| vkoskiv | And no nvme timeouts anymore! And 750GB more space, too. | 22:50 |
| vkoskiv | I'll post results in the nvme drive thread after some testing. So far this drive seems to work much better. | 22:54 |
