22:07 <jannau> chadmed_: genkernel looks to me even more annoying for providing a good default config for initramfs modules. --all-initramfs-modules is annoying as well for everything which needs firmware

22:08 <jannau> on the bright note I

22:09 <jannau> finally have an initramfs that unlocks my encrypted "root" partition

22:11 <chadmed_> yeah i'm not really vibing with genkernel, now that we know what was causing the issues im considering going back to dracut for our tooling. i like that you can just dump the config file into /etc/dracut and forget about it

22:11 <chadmed_> it's also very slow

22:14 <jannau> genkernel's speed is ok-ish when doesn't builds the tools included in the initramfs

22:37 <rkjnsn> I switched to dracut on my Gentoo installation a while back and was much happier with it. NixOS's makes it even easier to do weird stuff, though.

22:38 <chadmed_> we were using dracut initially but i thought it was having trouble loading kernel modules properly resulting in unbootable systems

22:39 <chadmed_> the real problem was kmod exploding when built with clang

22:54 <leif> I noticed this package was recently created: https://github.com/AsahiLinux/PKGBUILDs/tree/main/lzfse does anyone know what the use case for lzfse is?

22:56 <leif> cool, thanks
