<r0ni> so i dunno what actually is doing this, i assume pkgmk does, but on x86 it replaces say 6.12.41 in footprints with <kernel-version> but it don't do it on arm, i thought i was being slick by replacing distinct versions in a footprint with <kernel-version> only it makes a footprint fail on arm
<jaeger> If I remember right it's only doing that if $(uname -r) matches
<jaeger> Been a while since I looked at that, though
<r0ni> but i just spent like an hour watching youtube vids on firefox in xfce on crux-arm rpi5 and sound and all is working great (tho maybe vid accel could be better)... it's working pretty good
<r0ni> hrmm i'll have to check what uname -r reports on it
<jaeger> nice
<r0ni> i set the script to do version-CRUX so like 6.12.41-CRUX
<r0ni> maybe in the future I'll change that to just the version number

<r0ni> not too many distros can claim support for rpi5 even after all this time, so crux is one of the few. now all i gotta go is hack the iso to work on arm64 heh (I may be too dense for that)
<cruxbridge> <pitillo (@pitillo:crux.nu)> Yesterday I found something interesting regarding the iso. Check genimage because it could be a good option and probably more versatile than an iso, aimed for embedded architectures.
<cruxbridge> <pitillo (@pitillo:crux.nu)> genimage takes a template to create all needed partitions (this is so good for all the specific device needs) and deploy a bootfs and a rootfs in the specific ones… so there are many options there, adapting for different devices and providing different rootfs (from a simple core collection to a more elaborated collections sets)

<r0ni> pitillo: thanks I'll take a look at genimage
<pitillo> you are welcome r0ni
