Stuff that makes things harder for me

Bắt đầu bằng việc đọc các phần tài liệu về UEFI/GRUB, chroot, runit và rc.conf, cùng với trang Rosetta Stone nếu trang đó vẫn còn tồn tại. Làm rõ hướng dẫn về kích thước phân vùng, các lệnh cho kho lưu trữ và kiến trúc musl, thiết lập dịch vụ chroot từ xa và trạng thái của rc.conf; công việc được xem là hoàn tất khi các thiếu sót tài liệu được yêu cầu này được giải quyết một cách nhất quán.

I was ask to voice my grievances, so here - we - go:

"UEFI booting with GRUB also requires a special partition of the type EFI System with a vfat filesystem mounted at /boot/efi. A reasonable size for this partition could be between 200MB and 1GB."

200MB to 1Gb? for /boot/efi? I would understand if it was /boot with the kernel it if it had 200MB, but even there 1GB? The kernel has 60mb, even says so in the documentation, right now. Do you think you need to store three of them at once? But it specifically said /boot/efi. Well, I listened to that, and now I have 156KB on a 799M partition.

In the Chroot part. It says you should choose your REPO, and later it says you have to set the Architecture. Well, I did it wrong apparently, because I set the variables as a user, but installed with sudo, and that's why I installed glibc instead of musl. That wouldn't have happened if it was mentioned that for musl you have to set the variables AND the repo url. Obvious to most of you, but I didn't know that. I thought, "de" in the repo name. Seems legit. Let's go! Changed the variables to x86_64-musl and installed via sudo xbps-install, but the variables I set as a user. You could tell people to look if musl or glibc is on the list of things to be installed.

Also why ARCH=x86_64-musl and then XBPS_ARCH=$ARCH? Why not XBPS_ARCH=x86_64-musl? And why $REPO? This could all be in one line. People copy it in there anyway.

This was a remote box for me, and if I hadn't done it before with Arch, I wouldn't have known that I also need to make sure that sshd and network was good to go. Obvious to you again, and this time to me as well, but not to others. Though what I didn't know, was that I had to ln -s things differently than when the system was actually running already. It's there in the runit section, but if it had been linked at least in the chroot section that would have been nice. I mean who uses chroot besides remote install people and when is the system also not running besides in a chroot?

rc.conf documentation is still a work in progress, right?

The rosetta stone page was really nice back in the day. Bring that back.
