09:49 Artox Exaga: I would like to see slackware on the cf
09:50 Artox but I have to admit I very likely won't be using it
13:05 flip 13:05 * flips might play with it :)
13:05 flips Slack was my second Linux distro, back in 94 or something
13:43 Exaga Artox: :D
13:44 Exaga i would like to see Slackware ARM on every arm device by default
13:44 Artox ofc
13:44 Artox today however I am fighting debian
13:45 Exaga lol good luck
13:45 Artox I am stuck on some very nasty issue
13:45 Artox rootfs on nfs
13:45 Artox then try to chroot and run apt in there
13:45 Artox it will complain that it can't lock /var/lib/dpkg
13:45 Artox :<
13:45 Artox apparently the chroot does not know it is on an nfs
13:45 Exaga well for debian there's always google :>
13:45 Artox and I have no idea how to add packages to that chroot
13:45 Artox there is no answer except for fix your NFS
13:45 Artox apparently noone uses chroot on nfs rootfs
13:46 Exaga how strange
13:46 Exaga i've got myself involved in trying to build an arm64 cross-compiler
13:47 Exaga and i've had to resort to debian to build it
13:47 Exaga because it's just *easier*
13:47 Artox :)
13:47 Artox did that a few days ago
13:47 Exaga successfully?
13:47 Artox so I decided to treat that new chroot as a real root
13:47 Artox put on nfs
13:47 Artox and boot into it :<
13:48 Artox yes, succesfully
13:48 Exaga good work ;)
13:48 Exaga what i'm doing is for a secret project nobody yet knows about
13:48 Artox hah
13:48 Exaga and i'm not going to advertise it until it's done
13:48 Artox my project isn't that secret
13:48 Artox but advertisement hasn't started
13:48 Exaga because if this works out it will be good
13:49 Artox will it run slackware?
13:49 Exag 13:49 * Exaga lips are sealed :D
13:50 Exaga it's a lot of time and effort right now
13:50 Exaga and there is a lot more time and effort to come
13:51 Artox I see
13:51 Exaga but the learning curve is huge and i am enjoying the experience
13:52 Exaga out of all the work i have already done i have never cross-compiled anything
13:52 Exaga so this is me starting off as a noob
13:52 Exaga haha :D
13:53 Artox feel free to ask for help cross-compiling hello-world
13:57 Exaga thank you Artox
13:57 Exaga it's not so much cross-compiling at the moment
13:58 Exaga i'm trying to build a gcc compiler that will compile arm64
13:58 Exaga and debian seems to be the easiest way to do ity
14:03 Exaga once that's done, the hard work starts lol
14:16 Artox perhaps
14:23 Artox So my NFS issue only exists with debian on debian
14:23 Artox if I boot suse with root on nfs, and then chroot to debian chroot also on nfs
14:23 Artox all good
14:24 Exaga cool
14:24 Artox aarch64 suse btw :D
14:25 Exaga haha nice :D
14:46 vpeter crostoolng doesn't work?
14:48 Artox it does?
14:49 Artox at least here
14:49 Artox thats what I used
14:49 vpeter for which device you need this compiler?
14:49 Artox I have a feeling Exaga doesn't want to tell
14:49 Artox I have it for the 8040
14:50 Exaga raspberry pi 3
14:50 Artox the challenge was building that cross-compiler on armhf
14:51 Exaga i need a gcc compiler on the rpi3 that will enable me to compile arm64
14:52 Exaga Artox: i sent you a priv msg :P
15:07 Artox Exaga: I have +g
19:13 agraf Exaga: talk to apritzel
19:14 agraf Exaga: I'm sure he'll be happy to help you out
19:14 agraf Exaga: he's the only slackware user I'm aware of, but he works for arm ;)
