02:05 aamanuel Hi, is it ok to ask about clearfog here?
08:49 topi` aamanuel: definitely. but some folks are still on vacatioms..
14:30 topi` Artox: do we still have to use MBR partitioning with the HB/HB2?
14:30 topi` last time I looked, the UBOOT couldn't handle GPT partitions
14:31 topi` and, there is the additional complication that the GPT ptable cannot reside at sector #34 because that's where the UBOOT needs to be
15:01 Artox topi`, I do not know
15:01 Artox jnettlet should though
15:05 Artox the question is if the bootrom looks only at that sector, or at others too
15:05 Artox if it does, perhaps a shim can be placed somewhere
15:14 topi` usually the bootroms look at various sectors, so that the problem of one bad sector can be mitigated
15:14 topi` that's how it worked with TI OMAP3 , back in 2006 :)
15:22 topi` but I will proceed with this Ubuntu Core thingy, because we need to make up our mind really soon whether we go Ubuntu Core or an ordinary Debian with OStree on top of it
15:22 topi` OSTree is made by the GNOME folks
