#1 Re: Installation » cloud-init does not set IP » 2025-12-19 11:49:01

I edited the /etc/cloud/cloud.cfg (which by default does really a lot).

Possible to share this?

#2 Re: Installation » cloud-init does not set IP » 2025-12-19 11:47:41

things to check:
1) does /etc/network/interfaces a line like `include interfaces.d/*` ?
2) make sure there aren't another stanza for eth0 in /etc/network/interfaces

Thank you all!!
Yeah, missed those pages, now I can go convert some...

Q: Any have an ansible playbook handy to do these ?

Good day,

I'm doing quite a number of VPS deploys across various providers for anycast type reasons, and... Debian is always there... just me wanting Devuan obviously...

So: Is there some "how-to" to do a Debian-> Devuan conversion?
Typically it'll be Bookworm (Trixie still "new"), but just wondering about any gotchas documented my searchAIfu haven't yet find?

#5 Re: Devuan » Debian looking to integrate systemd-boot » 2025-10-16 22:23:25

systemd-boot is not "integrated" in systemd (the init pid 0 replacement) in the same way, just a BOOT LOADER, and the experience I've had with it in ProxMox PVE & PBS, it is a great piece of software in the UEFI and ZFS world!!

I wished that Debian would include ZFS and this systemd-boot as first class members....

#6 Re: Devuan » Excalibur Release Date » 2025-10-16 22:04:57

May I ask the question a different way: Where can we see the blockers/outstanding issues?

How could I assist?

#7 Re: Other Issues » ifupdown2 - init script missing » 2025-05-17 23:11:38

This still seems to be broken on Devuan 5 ;(

Good day,

Is there somebody that already does prebuild cloudimage / cloudinit images ?
like https://cloud-images.ubuntu.com/ & https://cdimage.debian.org/images/cloud/

#9 Re: Devuan » ZFSonLinux binaries like Ubuntu?? » 2017-07-24 15:52:59

The zfs-dkms is in jessie-backports, but I'm looking to have more already compiled binaries (per kernel) included as I don't always like the idea of compilers on production servers/instances wink
and to consider having more bleeding edge (-rc type) options available (there are a few interesting changes coming in 0.7.0- vs 0.6.x w.r.t. memory handling that is an issue in linux vs solaris for ZFS)

#10 Re: Devuan » ZFSonLinux binaries like Ubuntu?? » 2017-07-24 15:44:02

Hi golinux, thanks for the references, however the question is more about the licensing etc. and if that is "allowed" then I could consider getting involved in doing packages for Devuan for the ZFSonLinux. Hoever  I notice now that devuan appears to be only tracking/following what Debian does (except remove SystemD stuff), so I don't think that'll help to even get involved in this way.

The issue with ZFS is the CDDL https://opensource.org/licenses/CDDL-1.0 not GPL "compatible" so while Devuan is "Strictly" tracking Debian, it won't be a "blessed" integration then.

Good day,

Philosophical question: Will ZFS binaries be "allowed" in Devuan main/non-free/contrib, or will the same strictness apply as per Debian?

I'm asking as it happens to be "easier" to have Ubuntu based ZFS systems (especially root/boot) than Debian.
