Finally getting around to updating my server to #Yunohost. I was using #ArchLinux ARM, but I installed the wrong version, and never r really got around to reinstalling it, because I remembered what a hassle it was setting everything up.
Here's hoping I'll be able to set up something running on #Debian, it's been a long time since I touched anything not Arch-based.
@yunohost
@mirabilos @yunohost Ah, right... Gparted calls it msdos, but it's more commonly known as MBR I suppose 🤷
Still trying to get the thing to boot, of course... Probably something with the partition flags, I'm thinking.

mirabilos.txt mention, I guess an RPi… I believe they need an MBR partition with a normal FAT filesystem to boot.@mirabilos @yunohost Oh... Well, that would certainly explain some things 🙈 Indeed, I use a RPi 4.
I did find that recent firmware updates added GPT support to the RPi, so before I give up and use MBR after all I'll give that a try 😅
@mirabilos @yunohost Welp, turned out getting it to work with GPT is more a theoretical possibility than something that's actually achievable. I needed to create a virtual MBR thing within the GPT and... Well, long story short—I tried and failed.
But fine, it's now running with MBR. And it was a much smaller PITA than by manually doing everything on Arch! Obviously I don't learn as much this way, but given I did once get it to work I say I'm allowed that. Thanks for the hints, @mirabilos!
