✧✦Catherine✦✧the network card i'm poking at, which has two different CPU clusters with Linux running on it, apparently has eMMC and NVMe drives onboard
also it has docker^W containerd installed by default
the operating system is booted by grub??
Tobias@whitequark I mean, what should they do? Boot their linux via a tinier linux like IBM pesants? (looking at you, petitboot)
@krono the BMC does run Linux and is booting the main SoC
@whitequark 🤣 why grub then?
btw, what kind of bmc is it?
EDIT: nvm, I'm gonna look it up my self, no need to distract you
@whitequark O dear it *is* the BMC supermicro uses, too. I hope it is a newer, less...laggy variant.
@krono very dfiferent firmware
@whitequark I didn't know they made so different firmwares for the aspeed. interesting
elly@whitequark @krono BMC on a network card? 
This is giving me stronk "Bigfoot Killer 2100" vibes (NIC from ~2011 that had PowerPC SoC and used U-Boot and Linux, I have one of those)
