| carbonzero | got a question about the zsync version of the ISO image of 19.04. Do I just make a startup USB drive like normal and install it and go through the tweaks that I normally do? | 00:28 |
|---|---|---|
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> carbonzero, correct, regardless of how you download the ISO, they can all be treated the same with USB creation. | 00:36 |
| carbonzero | IrcsomeBot, ok. So if I install the zsync version I'll get the whole ISO image like usual? | 00:36 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> correct. | 00:37 |
| carbonzero | cool! thanks! | 00:37 |
| carbonzero | I'm going to do that now so I've got that since it was stressed to me to use zsync for testing purposes. Rock on. | 00:37 |
| IrcsomeBot | <DarinMiller> BTW, I am using a Telegram bridge to IRC which is uses an IRC robot (aka ircsomebot). | 00:38 |

| fructose | What's the 'correct' way to change your default browser? | 00:58 |
| valorie | in systemsettings I think | 00:59 |
| valorie | i just type `default` into krunner (alt+space) and it gives me the choice | 00:59 |
| carbonzero | valorie, hey! I installed zsync by way of command line. I downloaded the zsync version of the ISO and I was trying to create a startup USB drive to install it but my startup disc creator program doesn't see the download. | 01:00 |
| valorie | carbonzero: did you read my blog post? | 01:00 |
| fructose | valorie: Maybe I need to restart, but it doesn't seem to take effect. | 01:01 |
| valorie | I gave the approximate cli command you need | 01:01 |
| carbonzero | valorie, yeah, I did. I'll have to read it again to see if I understand it better. | 01:01 |
| valorie | no, you need to tell it "look at this file" and "make that file" | 01:01 |
| valorie | it's very fiddly | 01:01 |
| carbonzero | valorie, ha, yeah, looks like it. | 01:01 |
| valorie | I tried over and over until I got it right | 01:02 |
| carbonzero | if it wants to be fiddly I'll just give it a violin, jeez. | 01:02 |
| valorie | in the commandline, up-arrow is key | 01:02 |
| carbonzero | valorie, lol. looks like I'm going to be doing the same thing | 01:02 |
| valorie | rather than typing or copy/pasting all the time | 01:02 |
| valorie | once you get the path correct | 01:02 |
| valorie | and the names correct | 01:02 |
| valorie | you're gold | 01:03 |
| valorie | until then it just ignores you like an angry teenager | 01:03 |
| carbonzero | valorie, lmao HA! ignores you like an angry teenager. bwahahahaha that's funny! | 01:07 |
| valorie | I was that angry teen! | 01:07 |
| valorie | and had a few too | 01:07 |
| valorie | :-) | 01:07 |
| carbonzero | valorie, same here! just one. and only one. thank the coding gods! | 01:08 |
| carbonzero | no offense to those who've got more than one child | 01:08 |
| valorie | now how can there be coding gods if there are bugs? | 01:09 |
| carbonzero | valorie, *rubs forehead* aye aye aye got me there. | 01:11 |

| carbonzero | valorie, so let me ask you this. Do I need an ISO image downloaded and just sitting there and then go through the steps on your blog? | 01:17 |
| carbonzero | I've got the beta installed now, though. | 01:17 |
| valorie | yes -- you can use the beta image | 01:17 |
| valorie | you have to dl something once | 01:17 |
| valorie | and since I seed all the torrents, I have 'em all | 01:18 |
| valorie | the older they are, the more useless zsync is | 01:18 |
| carbonzero | ok. | 01:18 |
| valorie | because the more diffs | 01:18 |
| valorie | but people who dailies, it's a super timesaver | 01:18 |
| valorie | who test dailies I mean | 01:18 |
| carbonzero | so I'd have to download a new daily build every day and it makes all of the changes right then to my computer? without having to reinstall anything? | 01:20 |
| carbonzero | I've never used this before as you can tell and I'm learning | 01:20 |
| valorie | no, if you do it once, then you just zsync it every few days | 01:20 |
| valorie | whenever you want to test | 01:21 |
| valorie | sometimes there are no changes | 01:21 |
| valorie | or just a few | 01:21 |
| carbonzero | ok, I see. | 01:21 |
| valorie | all my "expertise" is in that blog post and the previous one | 01:21 |
| valorie | I write my blog so I won't forget | 01:21 |
| valorie | :-) | 01:21 |
| valorie | if someone else finds it useful, great | 01:22 |
| valorie | but it's mostly for me | 01:22 |

| OerHeks | one can use the -d option now, development version, to get to 19.04 beta | 16:29 |
| IrcsomeBot3 | <acheronuk> Only cosmic 18.10 can be upgraded sirectly to 19.04 | 16:29 |
| IrcsomeBot3 | <acheronuk> *directly | 16:29 |

| carbonzero | valorie, or anybody really. I've got zsync going now and I was able to figure out what to do and I ran zsync in Konsole and it's downloaded and entire iso since I didn't have one to start with. Just to make sure I understand this correctly, let's say that I run zsync on Tuesday with the new daily live and let's say there's been some changes. Now, will those changes, the differences, will those be | 22:07 |
| carbonzero | installed automatically without any input from me? | 22:07 |
| valorie | if you have the commandline correct, and run in the correct dir | 22:08 |
| carbonzero | I've got the downloaded ISO in Downloads and so I'd have to be in Downloads to start with? | 22:08 |
| carbonzero | and then from there I run zsync and it downloads whatever changes there might be and installs them from there? | 22:09 |
| carbonzero | I read your blog a few times to grasp it and the only question was what to do with any changes that might get downloaded. Create a new startup USB drive and reinstall or does it install those changes automatically? | 22:11 |
| valorie | you have to reburn the new ISO | 22:14 |
| valorie | you might pick up something from the previous blog post about it | 22:15 |
| valorie | I think it's linked in there | 22:15 |
