[00:02] Ok. I am trying the installer again. The installer seems to just be sitting ther on "Installation type" screen where you select the disk. I selected the SSD (had selected use entire disk previous screen), and clicked Install now. The install button is grayed out, but the back button is not. I am nto seeing any activity from the harddrive light [00:03] brb 5 mins [00:12] ok back [00:12] xrandr: press ctrl-alt-t to spawn a terminal window and type: dmesg --follow tell us whether there are anything looking like errors are being printed there, and if so, post them to a pastebin or termbin.com [00:12] ok [00:13] I see a lot of Buffer I/O error on dev dm-2 [00:13] xrandr: bad drive [00:14] but it's brand new [00:14] just got it today [00:14] bad cable? SATA port? [00:15] usually that's a hardware problem (which can mean just bad cable or badly seated). though could be firmware, too. [00:20] running lsblk /dev/dm-2 may provide a better understanding of which block device you're seeing the errors with. [00:24] xrandr: there is a chance that the LVM you had there previously was activated automatically be the installer and, if it's badly configured/has inconsistent metadata, it could possibly result in those errors as well. [00:27] xrandr: i would suggest to boot to the live cd system, ensure all LVMs and other block device layers referring to the installation target are disabled, and (install and) use wipefs --all against the target device, then reboot, and try installing again. [00:29] tomreyn, i did something similar. I booted into the install media, did tru ubuntu, and opened the Disks app. I removed all the partitions frm /dev/sdc which is the SSD, then clicked on Install Ubuntu. No buffer errors, but still no movement from that screeen [00:29] i wonder if it is having an issue with refind? I had that installed to be the bootloader. [00:32] unlikely at this stage. more likely, your installer image wasn't written to the installer media properly. [00:35] i can always use another installer [00:35] no need to use a different installer, you just need one which isn't a broken copy. [00:36] did you have it run the self-test on boot? [00:36] which ubuntu, apparently desktop, version are you installing actually, on which hardware? [00:36] didnt see an option for it [00:36] but i do know it took awhile to write the iso to USB [00:38] on current ubuntu releases, the desktop installer would run the self-test automatically [00:40] i think i am going to download a new image and use it to install ubuntu [00:40] maybe it'll help [00:40] how did you write the iso to the usb stick last time? [00:41] !md5sum | xrandr [00:41] xrandr: To verify your Ubuntu ISO image (or other files for which a checksum is provided), see https://ubuntu.com/tutorials/how-to-verify-ubuntu [00:41] rufus [00:41] from windows [00:42] note that you should both verify the downloaded iso against the checksum, and then the data written to the installer media against the iso [00:42] balena etcher is a software which does the latter automatically, by default. [00:43] (and is available on the more common operating systems) [00:52] brb - rebooting router and modem === xrandr2 is now known as xrandr [00:58] well, that was fun [00:58] gonna use balena etcher to write the iso [00:58] and see what that does === xrandr is now known as xrandr_win [01:06] Will balena etcher (Free version) write the iso to the usb drive so that it boots as GPT and not MBR (so it uses UEFI)? [01:07] xrandr_win: you still haven't told what you're trying to install, or what the iso file is exactly. [01:08] ubuntu desktop 22 LTS [01:16] xrandr_win: the Ubuntu 22.04 LTS ISO files for amd64 are hybrid images for both uefi and (legacy) bios booting, and balena etcher would write them as such. [01:17] ty [01:18] you should first verify the iso against the checksum, then write the iso to the usb stick and have that verified [01:27] tomreyn, i verified the installer against the md5, and had balena verify the iso at the end. I am stuck at the same spot in the installer. There isn;t anything in dmesg, and looking at the install log, it isn't doing anything. [01:28] there is no md5 [01:28] syslog is showing stuff tho [01:29] like, letters and numbers, and special characters, i assume? [01:29] so i guess i'll just wait to see if it eventually goes forward [01:29] have you done the wipefs i had suggested? [01:29] what hardware are you installing on? [01:30] zsysd.service: Deactivated successfully. [01:30] I did do the wipefs [01:30] on both drives. the ssd and the hdd === noah_ is now known as luludoggo [01:31] Hi === luludoggo is now known as doggo [01:33] doggo: hi. please limit your nickname changes while on this channel.

[02:00] MinusSeven, are we talking just files, or a disk image backup? [02:00] files [02:01] borgbackup, restic, bacula [02:01] I'll have a look at those [02:01] I'm a fan of borg [02:02] MinusSeven, where do you want to backup to? external drive, remote server? [02:02] external drive, via vmware shared drive [02:03] use tar/cp in a shell script. [02:03] or..i like UrBackup [02:03] at the moment, I'm using tar [02:10] I'll try Borgbackup [02:18] aah...back in linux [02:20] life is good again lol [02:24] xrandr++ [02:25] Unfortunately I have slipped to the Dark Side.

I have a question concerning propbably apache or dns configuration. Trying to manage my local network. I have a dedicated server and router in my local network. The server is running latest LTS Ubuntu, Apache2 and nextcloud (and other services of course). The router has dnsmasq (not sure if relevant). nextcloud is found under html folder, so I [12:30] can reach nextcloud by https://myserver.local/nextcloud. I would like to reach it under https://nextcloud.home essentially hiding from users the difference whether it is a different server or subsite. Is that possible? [12:31] Oh, sorry mixed up local und home, it's is the same domain, sorry. [12:31] So target is https://nextcloud.local [12:33] Hi all [12:33] Am I in the right place for this kind of question? [12:34] Hinnerk: we also have #ubuntu-server but now its sunday, you might get not much response there [12:35] Thx, I'll try there too. [12:35] good luck, hope someone can assist you [12:54] Hinnerk: that would be something pretty specific to Nextcloud [12:54] Got a solution in ubunutu-servers, thx. Involves dns and apache config and is really simple. [12:55] Hinnerk: that being said you can probably configure apache to add the prefix to the path [13:10] hello, I found out that - sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl 0000:00:1f.3: warn: FW ABI is more recent than kernel [13:10] does this mean I have to just use older kernal version in order to have drivers for the sound card? [13:11] and is there a quick way to find out which kernal will have drivers for the sound card [13:18] Does anyone have any theory at all about what else could cause Dummy Output and no sound on different distros and clean installs, other than faulty hardware? [13:19] Zoa3333, could be Pulseaudio or Alsa, as well as it is in my case - no drivers with the kernal I am using. [13:20] Zoa3333, try the recommended steps on ask.ubuntu [13:20] brk, on what hardware? [13:20] brk, thanks. tried all the solutions i've come across. it worked before. [13:20] will doublecheck the steps on ask.ubuntu [13:21] Zoa3333, some intel audio drivers are muted by default in alsamixer after OS installation [13:23] oerheks, **** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices **** [13:23] card 0: sofhdadsp [sof-hda-dsp], device 1: HDMI1 (*) [] [13:23] Subdevices: 1/1 [13:25] That does not say anything about your hardware [13:25] after I run journalctl -b just found that sof-audio-pci-intel-tgl 0000:00:1f.3: warn: FW ABI is more recent than kernel [13:25] brk: still fighting with your sound issue? [13:26] Maik, yeah, I think I need to find older kernal that supports my sound card. [13:26] too new hardware, for that soft driver, or better; too low kernel [13:26] Blueskaj, thanks. unfortunately no settings at all in alsamixer when i have dummy output as only device, but checking in other ways nothing seems to have been muted [13:26] oerheks, which hardware you asking for. I am on a huawei d15 [13:26] brk, and what ubuntu version/kernel? [13:27] brk: i thought the last time you switched to the -25 kernel it was solved.... or are you still installing and using kernels from outside the official ubunut repos....? [13:27] oerheks, Linux core 5.15.0-33-generic #34-Ubuntu SMP Wed May 18 13:34:26 UTC 2022 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux [13:28] oh, we had a kernel update lately, i am on 5.15.0-35-generic #36 [13:29] brk: iirc we also told you to file a bug report against the kernel [13:29] oerheks, how lately [13:29] Maik, there appears to be a bug reported since ubuntu 18.04 and its kernal version [13:30] brk: then again, file a bug [13:30] :/ [13:30] just run apt dist-upgrade? [13:30] it's pointless to go through the whole discussion all over again imho [13:31] brk: if you want things to get fixed you have to report the bug, it's happening at your end after all, not ours. [13:31] Maik, yeah, but I just found out that error message from the journalctl .... and got me thinking trying different kernal versions. And no - I am no longer using kernals outside the official repos :) [13:32] go on launchpad and file a bug [13:32] ok I will file a bug, you are right [13:32] :) [13:32] :) [13:33] oerheks, I tried distro update last time, didn't pull any new drivers or modules [13:33] lots of issues linux wide with that huawei thingy.. [13:34] oerheks, to be honest is just this one so far. but I kind of regret having it. should have go for dell instead. but the configuration on that d15 is crazy for the price [13:35] keep checking for a bios update, i have no clue how to fix this. ( and read a lot of pages in this hour) [13:37] no problem, I will fail the bug and will be waiting [13:37] how is everyone this morning? [13:39] xrandr: fine however it's afternoon here but casual talk is more something for #ubuntu-offtopic :) [13:46] Zoa3333: some distros started playing with pipewire migration and that if done carelessly can kill audio server function; if indoubt examine 'fuser -v /dev/snd/*' to see which apps are using that [13:47] Zoa3333: if is all on your own box, check if you somehow disabled audio in system bios [13:49] ubuntu next 22.10 will have pipewire [13:49] i-garrison: thank you. i only see pulseaudio there so seems alright, from what i can tell. got the same result on mint as well [13:49] i actually went and disabled the only audio setting i found in the bios to then enable it again since i had heard that helped some. but made no difference in my case [13:50] Zoa3333: if you pastebin 'pa-info' output I will look into what you have [13:51] i-garrison, isnt output from journalctl on boot better option for findfin the error? [13:52] i-garrison: hope this is ok https://pastebin.com/Xyt3e1v7 new with this stuff and linux as a whole [13:53] brk: no, not really; pa-info will reveal what alsa is seeing and we can get to dmesg later if needed [13:53] Zoa3333: that's fine, give me a min [13:53] thanks a lot [13:54] fair enough [13:57] Zoa3333: if you have speakers plugged in, try this 'speaker-test -D front:CARD=Generic -t wav -c 2' [13:58] tried it on mint but will redo to make sure [13:58] or i only have headphones. my bad. i suppose it wouldn't work then? [13:58] I will try too [14:00] i-garrison: part of it: Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 2 channels [14:00] WAV file(s) [14:00] Playback open error: -2,No such file or directory [14:01] good day. Is there a simple way to change icon for djvu files? (it is set to atril icon by default in xubuntu 22.04) [14:01] Zoa3333: it looks like really alsa driver issue, as alsa lists Starship/Matisse HD Audio Controller but does not show now mixer controls; we can look into your dmesg but usually you will have to report a bug https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DebuggingSoundProblems#How_to_report_audio_bugs so people can look into driver issues [14:02] Zoa3333: your HDMI should work though [14:03] i-garrison: would that also make sense even if it worked very recently? the only change i made, was installing elder scrolls online. within the first ten minutes sound stopped working [14:03] and didn't come back since [14:03] Zoa3333: cat /etc/os-release | nc termbin.com 9999 [14:05] Zoa3333: could be hardware, and maybe dmesg will reveal any issue but maybe let leftyfb have their answers now [14:05] leftyfb: https://termbin.com/40jg [14:08] Zoa3333: what laptop model is this? [14:09] Zoa3333: also please share if you do dual-boot with windows and if so - if you disabled fast boot in windows [14:10] leftyfb: it's not a laptop. i don't dualboot [14:10] Zoa3333: ok, what modem otherboard? [14:11] leftyfb: ASUS TUF B550 PRO [14:12] i bought it just a few months ago so it seemed unlikely the hardware would be faulty. but ofc it's possible. would be unfortunate [14:13] Zoa3333: https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-1141069-start-0.html [14:14] leftyfb: that's gentoo, not a fair comparison ) [14:14] leftyfb: i read this when looking for solutions but did not know how to do what mike155 mentioned in his post [14:14] i-garrison: it's not a comparison, it's a possible solution [14:15] live-version of mint and ubuntu both also showed dummy output, if that could be relevant at this point. [14:18] Zoa3333, live version of any windows will give you sound (if the hardware is not faulty. At least you can eliminate that possibility [14:19] in VM won't work though [14:19] brk: was considering that as a last resort yes. might have to do that after all. need to get my hand on win10 installation then [14:19] hands* [14:19] looks like a codec issue. alsa detects both audio chipsets, but just the codec for the hdmi [14:20] Zoa3333: tried https://askubuntu.com/a/1328544 ? [14:20] well, if sound worked in the same ubuntu installation before today, it is not likely a codec issue unless there was a kernel upgrade since last time it worked [14:20] Zoa3333: lets check: lsmod |grep snd-hda-intel | nc termbin.com 9999 [14:20] tomreyn: i do remember seeing something complaining about codecs, but i can't remember the command... [14:20] Zoa3333: let's see dmesg maybe [14:20] wait, this worked at one point on the same ubuntu installation? [14:21] Zoa3333: please pastebin your dmesg, e.g. wgetpaste -c 'dmesg' [14:22] leftyb; i had mint before. everything worked well, installed elder scrolls online, started it and within ten minutes all sounds stopped working since [14:22] think i tried that solution yes [14:22] Zoa3333: lsmod |grep snd-hda-intel | nc termbin.com 9999 [14:22] yes will do sorry. one min [14:23] if this was working under mint and then stopped working and is now not working on a fresh install of mint or ubuntu or any other distro, then this is possibly a hardware issue [14:24] leftyfb: i'm not getting any output from lsmod | grep snd-hda-intel | nc termbin.com 9999 [14:25] me too, not getting any output of lsmod [14:25] brk: are you running the same hardware? [14:25] Zoa3333: sudo insmod snd-hda-intel [14:25] it seems so [14:26] Zoa3333: sudo modprobe snd-hda-intel [14:26] brk: you're running a Asus TUF B550-Pro motherboard with Realtek S1200A codec? [14:27] no, but im having the same snd-hda-intel card .. ok ok, I got your point. sorry :) [14:27] i-garrison: got output which makes me think i did something wrong: https://pastebin.com/cjU0RYFM [14:28] Zoa3333: none of that is relevant [14:29] it's what came up from dmesg [14:29] but it didn't seem relevant, no.. [14:29] check for a bios update for that Asus TUF B550-Pro [14:30] sudo dmidecode -s bios-version [14:30] leftyfb: tried modprobe and seems to give the same result as it did on mint. no output but verified by another command that it worked last time [14:30] Zoa3333: lsmod |grep snd-hda-intel [14:30] does it show there? [14:30] now [14:30] Zoa3333: you will need to collect dmesg right after reboot without starting apps, it is getting overflowed by apps messages [14:31] i-garrison: the proper way is journalctl -k [14:31] oerheks: it says 2006 only. maybe i should check for an update in case a windows boot doesn't solve it, if i end up having to do that [14:32] leftyfb: lsmod gave no output [14:32] leftyfb: thanks! I'm too stubborn to read the man :) [14:32] Zoa3333: please wgetpaste -c 'journalctl -k' [14:33] Zoa3333: bios updates here: https://www.asus.com/de/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/All-series/TUF-GAMING-B550-PRO/HelpDesk_BIOS/ [14:33] wgetpaste does not exist [14:33] i-garrison: seems like it is also getting overflower. i will restart the pc real quick and do the command as you suggested [14:34] tomreyn, +1 [14:34] english rather: https://www.asus.com/uk/Motherboards-Components/Motherboards/All-series/TUF-GAMING-B550-PRO/HelpDesk_BIOS/ [14:34] i-garrison: wgetpaste isn't in Ubuntu [14:34] tomreyn: thank you! saving that [14:34] brb [14:39] here is journalctl -k https://pastebin.com/6sa8H7NA [14:39] here is dmesg https://pastebin.com/vWraV36q [14:39] still very long. not sure if it's supposed to be [14:40] Zoa3333, its normal [14:40] i see [14:40] update your bios, further investigation is kinda .. useless [14:41] oerheks: that's fair. i was hesitant updating but i will have to try that [15:02] I can't remove windows boot manager and windows network. I am removing the windows enrty with efibootmngr, but after reboot it loads again [15:03] I also added GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true in the grub file [15:04] osprober is not run, while installing grub, for some time now? [15:05] https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2021-December/041769.html [15:09] it is not disabled [15:18] would removing /boot/efi/EFI/Microsoft and then adding GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true to the grub file, and then updating grub be okay? [15:19] or just purge os-prober [15:20] + update-grub [15:21] brk: Is Windows gone? [15:22] tomreyn, should I remove also /var/lib/os-prober, after purging it? because it didnt remove this folder, since its not epty [15:22] before update-grub [15:23] its just lables inside, ill remove them anyway [15:27] it didn't remove the windows boot manager and still got EFI windows network [15:29] if you have multiple disks, it might be on an other one? [15:37] Jeremy31, it wasn't now its gone and I don't have windows boot manager anymore. [15:40] is updating the BIOS likely to help the sound issue? it seems like a last resort kind of thing. worried i'll ruin things after reading about it. [15:40] thank you [15:41] but I can still see EFI Network, which is Windows Networod did I get this one? and how to remove it [15:42] after removing it from efibootmgr it comes back on boot [15:42] brk, BIOS tries to boot from the network; i think you can disable it (in some ways) [15:43] if you have multiple disks, it might be on an other one? [15:43] ok, I will see what options I have in the firmware [15:43] brk: sudo efibootmgr -v [15:43] I have only one disk [15:44] ...lists what is configured in the efi 'bios' [15:44] i've never seen grub listing a "windows network" boot option [15:44] tomreyn, interesting ... with -v doesnt show EFI Network, but without the -v shows EFI Network [15:45] ah no, actually is gone. [15:45] those are boot loaders known to your efi 'bios', not those known to grub [15:45] I just have it in GUI showing in other locations. [15:45] ok [15:46] you can most likely disable booting from network in your bios settings [15:46] ok, will go and see what options I have there [15:46] Zoa3333, about 'dummy output' there was an old bug, but fixed now ... nevertheless you can try it : echo "options snd-hda-intel dmic_detect=0" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf ; echo "blacklist snd_soc_skl" | sudo tee -a /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf and reboot [15:48] Zoa3333, between your 2006 and 2022 bios, there are a lot of changes, too much to print. so yes, it might fix it, you should upgrade the bios, if it bricks, blame the vendor? [15:48] not us [15:49] 2006 (2021/04/08) -> 2803 (2022/05/31), spans 5 releases. [15:49] speaking of which I've got my own bios to flash [15:51] oerheks: there would be no reason to blame you either way. but yes, it seems reasonable to do [15:51] thanks [15:54] Can i make my operating system run on swap memoryvonly [15:55] *Memory only [15:55] webchat97: not really, why? [15:55] Cause I don't have physical memory [15:56] ioria: tried that on mint with no luck, same this time. thank you anyway [15:56] you have to have some, the only time system runs without physical memory is very first inctuctions processor executes after power up [15:57] in bios I have only PXE enabled, which I find is a client service for a system to boot linux on its own and run other operating systems using PXE-enabled interfaces on its network - That shouldn't do anything with the Windows network I am having, right? [15:57] webchat97: what's this hardware? [15:57] webchat97, sure your machine has. [15:57] if not, you cannot boot. [15:58] I 'M using a virtualbox [15:58] And I want my system to only use swap [15:58] brk: PXE boot is a different term for "network boot", it is not specific to operating systems. [15:58] Zoa3333, is it detected in lscpi ? [15:58] webchat97, no. [15:58] What the swap [15:59] Or physical memory [15:59] brk: i guess there is no harm in keeping the network boot entry on grub also? [15:59] tomreyn, ok, so its seems like I have installed ubuntu over a PXE netwrok boot [16:00] webchat97: you are likely describing what you have and what you need using wrong terms; physical memory is where system runs and swap is where it can store some of used memory if it has to (but that is usually very slow and it needs to get it back into physical memory before using again) [16:00] brk: why so? and you'd probably know if you did. unless this is an installation setup by your hosting provider on a dedicated or virtual server? [16:00] brk, I am not sure whether keeping it is a harm or not. If it creates any vulnerabilities on boot, I'd rather not have it [16:01] Is there anything I can do to majevmy system use swap [16:01] webchat97: this https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq [16:01] brk: not really a vulnerability, no. unless you choose to boot fro network, you won't. [16:02] webchat97, no, virtualbox does not give such option. [16:02] Can i add physical RAM to my phone [16:03] ioria: a lot of them says dummy host bridge, and i'm not sure which one is which at this point. there are many [16:04] will try to update though, see what happens. thanks all for the help. very thankful [16:04] tomreyn, ok [16:04] Is there a way to add physical RAM to my phone [16:04] Zoa3333, sudo lshw -C Multimedia [16:04] webchat97, this is ubuntu support, i have no idea if your phone is supported https://downloadmoreram.com/ [16:05] Ok thanks [16:06] tomreyn, but I don't need PXE environment unless I need to boot from LAN, which I even have no idea how and why I would need it [16:07] would purgeing pxelinux remove it from the bios? [16:07] brk: PXE is built into the ROM [16:08] brk: so, no, you cannot easily or usefully remove it [16:08] oh ok [16:09] brk: but you can disable the option you noted in the uefi 'bios' configuration utility, that will most likely remove it off the grub menu (after update-grub), too [16:09] brk: it's handy if you hae a boot server, and you can disable it in the BIOS probably, but it doesn't do any harm to leave it [16:09] brk: if you select it and you have no boot server, it'll try to use it and then fail and do something more sensible [16:10] ok, it make sense! [16:10] thnak you .. you all here should got patreon pages. thanks a lot! [16:11] tomreyn, I never updated grub, after enabling or disabling the PXE, perhaps thats why it always shows under "other locations" [16:19] I'd be really surprised if grub detected and configured pxe as a boot option. PXEboot happens at a pre-disk level of boot, before the BIOS even looks at the hardware. [16:20] Can i run Ubuntu server on 4 MB [16:20] no [16:20] Seeing a PXE boot secreen means your system hasn't found any local bootable media. [16:20] jhutchins, windows 11 was installed on the laptotp. then after preinstall with ubuntu i had windows on VMs, perhaps thats why its enabled [16:20] webchat29: Yes, less if necessary. [16:21] Hi ! I have downloaded the latest gcc that is available from ubuntu's toolchain PPA (gcc-11) and I installed it and then I used update-alternatives to set up what /usr/bin/gcc points to but it seems to breaks installation of packages that require gcc-9 and then I have to roll back to a previous Timeshift backup [16:21] I can boot into my system if I have 4MB ram [16:21] !ppapurge [16:21] To disable a PPA from your sources and revert your packages back to default Ubuntu packages, install ppa-purge and use the command: « sudo ppa-purge ppa:/ » – For more information, see http://www.webupd8.org/2009/12/remove-ppa-repositories-via-command.html [16:22] but toolchains.. use a backup or reinstall [16:22] THe command I entered : https://dpaste.com/CMF9Z9NL7 [16:23] cassepipe: it'll be best to just not update-alternatives but selectively use gcc-11 when needed using environment variables. [16:23] Boot2003* EFI Network RC [16:23] which is the Windows Network [16:23] tomreyn: Oh I did not know it was the way to go [16:23] brk: that's a boot option on your efi boot manager, the one provided by your uefi bios. not grub. [16:23] tomreyn: Using CC and CXX right ? [16:23] cassepipe, jammy 22.04 already gives 11 https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=gcc [16:24] cassepipe: yes, commonly [16:24] tomreyn, oh yes right, you mentioned early. tnx [16:24] oerheks: Can't move to latest Ubuntu yet alas [16:25] I do have a snapshot for a working system but I don't have one for when I had not yet entered the update-alternatives command [16:25] Is there a simple way to put them back to default ? [16:25] brk: yes, we keep repeating ourselves ;-) [16:25] I only define those in the link once so that should be easy to roll back [16:25] Can i boot into Ubuntu server if I have 4MB RAM [16:26] as in the link I posted * [16:27] Installing gcc-9 back again is not the way [16:27] I am so dumb, I did not need to remove gcc-9, that's the point of the update-alternatives command ... [16:30] @the_blonde Can i boot into Ubuntu server if I have 4MB Of RAN [16:31] *RAM [16:32] Is anyone there [16:34] webchat29, you can't. You need at least 512MB of RAM [16:34] Is that the minimum [16:35] You can't go below that [16:35] webchat29, seems so [16:36] Can i test it out [16:36] On a VM [16:36] webchat29, go ahead, nobody is stopping you I guess [16:37] Should I first start off at 512 [16:37]
