<youpi>solid_black: oh, great :D

<solid_black>would be nice to get a newer version though, I have 16.4 on my GNU/Linux box and 13.3 in Debian

<solid_black>especially considering they have changed the runner registration process between these versions

<solid_black>gitlab.gnome.org is GitLab 16.4 too

<damo22>eh? salsa.debian.org is down

<damo22>youpi: i have a hurd vm here that can run gitlab-py-runner, is there any way i can hook it up to something useful?

<damo22>it has 4GB memory, 1 core and 50GB of unused ssd storage

<youpi>yes, plugging it to salsa would be great

<youpi>(salsa is under maintenance indeed)

<damo22>i guess i need a gitlab runner token

<damo22>im just plumbing the needed parts to make it autostart the runner when i reboot it

<damo22>does crontab @reboot target work on hurd?

<damo22>ill try it

<youpi>but why not using an init script?

<youpi>that's the usual way of starting daemons

<damo22>i can start it in a screen, then i can log into it and check its stdout at any time

<damo22>or just nohup it

<damo22>"@reboot /path/to/script" works in a crontab on hurd

<solid_black>damo22: try using the Go runner, it works just fine

<solid_black>just apt install it from Debian

<solid_black>it ships with the init script

<solid_black>nohup and screen is really a sad way to manage processes

<damo22>hmm this AMD machine almost boots natively with hurd

<damo22>rumpdisk cannot detect the AHCI controller for some reason

<damo22>PCI_VENDOR_AMD, PCI_PRODUCT_AMD_HUDSON_SATA_AHCI

<damo22>it mentions it in the source
