<youpi>gnu_srs, gnu_srs1: Mmm, ext2fs seems to have crushed mahler's root filesystem a bit. It is apparently similary to an issue we got on ironforge. fscking it could be enough to make it bootable again like on ironforge, could you do run it? (with the qemu vm off)
<spk121>Forgive what is probably a crazy idea, but, can I run a Hurd in userspace in a Docker container on Linux. It is so that I can add a Hurd test to my Github-based CI/CD, which is Ubuntu Linux. Github CI/CD doesn't allow VMs so I can't spin up a Hurd VM
<youpi>docker containers are not enough to simulate another OS
<spk121>Yeah, figured as much
<spk121>thx
<gnu_srs1>youpi: You mean checking the root fs from Linux?
<youpi>gnu_srs1: I mean the root fs of the mahler vm
<gnu_srs1>Checking the root fs of mahler, yes. But from Linux or restarting the VM image, where root fs checks can be made?
<youpi>gnu_srs, gnu_srs1: thanks for reviving mahler!
<youpi>I have to restore quite a few files from /home/lost+found, but that should be easy enough
<youpi>at least it didn't lose its keys, so at worse I just have to push the configuration again
<gnu_srs1>youpi: YW
