To anyone following, I found part of the problem was a few stale interfaces cockpit lied about were still around. Cockpit still sucks. if you must use it, only tweak with it. do initial config from the CLI.

Now I just need to figure out how to keep the bridges from deactivating when the VM doesnt load fast enough for them. NetworkManager seems really impatient.

Give up already and install jpegVista.

Dude, there’s debate the couch even consented to that.

Oh finally some good news. Vance doesn’t have a chance in hell.

I stopped putting it off and built a ddr4 based pc as soon as I could. Didn’t plant it out as much as I normally would and now it’s biting me in the ass somewhat but that’s always part of the fun.

I can paste in here whatever you want pulled off nmcli if that helps.

I create the VLANs off the parent interface. Then I create the bridges to each vlan and the untagged lan. Then I have the host set to get an IP from the untagged LAN and do not get IPs from the VLANs. Finally I set the VM to add its virtual interfaces to each of the VLANs and the untagged LAN.

For some reason, it’s not adding itself to the untagged lan. It adds itself to the VLANs but not the lan.

Okay I did that with WAN and that can work there but it’s not possible to do that with LAN because the containers need to be able to talk to those networks too.

I have a failover so it’s not a risk. And I cannot pass the intel card to the VM because the passthrough on this motherboard only works on GPU and one of the NVMe slots. The goals of this build was to put everything in one box and get the fuck off the cloud.

Heavy and annoying.

You know I might just do XFS in the NVME, LVM XFS for the hard drives, and just keep good backups. Fuck the snapshots entirely. I feel like I’m giving up :(.

I wonder, I want sunshine in a container doing Wayland zero copy, immich, homeassistant, jellyfin, pinchflat, frigate, and an opnsense VM. NUT, i2pd, and BitTorrent could possibly be put into containers too. If everything is a container or VM anyway, maybe I should go back to fedora but look at core instead of server.

Yes. Now you install it as a dkms module and userspace tools. The tech is fine. The maintainer is an ass is all.

Anyway I can’t get btrfs to give me what bcachefs does. It don’t do per subvolume compression settings. It won’t tier storage. It’s not elastic. I can come close to that with LVM, bcache, and btrfs but is just not very cleanly done. Bcachefs is in a wild place but it did all I wanted it to so I tried the other things and now I want to go back.
