We're apparently entering an era of subprime AI.

"entering"? That implies we weren't already there.

I mean yes.

[illumos-gate] 17966 NCA & NL7S retirements forgot about AF_NCA and residual sockfs debris -- Dan McDonald <danmcd⊙ei>

dd a iso to a usb device, do you if=$iso of=/dev/rdsk/c8t0d0?

looks like my usb drive isn't working? gist.github.com/Smithx10/11b45b953cd00e2068f0966b5c0b05fc

Smithx10: c8t0d0p0

@denk whats with that iostat output?

do usb not have a device like disks? /dev/rdsk/c2t8CE38EE2119F3101d0 exists for example

iostat should print actual media size

if it prints 0 it means some errors

*d0 is only there if your disk has GPT partition table (assuming the symlink will actually resolve). Which also means, using it to write down new image is risky and therefore it is better to use *p0 node.

tsoome: which man page / where can I read in more in detail about how this works?

Smithx10: disk device naming schemes are listed in sd(4d), cmdk(4d), nvme(4d), and blkdev(4d) man pages (and possibly elsewhere)

oh, and scsa2usb for USB
