CarlFK[m]froztbyte (IRC): hey!19:23
CarlFK[m]froztbyte (IRC): (hours later)  let me know when you get them powered up (they don't come with 12v PS or box... )19:24
CarlFK[m]and I'll point you at my wiz bang flashing procedure19:25
froztbyteHaha, cool19:26
froztbyteYeah I still have some assembly to do still19:27
froztbyteBut I need to get the pieces before they disappear off the market again ;)19:27
CarlFK[m]https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01B575EMA/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_ep_dp_4esXzbH5738DJ19:33
CarlFK[m]that's my pic for box - there is a bracket and room for mounting stuff19:33
CarlFK[m]and don't forget the magic cable for input(s)19:34
froztbyteYa I still need to buy some cables and all that jazz19:34
froztbyteAlso I still have one of your odroids here19:35
froztbyteThe things I was planning to look at it for probably somewhat got superceded by the debconf setup ansible19:35
froztbyte(which I'm for fucking damned sure not going to use because fuck ansible with a rake, but)19:35
froztbyteCarlFK[m]: what's easiest? Just buy you a new odroid, and I keep this one?19:36
froztbyteAnything else seems to involve painful shipping logistics19:36
CarlFK[m]just keep it - it's $50 ish,   your time is valuable, do $50 ish worth of anything19:37
froztbyteA'ight19:39
froztbyteI shall out equivalent numbers of beers on your tab19:39
froztbytePut*19:39
CarlFK[m]woot!19:39
CarlFK[m]feel like building a ... test thing that tests the opsis?19:41
CarlFK[m]we keep talking about it, and doing little things like it.. but don't have anything19:41
CarlFK[m]I have gobs of code that do stuff, like download latest firmware,  flash (kinda), use usb relay to power cycle the board, code to hit the serial thing and get the firmware version19:43
CarlFK[m]but.. none of that has all been done in the day, so no, there isn't any sort of "and check the reported version matches what we think is current"19:44
CarlFK[m]also, flash (kinda) = "try, see error, sudo run fix, try again"  which normally works19:44
froztbyteWell, what's "test"?19:46
froztbyteThat's really my first question I guess19:46
CarlFK[m]some sort of automated test19:46
froztbyte"test if it comes back"? "test throughput and function"?19:46
froztbyteThe latter needs a whole testbench with kit probably19:46
froztbyteWhich isn't impossible but is something that requires Bits19:47
froztbyteSome cost, some time, some setup. Effort now and then.19:47
froztbyteCarlFK[m]: ya, like19:47
froztbyteI get the idea and I even agree with the notion, it's just "what's the scope"19:47
CarlFK[m]a good first test = hit the serial thing and get the firmware version19:47
froztbyteThat's fairly doable19:48
froztbyteOne could put on one's Heathen Hat and write some expect or whatever19:48
CarlFK[m]that will catch most of the sorts of problems we have been having19:48
CarlFK[m]like "now the box doesn't boot"19:48
CarlFK[m]or "build bot failed to build for that platform. "19:49
CarlFK[m]or "sudo fix" didn't actually fix because we don't really have a good grip on that problem/solution19:50
CarlFK[m]right now I do all this stuff manually, when I think about it, and feel like it, and dont' get distracted by chasing birds.19:50
