<soultcer> Nemo_bis, xz also lets you set most compression parameters |

|
Nemo_bis |
do you also know how to do it efficiently from tar directly? piping doesn't seem very efficient |
13:44
🔗
|
soultcer |
Why doesn't Piping seem efficient? It's the unix way to do things. Afaik you can only switch xz compression on or off from tar, but not change any parameters. |

SketchCow: I hope you're aware of the potentially onerous license terms that come with the Kryoflux firmware and software, section 3.d of the license. True, the open-source library doesn't fall under these terms, but the license, as written, applies to all dumped images |

Nemo_bis |
soultcer, is piping 240 GB of stuff a good idea? (I don't know) |
16:21
🔗
|
soultcer |
Nemo_bis: Piping any amount of data is fine. That's one of the fundamentals of unix. Instead of having one tool do everything, let multiple small tools each do their part |
16:21
🔗
|
soultcer |
tar does not care if it writes to a file or stdout, they are both file descriptors |
16:21
🔗
|
Nemo_bis |
ok |
16:21
🔗
|
soultcer |
And xz does not care if it reads from a file or stdin. The only thing it can't do is display a progress bar, as it doesn't know the size of stdin, but everything else works fine |
16:22

Nemo_bis |

Yes, though even pv needs to know about the size of the data, otherwise it only shows throughput only. |

You can make your own estimate and give that to pv, right? |

Coderjoe: I don't know who wrote that license. I am hoping here they change it to not restrict what can be done with formats. the annoying thing is that, well, it applies because you can only dump floppies with DTC, and even if you could use something else, you'd still need that firmware blob |
