but I didn't manually partitioned by system and made /var/home a seperate directory. I just let anaconda do it for me.
Dwill the upstream issue even resolve?
EI forgot people that didn't manually paritition their drive don't have a separate home partition
EWhy wouldn't it?
EWith that said you may be able to retain the BTTFS subvolume but I am not sure
Dbecause there is some unfixable bug involved
EWell it's certainly not unfixable and I wouldn't consider absent builds a bug
MSo trying out VRR with the new update. Worked first try when connected directly to my TV. Then plugged the deck into my VRR compatible receiver which is plugged into my TV. Was unable to enable VRR on the deck now. Ok. Switched back to direct connect to the TV. Now I can’t turn on VRR anymore 
MI don’t know how to fix it yet, but figured I’d just share
MAnd I’ve tried rebooting, changing resolutions, verifying that the TV is setup right, and unplugging the power from the dock and plugging it back in. Still can’t get it back
Dtry booting into your previous deployment
MI mean it was working. All I did was switch what it was plugged into
ETo my understanding, the patchset needs to be updated for 45.1
Dthat means we need a successful bazzite build
RI’m used to Calmares, what do I do here to keep my stuff?
KShould only apply to desktop as well
KGamescope is it's own thing
RDoes hitting the "-" when partitioning actively delete the partition or just selects it to be deleted when installing?
RIt says there must be a new root but I just wanna make sure I don't start something, do it wrong, and not be able to pull out before I really hit the big blue button.
RDoes this look correct otherwise, guys?
Hthe link they gave you was for normal fedora.
i believe you need
/boot as ext4
/boot/efi as EFI (fat32 with some flags if EFI or ESP is not an option)
a subvolume named
a subvolume named
this would be the bare minimum
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora-silverblue/installation/
kinoite will have the same limitations

RWill this keep my existing home folder intact?
Hno idea as i am new to fedora on desktop, only used some centos servers once in a blue moon
but in most installers when you use partitions, not btrfs subvolumes the home folder is kept if you do not format the home partition
no idea how anaconda handles this with btrfs subvolumes

SQuick question. So It is not reccomended to have other partitioned os's on the same hard drive that Bazzite is installed on correct? But it's fine to have them on other hard drives in the same system.
INice, amazing!
IThanks.
Hpretty much and the bootloader for bazzite should be on the same drive as bazzite, meaning if you are a new user the easiest way to achieve this is to just make sure bazzite is the only available disk when installing and same goes for when installing windows (make sure windows only sees the disk that windows will be using)
bit harder to do that with a steamdeck but on pc you can just install the system in a VM using disk passthrough and then reboot to the disk afterwards (i do this all the time)
once the systems are installed on separate disks you can just regenerate grub using

DHello, how can I install virtual box?
Huse virt-manager instead as its better supported in bazzite. dont know how supported virtualbox is on ostree distros.
you can install it using the command
after reboot you run
you can install it using the command
ujust enable-virtualizationafter reboot you run
sudo systemctl enable --now libvirtd to permanently activate the service (this might have to be run again after any new major fedora release)Hit will take a lot of time to install as you have to install qemu and libvirt directly into your image (this will also slow down future updates)
DCan't I install it using distrobox? I just need network access and folder sharing
Hvirtual machines from my testing run like garbage in some situations in distrobox
DAh, ok
Hhence why we layer virt-manager
Sso the simple answer is yes? Basically have the bootloader and bazzite on the same disk. Windows can be on a separate disk, I just need to egenerate grub using ujust regenerate-grub in the terminal in Bazzite. is that right?
FYOu can, but it is complicated: https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/blob/main/docs/posts/run_libvirt_in_distrobox.md
Falso, could just use https://flathub.org/apps/org.gnome.Boxes if you don't need usb access, it performs well enough for basic usage
DI will use virt-manager
DBecause I need windows vm
DGnome boxes from what I remember only was for linux vms
FGnome Boxes runs libvirt as well
FI have used it to run Win11 and it was fine
DI will give it a try
FA bit too restricted for me though, so I do prefer virt-manager (though for me I just layer it on my image recipe)
Fbut yeah, absolutely give it a try first
Fit was good enough for me to use at work a while back
DJust curious, does portmaster work on bazzite?
Hwindows bootloader also must be on the same disk as windows as windows have a nasty tendency to overwrite grub whenever they update their bootloader
