Tespecially nowadays that you can properly add layers to a base image, i really dont see a true downside.
DManaged to get to grub and boot into the rollback snapshot. Didn't seem to load at first but then worked. Pinned it, but haven't rebooted yet
RIf you need to change something on a base package, for example.
ROr god forbid the kernel itself.
ROstree makes it far more doable.
Tyou replace it. thats not hard with rpm-ostree
RTo be really honest.
RYou can't replace all packages.
RAs far as I have seen.
Tyou could technically just make your own image at this point.
RAnd that's the point.
RIt's more work than a makepkg and an install.
Tthats not too hard either with the startingpoint repo here
RDoable? Sure.
Tif you try to replace everything in arch, it also takes more than a simple makepkg
RI'll stick with arch for now.
Tif i want to build something very specific for a pc build here, i would just run nixOS at that point
ROh, god, no.
RI wanted to take a look.
RBut that's too much even for me XD
Tthats relatively simple if you understand the basics of a linux system.
RIt's extremely interesting as a concept.
RNot for the amount of new stuff to learn required.
Tthe "amount of new stuff" is just the syntax of the nix language
RBesides, my main sticking point was the potential amount of work to make my device behave as Arch now.
RToo much crap to be relearned :P
RI like the concept of a functional language.
RI had to so something in that in uni.
RI would never use an OS entirely based on that concept.
RMy brain just doesn't work like that I suppose.
Tthe point is, you do it once, and you dont have to redo it everytime.
RI know.
RProblem is.
Timagine you have to reinstall arch once then
RGetting to do it once XD
RAlready done for zfs.
RRequired far less than learning nix /s
Tits at max a day, or just 2-3 hours for a simple setup if you also rely on distrobox and flatpaks for things you dont want on your base image
R(Which I'm repenting now, but that's another issue)
Ta good working nix config for mostly gaming and container related tasks only takes ~150 lines of nix
Tthere are tons of configs to copy from on github, too.
Thome-manager and flakes arent necessary and are the true head crashers for a newcomer.
RLet's just say that functional is not really my cup of tea.
RIt adds too much complications to something that really doesn't need to.
RAnd besides, I can always use a script for doing the same on Arch.
Tseems to work as far as i can see
Tjust have to find out why audio isnt working yet
MTriple A games runs pretty sluggish, is anyone experience this on the legionGo?
D#No audio on Steam Deck after bazzite-deck:latest update You are not the only one experincing this issue. Thank god for rollbaxcks
