Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:53 AM

Don't do that

Auwufy•3/18/24, 1:53 AM

At least that's what I wanted

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:53 AM

Nothing whatsoever

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:53 AM

Not even a minor version bump

TechzOP•3/18/24, 1:54 AM

Hrmm :sus_think:

KKyle Gospo Yeah, that's not supported

Auwufy•3/18/24, 1:54 AM

Why not?

AAuwufy Why not?

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:55 AM

Immutable Fedora installations are quite different from normal Fedora installations, even upstream does not support manual installation. You can do it, there's very long guides on how to do it properly, it's not worth it

AAuwufy Yeah, because I had a separate drive for /home

Immutable? Why isn't it a normal Fedora distro like nobara/ultramarine (except those break right after updating a fresh install)?

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:57 AM

Because I like immutable

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:58 AM

Quite literally everything in this Discord is immutable

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:58 AM

Or as Fedora calls it, atomic

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:58 AM

Since you actually can change the root partition via package layering

Auwufy•3/18/24, 1:59 AM

I mean how am I to recover "/home" when the system breaks again, or preserve it when installing a another OS, if home's mapped to the same broken system?

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:59 AM

Home is a folder in var

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 1:59 AM

You may back up and restore that partition how you like

Auwufy•3/18/24, 2:01 AM

Why is home in /var? This is making arch or any rolling-release distro seem more a stable choice

dreamyuki•3/18/24, 2:01 AM

Because ostree

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:01 AM

Because that's the writable partition

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:01 AM

Everything else is part of an image and read only except by a package layer

dreamyuki•3/18/24, 2:02 AM

Fedora Atomic Desktop is more stable than Fedora Workstation

dreamyuki•3/18/24, 2:02 AM

You can rollback to previous deployment

Ddreamyuki You can rollback to previous deployment

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:02 AM

In our case you can also arbitrarily pick one in a 90 day period

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:03 AM

Entire os, packages included, will be brought to exactly that date

dreamyuki•3/18/24, 2:03 AM

You can upgrade to a major version without any issue like workstation variant

Auwufy•3/18/24, 2:04 AM

But I can't use /home externally...My steam library alone will eat 90% of the space of the ssd I intended solely for "/"

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:05 AM

Steam will let you put a library on any drive you like

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:05 AM

You don't need home somewhere special for that

ChaiQi•3/18/24, 2:05 AM

^ put the steam library somewhere else

dreamyuki•3/18/24, 2:05 AM

Just mount your steam drive at /var/mnt/foo

ChaiQi•3/18/24, 2:05 AM

Mine is at /var/mnt/Data/Games/Steam/

ChaiQi•3/18/24, 2:05 AM

Data is my second SSD, Games is a btrfs subvolume, and Steam has its own folder

Auwufy•3/18/24, 2:08 AM

There's also downloads, distrobox containers, media cache, browser cache, git/dev folders

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:08 AM

How small is this drive? I've been able to get away with using a 256 GB steam deck for a very long time now

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:08 AM

A couple different box containers aren't going to take up that much space

Auwufy•3/18/24, 2:09 AM

The "/" was going to be on a 1tb (800-something gb) ssd drive and "/home" on the 8tb ssd

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:10 AM

1 TB is enormous, I would just make the other one your game and storage drive

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:10 AM

There is zero need for home to be on the other drive

TechzOP•3/18/24, 2:10 AM

For the peeps that switch between handheld and docked how do you manage your game profiles that you want for when it's docked vs handheld on a per game situation

Aru•3/18/24, 2:10 AM

there's not really a solution for handheld/docked profiles

Aru•3/18/24, 2:11 AM

assuming you're on a Steam Deck

Kyle Gospo•3/18/24, 2:11 AM

Yeah, unfortunately something like that would need to come from valve

Aru•3/18/24, 2:11 AM

or at least, there's no solutions that I know of

Aru•3/18/24, 2:11 AM

on non-deck hardware you can use 3rd party software to get TDP profiles when docked with AC power

Aru•3/18/24, 2:11 AM

but you can't do anything about graphics settings

Aru•3/18/24, 2:12 AM

i don't think any games offer separate graphics profiles when docked

KKyle Gospo There is zero need for home to be on the other drive

Auwufy•3/18/24, 2:12 AM

The "/home" I'd be transferring over is already over 3TB

Aru•3/18/24, 2:12 AM

or at least, none that I know of

TechzOP•3/18/24, 2:12 AM

Nah on a ally, all good can change the profile manually just wasn't sure if there was like a option to save preset for docked and handheld individually
