Issues with installing mullvad vpn and root partition size
I guess the long and short of it i that if you follow the instructions they give you on Mullvads site for fedora it fails to go through becaue they use dnf and bazzite doesn't read that so you have to install it manually more or less. That said ive found a guide that lets you do it but now im running into the issue where the root partition is only big enough for the initial install and i cant put in a 186 B repo to get mullvads vpn running(yes i know i can use ovpn but id want to use the launcher).
I was in dolphin --sudo while trying to copy and work in root so that shouldn't be the issue. I guess is there an easy enough way to just make the root partition a big bigger to give me the room to work in it a bit or how else could i do that short of a reinstall and tweaking the partitions then. Ive used linux before im just abit rusty at it cause its been a while.
Thanks in advance.

Even if root was larger it's read only.
Install Mullvad:
rpm-ostree install mullvad-vpn
reboot
Link client to the service:
sudo systemctl enable --now mullvad-daemon
Install libappindicator:
sudo rpm-ostree install libappindicator-gtk3
reboothuh guess this operates differently than manjaro n what not where its all been open access given admin rights.
Yep, it's immutable
error:package not found
is
sudo rpm-ostree install libappindicator-gtk3 also needed on gnome ?
