Ashiette,

Should work. Youā€™d be better off ddā€™ing each partition separately.

Ashiette,

If you dd a 1TB hard drive, it will create a 1TB image. Youā€™d need to have a >1TB drive to store it. If you dd each partition separately, this wonā€™t be the case.

Plus it will be easier to discriminate between different FS and mount them accordingly.

Ashiette,

Just a friendly reminder that the Washington Post belongs to Jeff Bezos

Ashiette,

I have had a few issues with Hyprland / nVidia, ultimately making me abandon hyprland as much as I absolutely loved it.

I couldnā€™t work with TexStudio and Electron apps were at best buggy.

President Macron says France and its allies 'could have stopped' the 1994 Rwanda genocide (apnews.com)

French President Emmanuel Macron said Thursday that France and its allies could have stopped the 1994 Rwanda genocide but lacked the will to do so, a strong declaration ahead of the African countryā€™s 30th anniversary of the slaughter that left over 800,000 people dead....

Ashiette,

And they could have done the same in Palestineā€¦ They just donā€™t have the will. History is repeating itself.

Have you activated the browser integration in KeepassXC ?

Fractional scaling help? (kbin.run)

Im on a Dell G5 15 laptop with a 1660ti. I set my built in monitor to 125%, and that looks fine, but for some reason my second monitor seems to be zoomed in a bunch, even though that is still at 100% I kinda need my laptop screen zoomed in since its so small, any advice? Pop!_OS LTS, dont remember version, but says "most recent"

Ashiette,

If you remake a new partition for a new install you shouldnā€™t lose anything if the partitioning goes correctly.

Ashiette,

Iā€™m not the original replier. Iā€™m not sure these differences since Iā€™m using another distro. This is my best take : take it with a grain of salt.

Silverblue is container based : each program is independent for security and stability. They are containes as flatpaks.

Ublue and bazzite are docker based, meaning they are immutable, meaning they should work as expected and are very stable.

Fedora is the base distro. Itā€™s like Pop!_OS

Ashiette,

Imagine you have a 500Gb SSD.

If you allocate 100GB to Windows, 200GB to Pop and 200 GB to Fedora (or another distro) you will still be able to boot on pop and retain those documents while having an entirely different OS (fedora) from which you can boot with its own files and config which wonā€™t impact your Pop.

If youā€™re more tech savvy you can even create a share partition on which you can store files that are easily transferrable between these 3 OS.

That would be a terrible idea, if you use the same username.

Since each distro uses your home folder to store their configuration files, there would be a conflict and neither would function correctly.

A solution would be to have your pop OS to have a user1 and your Fedora to have a user2. i.e. John for Pop and Jack for Fedora.

But ultimately, what I would recommend would be the following :

When you install fedora, you donā€™t have to use a different partition for home. It only has to use a single partition for everything. (iirc, fedora uses a filesystem called btrfs which is very practical for these cases)

Letā€™s say your partition will look something like this

  • /dev/sda1 EFI
  • /dev/sda2 Win
  • /dev/sda3 Pop system
  • /dev/sda4 Pop home partition
  • /dev/sda5 Fedora (system+home)

And if you want a shared space between all the OS you would then have another partition

  • /dev/sda6 share partition (exFAT or NTFS or FAT32)
Ashiette,

For something that ā€œjust worksā€ and feels quite like home, without being KDE, Iā€™d recommend Zorin.

Itā€™s stable, beautiful to look at and works as expected. Iā€™d not recommend Arch-based distros to begin (but if you want to go the troubleshooting and fixing things way, that would be choice #1).

Unpopular : Iā€™d not recommend mint.

Ashiette,

Maybe it is me but Cinnamon, while being very user friendly, feels limited. I feel that when you want to start tweaking, the options are not there yet.
