lemmyreader,

You want to try something interesting but want to dual-boot. That last bit could be difficult or “impossible” but using a VM or running from USB stick are options.

  • www.haiku-os.org I’ve run it from USB stick on some older laptop.
  • chimera-linux.org FreeBSD user-land with a Linux kernel.
  • nomadbsd.org FreeBSD which can be run from USB stick with persistent storage. Has a version with ZFS support.
  • nixos.org Very interesting concept.
  • www.gobolinux.org GoboLinux is an alternative Linux distribution which redefines the entire filesystem hierarchy. Doesn’t seem up to date but quite interesting. If I remember well you can have different versions of software installed at the same time. Let’s say (making this up) Bash 1.1, 3.1 and 5.2
  • bedrocklinux.org Bedrock Linux is a meta Linux distribution which allows users to mix-and-match components from other, typically incompatible distributions.
lemmyreader,

Did you install LibreWolf system wide or user ?

lemmyreader, (edited )

Tested here with LibreWolf installed with Flatpak system wide. Up to date Arch Linux, installed xfce4 and xfce4-goodies packages, logged in to the xfce-session, started LibreWolf from the menu, downloaded something to ~/Downloads. No issues.

Maybe it is just your LibreWolf profile (in ~/.var/app/io.gitlab.librewolf-community/) that is giving troubles. You can create a new one with :

/var/lib/flatpak/exports/bin/io.gitlab.librewolf-community -P and see how it fares.

sk, to test

    lemmyreader,

    /e/OS is based on LineageOS with microG. They did make a choice for Magic Earth as maps app which is not open source. For “normies” /e/OS seems a fine choice to me to De-Google.

    lemmyreader,

    Have other comments made you dislike /e/OS ? microG, which /e/OS uses is not using Google but a replacement for the Google Play framework if you would for example need location feature for some of your apps.

    lemmyreader,

    Did you do a sha256sum or md5sum checksum after downloading the iso file and after copying it to the Ventoy pendrive ? (Linux uses caching for copying. Taking the pendrive out before your system has done a “safe remove” can cause problems)

    lemmyreader,

    👍 Interesting idea.

    Honest question: Why?

    You missed the StackExchange and AI story this week ?

    lemmyreader,

    lemmyreader,

    Indeed. GoboLinux is neat last time I tried it. Although it’s not clear to me how active its development is.
