minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish18•edit-216 days agoNo. That’s not how it works. It installs a new image alongside the current one and once you boot again it simply boots into the new image. Never ever wait for an update again.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink8•16 days agoOh right, atomic distros work differently, didn’t think about that! That is convenient!
minus-squareRustmilianlinkfedilinkEnglish9•16 days agoVery convenient because if something happens where the update breaks something, you can just boot the previous image.
minus-squareTipponlinkfedilinkEnglish2•16 days agoDoes it give you a choice at startup, similar to the Grub menu, or do you have to do something to bring the option up?
minus-squareTipponlinkfedilinkEnglish2•16 days agoThat looks really handy, thanks :) I’ve just downloaded Fedora Kinoite to try with my Ventoy drive (I refer the KDE layout :) )
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish4•16 days agoFor even less pain try a ublue variant (Aurora or Bazzite probably for KDE depending if you game). No faffing around with codecs and RPMFusion etc…
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink2•15 days agoNope thats exactly how it works, gives you an entry in grub for the prior image.
