> Gnome OS these days uses A/B updates with dual read-only /usr partitions and verified boot in the mold of https://0pointer.net/blog/fitting-everything-together.html. Hang on. I have to say [[citation needed]] on this. I write about systemd regularly, and read Lennart's blog and Mastodon feed. As evidence, I did an in-depth on systemd 258 just a month or so ago: https://www.theregister.com/2025/07/25/systemd_258_first_rc_... I do not personally use GNOME or GNOME Boxes and I've never managed to get GNOME OS to so much as boot successfully in a hypervisor or on bare metal, and I've tried many times. But I don't think it adopts all these fancy features yet. ParticleOS does: https://github.com/systemd/particleos But that's a separate distro. It's not GNOME OS. It's the testbed for the "fitting everything together" concepts. Adrian Vovk's CarbonOS did much of this: ... but it's dormant now. He wants to turn GNOME OS into something like that, as he has said: https://blogs.gnome.org/adrianvovk/2024/10/25/a-desktop-for-... And I have written about: https://www.theregister.com/2024/11/29/kde_and_gnome_distros... I am not aware it has happened yet, though. | |||||||||||||||||
