Ich habe tatsächlich wie auf meinem Desktop auch #Fedora #Silverblue installiert. Auf meinem Hauptrechner läuft das jetzt seit gut einem Jahr und ich bin bisher ziemlich zufrieden damit. Mal sehen, wie es sich auf dem Chromebook schlägt. Das hat zwar nur 4 GB RAM, aber für meinen Einsatzzweck sollte das reichen.

Auf #bootc habe ich übrigens auch schon umgestellt, obwohl das wohl offiziell erst ab Fedora 45 der Standard werden soll.

🎙️ Next up at #EmbeddedRecipes2026!

Alexander Larsson takes the stage with a forward-looking talk: "Booting validated containers in your car".

#EmbeddedRecipes2026 #EmbeddedLinux #Automotive #Containers #Bootc #SecureBoot #OpenSource

The first Fedora Hummingbird community meeting is this Thursday, May 28 at 8am ET.

Fedora Hummingbird Linux is an image-based operating system built with bootc — manage your OS like a container image, with hermetic builds and continuous CVE scanning.

Monthly meeting, open to everyone. Use cases, roadmap, technical blockers.

Had a productive long weekend with the #HomeLab.

It started running all my services on Debian VMs via Docker. By this evening all but two are running on custom Fedora bootc VMs via Podman.

No longer need to worry about patching the VMs OS; my bootc image is automatically rebuilt, with the latest security updates, every morning. Machine automatically pulls update and reboots.

Now I essentially just need to focus on keeping all Podman Compose stacks up to date. Some ideas here…

RHEL 10.2 turns Linux into an AI-powered enterprise weapon

https://fed.brid.gy/r/https://nerds.xyz/2026/05/red-hat-enterprise-linux-10-2-ai-tools/

In general the first day on Bluefin was pretty nice. The approach is way different, and tweaking requires jumping through hoops. Interestingly enough hardly anyone of endusers like to tweak. But the rest 'just works'. In that sense Aeon is possibly better suited, what I adjust is very basic. Fresh and kitty were only available (via homebrew) for macOS. And removing the logout option from the top right hand menu is silly. Although ctrl-alt-del gets you there. A bootc Gnome, with a CachyOS kernel. Is that too much to ask?

@zak So. I’m at the Red Hat Summit this week and there is discussion about something you might be interested in.

bootc (the main tool for RHEL Image Mode) allows you to basically create your own immutable OS image. It’s sort of like… rolling your own distro but using tools similar to creating docker container images rather than compiling from scratch.

The intent is of course virtualization - but you can deploy them on bare metal.

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/bootc/bare-metal/

It may be a heavier lift than you want to mess with - but it’s pretty interesting nonetheless.

Fascinating idea, though I can’t help but think it would just become some sort of attack vector of its own.

Also given the push towards immutable distros (which is a good and cool idea) I’d be very curious how this could actually be implemented.

Instead of waiting for patch cycles, admins could simply shut down vulnerable functions before attackers get there

🐧 Bootable Containers – Bare metal w świecie kontenerów

Adam Piaseczny opowie o #bootc i #OSTree – podejściu, które pozwala uruchamiać system #Linux z obrazów #OCI, aktualizować go przez CI i korzystać z bezpiecznych rollbacków. To technologia stojąca m.in. za projektami takimi jak Fedora Atomic czy Bazzite.
