Im starting to achieve platform distro OS translucency regarding more and more projects. Now I can smoothly work in my hugo projects from any distro I want in Linux. All I need to do is keep the copies I work on in sync.
Since I dont run zfs jet on a centralized HDD / SSD I simply use mc -a to do the job manually.
Normally it should be trivial, but the hugo projects want rm -Rf dir otherwise old files with similar size can be changed, thus screwing up continuity

Since my KDE MX install is moothing out in cfg features I need, which is a combo of XFce components and KDE, I can smoothly switch to the KDE distro and work further while I tune it.

I chose to keep XFce seperate from KDE distro wise due to size constraints I;ve put on my boot partition

My experience with #FlashDrives recently has been mixed. I have no problem in encrypting them with #LUKS, using #cryptsetup or with formatting a partition with #Btrfs, for instance, using #gparted and doing other tinkering with #Gnome #disks. But the problem has been with the actual drives themselves. The cheaper ones seem to have quite a few bad sectors, etc. and so they’re not really reliable for medium term storage.

Giving credit to the programmers of GPARTED(8)

gparted works its magic, by entering correct parameters to a suite of partition control & editing commands, which are sh envoked, so you can easily manipulate your partitions on all your SSDs HDDs from the comfort of your UI

When you want to batch manipulate partitions, you can study the log output and make sh scripts yourself, controlling partitions anywhere.
You also have the convenience of running gparted from sh so it still works its magic for you, without the UI!

I usually run cfdisk gdisk fdisk when I partition a fresh mechanical or SSD, later on I invoke gparted when I want to resize or move them

it also runs important commands at the end so that the kernel gets to know your new partition layout, which makes rebooting your machine to use them unneeded

I shrunk and resized a partition where I installed a program, which needed 75GB (*1024!) as installation space but only uses 56GB in the end. I left 12GB of breathing room on the partition after the shrink and of course grew the partition before with the same size, minus the alignment snip of 1MB

Despues de reiniciar, el muy querido #grub me volvia a mostrar las entradas de #UbuntuBudgie y ahora el flamante #RebornOSBudgie

Despues llego la tradicional personalizacion, (des)instalacion de Apps, etc Dentro de las novedades agradables de esta distro es que ya viene lista preparada para el uso de #AppImage, asi que por este lado pude colocar a punto mis apps preferidas

Ahora creo haber descubierto la razon del "problema" de instalacion... al mirar el disco a traves de #gParted y descubrir que parece ser que me equivoque en un detallazo: En vez de crear una particion de 8MiB "sin formatear" parece que deberia haber dejado los 8 MiB simplemente "sin asignar"

@phpmacher Andere verschrotten in so einer Situation den PC und kaufen neu (Behörden *räusper*).

Für alle anderen, die gerne rumprobieren, gäbe es da noch Netboot.xyz (netboot.xyz/). Einfach alle möglichen Linux Distros, nahezu blitzschnell, aus dem Netzwerk booten (PXE). Mit Anleitung sogar Windows. Benutze ich recht häufig auch für RAM Analysen oder Secure Erase Zeug. Da gibts eigentlich alles, was man sich so vorstellen kann: DBan, Arch Linux, CentOS, clonezilla, FreeBSD, GParted, Kali, Proxmox, Rescuezilla, ShredOS, ... uvm.

netboot.xyzYour favorite operating systems in one place! | netboot.xyznetboot.xyz enables you to PXE boot many Operating System installers and utilities from a simple to use menu powered by the iPXE project.

Ich muss es mal wieder in aller Deutlichkeit sagen:
Ich ❤️ #Linux

Im #Notebook meiner Frau war noch eine relativ kleine #SSD. Seit einem Jahr macht sie mega viele Fotos mit dem #Smartphone und bei der letzten Sicherung auf's Notebook waren nur noch 4 GB frei.

Ich habe das mit #LUKS vollverschlüsselte #Ubuntu kurzerhand mit Linux #Bordmitteln auf eine größere SSD umgezogen:

1. alte SSD mit dd auf neue SSD 1:1 geklont
2. neue SSD ins Notebook eingebaut und Ubuntu gestartet
3. im laufenden System unbenutzten Speicherplatz mit #gparted der verschlüsselten Root-Partition hinzugefügt.
4. im laufenden System das #LVM vergrößert
5. im laufenden System das Dateisystem vergrößert

Fertig.

Effektiver Arbeitsaufwand: 5 min

Man versuche das mal mit #BigTech #Microsoft #Windows. 🤣
