Immutable Distros: What you should know - An introduction into image based systems (Part 1) in c/[email protected]

Great post! Very informative! I have tried to install Kinoite but it's tricky to do with partitions. I currently have all my data/files on a big partition and install the system in a different one, and I can't seem to install Kinoite without "formatting" the disk. Will do in the future for sure!

I guess this is the succinct version of the other replies. You're getting downvotes but I like it anyway :)

This is everything I was looking for, thank you so much!

what makes you think you won’t?

I'm not sure, I think the emphasis on news about distro update around the web. It makes me confused as to what's so important about that, but I now understand perfectly. I thought it worked a bit more like a rolling distro and I now understand what a rolling distro is :)

Help me understand Linux distros updates. (startrek.website)
 

Hi I'm relatively new to Linux. There's talk about updating, say from Fedora 37 to 38.

Is this something that needs to happen manually? If I solely update through the updater software, I'm not getting the whole "38"?

I understand that, of course, I won't see updates on the installer or I won't use a new supported partition type unless I install it again.

Apart from that, what's missing? Some software won't be updated? The kernel?

Thank you all!
