Are they gonna sell laptops running FreeBSD with a virtualized Windows guest as "more secure" to the US government?
Re:No more boot loader: Please use the kernel instead
on Monday July 08, 2024 @04:00PM (#40908984)
>To be clear, systemd-boot doesn't replace GRUB, in that systemd-boot can only boot other EFI binaries, so it still requires the kernel to be compiled as a UKI. A GRUB setup with a regular vmlinuz + separate initramfs in root partition (or boot partition that's not the ESP) can't be replaced with systemd-boot directly. You first need to switch to a UKI-in-ESP setup.
That's wrong, my laptop right now uses systemd-boot with a vmlinuz and an initramfs, no UKI. See a configuration example here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Systemd-boot#Adding_loaders
Re:No more boot loader: Please use the kernel instead
on Monday July 08, 2024 @03:57PM (#40908954)
Install arch with a couple of different bootloaders and disk layouts, and you'll learn it all. The simplest option is potentially systemd-boot + an unencrypted rootfs.

I agree, I'm not getting new computers more than once a year, at most. Setup time doesn't seem like something I should optimize for.
Re:Going declarative on macOS with Nix and Nix-Darwin

Yeah, I've tried both nix and brew, and `brew install` is just much more convenient than editing a config file and then running `home-manager switch --flake .`
