Never heard about Depthboot but sadly, there is no support for Debian Linux. If Depthboot compatible with that, I will go down testing it in no time.

Try it on VM. if you seeking slim minimalist linux with KDE out of the box, then Q4OS is the endgame. Garuda do too much custom for me, even debian vanilla with KDE is still bloat…

I just trying Q4OS Aquarius KDE (I love KDE btw) with “Pure Profile” install yesterday, and I’ll say clearly that nothing can beats their minimalist approach on system as far as I distro hopping on many Linux. The satisfied feeling with start from really pure system is so pure joy…

The only trade off here is that read/write operations are going to be throttled

I agree with this, definitely noticeable with FD and maybe the better solution imo is buy SSD SATA 128gb, installed Ventoy on that, move all your ISO linux to Ventoy, and you can boot all Linux in one page without any flashing one by one again.

Very convinient, less effort, and more flexible according to your needs in instant. Start with FD 64gb is fine (as I started from that too), but in the end, I need to buy external SSD for not compromise the speed and storage (minus the size though than FD)…

• for Ventoy! more dynamic Linux experiences is one place and functions for one time effort…

Yesss… satisfied than what I expected :D

So I still need Beaglebone Black, connect it with x86 based laptop, and run the script on x86 laptop right? As the standard requirement for L-booting I read in official guide…

Gladly, I don’t have and don’t wanna buy RasPi because the price is insane in my country (Indonesian), but other peripherals like BB are still on normal price. Have you any recommended using other alternatives than Beaglebone Black? :)

I’m sorry to ask many noob questions to you, because I just found the one who make this possibly happen as I’m starting losing hope for tinkering this, and don’t wanna risk to brick that too cause my poor knowledge and preparing things. Still… bless you sir…

I never thought to get this detail answer from lemmy user. You are real dark magician! Thank you so much… I just surprised when check my inbox and got this + easy to understand for inexperience like me in Libreboot process. The only info I have right now for L-booting x200s is this. But your tips here are clearly make L-booting x200s looks so easy and make it possible as fast as I can.

do not compile libreboot with raspberry pi nor any sbc you’re using (use real x86 computer)

Can you give me an example for what real x86 computer you used or other best option? I’m still confused for the keyword in search engine. Still… thank you so much for this guidance from my soul. It looks like overreacted, but this little step stone is very important for me to start…

I want L-booted my x200s, but the procedure is complex than others. I need to find someone who’s expert at soldering first, to not make any mistakes at the mobo. Still in searching, so it’s all matter of time…

Do you have any tips or guide for me to L-booted this piece of art?

+1 with Thinkpad any S series. More portable and compact (thanks to the lightweight compensation than other series). Also thinkpoint is the main point of Thinkpad laptop that brings you joy to the fullest on this machine.

Newsboat are dope enough for my need right now. For nom rss, I think matcha looks similar but more polish and interestingly, Obsidian compatible…

Newsboat RSS reader are what I’ve been looking for!

• already installed on AntiX,
• native installation without any requirements,
• very simple interface,
• useful keybinding out of the box,
• easy to configure.

Thank you for this gem! perfectly fit with my herbsluftWM interface…

Great alternative! Mayber I’ll used Matcha on my Thinkpad x260 once I try to messing with Obsidian. Thank you…

Thank you for this, maybe I will used this for specific task in the future…

I used Thunderbird for my Thinkpad x260. But for x200s, TB is too power hungry…

This is great and most relevant answer from all comment on this topic imo! Viruses are evolve everyday, hacker always find a way to intercept computer that has same framework system.

QubesOS breaks that framework pattern and make their system more dynamic with VM-ing everything, so the impact of viruses are near-to-zero.

++ QubesOS also provide all security enhanced out of the box SO we can enhanced it more with other security tools rather than start from RAW system like majority Linux OS…

Thank you for correct me, now I get what I need right now from this correction…

Unpopular opinion: Antix Linux for workstation, because:

1. It’s Debian
2. Very lightweight (100mb on RAM)
3. Live to RAM
4. Frugal installation
5. Small size ISO (1gb) with full function utility
6. Flexibel recovery, from old to modern system
7. Responsive (no systemd)
8. Retro-kind WM (icebox-wm), perfectly match on retro system

Drives made with SLC flash memory are practically nonexistent. Affordable ones completely so. Times have changed.

Yes, there are many SSD SLC with afforable price right now too, for example ADATA SU650 I used. The benefit SLC over other types in the video I provide before are after we secure erase our SSD. SLC provide less latency than others, and trim from SSD controller are not enough to clean the data or reduce the latency after using it for long time (based by research in the paper). And from point of security as the main topic in paper, show a good point that SLC give more clean data format than others for privacy minded people (focused on that right now). I’m still searching the latest paper about this topic… still stuck in this because others not explain well or have proof with research / comparison as this.

Any SSD manufactures will fine as long you remember to choose SSD with SLC type for fastest, more durable, less error-prone, and security integration (on this link for further information). With the longest guarantee from the manufactures too will be great for you in long term usage.

For secure thing, SLC is the best option you have as you can see this video from this source that I found week ago. SSD with SLC type will maximize your productivity than other types, while also keep your privacy when you want sell them in the future.

I know the sources I’ll give to you are from 2011/13 research like this comment. But as far as I know, this sources are the best explanation that give me deep understanding on how SSD works, rather than just articles or simple explanation things from manufactures with no deep explanation how they methods works. It’s up to you to in the end…
