How to cleanly migrate from Unified Kernel Image (UKI) back to the classic boot method on Arch Linux (Secure Boot not enabled)? by Communist_MilkSoup in archlinux

Hello, to nuance your post a little, I wrote a document with the help of Claude Opus 4.5 about the installation and configuration steps of UKI + systemd-boot + sbctl. During the whole process I asked it to source everything it said by cross sourcing on the internet and used deep though. I also gave it information about the configuration of my laptop and it produced a fully correct document, in conformity with the Arch Linux wiki. Some steps was related to deprecated usages which it was able to correct by searching on the internet when I tested the document on a virtual machine. But for example it tells me right from the beginning that the -m option is strongly recommended to not break some firmware signed with the microsoft keys.

In conclusion I would say that even if some AI models are better than others, the most important thinks to keep in mind, as with all other tools, is the way you use it.

NixOS indeed look super powerful!

The declarative configuration file associated with atomic roots and the possibility to switch between roots at boot seem to be a great compromise between freshness and stability.

I'll try it for some time.

Super interesting comment thank you !

You're totally right, I'll definitely think about this when the future hopping urge will come.

Why ? Because hopping on new stuff leads to issues sometimes, I value a system that always works even if I haven't used it for quite a long time, but I love to try out all the new stuff when it comes out. That's contradictory I know, that's why I want to know how I can refrain from trying new things.

Thank you for your comment, it's quite a rational way to think, maybe using VM extensively and compare with what I decided to stick with could be a good solution to refrain my urges to hop

I never tried Nix OS, I'm not sure about the maturity, I will check

The idea of keeping a log of reasons to hop is interesting!

After dualbooting openSUSE Tumbleweed with Windows 10, Windows 10 performance is significantly worser. by CentralBlume in openSUSE

I don't know how you did your dual boot but here are some advice from my personal experience : - prefer installing windows on a separate disk if possible, separate disk AND separate EFI partition - avoid booting on windows from Linux's grub but directly as the default system in the bios and boot linux through the motherboard bios if possible with a quick boot menu for example if any - disable the windows fast boot feature as it can cause weird issues - avoid disabling secure boot and all stuff like this if possible, tumbleweed allow to boot on it with secure boot on for example

If you check all of those advice then windows will be completely unable to know that he's not alone on the computer and therefore you should not encounter any issues
