I know this is a niche of a niche, but are there any known `systemd-boot` + `nvidia driver` builds or configs anyone can point me to?

I wouldn’t be dissuaded from having to do one myself, just wanted to kick the tires on one if it was already out there.

I’m with you on wanting a robust, atomic system with `systemd-boot` 😉 I highly prefer `systemd-boot` myself over `GRUB` for its simplicity and ease of use. Unfortunately ostree itself [doesn’t systemd-boot support yet](https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/issues/1719).

I don’t think a good BTRFS snapshot rollback integration with `systemd-boot` even exists yet, if any. [This EndeavourOS forum thread](https://forum.endeavouros.com/t/snapper-systemd-boot-integration/37451) for example has someone sharing their workaround to get snapshots bootable from the `systemd-boot` menu, but that needs workarounds for `/boot` to keep the snapshots bootable after a kernel upgrade. There’s [snapper\_systemd\_boot](https://github.com/cscutcher/snapper_systemd_boot) on GitHub, but it doesn’t seem to be alive.

It seems [openSUSE microOS](https://www.reddit.com/r/openSUSE/comments/16v9p5p/aeon_with_systemdboot/) is working on it for Aeon’s release, there’s a link to openSUSE’s progress down the thread. It will be interesting to see its development!

But also. . . [systemd-boot support · Issue #1719 · ostreedev/ostree · GitHub](https://github.com/ostreedev/ostree/issues/1719#issuecomment-1749394763)

I wouldn’t use BTRFS. I’d be using LVM+XFS.

BTRFS is just not my cup of tea, seeing how many issues with `ro mounts` , games and others, also distros not having a native solution to integrate Snapshots as it’s main feature amongst other things.
