Rebasing from Aurora to Aurora DX

I know there was some talk about “Universal Blue project now officially recommends installing their images through provided ISOs instead of rebasing”.

But that should only apply to switching between desktop environments? I will be going from Aurora to Aurora DX.

What’s the right way to do this?

sudo rpm-ostree rebase ostree://fedora:fedora/41/x86_64/aurora-dx?

Here’s where I’m currently at:

State: idle
AutomaticUpdates: stage; rpm-ostreed-automatic.timer: no runs since boot
Deployments:

Just

sudo bootc switch --enforce-container-sigpolicy ghcr.io/ublue-os/aurora-dx:stable

Thanks! I’ll give it a go.

Worked fine! Had to re-install layered packages.
