Rebasing to aurora

Aurora
1

I have installed Fedora Kinoite on my system, but I want to shift to Aurora, for the codecs and battries.

I initially resisted, as I thought that the inclusion of 2 apps for flatpak management, and support for devices I don’t use, is bloat. I now know that I can selectively remove them.

I want the latest image of Aurora [non-DX non-Asus] [I use MX350 which works well with nouveau if it ever works, I mostly don’t need nvidia]

I have manually layered distrobox, btrfs-assistant, iwd, duperemove and nvme-cli.

NOTE: I have stock fedora kinoite installed, so no ujust helper.

A document tells how you can rebase, but I get the following error:

Pulling manifest: ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/ublue-os/aurora:latest
error: Preparing import: Fetching manifest: containers-policy.json specifies a default of `insecureAcceptAnything`; refusing usage

Plz help; Aurora is an excellnt distro.

You are trying to rebase to a signed image from Kinoite which won’t work.

First get rid of your layered packages with rpm-ostree reset and reboot.

Then follow these:

Thanks, I’m on it.

BTW, can I suggest the Aurora devs to replace wpa_supplicant with iwd, along with necessary configuration file for NetworkManager?

Never say never I guess.

I recommend to file an issue (request) in GitHub · Where software is built

Then we can take look at it. But generally we try not to diverge too much from the base Kinoite base.

It is something which would be appropriate in Kinoite itself.

BTW, please include btrfs-assistant, as well as a btrfs deduplicator like duperemove, bees or whatever.

Please create an issue on the GitHub project page for requests for packages. We generally include them if they look helpful for the 96%, as that’s one of the guiding goals for Bluefin/Aurora: See Welcome to Bluefin | Bluefin
