The phone has a Fedora now | Ori's Weird Blog This is just a short update about the server that has been hosting this website and all the other stuff I host. As you may or may not be aware, it is a phone, a phone with linux to be exact, a Pocophone F1 running the postmarketOS kernel and Arch Fedora to be even more exact! While I like the work that has gone into porting Arch to arm64 with the Arch Linux ARM project, the distro is not really in the best shape, with several packages missing and having to be installed from the AUR or built manually. It became quite annoying to deal with, so I decided to install Fedora 42, which has a well-supported arm variant. The way I went about it is probably not very well supported - I pretty much just used the container rootfs and manually installed everything I need - but that does save me a lot of effort on a device like this, because I can prepare a complete bootable system on another btrfs subvolume, and then use the existing kernel and initramfs to boot into it. https://blog.fawx.news/posts/the-phone-has-a-fedora-now/
