Installation

To rebase an existing atomic Fedora installation to the latest build:

• First rebase to the unsigned image, to get the proper signing keys and policies installed:

  sudo rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/mecattaf/zen:latest
  

• Reboot to complete the rebase:

  systemctl reboot
  

• Then rebase to the signed image, like so:

  sudo rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/mecattaf/zen:latest
  

• Reboot again to complete the installation

  systemctl reboot
  

Manual Steps

• Copy over git credentials
• Authenticate to google chrome and follow through [docs/chrome.md]
• Authenticate to tailscale with tailscale login
• Authenticate to thunderbird and follow through [docs/thunderbird.md]

Troubleshooting flatpaks

If a flatpak is broken, revert versions using:

flatpak list
flatpak remote-info --log flathub com.google.Chrome
flatpak update --commit=<commit-of-working-version> com.google.Chrome

Rolling back to previous versions

View the list of available builds by entering:

skopeo list-tags docker://ghcr.io/mecattaf/zen | sort -rV

Rebasing to a specific build requires users to open a host terminal and enter:

rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/ublue-os/IMAGE-NAME:VERSION-YEARMONTHDAY

Example:

rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-deck:39-20240113

For the Jan. 13th 2024 bazzite-deck (Fedora 39) build.

To revert back to Silverblue

sudo rpm-ostree rebase fedora:fedora/40/x86_64/silverblue
