According to ark.intel.com, the N100 only supports 16GB. It probably still works with 32GB, but if it doesn’t you’re on your own.

Votum mit AfD: Linkenfraktionschefin äußert Verständnis für Thüringer CDU (www.spiegel.de) German

Amira Mohamed Ali (Linke) hat das Vorgehen der CDU in Thüringen verteidigt, als dort mit AfD-Stimmen ein Gesetz beschlossen wurde. Zitat: “Ich wundere mich über diese Debatte und dass in diesem Fall auch vom Einreißen einer Brandmauer die Rede ist, das empfinde ich überhaupt nicht so.”

I am not familiar with UTM, but if you want to use it for gaming, 86Box might work better because it supports 3D acceleration.

Tips on running multiple distros together on my laptop?

Hello all, sorry for such a newbish question, as I should probably know how to properly partition a hard drive, but I really don’t know where to start. So what I’m looking to do is install a Debian distro, RHEL, and Arch. Want to go with Mint LMDE, Manjaro, and Fedora. I do not need very much storage, so I don’t think...

Gurfaild,

One thing that might matter is that if all distros use the same swap partition for hibernation, you shouldn’t boot one distro after hibernating another or you might overwrite the saved RAM contents.

If you use different swap partitions or files, you probably should still avoid writing to a partition that belongs to a distro that isn’t actually shut down.

Gurfaild,

I think the easier solution would be not to use hibernation - either shut the system down properly or use suspend-to-RAM.

If everything works, the bootloader should be whichever GRUB version comes with the distro you install first and the other distros’ installers should just add entries to boot them.

Gurfaild,

There shouldn’t be any significant difference between the GRUB versions that come with different distros, so the order in which you install the distros doesn’t really matter.

You can’t install multiple distros on one partition, so you need at least one partition per distro.

Gurfaild,

The first installer will install the bootloader automatically.

It will also create a swap partition unless you tell it not to, and all distros will use all swap partitions by default, so you don’t need more than one per disk.

If you don’t hibernate one distro and then boot another, sharing a swap partition isn’t a problem.

Gurfaild,

A swap partition doesn’t have a filesystem - it has its own partition type and doesn’t contain files. The installer might create one automatically or it might not - if it asks how large it should be, a good rule of thumb is to use the same size as your RAM.

If that turns out not to be enough, you can create a swap file on a data partition later and if it’s too large, you just wasted a few GB but usually that doesn’t matter.

Gurfaild,

Hibernation is an OS feature, so you can’t disable it in the BIOS. You can either disable it in all your distros or simply not use it.

Gurfaild, (edited )

There are no BIOS partitions - you may be confusing the term with the BIOS partition scheme, but that doesn’t matter in this context “BIOS partitions” do exist, but they are irrelevant on modern machines - they are for booting GPT disks on systems that only support MBR disks.

If you need an EFI partition, the first installer will create one. As for the sizes, the recommendation in the other comment makes sense to me (one ≈60 GB partition per distro, one swap partition and one partition for your personal files that uses the remaining space on the disk).

Gurfaild,

The order of the partitions shouldn’t matter - usually the EFI partition comes first if there is one at all, but as far as I know that isn’t actually required.

Gurfaild,

If the installer doesn’t automatically create an EFI partition, you can create a small FAT16 or FAT32 partition (a few hundred MB should be enough).

The swap partition is just a swap partition - that is the partition type you select in your partitioning tool.

The storage partition can be any format you want. If you don’t need to access it from Windows, just use ext4.

Mount points are similar to drive letters, but more flexible. You can read these Wikipedia articles: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mount_(computing)en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fstab

Gurfaild,

You can create dedicated partitions for /home, but unless you know why it makes sense in your specific situation, you shouldn’t.

The data partition is just another partition that you can mount somewhere, for example /mnt/storage.

Gurfaild,

If you install your first distro without creating any partitions manually, the installer will probably create an EFI partition. Maybe it wouldn’t need to create one on your specific system, but it will probably do it anyway.

Gurfaild,

Usually you create an entry in /etc/fstab that tells the system which partition should be mounted where. I’d do that in each distro once you have installed all of them.

Gurfaild,

It’s similar to how drive letters work in Windows: the partition you installed it on is C:\ and you can assign any other letter to any other partition.

On Linux, the partition you installed it on is / and you can mount other partitions in any empty directory.

Gurfaild,

You can only mount one partition at one mount point, but any empty directory on one partition can be a mount point for another partition.

GPT is a partition table and is not used for Linux specifically, but on any computer with UEFI - it defines how to find partitions on a disk, but not how they are formatted.

ext4 is a filesystem - formatting a partition with ext4 means creating data structures that tell the OS where to find files and directories in the partition.

Gurfaild,

Mount points are specific to one install - for example, you can mount your Manjaro root partition as /mnt/manjaro on Fedora. From every distro’s perspective, the partition it is installed on is /.

You seem to be mixing up the locations of partitions and mount points - a partition is somewhere on a disk and a mount point is basically a sign that points to it, and every distro can have different signs that point to the same thing.

Gurfaild,

You only need mount points in each distro for partitions that you want to be able to access from that distro. If you don’t need access to your Arch system files from Debian, don’t mount the Arch partition in Debian.

But if you have a partition that you want to access from multiple distros, you don’t need to use the same mountpoint in each distro - just like a USB flash drive can be E:\ on one Windows computer and H:\ on another - that is just a name and the files on it are the same.

m.2 nvme ssd on pcie expansion card.

Does anyone have any experience how well m.2 pcie expansion card work? With the current prices of nvme it’s not that expensive get 4tb m.2 drives. Outright speed isn’t the most important, so it not big deal if some pcie lanes have to be shared. My ‘worry’ is that when I upgrade my computer it might not recognize the m.2...

Gurfaild,

Adapter cards for one PCIe M.2 SSD are completely passive and work on every motherboard with PCIe. If the card has multiple M.2 slots, you need either a PCIe switch on the card or a motherboard that supports PCIe bifurcation.

I upgraded an old machine that doesn’t have PCIe 3.0 or M.2 slots with a Samsung 950 Pro in an adapter card and I haven’t noticed any issues - the SSD only runs at PCIe 2.0 speeds, but that’s fast enough for me.

Sometimes plugging a PCIe card into one slot will cause fewer or no lanes to be allocated to another slot, so you should check your motherboard’s manual before buying a new card.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Windows Terminal, is in fact, PowerShell/Windows Terminal, or as I’ve recently taken to calling it, PowerShell plus Windows Terminal. Windows Terminal is not a shell unto itself, but rather another component of a fully functioning command line environment made useful by the PowerShell shell, command line utilities and vital cmdlets comprising a full environment as defined by Microsoft.

Many computer users run a modified version of PowerShell every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of PowerShell which is widely used today is often called Windows Terminal, and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the PowerShell system, developed by the PowerShell Project.

There really is a Windows Terminal, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Windows Terminal is the terminal emulator: the program in the system that handles console I/O for the other programs that you run. The terminal emulator is an essential part of a command line environment, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete command line environment. Windows Terminal is normally used in combination with the PowerShell shell: the whole system is basically PowerShell with Windows Terminal added, or PowerShell/Windows Terminal. All the so-called Windows Terminal distributions are really distributions of PowerShell/Windows Terminal!

Are there any pitfalls to avoid in buying PCIe/m.2 adapters?

I’m planning on giving an older machine a small upgrade with an SSD, but since that machine does not have an m.2 port, I was thinking about buying the cheapest PCIe adapter I could find. Besides the obvious stuff like ports, PCIe gen and lane count, is there anything I should look out for? Specifically regarding Linux?

Gurfaild,

If your machine doesn’t have UEFI, only a few early NVMe SSDs are bootable, for example the Samsung 950 Pro. If you can’t find one, you could try installing the bootloader on a USB stick.
