| ex-parrot | Boostisbetter: it should work fine I imagine if you port over the handful of userspace stuff | 01:21 |
|---|---|---|
| chartreuse | Also would need to use the patched and latest kernel with it. Might have issues if you're trying to use an installer's kernel | 01:22 |
| ex-parrot | right yeah, to be explicit ^ | 01:22 |
| ex-parrot | my general expectation is that any distro's userspace will Just Work more or less | 01:23 |
| chartreuse | Yeah it should, really just any armhf that's either generic or targetted to the reform's CPU | 01:23 |
| chartreuse | Just need to get the uboot pointed at the right kernel, then basically copy whatever distros userspace on the root | 01:24 |
| chartreuse | Probably could even just leave the emmc partition with all of the reforms stock stuff on it, then just put some other distros userspace as the root on the nvme or sd card | 01:25 |
| chartreuse | I know a few distros have tar images of userland roots premade, and others have tools to make it like Fedora or Debian | 01:25 |
| ex-parrot | this is what I've been doing with LFS so far | 01:26 |
| ex-parrot | (the SD card thing) | 01:26 |

| kfx | RHEL is missing a lot of packages on aarch64. It's not a serious contender for desktop use yet. | 02:18 |
| ex-parrot | ah | 02:19 |
| kfx | as an example, it has gnome, but is missing things like gnome-applets. lots of -devel packages are missing so you can't build your own. evolution is there, but not evolution-connector. polkit-gnome is missing... I could go on all day | 02:21 |
| ex-parrot | weird | 02:21 |
| kfx | it WORKS but it is not pleasant to use | 02:21 |
| kfx | I think they focus on getting the server stuff in there, and the workstation stuff is just best-effort | 02:21 |
| kfx | but that's just speculation on my part | 02:22 |

| Boostisbetter | kfx: thanks for the info. I just noticed they had a specific aarch64 build and that is why I asked. | 09:54 |
| Boostisbetter | It just that RHEL is the ultimate LTS Distro. Would be cool if it totally supported the Reform. | 09:55 |
| ex-parrot | every Debian release has LTS support now | 10:12 |
| ex-parrot | should be comparable | 10:12 |
| ex-parrot | bullseye, current debian stable, is supported on arm64 until June 2026 | 10:14 |
| ex-parrot | I guess RHEL 8 would get you ten years | 10:15 |
| ex-parrot | but if it's not a server running some banking Java you're probably going to be sick of running ten year old code... | 10:15 |
| Boostisbetter | Yeah, that is the downside. | 10:38 |
| Boostisbetter | Debian is great. | 10:38 |
| Boostisbetter | I prefer LTS in general. Stability to me is king. | 10:38 |
