Fedora 45 Looks To Finally Offer Install Support For Stratis Storage
Ever since RHEL deprecated their short-lived Btrfs plans, Red Hat engineers over the past decade have been developing Stratis Storage as their storage management solution leveraging XFS, LUKS, DM, and their Rust-based daemon. While Stratis Storage has been available in Fedora Linux going all the way back to Fedora 28, until now there hasnāt been the option of using it for the root file-system on new Fedora installations. Finally with Fedora 45 ā¦ ā Read more

@lyse These days (and itās been like that for a while), almost everything is loaded on-demand depending on which hardware the OS finds, so you can simply copy all your files with

cp -a, install a bootloader, adjust some minor things /etc/fstab, done. Well, maybe not ādoneā, but itās easy to sort out the remaining stuff afterwards.
@bender@twtxt.net Itās been a while (6.5 years) since Iāve done this. Iād do it like this:
- Boot some Linux from a USB stick on the new machine. Preferably Arch Linux, since that is what Iām running and thatāll make the upcoming chroot easier.
- Partition the new disk, create LUKS devices, filesystems, ā¦
- Mount the new filesystems and copy all data (user data and the system itself ā everything). Do this either over the network or by hooking up the old disk directly.
- chroot into the new system (Arch has an
arch-chroottool for that which is used during normal installation, if Iām not mistaken). Inside the chroot, install the bootloader.
- Do some fixups, like adjusting
/etc/fstabor/etc/crypttab.
And I think that should be it. š¤
Red Hatās Stratis Storage 3.9 Released With Online Encryption/Decryption/Reencryption
Itās crazy to realize it has been ten years already since Red Hat abandoned their Btrfs plans for Red Hat Enterprise Linux and dropped it, which was a technology preview feature since RHEL6. In its place Red Hat engineers began developing Stratis for next-gen Linux storage with ZFS/Btrfs-like features but instead building atop XFS, LUKS, Device Mapper, and Clevis. After a while since the last major release, Stratis Storage 3 ā¦ ā Read more

TRIM on Btrfs on LUKS on a sparse disk image served with NBD actually works. I love free software.
