7 months agoI installed it successfully on a 512 MB machine the other day, with LXQT. Didn’t run very well though.

Btrfs snapshots are great! All my filesystem is Btrfs, with subvolumes for root, home and var.
I’m using the Fedora immutable distros on many computers, it’s great to be able to boot into a previous version of the system if issues arise. Not that issues arise, since most packages are installed as Flatpaks, in a toolbox or in a container. Makes the systems nearly unbrickable.
I use Fedora IoT on one of mine, for the immutable OS and container focus.
I have the 128 GB storage 8 GB RAM, it’s still very usable. I often get annoyed with the small SSD, I’d assume 64 GB is way too small. Also if I remember correctly the 64 GB version has much slower eMMC storage, while the 128 GB and up have a real SSD.
