Just a quick thought. These days you can create a special partition in the first part of your drive and just boot from it. No grub, no config really. You might want to take a look at EFI and an EFI system partition perhaps?

One idea is perhaps to have more than one device? A tablet at home could be used in some scenarios, the rooted phone for some others. Maybe you have an old device laying around?

Here’s how I build my own images. More details are in the repo, feel free to re-use https://gitlab.com/olof-nord/selfhosted/-/blob/main/images/Makefile

Only unstable, right?

I should say as well, postgres, mariadb and memcached all support riscv, you just got to build it yourself. I have found the riscv64 ubuntu docker images useful as well to use as a base - for example the riscv64/ubuntu one.

I do! Since a while I selfhost with my risc-v Unmatched board. There are prebuilt Ubuntu Server images available. Its mainly for software which you have the source code for, and are willing to build from source. I’ve made use of docker buildx for cross cmpilation a fair bit as well. Go and Rust has good support. A good start can be to check out the riscv-bringup repo from carlosedp. Its definitely early days though, you need to be pretty motivated. Debian support is scheduled for next year AFAIK.

So, what do I actually use it for? nginx + tailscale so far

In case you haven’t seen it already - 3mdeb shared some info on the state of things during last FOSDEM. If I’m not mistaken they also did an update the year before too.

I know of exactly 1 AMD corebooot laptop. Starlabs Starfighter.

For coreboot you’re basically on Intel. As others mentioned, look up dasharo. They have added support for two modern MSI motherboards and Intel cpu models.

Test!

My vote goes to Mullvad. Possibly Proton VPN as a second contender.

I didn’t know about GMaps WV, thanks for sharing.

Reading the logs, im curious what happens if you unplug the MG2900LAN printer? It seems to me as well to cause the crash.

From their readme:

For the project as a whole, it is not free. You are FORBIDDEN to distribute the apk compiled by you (including modified, e.g., rename app name “Shizuku” to something else) to any store (IBNLT Google Play Store, F-Droid, Amazon Appstore etc.).

I don’t get it?

Am I old if I even recognize reddit reposts on lemmy? I guess we’ve gone full circle now

Thanks for sharing! Just bought it

+1 for Organic Maps. Create an open streetmap account and contribute - its a game changer for me. Instead of a consumer, you’re a contributor. (That goes for all OSM ofc)

Yes. I use QKSMS for text messages now instead.

Ah, I was wondering why I couldn’t find how. Makes sense now. Thanks for sharing!

Very well written article, very much worth a read.

I’ve been wondering this for a long time too actually. Perhaps the name was taken?
