Woahhh, easy, that's securely encrypted.

Right, LVM, Debian reinstalled, no extra home directory:

Looks like I'm more tech savvy than you lot.

If the empty space on the disk isn't right next to the partition you want to expand you can move the entire partitions so that you move the free space next to the one you want to expand

if it's nvme it shouldn't be important where that free space is

 

[someguyontheinternet]

if it's nvme it shouldn't be important where that free space is

Why is that?

Was of me. Deleted my swap and could suddenly allocate that 30GB because swap wasnt in the way.

Anyway, reinstall fixed it. With LVM and no seperate home dir

With few distros I saw similar behavior but that's really cuz of bug in partitioning software.
Anyway glad you got it working.
I'm always excited when setting up some open source OS until I get to something that's taken care with a click elsewhere but in my OS of choice it requires reading a book or two and help of international community. But once you set it up, o boy

Have you tried gentoo?

 

[SpiralusSancti]

Have you tried gentoo?

Yes, it's a nice distro. One of those that I consider as a very good option for daily use on desktops. And there are many cool spinoffs like pentoo for example.
Right now cuz of some hardware specific issues I'm considering MX Linux. It has really diverse options while setting it up and also loads of things out-of-box.

Well remember to give back, me being a member of the international community.

I think maybe it's because I didn't run Debian with LVM the first time.

As per usual, the IT admin sit around doing nothing, whilst us "noobs" have to do all the heavy lifting.

So please, check out my new Debian thread to address my remaining issues. It really means a lot. I appreciate all the help so far. x

Oh same here, I absolutely love trying to degoogle my phone, run only FOSS apps, Magisk/LsPosed/EdXposed modules etc, which is why Debian KDE was an unexpected dream (after having previously only used Ununtu/Mint. I'm going to start a FOSS thread later with everything I've found.

I definitely try with all I can but I too need a lot of refreshing and catching up in this area

It's been a rollercoaster ride, to say the least! As for Windows 11, I'm kind of on the fence myself. I mean, the curiosity's definitely there, but the whole process of compiling files into an ISO sounds like a hassle. Plus, diving into GitHub territory?

 

[someguyontheinternet]

Why would you need to compile an iso or do anything with github?

I keep my nose out but y'all remember pfsense on linux is kinda glitched, the variants.. Alpine fortigate, Alpine is kinda in-between rn, Linux usually is for small server operations. I thought i might help you so tranced with his random techy words doesn't spin your brain in two parts.

Compile ISO gets the slighest user input modification, say install something while OS install itself, back in days you need about 4 CD's to compile ISO, nowadays you can do it in Nero in less than 4m.

Yea but I thought we were talking about win11 in reference to ISOs and github, you can just download a win11 iso directly from the microsoft website

Just use pfsense on BSD, that's what it ships with anyhow

Linux is also great for HPC/clustering

 

[Lil'LinaptkSix]

Compile ISO

This is where it's at imo
Creates ones custom install on installation.
Used to do this kinda thing but sourced is from MDLF mostly digital river but I think that river has a lot more than isos maybe everything.
Do a lot with an iso ime....

that's great but it's irrelevant to the discussion.

not a little ironic...
