I’ve installed rpm-ostree and libostree but when I do
rpm-ostree upgrade
I get
error: This system was not booted via libostree; cannot operate
can I mount the system with libostree ?
Thanks, Rob.
Can you explain what you are trying to do here?
Are you trying to convert an existing install from Fedora to Silverblue? If so, I am not sure that is practical. It isn’t just a different package manager it is a fundamentally different system.
I just want to use rpm-ostree to easily rollback after smth package(s) go wrong after an update.
You can’t just use rpm-ostree
to manage packages on Fedora. It doesn’t work that way.
Silverblue is a different OS than the normal Fedora at a fairly fundamental level because it is based on os-tree. I think you would have to reinstall.
That being said, you should also realize that there are a lot of trade-offs with a Silverblue installation if you are considering moving in that direction.
Lastly, have you looked at dnf history
and the rollbacks it offers?
yes I’ve used dnf-history
few times
