I finally finished the nixos after hardworks as (beta)

Although there are unused codes that were transferred to another project and replacing something led to the explosion of science again, that is why I published this code before launching my own git.

This is part of the code, not the complete code, but specific only to nixOS

also this maybe will helps fetch nixos with my code, without my code it's like useless
https://www.reddit.com/r/bedrocklinux/comments/ak0xwu/nixos_on_poki_or_later_documentation

But there are conditions before this present :

It must be grub and support uefi/bios according to what I tried

Also, it should only be slash, boot, and store, not tmpfs in slash, according to your config

if you want use sudo inside strat you need type this

export PATH=$(echo $PATH | awk -v RS=: -v ORS=: '$0 != "/run/wrappers/bin" {print}' | sed 's/:$//')

also you need add paths for nixos in /bedrock/etc/bedrock.conf
as i trying with github pull request to brl-userland

brl must fix the error in /bedrock/share/common-code as i posted (before publishing)

I'm the same u/GeneralPotential7471. Before I shared the email with my brother.

There may be problems, but I want to focus on projects such as stratOS-Linux and snowXOS.

I also tried guix, but seriously, this is worse than nixOS, chromeOS, and android. Just do it yourself without brl. And good luck to all projects and people.

I fully supported nixOS with brlOS although there are bugs but just reboot the device and the issue is over

This means that it now supports xos, formerly called nixos-sox and snownix

There is another part, the bedrock-installer for nixos, but I will post it here soon. What do you think

And add this code to fix the problem when enabling nixOS from /bedrock/share/common-code

so i think it's no need add support nixos to brl-8

yeah you can remove codes with if was /etc/NIXOS
but i fear other strata will be unstable so that's why i add (#)

cfg_etcsh() {
$brl_runit -c '
        # Define the symlink targets as a single string
        files="profile fstab services protocols set-environment hosts hostname login.defs"

        # Loop through the files string
        for file in $files; do
            symlink="/etc/$file"

            if [ ! -L "$symlink" ]; then

so, I have a secondary SSD that I am able to write too and it has been mounted to a permanent directory, however steam is refusing to use the drive

so I installed bedrock ontop of endeavor os and im trying to use the fedora version of discord but it doesn't launch

Why does the endeavor os version have no fetch support or maintainer if the arch version does?

I really want losetup by busybox in beta or 7.31 updates and maybe other people want this

Oops I mean of title ( Losetup Support)

I use gentoo with openrc and have tried(and most of the times failed) to use distrobox to supply the lack of some packages. Should I use distrobox for it or wold it be overkill?

Hi I was working on a project but found myself editing bedrock stuff For example, CrossFS was replaced with sh scripts,

and bedrock.conf was also closed. For every strata, it has bedrock.conf or init.conf, and this reduces clutter, as people claim about brl, and this applies to init, and support for zfs, btrfs, tmpfs.

Is it okay to publish a project with brl or do you have a suggestion

• Info I fix the problem strat binary with binds but CrossFS it's own problem

I am curious about Bedrock Linux. What do you use the different layers for? Do most users use it mostly to have multiple package managers available on their system? Are there other good use cases?

I'm trying to start an artix-dinit strata but for whatever reason it keeps throwing errors related to pacman?

It stops at ``:: Synchronizing package databases...

error: failed to synchronize all databases (unexpected error)

==> ERROR: Failed to install packages to new root ``

I could boot into a devuan strata, and try installing it from there since I am currently in my Arch strata (I want to migrate *away* from systemd)

Hello.

I'm making an experiment. I've installed bedrock inside a virtual machine adding 4 stratus inside the system (ubuntu,debian,devuan,alpine).

At this point I've copied all the files of the bedrock linux system in FreeBSD and I've used it with the Linuxulator. The idea is to have the chance to use more linux distros simultaneously. It would be very comfortable.

Unfortunately it didn't work. This is what happened :

Also tried different mirrors gotten from here :

but none worked. How to fix it ?

i just installed bl on debian
i tried to install discord through pacman it did installed but i saw no executable file so i thought it maybe a pacman problem, i tried flatpak but it did same i cannot see any executable file the only way i can run discord is by typing it in terminal

also this happens with every software i install eg- ghostty

Hi, it's me again, i've tried to install zen-browser-bin via the AUR using YAY. when i try to running it globally it says this

Hi guys, i have a problem when i try to run fedora with

and i try to run fastfetch, it shows the Bedrock logo and all, however on Arch and Gentoo, it shows up as their respective logos

How to I get the tutorial to continue?

I have already added the 2 strata,

I have rebooted, and restarted the tutorial and its still not recognizing that the other strata are there.

I have this running on my proxmox server, I've tried it both through the qemu browser "console" and through ssh and it still just sits here. Am I missing something obvious?

Sometimes packages from some distros don't work, or need to be updated.
By having to update the Makepkg file in arch for example.

Could there be problems when I use the arch kernel, but install packages from other stratums?

I want to run a file/ davinci installer that cannot be installed by a package manager through a stratum.

Running:

strat Fedora /bedrock/strata/Fedora/home/file

does not work and returns due to: unable to find file (ENOENT)

Even though:
brl which /bedrock/strata/Fedora/home/file
does return Fedora

I have a PinePhone running UBports (Ubuntu Touch) and am interested in trying to hijack it with Bedrock Linux. I know Bedrock works with Ubuntu Desktop and UBports is closely related, but it uses some special tweaks under the hood.

Has anyone here successfully used Bedrock to hijack UBports? Any special steps involved in the process?

I recently installed Bedrock on top of Void Linux. I've been using Linux itself for roughly a decade, but I'm brand-new to Bedrock. My goal is simple: install yay so I can easily use the AUR. However, that's given me a bunch of dependency and conflicting package errors, something Bedrock is supposed to solve, which is why I'm decently sure this is a me problem. I heard pmm can set up yay (or something like that), but I was able to find barely any documentation. Can someone help me out with this? Thanks!

when I try to use brl strat [distro] [command] with any distro and any command, it always spits out an error of an ENOENT file missing. After some reserch I tried running npm init -y in several places, but nothing worked. here as an example, I did "brl strat ubuntu tilix" and this is the output:
.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
strat: warning: unable to set cwd to

/bedrock/strata/ubuntu/home/Toasti

for stratum

ubuntu

due to: no such directory (ENOENT).

falling back to root directory

strat: could not run

tilix

from stratum

ubuntu

due to: unable to find file (ENOENT)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

what do I do now??? Does anyone have any idea? :)

In bedrock, across different strata and init systems, sometimes systemctl suspends fails and the laptop hangs for around 20 seconds. Other times it works but it's unreliable. This is the journalctl -b -k log part about the suspend fail (I think):

So I tried every possible way to make grub be compatible with bedrock and so I made this btrfs partition as / and rxt4 as /boot when I installed and run bedrock it showed some problem with btrfs with grub when I checked I found out that the boot file in btrfs has all the grub , init etc .files and when I click on boot it switches me to /boot , idk how that is linked as it should not be anyways I thought to remove grub files and install bedrock after that I will reinstall grub I did and it worked but after grub reinstall and reboot I saw nothing but grub rescue I tried chrooting through netinstall img of Debian but it just don't want to chroot now I am thinking the problem is specific to btrfs with grub what if I use limine (another bootloader) in that way I will be able to install bedrock with btrfs . Pls can someone tell me is it possible as I don't want to waste my time anymore 😭🙏

i am on fedora workstation and bedrock do not let me install

I posted videos so that no one would doubt my work and you could suggest or help me

1 I made /etc binds so that it doesn't destroy them all

2 I used vmlinuz from stratOSL-ArchLinux

3 I repaired the networks and am still repairing the ecosystem with brlOS

i'm using brl import, not brl fetch UwU

i forget, i'm using blender on debian

I still don't know how to solve apt or steam, even though I did more than I could, and yet I'm trying to release it without problems

What do you think

I have a report of files causing nixos and bedrock to freeze together

If you ask how I was able to run Nixos on brl, in short, make init and config nixos compatible with brl, 
But the Snownix project is undergoing significant change and ambition nonetheless, 
so with these changes I will delete my discord work account with problems and support stratOS-Linux behind the scene, anyway

These are possible files because they are links and need to be read as chroot
