just test it out.

some setups will work fine with wayland and some will work better with xorg.

there are of course ways solve those issues, but it’s easier to test both and use the one that works best for you.

wayland is the future, but the present is whatever works best for you.

does anything create matter? or just transforms it?

you are mistaking having a hobby with having a true passion for something.

the problem is that a lot of people are passionate about nothing.

dd is good if the destination disk is equal or bigger, unless you are brave enough to shrink the source partition.

if you are moving to a smaller disk for whatever reason (hdd to sdd) then you need to fallback to a different method, which takes us back to cp/rsync.

why not? sudo cp -ax foots the bill.

I assume people prefer rsync because you may need to run it twice, but unless you tick all the boxes rsync won’t copy capabilities (see getcap /usr/bin/rsh)

sudo cp -ax is short and sweet and does everything right.

it’s not the recommended way but it’s how I’ve been doing.

you format the new drives and just cp -a -x from the running os to the destination, update the destination fstab, then treat the new drives as an os with a broken boot and continue from there.

meme made by someone without eye problems I imagine.

I cannot see that logo unless I get into an awkward distance, so I’m asking.
