Vanilla OS continues to innovate, building on Ubuntu, but bringing an immutable base and atomic updates. It’s great to see it alongside @ProjectBluefin, @Fedora Atomic, @AeonDesktop, @Ubuntu Core Desktop, and @nixos_org.
There's a new guide explaining how Full Disk Encryption (FDE) will work in Aeon's upcoming RC3 release

Today in @AeonDesktop
- Locales also work for migrations/reinstalls

- Fixed the image build so ignition works straight off the installer USB stick at designed
Next, FDE experiments :)

The new @AeonDesktop installer is shaping up really nice
Just finishing up a module that will detect existing @AeonDesktop / MicroOS installations and offer to backup/restore /home and all user accounts to the installer USB stick before deploying a nice fresh Aeon image
