How to install Bazzite sharing home with Fedora (lemmy.world)

submitted 1 month ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

8 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I have a ddsktop with Windows and Fedora and few other Linux distros already installed. I have a spare partition for the OS itself but have to share /home with the Fedora install.

How do I do this safely without formatting /home?

Yeah ext4 works fine. It's just a mounting point. You're not recreating the home partition, just using it.

About the EFI partition, I'm pretty sure you just need GRUB on it, and it should detect everything just fine. But I never triple booted so there's that.

About /var, it's because it's fully writable. Dunno why they didn't just make /home writable too.

There is one last doubt about /var.

I already have /boot, /boot/efi from my Fedora install. I have separate / partition for Bazzite. I want to share the /fedorahome which I plan to mount as /var/home for Bazzite too. Do I need a separate /var partition in addition to this or can I designate / or /fedorahome for /var?
