True story: I did get up to 11 distros recently in a multiboot setup on my Thinkpad. I used Refind for the boot manager and everything worked well.
I had:
1 - Fedora
2 - Alma Linux
3 - Anti-X
4 - Slackware
5 - ElementaryOS
6 - Linux Mint
7 - Mageia
8 - EndeavourOS
9 - PopOS
10 - Lubuntu
11 - openSUSE
I’ll probably make another run at it and try to get up to 20. I need to lay out the partitions better. I definitely need to add Void and Alpine to the list.
touch grasstouch: cannot touch `grass': Permission deniedbut in which distro should you run this?
any loosely posix-following os will work with this.
EDIT: joke went over my head
I’m not hearing a “no”
I use Linux because it gets out of my way and lets me get things done.
To you Linux seems to be the thing that needs to get done…?
One question: Why?
I agree with the ball, it would be easier and more convenient to use virtualization, containers or something similar.
If I don’t have 1tb of wiggle room the system is entirely useless to me
22, 1 for /home and 1 /home for that one odd distro that does things vastly different.
Just use a virtual machine
Whole disk LVM2 logical volume with a thin pool. Now you can have as many “partitions” as you like. Enable vdo deduplication and save even more space.
Why would one need anything other than Slackware?
For the little distro hopper in your family!
Upvoting for nerf now
I forgot about this comic.
20-disk RAID5 it is then.
Yes.
