From 5427d621c5bd11cbe8b9ff1c04f40bc407678a98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Zenla Date: Sat, 26 Sep 2026 20:26:57 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] docs(setup): describe the filesystem of /boot on openSUSE The openSUSE guide said most Debian systems use ext4 for /boot, copied from the Debian guide. openSUSE uses Btrfs by default, so say so and point to the Btrfs driver, keeping ext4 as the example. --- docs/setup/signed/opensuse.md | 6 ++++-- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/docs/setup/signed/opensuse.md b/docs/setup/signed/opensuse.md index 4f6840d..6c012f9 100644 --- a/docs/setup/signed/opensuse.md +++ b/docs/setup/signed/opensuse.md @@ -60,7 +60,7 @@ $ cp /usr/share/efi/aarch64/fallback.efi /boot/efi/EFI/sprout/fallback.efi Download the latest sprout.efi release from the [GitHub releases page](https://github.com/edera-dev/sprout/releases).
