    Have not tried immutable distros, but I like the idea that the core OS is read-only to prevent a rookie user from messing things up.

    Then again, if the core OS is read-only, is it at all possible to modify some system files like fstab files to auto-load drives?

      /etc is completely writeable. This is why we don’t use the term “immutable distros” because Bazzite and the rest of universal blue are neither immutable nor distros.

      (This is why Fedora moved to the term Atomic)

        Noted. I guess used the wrong definition for Bazzite and that confused me. LOL.

        Good to know that /etc is writable. I might have to download it and give it a spin. Thanks for clarifying.

      Yes, I don’t know all of the details, but most of the system config files like fstab and such are modifiable. I automount my NAS by putting a command in fstab.
