Is there a way to move distro without loosing data in /home? I am currently running Pop OS and want to move to Nix OS while keeping the data. Normally I could use an external hard drive or my server, but most of my equipment is in storage at the moment. Current partition setup is using LUKS and LVM with ext4. I am guessing there is a way to manipulate the LVM to make it work by adding another partition and installing into it.

I know this is probably a convoluted idea. I am trying to avoid spending money an another external drive.

    I think it stands for b-tree as that’s the data structure is uses internally. I could be wrong though.

        Why not Butter FS?

        Also what’s it better than? Than ZFS? Not really. Than BCacheFS? Maybe right now but probably not for long.
