Hi all,

I’m very much a Linux newbie. I originally read that Nobara was great for gaming (and it is) but I’ve read even better things about Bazzite and want to give it a whirl.

My question is, am I able to download it to a usb and just do a clean install without issues or do I have to do anything beforehand. I originally installed Nobara using btrfs if that makes any difference.

Like I said I’m really new at this, hopefully it’s ok to post this here but if not please let me know where would be more appropriate.

    Oh, that should be no worry. You can always do a clean install of one distro over another. Just make sure in the setup that when you select your data partitions on your other drives that you don’t remake the partitions (at that would delete them). You’ll also have to deal with differences in config files in your home directory since there is variance between Nobara and Bazzite. You can just grab the ISO and install normally, deleting the Nobara partitions.
