REFORM-BOOT-CONFIG(8)

πŸ“¦ version 1.68, in ubuntu questing

πŸŽ€ reform-boot-config β€” the girlies' guide πŸ’–

okay so bestie, welcome to reform-boot-config, section 8 of the System Administration Utilities manual. she lives in the system administration corner of the manpage universe and she's here to help you pick which rootfs to boot from. iconic behaviour, honestly. πŸ¦‹


✨ NAME ✨

reform-boot-config β€” choose rootfs to boot from πŸ‘‘


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so. here's the thing. the way this page rendered for us is giving chaos. not me showing you a description that is literally just a stack of errors 😭 but fr fr, this is what came through, verbatim, no edits, no cap:

cat: /proc/device-tree/model: No such file or directory cat:
/proc/device-tree/model: No such file or directory cat:
/proc/device-tree/model: No such file or directory E: unable to find
config for

so what you're seeing up there is:

  • cat: /proc/device-tree/model: No such file or directory β€” and then again, cat: /proc/device-tree/model: No such file or directory, and then a third time, cat: /proc/device-tree/model: No such file or directory πŸ’€ like bestie we get it, the file is not there
  • E: unable to find config for β€” and yeah, that sentence just... ends. no config name, no nothing. it's giving cliffhanger πŸ™ˆ
lowkey important: that's literally all the description we got. no options, no examples, no environment variables, no exit statuses, no SEE ALSO. this page is a mystery wrapped in a /proc path. don't invent details, bestie β€” we work with what we have. πŸ’…

and to be super clear about the vibe check: reform-boot-config is the tool for choosing the rootfs to boot from. that's the whole thesis. that's the main character energy. everything else on this page is the terminal yelling into the void. 🌈


🫢 a lil sign-off 🫢

this absolute gem of a manual page is from reform-boot-config 1.68, dated February 2025 β€” so she's fresh, she's current, she's just a little broken. slay anyway. πŸ’œ

stay booted, bestie. β­πŸŽ€
