Please modify Fedora Cosmic Atomic SIG Readme to include prep steps for backtracking if desktop doesn't work #207

I just read the announcement about a call for a special interest group for Fedora Silverblue Cosmic. https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/thread/F5G4DOPVSOACS3BRC7ZPBF2TO6JIODMU/ https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1at9u14/proposing_a_fedora_sig_for_the_upcoming_cosmic/

Please modify the readme for the fedora cosmic atomic: https://github.com/ryanabx/fedora-cosmic-atomic It mentions one command for the rebase. Please ensure users that do that read the "how to rebase" so that they can backtrack if something goes wrong. https://fedoramagazine.org/how-to-rebase-to-fedora-linux-39-on-silverblue/

Disable selinux first

https://tecadmin.net/how-to-disable-selinux-on-fedora/

sudo nano /etc/selinux/config
SELINUX=disabled

update the system first

sudo rpm-ostree update

Pin the current deployment in GRUB so you can backtrack if things go wrong

sudo ostree admin pin 0

Now finally rebase the system to welcome our new cosmic desktop overlords

sudo rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ryanabx/fedora-cosmic-atomic-silverblue:latest-amd64

if something goes wrong(the bootup hung for me because SELINUX failed), you can undeploy:

sudo ostree admin status
sudo ostree admin undeploy 0

or rollback

rpm-ostree rollback

You should send this to the Fedora members involved with this. We are not members of Fedora so we aren't involved with managing that.

My bad: "For issues with the containers, feel free to submit an issue on this repo. For COSMIC related issues, please see https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-epoch"
