  • Well, in case anyone is interested, I found a way to workaround my problem.

    I edited ../proton/vpn/backend/linux/networkmanager/protocol/wireguard/wireguard.py. Added mtu property to the Config class, then at the end of _set_wireguard_properties added this:

    # Added by RandomChain - setting the MTU
    logger.info(f'### RandomChain says: setting mtu to {wg_config.ipv4.mtu}')
    wireguard_config.set_property(
        NM.SETTING_WIREGUARD_MTU,
        wg_config.ipv4.mtu
    )
    

    I know it’s ugly and hacky, but it works for me. I should probably open a bug to be able to properly change it from the app settings.




  • I use openmediavault for my home NAS, it does all the heavy lifting for you with a nice GUI so you don’t have to config everything yourself. I’d recommend checking it if you don’t have a lot of experience with RAID setups or don’t want to do manually.

    Just please remember that RAID is not a backup solution, it’s a redundancy solution. If you have data corruption on one side, it can copy itself to the other mirror and then you’re screwed. If your media is important, keep a proper separate backup.















    • Not sure if the installer would run, you may have to disable secure boot just for that. But you can run Pop with secure boot although there is no built in support. You will have to sign the kernel yourself everytime there’s a new version.
    • Yes, from the custom install option you can set up the partitions however you like on the drives you select. If you don’t want to overwrite the Windows drive by mistake, you can physically disconnect it before installing Pop.
