Hey,
in 2025 we had a wonderful time at the Hack-and-Hike :)I learned a lot
and in the end I had a laptop with a satisfying SculptOS setup and the
feeling that it’s achievable to use Genode as a hypervisor for my every
day use cases.The following weeks I enjoyed configuring a declarative
setup for systems with Genode +
NixOS:https://github.com/johannesloetzsch/nixos-genode-hybridIn the
future, I would be happy to build native apps using Goa. For now (the
transition), I’m happy about using declarative builds of VMs running the
software I’m familiar with.
The Ambition for 2026 to build bridges to other open-source projects and
new demographies really resonates with me :)I plan to improve my
existing setup and would like to provide reusable modules to allow
future users a smoother path to a usable setup.I'm thankfull about the
hours of amazing support I received from core-developers during the last
year :) However to make the potential in Genode available to a much
broader community than now, the simple availability of common open
source software should increase. I would love to have an community
maintained distribution of a setup similar to Qubes OS, but based on
Genode… This is a dream for a larger time period, but I would be happy
to exchange thoughts and do some prototyping in 2026… It's so nice, to
have other Genode users at our hackerspace, inspiring each other. They
plan to start a „user group“ with regular meetups in 2026 :)
Which topic is most interesting to me?To use Genode on my devices
without relevant security regressions, I require secure boot.For now my
setup allows booting the kernel via TrustedGRUB / Lanzaboote. However
till now, the sculpt-iso-image and the configurations (from
GENODE*-partition) are not signed. I have ideas how this could be
implemented, but I would prefer a clean solution, applicable to everyone
interested.In the end I want protect to the integrity up to starting VMs
(with a static MBR + boot partition).
Cheers,
Johannes
