1: how to disable ipv6?
i tried ‘echo ‘ipv6.disable=1’ | sudo tee /etc/kernel/cmdline’ and followed up with a ‘sudo reinstall-kernels’ but i was left with an unbootable system (error msg: a start job is running for /dev/gpt-auto-root - it never finishes)
2: how do i make linux default on the systemd-boot screen if linux-lts is installed?
3: how do i remove windows from the systemd-boot screen (not terribly important)
this is a new install, plasma,dracut, systemd-boot, ext4, luks
Well…yeah, you overwrote your cmdline with only ipv6.disable=1. That would definitely break it. You need to edit the file and add that to the end of the line.
Use wildcard in /efi/loader/loader.conf. If you share the output of ls /efi/loader/entries I can help with that.
Add the line auto-entries no in /efi/loader/loader.conf
