I never used ATA Security commands with NVME or SSDs, but I did use them with spinning rust ATA and SATA drives. I even had a BIOS module added into the firmware of the motherboard to manage ATA Security [0]. I have a few comments to make:

I had nothing but problems since that was introduced in 6.1. It seems that the kernel prefers to compact/defrag memory, repeatedly, each time freezing everything 1-2 seconds, rather than releasing some disk cache memory or swapping out

OpenWrt on some devices such as Turris Omnia writes the squashfs (mounted as RO root fs) in the "root" partition and then, immediately after, in the same partition, it writes a jffs2 (mounted as RW overlayfs). So it can be done.

I don't know how Linux driver updates FAT, but if it doesn't do it the way DOS did, then it's a bug that puts data at risk. 1) Allocate space in FAT#2, 2) Write data in file, 3) Allocate space in FAT#1, 4) Update directory en

FAT can be made tolerant form the driver just like a journaled FS: 1) mark blocks allocated in first FAT If a crash occurs here, then data written is incomplete, so write FAT1 with data from FAT2 discarding all changes. 2) write

I wonder if formatting the floppy is necessary. Could syslinux or maybe lilo load the kernel directly from raw floppy sectors and have the initrd appended to it and the commad line directly inside the kernel via CONFIG_CMDLINE? I know u-boo

I would prefer a GenBook RK3588 instead. At least I know RK3588 support is now in mainline uboot, kernel and mesa. Too bad it was abandoned. I guess too few people were interested.
