An experimental "Pre-RC3" image for the Aeon Desktop has been published and testers are encouraged to try out the final prototype before it becomes the official Release Candidate 3 (RC3). The new image can be downloaded from the openSUSE development repository.

This prototype, which has been submitted to openSUSE Factory, introduces some significant changes and improvements. Notably, the dd backend in the tik installer has been replaced with a new systemd-repart backend. This change allows for the installation of Aeon with Full Disk Encryption that enhances the security features of the operating system.

Existing users of Aeon RC2 and earlier versions will need to perform a reinstall to take advantage of the new features destined for RC3. Due to the fundamental changes in partition layout necessary for the new encryption features, an in-place upgrade from RC2 is not feasible without risking data integrity, according to a post on the new Aeon Desktop subreddit. Users can utilize Aeon's reinstall feature, which facilitates the backup and restoration of user data as long as a sufficiently large USB stick is used.

Users installing the prototype image may encounter some packages from the OBS devel project. These can be removed by running transactional-update --interactive dup and selecting solutions that replace devel:microos packages with official ones.

Testers are encouraged to provide feedback and report any issues encountered during the testing phase on the Aeon Desktop bug report page.

Next Steps

If the prototype is accepted into Factory and becomes RC3, the development of Aeon will be in its final stages before an official release. RC3 will serve as the basis for writing openQA tests for Aeon, which are crucial for ensuring the desktop's stability and functionality.

There is a possibility of an RC4, which aims to streamline the installer process by embedding the full Aeon install within the installer image, potentially reducing the download size by 50 percent. If this approach is not feasible in the short term, it may be revisited post-release.

Full Disk Encryption is set up in one of two modes: Default or Fallback. Get more info about that in the Aeon Desktop Introduces Comprehensive Full Disk Encryption article.

"We worked very closely with Capcom, and our relationship definitely grew in the process"

Full Disk Encryption is planned to be introduced in the forthcoming release candidate of the Aeon Desktop to enhance data security for its users.
The feature is expected to be included in the upcoming Release Candidate 3 (RC3).

Full Disk Encryption is designed to protect data in cases of device loss, theft or unauthorized booting into an alternative operating system.
Depending on the hardware configuration of a system, Aeon's encryption will be set up in one of two modes: Default or Fallback.

Default Mode

The Default Mode is the preferred method of encryption provided the system has the required hardware. This mode utilizes the Trusted Platform Module(TPM) 2.0 chipset with PolicyAuthorizeNV support (TPM 2.0 version 1.38 or newer). In this mode, Aeon Desktop measures several aspects of the system's integrity. These including:

• UEFI Firmware
• Secure Boot state (enabled or disabled)
• Partition Table
• Boot loader and drivers
• Kernel and initrd (including kernel command line parameters)

These measurements are stored in the system's TPM. During startup, the current state is compared with the stored measurements. If these match, the system boots normally. If discrepancies are found, users are prompted to enter a Recovery Key provided during installation. This safeguard ensures that unauthorized changes or tampering attempts are flagged.

Fallback Mode

The Fallback Mode is employed when the necessary hardware for Default Mode is not detected. This mode requires users to enter a passphrase each time the system starts. While it does not check system integrity as comprehensively as Default Mode, Secure Boot is strongly recommended to ensure some level of security, confirming that the bootloader and kernel have not been tampered with.

Contrary to initial concerns, Default Mode is not less secure than Fallback Mode despite not requiring a passphrase at startup. The strong integrity checks in Default Mode protect against attacks that could bypass normal authentication methods. For example, it can detect changes to the kernel command line that could otherwise allow unauthorized access. Furthermore, it safeguards against modifications to initrd thereby preventing potential passphrase capture in Fallback Mode.

Secure Boot, while optional in Default Mode due to the comprehensive integrity checks, is critical in Fallback Mode to maintain system security. Disabling Secure Boot in Fallback Mode increases vulnerability to tampering and attacks aimed at capturing the passphrase.

Aeon's implementation of Full Disk Encryption provides robust security options tailored to the capabilities of users' hardware. By offering both Default and Fallback modes, Aeon ensures that all users can benefit from enhanced data protection.

The inclusion of this feature in RC3 marks a significant step forward in safeguarding user data against potential threats.
Aeon users are encouraged to read and bookmark the Aeon Encryption Guide.

What is openSUSE.Asia Summit?

The openSUSE Project is excited to announce that openSUSE.Asia Summit 2024 will be held in Tokyo, Japan. The openSUSE.Asia Summit is an annual conference for users and contributors of openSUSE and FLOSS enthusiasts. The former summits received major participation from Indonesia, China, Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and India.

Since the first openSUSE.Asia Summit was held in Beijing in 2014, the summits have been great opportunities for the online community to gather in person, know each other, and share knowledge and experiences about openSUSE including applications running on it. However, COVID-19 made it difficult for 3 years. One of our goals of this year’s summit is to provide a place for communication. Please note that we will not accept talks by video call this year.

The summit dates

The summit will be held on Nov. 2 and 3. An excursion for speakers is expected on Nov. 4, which will be announced later.

You might be interested in Open Source Summit Japan and Open Compliance Summit, held by the Linux Foundation near the venue just before our summit.

Cross-Distro Track

We are going to co-host the Cross-Distro Track by the collaboration with Cross Distro Developers Camp (XDDC). XDDC is a wider developer community of FLOSS OS distribution including openSUSE, Debian and Ubuntu and works together to resolve common issues especially related to Japanese. This year, we are considering inviting speakers and participants from other distribution communities, which will undoubtedly contribute to making the event even more exciting. Furthermore, it will be a great chance to let them know how openSUSE and its community are.

Venue

The openSUSE.Asia Summit 2024 is going to be held in SHIFT Inc., located in Azabudai Hills, Minato-ku, Tokyo, Japan. SHIFT Inc. is a company that supports to create sellable products and services and to grow the business of its customers. It offers integrated IT solutions and consulting services, including development, testing, UI/UX, and security, with its outstanding knowledge in software quality assurance.

• SHIFT Inc.

Azabudai Hills is a large-scale urban redevelopment project completed in November 2023. This area, which combines offices, residential units, retail outlets, and cultural facilities, is also a newly prominent tourist attraction. It is, of course, easy to access from Tokyo/Haneda airport and anywhere in the capital area by public transportation.

Tokyo and Japan

Tokyo is the capital of Japan. Its infrastructure and global connectivity will help attendees travel to the summit. There are direct flights from major cities in Asia Pacific as well as Europe and North America to either Tokyo/Haneda or Tokyo/Narita.

Tokyo is also a popular place for sightseeing with its unique culture, food, etc. Especially, characters from video games, anime, and comics, which are now common globally, attract tourists to Japan. In Tokyo, you can easily find character shops and get items related to works you love.

• Tokyo Manga and Anime Guide — japan-guide.com
• Food & Drink in Tokyo ― GO TOKYO

The number of tourists from abroad has recovered last year to the same level as before COVID-19. Due to the currency exchange rate, it will be a great chance to enjoy your trip to Japan while saving your money.

However, if there is any possibility of attending the summit, you should book your hotel right away with a cancelable plan. Some of our recommended hotels start accepting reservations from 5 months ago, which is June 1. Because Nov. 4 is a public holiday in Japan, rooms in budget hotels become sold out soon, or you will need to pay for your hotel at an inappropriately expensive rate, which might not be covered by the Travel Support Program.

Please also check the following web sites for tourism information in Tokyo and Japan:

• GO TOKYO (Tokyo Convention & Visitors Bureau)
• Travel Japan (Japan National Tourism Organization)
• Japan Guide

Call for speakers

We will start to call for speakers in June. Please read another post for the call for speakers on news.opensuse.org, published in a couple of days.

Wrapping Up

The openSUSE.Asia Summit is a great opportunity for the openSUSE community to meet together. The attendees will be able to enjoy their stay in Tokyo during the summit.

We are looking forward to seeing you this November in Tokyo.

Have a lot of fun!
