| hacksenwerk | Daedalus Minimal-Live is 798mb big, that's more than a cdrom has of capacity... :( | 13:02 |
|---|---|---|
| hacksenwerk | dvds ar emore expensive, the cheap ones too. I have cheap dvds here and my laptop can not read them so can't use it for wodim to burn the image to a dvd. Sucks. | 13:06 |
| fsmithred | thanks for the advice, hacksenwerk. Too bad you didn't stay around to tell me what to leave out of that iso to make it smaller. | 14:40 |
| djph | fsmithred: the DE ^_^ | 14:41 |
| fsmithred | djph, the minimal-live doesn't have a DE | 15:20 |
| djph | fsmithred: oh. well, I'm all out of ideas then | 16:00 |
| fsmithred | I'm running a build now, without the games | 16:03 |
| fsmithred | I'm not too optimistic about that. I think it's probably the firmware packages that grew. | 16:04 |
| fsmithred | It went from 780MB to 766MB | 16:05 |
| fsmithred | Refracta no-X iso is 680MB. https://get.refracta.org/files/daedalus/refracta_12.0_nox_amd64-20230829_1853.iso | 16:09 |
| djph | nice | 17:36 |
| gnu_srs | FYI: I'm now happily running Devuan/Daedalus GNU/Linux on my main boxes. soon there will be a Hurd port to Devuan too :) | 19:01 |
| rwp | fsmithred, I operate a lot of old (most might say ancient) boxes and I don't have any that can't boot from a USB these days. I haven't burned a cdrom image to boot in ages. | 19:14 |
| fsmithred | me neither, rwp | 19:15 |
| rwp | It seems hard to believe that requiring to fit onto a 700MB cdrom is a showstopper these days. Though fighting bloat is always good. | 19:16 |
| fsmithred | I make another build and left out the firware packages. 674M | 19:16 |
| fsmithred | firmware is still installed, but the deb packages aren't in this iso. | 19:17 |
| fsmithred | so if you run the script to uninstall the firmware, and you need the firmware to get online, you're stuck. | 19:17 |
| fsmithred | I'm not gonna publish this iso | 19:18 |
| rwp | Life continues to be a compromise. That's life! | 19:21 |
| onefang | I blew the dust off my DVD writer and Blu-Ray reader last night. Haven't plugged them in, just put them near the computer. Not likely to need them, but it's a better place to store them. | 20:14 |
| golinux | onefang: And your support issue is . . . ? | 20:54 |
