I had forgotten that I have qemu installed. I need to check the syntax for memory allocation but this iso starts (slitaz) FreeBSD starts effortless and goes all the way to live even Omnios also but I need to allocate more ram for that than the default small ammount.

I will play with qemu later today

I was having problems with rxvt-unicode in #NetBSD (I think they don't have its terminfo definitions by default) and xterm was pretty ugly to work with.

So I instead went with another old terminal I haven't used in quite literally a decade: Sakura. It's the terminal emulator used by the #SliTaz project, another ultra-minimalist lightweight Linux distro project. To my surprise: everything works very well, it's still pretty lightweight and also very modern!

I guess some bad things come for good reasons!

I was looking for a minimal distro to run on a usb stick, and decided to give TinyCore a shot. I used the Core 16MB ISO, and I followed the manual installation in the wiki.

I was having a good time, but I realized that tcz extensions from the AppBrowser are way too old. Inkscape is stuck at version 1.0 (2020).

Also tried SliTaz which looks like having the latest pkgs, but in the case of Inkscape, it is still stuck at 0.92.

What would you recommend?

#tinycore #slitaz #linux #usb

@tecnotestering Creo que ya alguno lo dijo: usando #GNU+#Linux.
Francamente, al estado actual de las #distros libres, usar Windows sin que te obliguen por la fuerza es masoquismo del más espeluznante.

A la mierda!
Impresionante su bajo consumo de #slitaz #linux

I just tried to search for #Slitaz but found nothing.

Does that mean no one is using it?

I'm curious :)

#Linux

And yes, for those waiting, I plan on doing the #inxi #TinyCore release concurrently because there are a lot of tiny linux fixes in 3.3.32, including supporting at least to some degree all the known #TinyX servers, and fixing some always broken system init detections for #busybox based systems. And #Slitaz support! that's another groovy tiny linux distro. And #Alpine support enhanced. Those are all cool projects that to me are one of the best things about the #gnu/#linux ecosystem.

@adamw @mjgardner @Perl I can see you simply can't grasp this point at all. I suggest you stop wasting your time, really. Yes, you are right, rh have been breaking this stuff a long time, and yes, on older systems you may have to explicitly install perl modules since those were removed from perl, but that's totally irrelevant. I have to install @Perl on tinycore too, which is fine, and also on other small tiny distros like #Alpine and I think #slitaz. Those are 15-50 MiB install isos.
