But this text from you makes me worried.
So how do I tell at boot up which one it should make use ofDon't forget wheezy has two kernels inside.
or does it ask at boot and one chose?

Synaptic has. I'll check out the dependencies size.sunburnt wrote:Does Aptitude or Synaptic give a GUI list of apps.?
If one does, then it should be part of your base setup.
No, but has bunch of other stuff like cups and printer drivers for example which I removed.sunburnt wrote: Your base Wheezy doesn`t have xorg?
That should be part of a bigger base setup.
Both kernels are 32 bit. nonpae is for older hardware.sunburnt wrote:nooby; I think PAE is 32 bit cpus ( pre Athlon & P4 ), and non-PAE is 64 bit cpus.

P.S.
I think that now the priorities are shifting to:
- Efficient loading and unloading of programs in the form *.sfs
- Packing newly installed programs in a separate container (zip, sfs, xz, ...)
This is the result of "surgery" in the DIR's / usr / share and / varToni: If your result is 200 Mb iso with LXDE Debian 7.2 it is very good result I think.
Toni: Moving /live inside other folder with different name is what I found as an option to change the top folder name and it works with Grub Legacy. I'm not sure if there is a way to simply rename live folder.
.sunburnt: I got Wheezy working with the save file, shows it mounted.
Did "update" and installed live-build, all okay
Yes, but live-snapshot keeps track of all changes in the system and makes it "cast" as <live-sn-XXX.cpio.gz>, which can be loaded in the next session.sunburnt: Sergey; I assume that live-build only makes a build of the running Deb. version.?

No problem to include BaCon, but for gtkdialog I suggest to think a little bit more. It adds much to the size.sunburnt wrote:# Suggestion: IF Puppy is the model, then GtkDialog should be part of the base setup too.
# Suggestion: Perhaps include BaCon into the base Wheezy, BaCon + Docs is only ~ 1 MB.

If your idea is to have separate sfs files to be loaded and unloaded where we need them, JBV has a solution for FoxyRoxyLinux to keep dpkg database updated and working no mather was is the load sequence of extra sfs files. He calles them Orphan packages in the forum.sunburnt wrote:### Need a simple gui-script to mksquashfs added apps.
But the Save file has other stuff in it ( configs.), so need to separate newly added packages.
Download but don`t install does not help, we need "working & configured" apps to Squash.
Once apps are "installed" and Squashed, then it`s easy to combine and split them.
This is a very good idea to solve the difference in the configuration between wheezy and squeezy. Then the cleaning script might work on both. Need to do some testing.sklimkin wrote:And what happens if you make a link with the name of "live" on the DIR
live.lnk -> /lib/
and so on:
image.lnk -> /lib/live/mount/medium/
cow.lnk -> /lib/live/mount/overlay/
mnt.lnk -> /lib/live/mount/rootfs/
sfs.lnk -> /lib/live/mount/medium/_sfs/
I've never used this option. Need to read more about. Thanks.sklimkin wrote: Yes, but live-snapshot keeps track of all changes in the system and makes it "cast" as <live-sn-XXX.cpio.gz>, which can be loaded in the next session.
This "cast" has rw-attributes and placed in the root directory in which the system itself.
Hi, Terry,sunburnt wrote:A thought... Rox is needed for a "Puppy clone", and it`s the desktop & wallpaper manager.
# So Wheezy profiles for:
"bare Live" Good for building servers and embedded stuff.
"GTK, xorg, etc." A base for desktop systems. No WM, no desktop, etc.
"Puppy base" GtkDialog, Rox, all the stuff that makes Puppy what it is.
And a few others...
GtkDialog + all libs = 17 MB. Most are common libs ( gtk ) needed anyway, so maybe <5 MB.?
# Answered my Q... Synaptic is a gtk gui PM. It should be in all builds except the "bare Live".
.
Way to include it in the second base without window manager? I think it will be still GUI executable by thyping xinit synaptic. Have to check out this first.# Answered my Q... Synaptic is a gtk gui PM. It should be in all builds except the "bare Live".
''anikin wrote:A quick thought - the squeeze based LD seems to be lighter and easier to use. Debian is so flexible - just change a few lines in apt-get configuration and your OS will upgrade itself to Wheezy, Jessie, or SID and can be rolled back to Squeeze, if the changes are not to your liking. The procedure is well documented and easy to follow. Is it worth the trouble, to pursue two projects?
Thanks for your thoughts, Mcewanw,mcewanw wrote:At the moment, it is the squeeze version that interests me. Mainly because much of my hardware is a few years old or more, but also because I want to run in ram and as fast as possible and in tests I have found squeeze-based distributions best for these needs.
