Nice to read the Squeeze version works well for others.
New iso uploaded and first post information updated.
DebianDog-Squeeze-hybrid-29.08.2015.iso - 157Mb.
The older iso is still available for download
here.
Changes in the new version:
1. Updated yad and some special DD scripts with lates changes from Fred for Wheezy and Jessie.
2. Included
menu-openbox from Fred with localisation support (the default menu displays categories and menu entries only in English). In case you like to change the localisation type menu-openbox in terminal or start it from System -> Menu Openbox.
3. Added
DebianDog-Squeeze repository in sources list as in Wheezy/Jessie. New packages and fixes will be provided with apt-get/synaptic.
4. The included packages upgraded to the latest versions.
5. The iso changed to hybrid as DebianDog-Jessie and MintPup.
6. Added fixes from William in initrd1.xz and some scripts for sd-card install (I can't test sd-card install but it should work).
7. Some upgraded libs from Wheezy changed with Squeeze versions which made possible to remove some dev packages not needed for regular use and the iso size is smaller now. This also fixed the problem mentioned in
this post.
8. Some small and not important configuration changes for Icewm menu setup and other scripts.
9. Added Dillo as alternative web browser for very old computers (dillo is not available in official squeeze repository).
10. Special portable DebDog-Squeeze-installer (without systemd boot menu entries) available for download
here and
how to use instruction.
11. Included
clearRAM script in case you have very old machine (128 - 256Mb RAM).
Run it in terminal from time to time and the system will work faster. For example this is the result running the script after fresh boot without starting any applications (256Mb RAM computer):
Code: Select all
clearRAM
This script will clear cached memory and free up your ram.
At the moment you have 110 MiB cached and 34 MiB free memory.
This freed 128 MiB, so now you have 162 MiB of free RAM.
More tips from William read
here.
I guess this is the last DD-Squeeze iso version. The main reason to update the iso is adding sd-card install support and special repository for installing fixed and updated packages with apt-get (synaptic).
