Miles? Not likely. Try light-years big_smile

@dhlagren, I think its almost mandatory to test it out isn't it?

@S11, that's a more accurate description.

Dobbie03 · 2017-09-21 06:30:39

Very happy with the response this week

Nili · 2017-09-21 07:06:41

Good News Matt! Hard work finally rewarded smile

Sector11 · 2017-09-21 15:39:50

Keep it rolling, Matt, keep it rolling....

I've seen nothing but glowing opinions of it. Excellent distro.

Sector11 · 2017-09-22 00:00:35

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh they used the all new "glow-in-the-dark" code. lol

Dobbie03 · 2017-09-22 04:07:22

@Nili, thanks my friend.

@S11, like a rolling stone. LOL, can you direct me to the this glow-in-the-dark code please smile

@obscurant, thanks for that. We have seem some pretty toxic reactions out there but it has mostly been positive.

I'll bet it's mostly diehard Arch users who don't like to have their i3 preconfigured.

You could be right smile

One of our members made the mistake of posting a question at the ArchForum......

Thanks to Dobbie & Co for taking ArchLabs the "Minimo" route. Great to see it tuned in to a more #! thing, like the original BunsenLabs.

A real delight to get aquainted with, and the best reason so far to get me to try something Arch based. smile

Thanks Dolly. This was our original vision which got a little distorted along the way. Nevertheless we are back on track.

Keep an eye out, an ISO refresh is on its way.

Sector11 · 2017-10-14 22:06:00

My real eye or my glass eye? Now that I can really pull out ... hahahahahaha

no i don't have a glass eye, a bag of marbles someplace but no glass eye.

Walked right into that one didn't I? lol lol

Dobbie03 · 2017-10-14 23:41:13

LOL! I'd prefer your real eye, not that "other" eye.

Hi Dobbie,

I have downloaded the ISO and would like to give it a try. Before I install, I have one question:

I will be installing on a clean external HDD (1TB WD Elements, UEFI- GPT partition table formatted). Is there any specific installation guide I can refer to? Does the minimo ISO support UEFI-GPT installation? smile

dolly · 2017-10-15 17:50:57

^^Yay! big_smile

Hi Eon,

There is no install guide, Calamares is simple enough to not need one. You can specify your partition and format in Calamares.

Moved up the ladder to 40th place at Distrowatch.

Currently at 27th for the month (BL is at 123). Amazing for an Openbox-based desktop. Your installer must be first rate.

Maybe they like more than just our installer smile LOL

In all seriousness though, the reception to AL has blown us all away. Its bloody great to see.

Eon · 2017-10-17 09:40:57

Hi Dobbie,

So I am trying to install AL with Calamares as you suggested, and while I am trying to install it on my external HDD (/dev/sdb) and I have made the required partitions, but why it tries to write EFI partition to (/dev/sda) lol?
It should write EFI partition to my external HDD right?

Edit: /dev/sda is where my Windows 10 is installed. So I thought before I install, I'd better ask the guru here, because I would not want to risk borking my Windows 10 setup. Peace.
