Thats a Router Thing, not recommended for Pc usage

isn't that how Fedora's LiveUSB persistence is done?

isn't that how Fedora's LiveUSB persistence is done?

Guess why i am anything but a Fan of using a Usb stick with Persistence unless absolutely massively unchangeably needed

Instructions unclear, got wrt1900acs instead

that's an expensive beast, I am considering getting one though as it has 128MB flash onboard

Aside that its super super slow

Serves my Home and based on my Recommendation My workplace soon too :3

Yeah, I guess if someone uses a computer from such LiveUSB, then there surely is some important reason

They could install the whole os on the stick instead

needs a slightly speedy stick with wear levelling controller tough

do you have OpenWRT on it? I am considering it for the flash alone, so I would be able to install all of the stuff I would use without USB magic and custom kernels

I was thinking about it, would the partition UUID stay constant?

For Pcs if you want the daily fear of risking all your files you can use lv2 to extend your partitions onto other devices

I dont really mind, just want persistence for accessing my web accounts on the go..

Maybe I could just install Fedora onto my 8 GB USB drive

Even Debian/ Ubuntu doesnt install on it, insufficient storage space

8GB insufficient? did you try to partition it yourself? 8GB should be enough for simple tasks; I would recommend XFCE or LXDE version though

when it comes to Ubuntu, they have this nifty mini.iso, which lets you install just a base system with console and not much else, then you can install a small graphical environment and I would be suprised if it would exceed 1GB

I tried installing Unity and Ubuntu GNOME,

I`d prefer a slightly flashy GUI, atleast XFCE, MATE etc...

maybe you should try starting with Fedora Server and carefully selecting only the packages you need

Havent tried mini, requires fast internet, that I don`t always have...

well, you can't have everything on a limited disk space ;) I'm using XFCE daily, and while it is not flashy at all, it does the job it is supposed to do very well IMHO

How different is a Server build?

Of course

Wait what

Absolutely, I really like it and use it constantly on my main PC, although I would like to flaunt flashier DEs and desktop effects to my co-workers...

Thisnthing has dual Partitions anyway so its 64M.

One for backup if your flash fails

or was it a 256M with 2x 128? need to check at home

Good Afternoon, Fedorians :D I'm setting up, with my dad, a Fedora Server, based on a Intel Core 2 Duo, and 4GB of RAM (DDR3, as far as I remember). Can I run an FTP and Printer server on that Machine? Thanks ^-^

Sure

How different is a Server build?

Never installed it, but I assume that default install lets you select which packages do you want, so you can select only what you need

Absolutely!

Wait what

well, if it would set up partitions UUIDs in fstab, then wouldn't booting such install on another PC be a problem

That is much more than enough for that task.

Oh on a usb stick

Oh nah, UUIDS dont change there

Is there a use case for Desktops?

Atleast it worked fine for me

Thanks for replying, @gwindor and @Wolfshappen ^_^ Today, I'm going to start setting it up, after cleaning it. :D Have a nice day, guys!

Is there a use case for Desktops?

I, personally, would just install the console version and then manually work my way up by installing graphical interface from there

Alpine

Try Alpine Linux for a Usb

In Legacy (not uefi) mode

400mb for xfce setup cant be beaten

(or 39 without xfce common apps)

Alpine

Who was that directed at?

Fedo still has 13gb min requirement or so

Who was that directed at?

Anybody wanting to do a usb install of a linux for portability

400mb for xfce setup cant be beaten

Sounds really interesting...

I am not sure whether @disisdrsid would be comofortable with Alpine's level of Linux console knowledge required to get around

(or 39 without xfce common apps)

Wow.

I think that's right the thing for my EeePC 701.

I am not sure whether @disisdrsid would be comofortable with Alpine's level of Linux console knowledge required to get around

Still I`d like to try

That`s what you guys are for

Still I`d like to try

Gonna be a lot of fun, that's for sure :)

??

That`s what you guys are for

:D

CLI FTW!

Gonna be a lot of fun, that's for sure :)

I`ll get a build today, any particular one I should try?

no idea, I once tried to install Alpine, but didn't finish because of problems (that was this crazy 256MB flash setup on an old HP box)

"Standard" seems nice

OK question to the community:

What icon theme are you currently using?

ERROR: S client not available

I use default one. :D Though, Faenza at laptop.

default Fedora one, I think I have Bluecurve on my home laptop though

Papiros, thinking of switching to Uniform+

I usually don't see any icons, so I don't really care. ;)

What icon theme are you currently using?

I'm using Numix Circle ?

The Mint ones?

Adwaita, iirc.

See, no icons. :)

It was in the `10s what the Arc theme is now...

T-THAT MUSIC VISUALIZER. I love it.

I am not sure whether @disisdrsid would be comofortable with Alpine's level of Linux console knowledge required to get around

Well, it has an installer taking all that away

Just without Clickibunti

"Standard"

_IS_ a network Install tough.

T-THAT MUSIC VISUALIZER. I love it.

Thanks. :)

Just warning you before

A strange version of the docker in the repository, without the driver for btrfs

Whoa? What desktop? Which distro?

Whoa? What desktop? Which distro?

Fedora 25, i3wm.

Numix

I have to probably pull an all nighter, faster internet then...

Welcome to the group!

i3-wm , Just love it ❤️

Same. Can't look at anything else since a dude from Google introduced me to it!

Welcome to the group!

@gwin True that.

Welcome aboard indeed!

I`m bored, so I`m going to ask another question:

What phone do you use?

I use the Nextbit Robin Midnight

I use Nokia something.
