Current Refracta status

Postby golinux » Mon Jul 20, 2015 9:30 pm

Want to make sure you saw this post from Jaromil. I Just got it today though it was posted several days ago. Sounds like he's counting on Refracta to put together the Devuan live iso. I haven't been keeping up with the direction Refracta has been going so a summary would be appreciated.
May the FORK be with you!

Not a lot to report, 'cause I haven't been doing anything with it. Next task is to finish refracta2usb and roll it into a deb, then make a couple of changes in refractasnapshot. Then I'll go back to playing with devuan.

When I last installed devuan, it was from the alpha2 installer, and it was still pulling in some systemd stuff with the desktop. At this point, I don't know what packages still need to have their deps changed and don't know what can be installed without pulling in systemd. I'd like there to be a refracta that has all (or most) of the packages in previous versions without relying on additional repositories and without any systemd packages. Turning an installed system into a live iso is the easy part and only takes about an hour.

If you want something specific, give me some specs. For instance, if you want a live iso made from an alpha2 installation, I could (or maybe already did) whip one up. Do you know how close they are to the beta release?

You need to talk to Jaromil. That's why I linked to that post. I'm still not doing much computer stuff because of my back. Have not installed the alpha. Heck. I haven't installed a system in maybe a year. Hope I can remember how!
