Re: Alpha Testing
Hmmm, annoying.
how about verbatim?
sudo dpkg-reconfigure tzdata console-setup keymap whatever ?
even thinking about users using it surely they can't really fail to understand the choices dpkg gives?
What were you thinking about writing up with SSH?
that, for me, would be 'ins ssh' after and upd/upg. Ubuntu* doesn't seem to come with SSH these days.

Re: Alpha Testing
You're right about the multiple READMEs though, no-one reads docs, not a lot of them anyway.
One line in the existing README would be fine, I reckon.

Re: Alpha Testing
^ the thing about SSH?
Probably linking to debian's wiki is enough. :D

Re: Alpha Testing
^ if you know that you need to install SSH - I'd suggest that you'd know how to, and what to do after.
I'm agreeing we don't need another doc page, if we have to have a 'how to setup' line, I would think that 'dpkg-reconfigure zdata that and the other' is plenty, certainly not odd to anyone who's done a net/cli install.
that's my two pence...
tuppence none the richer.

Re: Alpha Testing
Absolutely. People who opt for a noX installation of LinuxBBQ should actually know what they are doing, and if not: we have a support forums :)

Re: Alpha Testing
super minor tiny note; booted with USB in, didn't want to boot from anorexia, wanted HHD - tried 'boot from Hard Disk' on the syslinux boot and it didn't.
Not an issue, pulled the stick out and rebooted anyway.
feel free to ignore.

Re: Alpha Testing
Exactly. I see no problem in configuring the right time/clock manually. You come to a BBQ, expect to put shit on the grill by yourself. Really, we have no time to cook everything for others. Salt, pepper, beer and other spices are all available on the Debian menu. Put what you want and enjoy the roast.wuxmedia wrote:...certainly not odd to anyone who's done a net/cli install.
Re: Alpha Testing
Runs well here. No issues to report.
Re: Alpha Testing
Tested in Virtualbox. All good.

Re: Alpha Testing
thanks for the reports.
23 of 23 minor bugs were fixed in the last two revisions. The first Alpha was released 7 months after the last final release. No new bugs have been reported since Alpha 2.
I will start working on Adipositas (the full console desktop) in the next days. As Anorexia and Adipositas share the same base only critical bugs (core and base system, live-config) will be fixed in parallel. The expected Beta releases is scheduled for July 23rd, the final releases of Anorexia and Adipositas follow on August 1st, 2016.
For those who want to create their own remaster, I recommend LinuxBBQ Swikee as base. It has proven to work well even on older hardware. I also recommend keeping the 'user' for live ISOs.
If you find bugs or problems with Anorexia, please post them here or on our tracker: https://waffle.io/linuxbbq/anorexia2016_issues
Thank you again for testing and squashing, and see you on the lean side!

Re: NOX: Anorexia Alpha 2 (586)
Woo! I've been AWOL for way too long. (I'm doing college classes through the summer, as well as working, so I've barely gotten to spend any quality time with my ThinkPad.) Nice base, though, MB! Thanks :D

Re: NOX: Anorexia Alpha 2 (586)
Just a FYI :)
I'm late 3 weeks, sorry for that, though there was no need to push a new (Beta) version because there were no changes.
Now that there's kernel 4.6 we can try to ship it with the Beta. I'll be a bit busy until mid September, so those who want a new kernel on a remaster just use the get-kernel script, reboot, remove the old kernel with kernel-remover and bbqsnapshot their installation. Else: wait patiently ;)
