Emmabantus 4

Emmabantus 4, based on Debian 11 is fantastic with lot of applications including my favourites AbiWord and Multisystem application.

Multisystem is an application one can use to mount several Linux operating systems in a USB stick for display.

One cannot save files but one can make lot of bootable USB sticks in one go, provided one has the isos already downloaded.

Coming back to AbiWord my favorite for writing books ran smoothly on Emmabantus.

I installed it on a Seagate external disk and there was no EEFI problems that Microsoft creates.
.
It's GRUB file detected all my installations in my  SSD disk and the other IDE disk.

Debian does not support AbiWord and LibreOffice's default formating options have become a pain for my book writing.

I am Debian man and for all  my routine work I use Debian.

Additionally I use Endless OS in my laptop.

I could not easily find the torrent file of Emmabantus but through www.distriwatch.com, I accessed it and there were enough, torrent peers.

I could not make a bootable USB but I have the iso mounted on a USB and no need for making a bootable DVD.

By the way, DVDs are hard to find in Ceylon.

Thank you very much to Debian and Emmabantus developers.
Your work is excellent.
