Emmabantus Installing with Calamara Installer

Emmabantus Installing with Calamara Installer

Yes, Emmantus should be installed by Calamara Installer. If one use the old Debian Installer, it would fail to recognize the already installed other  Linux distributions.

I have found it with "Trial and Error ".

I am resistant to changes and if the developers have that decision, they I believe have a reason (standardization), I would fall in line with them.

Emmantus 5, consistently ignore other  Linux distributions installed in the same hard disk.

This may not be TRUE with Microsoft, I believe.

That means it is subservient to Windows.

It is not a Smart Linux distribution.

There going to be a little holiday for me in Ceylon.

I am going to pack my second hand 500GB SATA hard disk to external enclosure today.

That's It!

Thank YOU very much to guys and girls of the Debian Developer Community.

 

 

MX Linux Install

MX Linux Install is bit of a pain even for guy who is using Linux for donkeys years.

I am surprised it stand first in the ww.distrowatch.com list.

It took ages to configure GRUB and I hope it did not miss any of my installed distributions. 

But it has enormous amount of resoureces including Virtual Machines.

Problem is I have to install them one by one.

It started as a minimalist distribution and it has become fatty.

I like desktop fluxbox.

I am getting ready to identify fifty (50) types in my book. 

Well MX Linux has a Smart Installer.

I had to type AbiWord and it did find it and installed it briskly.

I am going for light weight desktops and it let me select the avaible light weight desktops.

I selected all.

Torrent also I selected all three available including my favorite transmission,

Deluge is  also installed.

Next I am going for virtual machines.

I hope my var partition will have enough space for all.

Yes, MX Linux has done a excellent job.

It will stand as my fourth (4) favorable installation in my NUC.

It took some time locating the Applications I needed but once selected installation goes on occasionally asking for root password (whereas other distributions ask for password for almost every application.

It tells me the image and installation size,too.

I got all my browsers installed including LiBreWeb browser (I am on with LibreBrowser) in one installation whereas before I had to pick each and every one and lot of distributions did not support Vivaldi (96% Open Source).

I have no hesitation in recommending it but one has to have an understanding of how Linux works.

Astra Linux, The Russian Guy

 Astra Linux, The Russian Guy

This is the distribution I have installed in my Laptop, just to irritate the Immigration Guys.

They have to check with the superior guys to know it is Russian Military based distribution BUT a very good distribution, which can be used as a desktop, cellphone or wireless connector.

It is not a spy tool like Kali and Parrot OS.

It is in English, Russian and Portuguese and several European nations.

What I do not like in this distribution is, one cannot use a User Account and always in root mode.

I do not want my operating penis to be rooted always.

It has its own Russian Fly Desktop.

I am downloading it and it has only two peers and it is taking 15 minutes to download and 8 minutes to write to a USB stick.

It is 5.4GB and needs 8GB USB.

Astra Linux does not allow any updates or additional application installation.

I am going to erase and install BlueStar Linux which is Arch based.

I hear Chinese are manufacturing USB stick with SD card soldered to the USB circuits so that they appear bigger than the stated storing capacity.  

Do not buy cheaper USB.

However, it affects the major brands, too.

What they do is introduce one or two adulterated USB sticks to each batch of USBs.

Do not buy in BULK.
