Revisiting Cachy OS and Game OS

I got it running but I won't recommended it to a newbie. Lot of work including updating but I love the Octapi installer.

KDE desktop of Cachy OS is beautiful.

My recommendation is Manjaro and I got my GRUB back with the help of Manjaro. I added Cinnamon Desktop to Manjaro and reminds me of the old time. It is the desktop Linux Mint uses.

Now that I got Cachy OS installed instead of BlueStar Linux there will be no more testing of Linux.

CatchyOS has a handhel image for gamers.It uses ZFS filr system and that means single system boot up. One can use it like Baticera but one has a KDE Desktop and may be a good replacement for Steam of Valve.

Thank YOU and I am not into Linux Games now.

It is a bit of a MESS from patitioning to selecting desktops to installation.

I am trying for the third time.

It cannot coexist with other operating systems.

I cannot understand why it is on top of www.distrowatch.com.

It should come down below Manjaro, BlueStsr and Endeavor.

That may be the reason I didvnot try it for ages. 

This is my last try.

10 commits out of 47 for 5 partitions and I used only Gnome.

It seems OK, now.

About 1000MB for download and 2700MB when expanded which fits in with the 3GB image.

It looks it is strick and finicky unlike Manjaro. It is on live mode and updates files while installing.

I made sure to press Yes or Y button of the keyboard.

1124MB download.

3857 when installed which is about 1000MB of updates.

I think it not bare bone but with applications inclufing VLC.

Firefox

Flatpak included.

No Libre Office.

It is finishing now.

I hope my GRUB is intact. It spoiled it.

Everything application installed after the installation is in the /var partition.With Vivaldi and Brave it filled up my /var partition of 6GB.

I had to install VLC clent but all the firmats were preinstalled. Thank You.

Next time I am going to reduce the /root to 15GB and allocate the 5GB to the /var partition.

I got Plasma and Cutefish dedktops but Blender with 2GB is out.

Took 10GB space and takes 1.6GB of the 8GB RAM which is 0.2GB higher than Debian Gnome.

No Opera but Brave and Vialdi are there.

Next try Blender. Install size nearly 2GB.

I have not revisited Cachy OS for a long time. I should do that before finishing my book on Linux Essentials.

It is on top of the www.distrowatch.com.

If do not do that it us a disservice to the ARCH Developer Community.

I have to erase BlueStar Linux.

My gut feeling is it won't put up and dual boot with Debian and Manjaro with GRUB incompatibility.

It is only 3GB image.

It installs multiple desktos at installation.

It saves time on the long run.

I am going to choose 3 two desktops and one window manager.

It is booted now.
