Update about 1GB took about 10.
2. Debian Gnome
About 12 minutes to install.
1290 files in total.
7GB for the full system.
New Kernel.
Did not try updates.
It would do it own accord.
3. MANJARO took 7 minutes.
Update only 886MB.
Taking about 10 mintes.
Basic utilities consuned nearly 10GB with 3.4GB remaining for applications. Enough for Blende.
In other words just over half an hour I have 3 solid distributions installed without any hastle.
I am restarting Manjaro after UPDATES.
I gave it only 12GB.
Well, I will add AbiWord, Audacity, GIMP and VLC.
It took 10.3GB about 3GB more than Debian.
I have 1.4GB for top ups.
No Blender but it there in BlueStar Linux.
I have 555MB to Spare.
If I have to UPDATE it again it might fail but 12GB was enough to install my needs.
I gave 16.6GB for Debian.
I am going to give 15GB to Debian and give the extras to MANJARO.
In another half an hour I have accomplished what I desired.
I have to use Gparted my favourite tool to repartition. I might be able to add Blender to MANJARO.
Thank you Debian and GNOME.
Alll of them have LibreOffice as default but MANJARO give option for either OpenOffice or Libre.
If LibreOffice is not installed one can save about 1.2GB.
I wouldn't do that.
While ELive takes 3 to 3 1/2 hours install with so msny unnecessary applications which I never use.
I install BlueStar Linux to get everything except Blender in one go but it has the latest kernel but takes little longer to UPDATE.
By the way, Peppermint OS after UPDATES failed to configure GDM and that space I used to install DEBIAN. Since it claims it is minimal distribution based on Debian, I decided to give the minimal space well below my standatd of 25GB. Now I know with Debian GNOME, I can go doen to 15GB. When one dies that it takes longer to install alteady gone beyond 20 minutes.
Unpacking took 22 minutes.
Now configuring the system. Configuring took 8 miutes minutes and Debian GNOME needs half an hour to install.
Only one file UPDATE.
