Hehe, design by committee |

I say, whoever has the time to put together a new image - do it in whatever way you please. |

gentoo! ;/D |

If i had a list of required bits and peices, I could likely build one |
|

SmileyG |
but right now I'm attemping to fix crosscompiling for my pi. |

infact, if we oculd get all the scripts on the github, and then we could have an initalisation script too.... we could have images which are independant of the scripts. |
|

🔗
|
ersi |
all the scripts are on github |
|
10:01
🔗
|
ersi |
they've always been |

SmileyG |
ok cool |
|

SmileyG |
I've never looked tbh ersi |
|

|
SmileyG |
So if I built a gentoo image, we'd use it (if it worked)? |
|
10:14
🔗
|
SmileyG |
could likely get it smaller than most distros too, as can strip out all the unneeded stuff. |
|

It would be nice to optimise for values such as, many people know the environment and not having to roll too much own stuff. Like, you know, a new spin of Debian. |
|

|
ersi |
That said, feel free to do an image based on whatever you like |

DOS, then. run in dosbox instead of virtualbox - much smaller! |

Yeah, thanks for continuing. |

at least windows doesn't have this bash vulnerability ;) |

if someone is going to build an updated vm, remember to include python 3 |

SmileyG: don't use Gentoo, you'll break a lot of grabs |
|
20:36
🔗
|
SmileyG |
yipdw: why? |
|
20:37
🔗
|
yipdw |
there is an assumption amongst current grabs (and probably future) that apt-get is present |
|
20:37
🔗
|
yipdw |
especially for grabs with warrior-install.sh |
|
20:37
🔗
|
yipdw |
just stick with the Debian line |
|
20:37
🔗
|
SmileyG |
right ok |
|
20:37
🔗
|
SmileyG |
that idea out the window then :D |
|
20:37
🔗
|
SmileyG |
ok maybe I'll try debian. |
|
20:37
🔗
|
yipdw |
change for no reason is such a pain in the ass to deal with |
|
20:37
🔗
|
SmileyG |
The reason for the change is valid |
|
20:37
🔗
|
yipdw |
Debian works fine |
|
20:37
🔗
|
SmileyG |
the target of the change is currently variable (hense why I asked) |
|
20:37
🔗
|
SmileyG |
Then we'll go debian. |
|

|
aaaaaaaaa |
doesn't ubuntu have automatic updates and also support apt-get? Plus it has a LTS. |
|
20:41
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
of course, it may install with more crap |
|
20:41
🔗
|
yipdw |
it does |
|
20:41
🔗
|
yipdw |
my rationale for Debian is that the warrior is currently based on Debian 6 |
|
20:41
🔗
|
yipdw |
why change more than necessary |
|
20:42
🔗
|
yipdw |
I mean if the Debian project decides to just throw in the towel one day, sure, time to jump ship |
|
20:45
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
debian 6 lts has support until February 2016 |
|
21:15
🔗
|
midas |
debian has automatic updating if you want to |
|
21:16
🔗
|
aaaaaaaaa |
oh, ok. I only know ubuntu does because it is one of the features they mention. Of course, a cron job or at job could do the same thing, now that you mention it. |
