Re: Important Quick Meeting

 

Hi Ali,
I can't do a meeting right now...
It will be about 3-4 hours before I can...
Paul is probably asleep he is on GMT
it is around 24:00 there...
You may need to just send an e-mail... sorry :(

On the plus side I almost have a working torios-core package!  Hurray!!
I think this may also make adding users very simple....
I added a lot of items to /etc/skel  so as long as useradd works in the
way I think it should the contents of /etc/skel should populate the new
user's $HOME

If this all works, we can ship ToriOS in OEM mode (as Nio has suggested)
so the user can configure it to their locale, timezone and
username/password.
This would GREATLY simplify things for the user and us!

There are a few things I still need to work out but I think I will make
a few packages there, like

torios-core
torios-live

and maybe others.
I'll keep you updated, but if anyone is interested in my first attempt
at this, you can check it on launchpad.
https://code.launchpad.net/~israeldahl/torios/trunk

I do not advise installing the PPA on a non-ToriOS machine... as it will
populate new users with our xinitrc and other things :)
Some of this will eventually go away once things get tightened up and
finished.

Also... I am making progress on the pcmanfm version of the ISO I got it
trimmed down another 40 MB  so it is getting close to CD size again!
