Hi Israel and all toriosadores,

I made it - managed to make ToriOS off the Ubuntu mini.iso via the tarball

precise-mini-txt.tar.xz

See the attached files. Probably some of my tweaks and installed
packages are not necessary, but it works :-)

One crucial point is that skel should be copied after installing
'everything' related to ToriOS

PPAPPS=(numix-gtk-theme numix-icon-theme numix-icon-theme-circle
torios-core torios-desktop torios-doc numix-gtk-theme numix-icon-theme
numix-icon-theme-circle mkusb jwm-settings-manager jwm)
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:mkusb/ppa &&
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:numix &&
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:torios-dev/torios-core &&
sudo apt-get update &&
sudo apt-get install --yes ${PPAPPS[@]}

sudo cp -f /etc/skel/.* $HOME
sudo cp -f /etc/skel/.config/* $HOME/.config
________________________________________________________

After preparing this, I also installed nm-applet, (only 3.23 MB extra
disk space), and I can see wireless access-points like in Lubuntu. It
will also use some RAM. I'll check how much increase after a reboot:
________________________________________________________

Deactivate slim (otherwise nm-applet won't work, I think it will be
disturbed by the network setup in ToriOS).

login: tester
password: 123456

startx

Start via fluxbox - without slim - then switch to jwm (alias ToriOS)

nm-applet (works also in ToriOS)

RAM increases from 70 MB to 76 MB in ToriOS. nm-applet is only
necessary, when wireless network is to be set up and used. Wired network
starts automatically.
________________________________________________________

Happy New Year
Nio

ps/ Israel, do you want this installed system as a tarball? /ds
