Thanks. I guess, I can open it and copy the stuff from it, installing it like any other Porteus, right? As in: move the kernel and initrd and base modules to where the porteus.cfg finds them, and just add an entry for it, right?

The ISO contains nemesis.cfg and looks for nemesis-XXXX.sgn

You can use the subfolder approach with porteus for neatness. The same should be implemented for nemesis eventually, we are working on it.

Let me know what the problem was please. I included pulseaudio because it mostly works out of the box. My audio also didn't work because the HDMI digital audio card is in card0 while the analog is in card1. I need to reverse the order to get audio. You can edit using pavucontrol by right clicking the volume icon and choosing to edit.

Any chance of getting a 32 bit version of Nemesis for us old guys with dinosaur netbooks? I've tried the neko/sensei conversion, but lack of firmware prevents getting anywhere with pacman.

@roadie:
Brokenman is not there yet. But it will come in due time. However, presently you can run, test and help us troubleshooting nemesis under virtualbox:

Unfortunately, my processor doesn't support virtualization for a 64 bit image.

Thanks, that is appreciated. It might also add some testers to the mix.

On a Dual Pentium D CPU with 2.66GHz, 3,5 GB RAM and sda1 as swap partition of 2 GB, how well would Nemesis in a VM run? Would my main system crash? [My main system is 3.1 XFCe x86-64 Porteus with Palemoon instead of FFx)

It's difficult to say. It would boot, but beyond that I don't know how your resources would be used. You would probably want to add some more stuff to Nemesis so this part is unpredictable. I should know more once I get a full porteus like system ready. No harm in trying it to see though.

@rava:
Nemesis should be lean. Personnally, I have the impression that archlinux is more efficient than porteus. Stifiling is of that advice.
@brokenman:
Stability of arch linux: its rolling distro nature.
Maybe manjaro servers should provide more stability than arch linux servers Your the best to judge. Feel free to ask questions on that thread or if you prefer, just hand me your questions. I will get them thru.

pamac should better than pacaur. It comes a gui frontend and covers AUR based on yaourt. Sorry.
Manjaro is the leading arch linux distibution. I am running manjaro on one of my linuxbox. I will use it more. They have a very warmful attitude towards forum members and they aim at simplicity for the user.
In the light of the discussion on porteus future a 32 bit version for roadie would be a great asset.
