Cross-Training with dCore distribution
Posted: 12 Jun 2019, 09:11
Porteus isn't the only distro I run, and as a paid enthusiastic supporter of Porteus, one can assume I'm not trying to headhunt devs or users with the following:
Have you ever tried dCore - from the same group that brings you TinyCore?
Sure - Tinycore is small - and can be made much bigger, but often overlooked is dCore, which has slightly different objectives. Mainly, instead of dev/user conributed packages/modules, dCore starts up with Xorg and relies on Debian/Ubuntu repos. Packages are converted into "sce" format. The emphasis isn't bloat, but if you want to go there, you can do so.
Sound kinda familiar? Interested in cross-training your skills? Perhaps give dCore a try. Thing is, dCore (or any of the cores) don't proselytize. Hit this page, and choose X86 or X86_64:
http://www.tinycorelinux.net/ports.html
I think this would be of interest to any Nemesis/Arch community effort testers too.
Again - this is NOT a cheap sneaky way to pull resources away from Porteus et al. But it might serve as some nice cross-training and frankly, I've used skills from both distros and user communities to help the other out. Win - win if you want to spend the time.
