Any plans for a Porteus 5.0rc based on Slackware's 15rc1 release? Or a Porteus 6.0rc based on it?

Hmm, it would be interesting to hear opinions and thoughts on this...

I don't really have a need for 32-bits support myself, it's just an asset i wish frugal OSes (as the Slax "live" suite) could be valorized over it instead of getting plumetted bit by bit until nothing remains of it legacy-hardware friendliness. I'll go check the link provided above and hope to find what i wish for right here. If it's kept as modular as it used to be i'll argue newbiew would have an easier task deleting extra stuff than put it back in, with mitigated results that start varying with the passage of months if not years, etc. Windows 10 is still available as a 32-64 bits (dual-menu) .ISO after all...


P.S.: Not a great start so far... https://mirror.its.dal.ca/slackware/sla ... vd.iso.txt

E.G. 'bootia32.efi' is missing... :coffee:
