# windvn Devuan Linux for Windows users # TO-DO - More complex setup # How to "build" ## Prerequisites - You need to use Devuan or windvn - `apt install debootstrap grub-common grub-pc-bin grub-efi-ia32-bin grub-efi-amd64-bin mtools squashfs-tools xorriso` --- 1. **Get into the windvn environment:** ``` windvn$ sudo bash windvn# source shell windvn-i386_chimaera_2022.08.10-18.38.01:windvn> ``` 2. **Make chroot:** ``` # By default, windvn builds in 32-bit. If you want 64-bit, run: # source wdvn-env-amd64 wdvn-make output base hardware hardware-proprietary graphical graphical-xfce4 live finish ``` You can get rid of the following components, if you don't wish for them: - *Proprietary hardware support:* hardware-proprietary - *Boot support (chroot only):* hardware, hardware-proprietary, live - *ISO support:* live - *Graphical desktop:* graphical, graphical-xfce4 If you want to use a system with less than 256MB of RAM (minimum 128MB), add legacy after finish. This will make the ISO unbootable on most media but for CD/DVD. 3. **Make ISO:** ``` wdvn-image-iso output myimage.iso ``` You can now put that ISO on a DVD (CD if you configured it small enough) or USB. # Notice This project is not affiliated with Devuan.
