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
- Get into the windvn environment:
windvn$ sudo bash
windvn# source shell
windvn-i386_chimaera_2022.08.10-18.38.01:windvn>
- 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.
- 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.
