The last 3 pages summarized. There are much more details, easier accessible now at the place in this thread by clicking on the member name of a quote. Allowing for not having to read this long-winding thread with many off-topic comments as a whole again. It also seems the more this thread is...

Another 4 pages of summary. page 12: Audio page 13: Mageia live persistence WLAN page 14: Install LXLE in Cranchbangplusplus Correct path in limine.cfg with EasyOs Checking formatting of an USB: page 16 How to set root with installer

So many jewels in this thread for beginners with linux, for finding one that works with new hardware, I wanted to summarize, 4 pages at first: page 8: WLAN page 9: installing/deinstalling in Q4OS page 10: Cernel in use page 11: Ram usage Partitioning Audio Passwords

Thanks, meanwhile tried to install antix as VM, sadly every froze at 34% of copying files, and much too long, could only power off. There wasn't a volume icon. Tried the sound card chooser under hardware options, but no sound card available. Try further tomorrow.

In antiX this command gives no reply, only returns: demo@antixl: ~ $ Just as when it opens.

My experience of Mageia live - where everything works, then installed and updated it didn't - showed me, there are unpredictable outcomes from too many unknowns possible. Proceeding from live to install. And it may too be from VM to drive. Call it magical thinking, but in this case the opposite...

Did quickly check the VMs of antix, bodhi, fatdog, lite, lxle, wattos and Robo with the 'virtio' setting under the HDA-interface. The latest does start up with this change now too. Only antiX terminates its boot-up with this screen, and therefore doesn't work as a VM for me: Though, the same...

I appreciate. Looking forward to testing VMs myself again, at the moment my time is too little for.

I did set up 7 VMs of the lighter Linuxes from my live results. Just no time these days to go ahead with further thorough testing. Thanks for informing me of a better way than 'ide', since now I made all of them identical, the way you have shown me before. Will change to 'virtio' again. I...

Yes, ventoy does install on the USB, but not in the operating system.

Don't know. On windows no install is necessary, it runs simply by being copied and pasted, or rather downloaded from portable apps, and started without installation.

I know Ventoy only as portableapp for windows. It works for most ISOs without fail. And after it took over a USB stick, so easy to try new distros by just copy/paste their ISOs there. So maybe someone you know does still have a running Windows? Just copy portable Ventoy there and prepare the...

An other question about the Limine bootloader, which didn't get any attention since 5 days on the puppy easyos forum, I wanted to ask here too: Because one thing is clear now: If one has to try so many hours to just find 1 Linux working with one's hardware, in hours salary I already could...

. Though I'm really happy I've got now in EasyOS a first installed and working Linux for regular use. And for being able to take first steps to get acquainted with Aqemu.. That much higher RAM use installed - only 300/700Mb /w. chromium during the live trial - does suggest one of the other...

You are right. Tried an installation with Aqemu on my only installed EasyOS last night after my question here. Where it did install, but which completed with the only graphical interface as before installation. With the option to enter command-line mode there too. Thanks for mentioning to you...

Good to know in the future. Though because I thought I just as well could create a new VM, tried this time a Proxmox VM installation, with amble space from the beginning. Failed, since it seems really a command-line installation. So in my case the installation completed in the VM after about...

I tried Proxmox from a Ventoy USB only, seems to be for installation only. Not for testing in live mode. So do I understand you right? - in that an installed Porxmox doesn't have any apps installed than necessary for virtualization? But those are complete? Which of the options does it ship...

Note, I've got a 11.6 inch display only. Letters are almost too small to read in the VM, so individual numbers might be misread. Model: ATA QEMU HARDDISK (scsi) Disk /dev/sda: 7368MB Sector size (logical/physical): 2048B/512B Partition Table: mac Disk Flags: Number Start End Size...

Not installed in EasyOS, it seems. Ok, then manually. Swap has 0 for total, used and free. total is 4201, used 264, free 2286, shared 177, buff/cache 1651 and available 3513. lsbik -f shows: NAME FSTYPE LABEL UUID FSAVAIL FSUSE% MOUNTPOINT fd0 loop0 squashfs sda iso9660 LXLE...

Don't feel obliged to reply to my question to a GUI you're not really comfortable with. It seems to me, experienced Linux users just aren't. Though not really mine, I do understand the differing perspective. At least a search of Aqemu does suggest...
