A Linux distribution aimed at being as tiny as possible
To build an image of Quecto, all you need is a Nix setup with flakes support on which to run the following:
nix build git+https://codeberg.org/xerz/quecto#quecto
Yep, that's it. You can then proceed to test the finalized image with e.g.:
qemu-system-i386 -accel kvm -m 2G -cdrom result/iso/nixos.iso
- Live ISO for read-only and read-write media
- Supports i686 systems, either BIOS or UEFI
- Old school desktop environment
- CDE is currently the window manager of choice
- Features a web browser and a terminal emulator
- Firefox is the end goal, currently testing with Netsurf
- Might end up adding something else, a drawing app or something
- Optimized as much as reasonable
- Targeting Pentium III for minimum system requirements
- Should be able to fit within a 140MB MD Data
