Microsoft wants to have all Windows 7/8 users updated to 10 by the end of this year which is why they are getting so aggressive and forcing it on people. Apparently you now have to be careful across the entire Microsoft website of what boxes you tick and what you agree to as some have reported getti...

Well that was a complete waste of time as it turns out the Arch Alpha (nemesis) is on hold and they don't know if the Arch version will be resumed any longer. Apparently the developer is about to release new version of Slackware Porteus and is going to concentrate his time on that instead due work c...

The default output location is /tmp; which will work as long as you have enough memory to keep the output there. OK , that makes sense , I mistook your post as meaning there had to be a external linux drive or partition for the clone image. You sound like someone I knew from the past. I doubt it ve...

Targetting remaster into a FAT32 or NTFS filesystem *will not work*. How is a first time Linux user supposed remaster fatdog without changing their Windows setup or hardrive? Apart from it being technically difficult coming from a point and click environment people testing on brand new pristine mac...

What was your opinion on Tiny Core Pure 64 and will you be using it again ?
Still have it installed.

For a stripped down,very fast system it's got a lot of potential.Think I'll experiment with it for a while.

I started integrating the automatic update.
To be continued ...
