antiX-bullseye-a2-x64-full available

[Forum Admin anticapitalista]

antiX-bullseye-a2-x64-full is an alpha quality release for experienced testers of antiX to test and provide feedback.
Do not use this as your main OS.

Get it here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/antix-linux/files/Testing/

Some basic differences from a1.

* 4.9.261 and 5.10.22 kernels on the live iso. Please try both in your tests.
* no virtualbox-guest packages

Hopefully many of the bugs found in a1 have been squashed.

Please don’t only focus on aesthetics and/or documentation changes. I will note any such comments and make the changes (eventually).
Usually they are the last things that get fixed.

Please state if you are testing live, frugal, in a virtual machine or on bare metal.

Thanks!

Great.
Is a runit (or s6/66) version is also programmed ?

< antiX-bullseye-a2-x64-full >
Installation, update, wifi all OK
Deadbeef…..doesn’t want to be installed….is listed, but..
QMPlay2…….same
VMPK….installs OK, but when opening the app, it comes up for 1 second and then vanishes into the void !

This is standard install on standard desktop ( Acer )
Note, they all work OK on < antiX 19.3 base >

Have fun

Just one more thing.
When burning <antiX-bullseye-a2-x64-full> to USB, it tells me it’s runit !
Slightly confused here

Have Fun .

The same as Jing-Jo has experienced, the boot menu (UEFI-grub) displays -runit-, but is in fact sysvinit as previously stated, so it is only an erroneous message in BOOT.

Is no-one else going to comment the amazing feat of ONE antiX ISO with TWO different kernels! I was really surprised after trying it out and reaaaaaly surprised after seeing how well each worked!
I haven’t had much time these weeks for anything, as some personal problems have popped up. No detailed feedback for the new build yet, but so far it is working fine.

My congratulations on finally getting connman to correctly start (for the first time on my laptop) with wifi enabled, all ready to start working. I think this will finally end with most of the “wifi problems” related posts in the future.

I will try to provide detailed feedback when I have time again. Sorry for this empty post.

Is there a plan to release a sysvinit-to-runit service conversion manual/instructions so we can create the correct service init files for services not originally contemplated in antiX-runit edition? Is there a plan to make runit the “main” init in the future (seeing the related information post)? Do I need to update the antix-wifi-switch so it properly work for runit (I haven’t tested it yet on antiX21-runit-a2)?

I’ve been testing v21a1 in VirtualBox. Do you want me to re-install with a2 or do I just run a full-upgrade?

reinstall – a1 is dead (a2 will also be dead when the next alpha/beta comes out)

Having this possibility available will be fantastic, the user will be able to select which kernel he wants to start with antiX.

Something similar would be possible in the 32-bit full ISO with the 4.4.240 kernel used by Xecure in the ISO “antiX-19-legacy-bet2_386-base.iso”, in this way, I believe, it would increase compatibility with old computers.

Thank you very much for antiX.

Ter disponível esta possibilidade será fantástico, o usuário poderá selecionar qual kernel deseja iniciar com o antiX.

Seria possível algo semelhante na ISO de 32 bits full com o kernel 4.4.240 utilizado pelo Xecure na ISO “antiX-19-legacy-bet2_386-base.iso”, desta forma, acredito eu, aumentaria a compatibilidade com computadores antigos.

Muito obrigado pelo antiX.

1. At some point, we’ll try to provide a sysvinit-to-runit service conversion instructions for services not included on the iso.
2. Not in the immediate future.
3. Not sure TBH. I don’t think so.
