Hello, world, from the USA

[Member DredNought]

Happy New Year!

New to AntiX. I installed Antix 21 as a VMware client. None of my changes are saved between reboots.

What should I do to save changes (new users, screen resolution, etc)?

Thank you!

I’m not sure of VMware but I use VirtualBox a lot. On VB I load the ISO from the virtual CD and then I run the “Installer” to install antiX onto the virtual machines virtual hard drive. After doing that I can “boot” the installed antiX and when I make a change the changes are saved to the virtual hard drive, just like on my regular hard drive installations.

Are you “installing” or just running “Live”. Also, if you install as “Frugal” you need to set persistence to save stuff.

Hi Seaken64,

It’s good to know that an AntiX VM will work. I intended to do a full install, but suspect that I may have messed up on taking the defaults somewhere.

I will start over and be more careful of the install options.

Thank you, and Happy New Year!

Thank you for the suggestions and hints.
