      As much time elapsed since discussion preceding this post (about two and half years):
      – First: Congrats on your success.

      Thank you!

      – Could you explain how you ended up booting your Frugal antiX: Are you booting from a Grub entry, from a USB antiX stick, specifying a boot partition (antiX boot parameters) or some other way?

      Good question. I’m booting from the original USB antiX stick. I don’t have Grub installed. So far, it’s no great inconvenience. Barring the loading of rootfs into RAM (e.g. “Loading 414 MB into RAM ……”), the boot is quite fast.

      That is, I don’t technically “dual boot”, though it may turn out to be a good idea.

      Also, specifying antiX boot parameters looks intriguing; I didn’t realize that was an option.

        Thanks for the followup; I did learn some things. Yours is also the first inxi I’ve seen here using emacs as the shell. (8-)
