Not all of the dependencies, like libc6, will be needed to include in a premade sce.   Openssl and some others are in the dep file of wpa_supplicant.tcz, so the total size is almost 2mb.  We can trim a premade sce to be much smaller than the 22mb you are seeing.

premade wpasupplicant is very important because (for example) I would not have been able to connect if I had not previously used virtualbox to import wpasupplicant

I get some grey text during boot complaining something about zswap, is that normal?

Sorry,I didn't look very closely the first time. This is the exact words.

Unable to find swap-space signature

I've done some testing.

1. How do I change keymap? I can't make the xorg.conf I use on core work with dcore. I've tried to set the lang and kmap bootcodes and alsp changed LANG in .profile to sv_SE.UTF8.

2. I imported xarchiver and were able to open mydata.tgz with it but was unable to extract.

3. I miss flit and fluff.

Overall, dcore seems very promising.  :)

To use locales, the locales-all package is needed, that should make it work.

I will look at Xarchiver.

We will see about getting flit and fluff.

Thanks!

Imported locales-all and added to sceboot.lst. Checked the spelling with locale -a and updated bootcode and .profile. Running locale everything seems ok, but I still have wrong keymap in both X and prompt.  :(

Thanks Beroje!

Now I have the correct keyboard in X, but it's still wrong when I exit to prompt.

How do I install non-free packages like Flash and Acrobat Reader?

How do I make applications appear in the menu and on wbar?

Some more observations:

1. Only apps loaded at boot appears in the application meny and none (imported) is shown in wbar.

2. Imported libreoffice-gnome is unable to create new documents.

Which desktop or WM does not show menu when loaded on the fly?  I will look into wbar.

I will import and test libreoffice-gnome and see what is going on.

Thanks.
