TinyCore Editor (suite)

[Roberto A. Foglietta]

Hi all,

 Compared to the previous version:

 TinyCore Editor (suite) version 0.5.0 is able to deliver a 32 bit TinyCore Linux in an ISO/USB image.
 That image is able to compile natively source code for 32 bit x86 platform, so the 32 support is full.

 https://github.com/robang74/tinycore-editor/archive/refs/tags/v0.5.0.tar.gz

 It reduces the boot time to 5 seconds on a 2 CPUs virtual machine which is very handful achievement.
 This achievement is for "sshonly usbdisk develop devtools" 90MB ISO/USB image using meta packages.
 Read the README at the bottom in order to know how to leverage the mata packages.

 In future versions, I will work on enhance the compatibility with original TinyCore Linux especially the use of tce/cde folders instead of using the tcz folder like now. I have a plan to do it but I need time for delivering it.

 If you like to join the project or submit your feedback, feel free to use the discussion forum or the mailing-list

 I hope you will enjoy it, -R

Roberto, may I share a joke, to do not be a monolog?
#joke: a poor man walking, but he needs a bicycle (more comfort) [1]. So, he will borrow some resources [2] to build a factory [3] which will produce many (motor)bicycles, but he only needs one bicycle for him.

Legend:
[1] = novice/lethargic Linux user, wanting a custom Tiny core.
[2] = time spent to understand your scripts (not blindly run them); plus compile some programs, knowledge about git, etc.
[3] = need for a full OS (Ubuntu?) + tools, a new shell (bash, not ash), etc.

PS: for me, it is like the “Mexican Fisherman and the Investment Banker” parable. YMMV.

Desktop users: you are right, it is too complex.
Embedded Developing/Integration: it is useful.
Container Developing/Deployment: it is useful.

Well, it is a Forum, not a Blog. There are much more suitable possibilities for blogging
