Devuan on nearly all my many computers, I seem to collect them.....

Presently having a look at Void XFCE Live - seems like a good alternative - time will tell.

I have bought a couple of thin clients recently; they have only 16GB disks in them - first I installed Fatdog64 on them, but soon replaced with my regular Devuan Live.

Also checking out derivatives - Crowz & Star - really liking the minimalism of them - might end up using one of them instead of Devuan Live......

No!

I pointed out that all his info stated that it was Debian, & not Devuan - an oversight maybe - but this is the Devuan forum.

Maybe, install xinit/startx (can't remember exact package name), then purge slim - the package manager knows that you have X installed & is trying to be 'helpful' by not breaking it, I expect.

Ah, right, haven't actually run MIYO since that weird green pukey back drop, (not sure how long ago that was).....

Like it!

Even though I don't use it, (never actually heard of it, but might give it a try).

Thanks for posting the solution.

There are several rippers for Linux, some will automatically add the metadata if you are connected to the internet.

Here's one such program - https://www.systutorials.com/docs/linux/man/1-grip/

My computer course in 1994 used Lotus 1-2-3 & WordStar as its primary software, when I got a computer for myself I used WordStar & WordPerfect, with As-Easy-As, a Shareware version of Lotus 1-2-3.

When I started on Linux, I used SC, (Spreadsheet Calculator), a simple spreadsheet for the terminal; didn't need a word prossesor, so just used an editor, but I did use sqlite occasionally, for simple record keeping - ah, those were the days!

I use Devuan because it's what Debian used to be.

If it doesn't suit you, try a different distro, that's the beauty of Linux, choice.

Via the menu.

Just picked up & re read my copy of Into The Core - it's all about Tiny Core Linux & how it works.

Looks like it's a log file of the devices that had been attached, should be perfectly safe to empty/delete.

Hmm, I've just swapped over most of mine to SSDs, I thought they had improve performance these days, compared to when first introduced, but I don't have anything really important, & I do keep recent backups, so I'll likely be OK.

I still have some HDDs, & these are what I backup too, (usually have 2 copies, different disks), I'd hate to have to replace all my music & downloaded stuff.
