The NSA in the US: We can do that?
Random Committee: Well nobody’s watching and no one seems to care no matter what you do anyways
The NSA in the US: Great! It’s a go then. Release the _________ . (whatever new horror it is this time)

I know… I haven’t been around in months. However, I did happen to see this thread and just wanted to extend my sympathies to both of course you guys (especially @joekamprad - how many times have you helped us all?) but also to the Antergos devs, particularly @karasu. I could be wrong here of course, but just by looking at Antergos’ Github commit history it seems @karasu is by far the most active when it comes to Antergos development. While I do not doubt that @lots-0-logs is doing what he can, perhaps his life got busy. I did notice he has been working on some private projects quite often on Github as of late too. So I wonder if @karasu has just been overwhelmed as of late and has been overworking himself some. If that is the case, I could see where he would end up weighing the importance of things if time were to become too precious to do everything. He might have had to decide whether it is in the long run more important to Antergos to maintain a presence here, or continue its development. And I think we all know what we would all pick as the most important if we had to pick one! The continuation of Antergos. So while it is frustrating that they have been silent for so long as of late, I do have to wonder how @karasu and the rest of the Antergos developers are doing. I’ll be keeping you all in my prayers, and just know (if you happen to read this devs) that I am always willing to help in any way I can! I may be busy with Reborn, but I am always willing to help Antergos out where and when I can. After all, without you @karasu I would have never learned how to build an ISO in the first place! Without Antergos, I would have never joined the wonderful world of Arch Linux.

So my prayers go out to you all, as well as my offer of help.

‘eat’ could come pre-installed on a new installation… then people could easily ‘eat’. 😉

I was actually thinking the same thing! Especially in the ISO, where installation questions occur :) .

Thank you so much for this @manuel!

Ooooooh… now this is something I’ll have to bookmark I think :)

Hmmm… I don’t know about Deepin on Antergos, but I can tell you that Deepin on Reborn OS (the distro I develop) works right now :) . I’ll check the list of programs that Cnchi installs for the Deepin desktop… I think some package names changed recently, and so Antergos’ Cnchi is probably just confused if it’s still trying to find an outdated / non-existent package.

Oooooh… this truly looks like a promising, helpful tool for Linux newbies!

Thank you so much @manuel :)

Ooooh… thank you!!! I’ll be trying it out (or at least, I plan to) in the next day or so :) .

Once again, thank you so much for the astounding work and scripts @manuel!

Yay!!!

Thank you so much @piotr :) . Playing it now…

@fernandomaroto said in PORTERGOS (Portable Antergos) - Offline/Online installer UNOFFICIAL:

@keegan

It’s a little tricky, specially considering we can only build using a virtual machine, at least is how i do it.

I recommend you to use Pacbang32 or Portergos32 bits in a VM. From there you can install archiso and port your own configs…

I won’t lie to you, it’s a lot of trials and errors… And takes time and effort.

Thank you! I would have never thought to do this in a 32bit system itself :) . Maybe I’ll use Portergos for this one!
