persistence like in Puppy or antiX
Is there a particular application that creates persistence or save files in Puppy or antiX? I would like to put it on Devuan. I have the ascii ISO and can have a persistence partition created with Rufus but it's slow on older computers. Like when you dist-upgrade, that is, it becomes terribly slow for a while.

Looks like there are lots of posts for that.

Loading to RAM achieves my goal. It's fast and changes are saved after you finish as long as you have a persistence partition. It's not as convenient as Puppy's style where you can resize the pupsave file on demand (as opposed to resizing partitions), but this addresses my need for speed.

I haven't tried puppy nor Antix yet but i did get linuxmint-19.3-cinnamon-64bit.iso
As a live OS working with persistence.I simply used ventoy which uses a 1 gig .img fiel for persistence. Ventoy formats a usb into 2 partitions: Device Boot Start End Sectors Size Id Type /dev/sdc1 * 2048 7800831 7798784 3.7G 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT /dev/sdc2 7800832 7866367 65536 32M ef EFI (FAT-12/16/32) bash-5.0# On the 1st partition, you can just drag and drop "intact" os iso's ; you can have a few iso's and choose which one to boot basic structure of what goes where : bash-5.0$ cd /run/media/andrew bash-5.0$ ls --color ventoy bash-5.0$ tree -L 2 ventoy ventoy ├── ISO │** └── linuxmint-19.3-cinnamon-64bit.iso ├── persistence.img └── ventoy └── ventoy.json 2 directories, 3 files bash-5.0$ see : https://ventoy.net/en/index.html https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/releases/ https://ventoy.net/en/index.html |
