79 SliTaz GNU/Linux supports all machines based on i486 or x86 Intel compatible
|
pankso@53
|
80 processors. A minimum 192MB of memory is recommended to use the core LiveCD.
|
pankso@53
|
81 64MB is needed for the "slitaz-loram" flavor and 16MB for the
|
pankso@53
|
82 "slitaz-loram-cdrom" flavor.
|
pankso@53
|
83 </p>
|
pankso@53
|
84 <p>
|
pankso@53
|
85 With the slitaz-loram flavor, the system is less responsive, but allows you to
|
pankso@53
|
86 graphically install SliTaz on very old machines. Once installed, SliTaz works
|
pankso@53
|
87 well with a minimum of 16MB memory, but forget about using Firefox to surf the
|
pankso@53
|
88 web - you'll have to use the text based 'links' for example.
|
pankso@53
|

pankso@53

|
pankso@53

91 SliTaz 3.0 provide all needed drivers and tools such has 915resolution to
|
pankso@53

|
pankso@53
|
97 <p>
|
pankso@53
|
98 SliTaz GNU/Linux is distributed as a bootable LiveCD allowing you to use
|
pankso@53
|
99 it as a nomad system or graphically install to the hard drive and retain
|
pankso@53
|
100 the use of your previous system including all settings, applications,
|
pankso@53
|
101 documents, etc.
|
pankso@53
|
102 </p>
|
pankso@53
|
103 <p>
|
pankso@53
|
104 The LiveCD can also be customised and easily rebuilt both graphically or from
|
pankso@53
|
105 the command line. Install your own custom set of packages, or simply use one
|
pankso@53
|
106 of the preset flavors on the mirror. Then simply generate your distribution
|
pankso@53
|
107 with the "Tazlito" tool.

|
pankso@53

115 who is split in separate package for additionnal driver or features. This time

179 The SliTaz GNU/linux installer offers an update function allowing you to
|
pankso@53
|
180 upgrade from a '2.0' to '3.0' version. To upgrade the system you first
|
pankso@53
|
181 need to boot the 'Stable' LiveCD, launch the installer, select upgrade and then
|
pankso@53
|
182 specify the partition containing the system that you want to update. The
|
pankso@53
|
183 installer will then clean out the system and reinstall all the packages not
|
pankso@53
|
184 present on the CD from the mirror. When this has finished you can reboot
|
pankso@53
|
185 with your new version of SliTaz.
|
pankso@53
|
186 </p>
|
pankso@53
|
187 <p>
|
pankso@53
|
188 Note that the installer will keep a copy of the list of packages and a complete
|
pankso@53
|
189 archive of the /etc directory (etc.tar.gz) in /var/lib/slitaz-install.
|
pankso@53
|
190 </p>
|
pankso@53
|
191 <p>
|
pankso@53
|
192 To upgrade a 2.0 to 3.0 it is also possible to use the package manager "Tazpkg"
|
pankso@53
|
193 via the 'set-release' function, but beware this is not yet proven and may
|
pankso@53
|
194 require some manual intervention. If you choose this way you must first
|
pankso@53
|
195 install 'tazpkg' from 3.0, because package format have change.
