  • It’s not clear… Do you want a portable USB drive ? If that’s the case it’s easily doable with Arch or Fedora.

    If you want a portable USB that you can modify AND flash then… It’s a little more complicated. You can always make a bootable Arch USB then rsync in any existing drive but it seems a little complicated.

    What you might want to do is create a simple install script. You can pretty much do it for any distro. It will consume more bandwidth than copying/writing an existing distro but will prevent MANY errors.

    With Arch it’s quite simple. I believe it might be as simple with Debian or any other distro.






  • I’ll add to what was said by others, but about [I] and [No]

    When building there is a cache. Sometimes you remove make dependencies, which removes the program but keeps a copy in cache. (There are other ways to remove a program and still keep it in cache)

    [I] means it will clen build all installed packages and use the cache for those that are not installed but were present.

    [No] means it will leave installed packages untouched but will rebuild those that are in cache before reinstalling them.

    Hope that solves it. And as said before - in 99.99% cases None is good enough.




  • Okay first question is : is MATE absolutely necessary ?

    If not, I would advise you to switch to a distro that uses GNOME or KDE. I’d go for Zorin OS which is really perfect for anyone beginning on Linux.

    In any case, I have a solution that should work no matter the device. It requires you to have libinput and libinput-gestures installed (rather than fusuma which I found buggy and laggy)

    You can find it here : https://lemmy.one/comment/2189433

    I tried my best to make it beginner-friendly — even if it is not. Don’t read the first paragraph which is KDE specific.
