1.5 KiB

It has been a week, and I was able to make lots of progress during this week, infact, as of 22/12/23 Matterlinux is a bootable system! Yes, you can install MatterLinux with a simple OpenSSH server setup right now! Well, at least in theory, there is no documentation so good luck figuring it out yourself.

Details

Currently the base repo has (I think) 114 packages while the desktop repo only has 3, and yes I will be expanding both of these repos overtime.

While we are on the topic of packages, I have mention that I changed init system/service manager to systemd. That's because systemd overall has more support and documentation. (And maybe because I am a massive idiot and have no idea how to setup dinit)

Moving on, I also fixed a lot of bugs in mp and other build tools. Plus I made some litte additions.

Also created the matter-tools repository, which contains scripts and tools for Matterlinux installation and configuration.

And lastly I made a stupid logo with GIMP in like a minute, it looks shit and I will try to find an actual designer/artist for a better logo.

What is next?

I won't be really active for few weeks, but after that I guess I will be upgrading the web server so I can start hosting the repos. Also I will start working on the wiki. I decided to use MediaWiki for the wiki and I hope everything works out well.

That's all for now, see you in the next post.
