Creating a F37 remix/spin LiveCD without a desktop environment

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

Since about Fedora 20 or so, I have been rolling my own Fedora spin without a desktop environment, and with openbox and slim (simple login manager). All worked well, because I did not need to roll these that often, with dnf upgrade on existing installations, except up until now when I need a new LiveCD for a new machine coming online. I last successfully made a LiveCD with Fedora 34. 

Recently, I went back to making a live cd for Fedora 37, and realized that there is a new way of handling these: specifically, I have to install env-group to resolve RH Bug:1891500.

With an environment, it turns out one has to do something like


@^lxde-desktop-environment

but I do not want an environment. 

I tried putting this in, and removing all the LXDE things

-@'Dial-up Networking Support'
-@LXDE
-@Fonts
-@'LXDE Desktop'
-@'Multimedia'
-@base-x                                                                        
-@core
-@fonts
-@'Guest Desktop Agents'
-@'Input Methods'
-@'Printing'
-@'Hardware Support'
-lxpanel
-lxlauncher
-libfm
-menu-cache
-pcmanfm
-lxde-common

and this works, but not quite. I still get large components of the  LXDE environment, slim (which I roll my personal rpm of) does not get started, and I get a slower system. 
I tried explicitly getting rid of the following that I could see:

-clipit
-galculator
-dnfdragora
-dnfdragora-updater
-xpad
-icon
-xarchiver
-xscreensaver
-gigolo
-samba\*
-firewall-config
-firewalld
-lx\*

but still, there are lx\* things in the LiveCD. 

Can I get a LiveCD environment without all this, and with slim? 

Thanks!
