Got it installed and booted. Here is some activity as tracked by .bash_history: dpkg-reconfigure console-setup # Debian console fonts are ugly awful, so I change FONTFACE and FONTSIZE # in /etc/default/console-setup to "" each. Kernel's default fonts are # excellent when screen resolution is optimized for my ancient vision mc df . mount -t auto -o noatime /dev/sda23 /mnt pwd umount /mnt mount -t auto -o noatime /dev/sda25 /mnt mkdir /nfs mount -t nfs 192.168.1.2:/pub /nfs # failed apt update apt upgrade # aborted so that new kernel wouldn't waste disk space apt upgrade fuse libfuse2 mc aptitude search mc rpcbind apt install aptitude # apt search is miserable compared to aptitude search aptitude search kernel-server aptitude search nfs rpcbind ip a apt install nfs-common mount -t nfs 192.168.1.2:/pub /nfs # now it works apt install inxi df cd /nfs/Linux/Debian/ ls -l mc* apt purge mc apt purge mc mc-data dpkg -i mc-data_4.8.21-1_all.deb mc_4.8.21-1_amd64.deb # mc 4.8.18 in Stretch and 4.8.19 later are broken dpkg --purge xserver-xorg-video-intel reboot Some MC activity: edited syslinux.cfg cmdline: vga=791 instead of vga=normal net.ifnames=0 added to restore eth0 :-) added various bits to /usr/local On the default TDE desktop session: 1-there is no icon in TCC for session manager xserver-xorg-video-intel removal has had no detectable detrimental effect on (two) Kaby Lake (2017) and (one) Eagle Lake (2008) Intel gfx systems booted to it. Xorg's integrated modesetting driver works a charm. To shutdown or reboot apparently requires use of cmdline. No luck so far trying to find where to report Slax bugs found. :-( -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Whatever else you get, get wisdom."
