If I could figure out how to do something similar with a Devuan installation disc; that is, just for myself at first. (I've explored the internal structure of installation discs, and it doesn't seem too complicated, but I may be wrong.) Then after testing, add it to Debian and other discs. It would be unofficial, of course, but at least a start. I just want a "pure" GNU/Linux Debian-type system, with TDE as a default desktop choice. First, though, I need to get a new laptop, which might take a couple months. And then maybe I can be running these experiments on the side, on a test machine. I am just putting this idea out there, if anybody else likes it. You can call me completely bonkers, but we already knew that. I am not a coder or developer, much less a hacker. But I do like to tinker and make things. Links or suggestions, or dire warnings -- all are welcome! Thanks for any help or direction.
