i understand but sense hes asking for a ridiculous size i figure he has very little space and maybe wants to install a few other apps.
It's only because someone else has managed to do it but he cannot get info from him how he did it. I do not think he needs it to be that size for any specific reason.
Frankenbuilds, you never know what they have taken out and worst of all is you never know what they may have put in. W10 1809 is a pig so untouched source, installed updated tweaked everytime please.
Found the one he is talking about on a torrent site. Spoiler: Some Info First line says it ALL Here is list of some things removed from another build Spoiler: List
Great flying jeezus! Talk about something to run away from, this is it! I suppose the OP is just trying to do it so he can say he did it.
18362.1 Pro x64 en-US install.esd = 1.82 GB (1,961,781,954 bytes) Only removed all windows apps (using MSMG toolkit), cleaned up the image and converted install.wim > install.esd.
Something like that would be completely unusable. I don't see the point. If they're trying to get something running on a pentium 3 with 512 mb ram, why not just use windows xp? Anything a little newer would run 7. This makes no sense at all.
Yeah, maybe puppy linux even. I mean, chopping everything out of windows 10 is completely ridiculous.
I hate it when people recommend linux when the harsh reality is that linux on potatoes is an order of magnitude worse than windows, because of... driver support. Proton, DXVK etc. are great for recent hardware, but if your potato gpu does not support a fairly recent opengl standard, you can't use them. It is going to struggle even with basic qol features like display native resolution, overscan, vsync, fonts will look like crap. And what about the elephant in the room - needing to compile drivers yourself - so much fun when not even the wireless adaptor works... As for application support, wine and wine-ish alternatives are still a joke. So how about you dont mention linux at all next time on this forum section, it's a brutal alternative!
I agree 100%. But... once I was in a situation for a few weeks where the only pc I had access to was really old and it had no hard drive but I had a 256mb flash drive. Puppy linux was the only thing I could get to run on it. Yes, it was a pain in the butt, but I could get online and do stuff. So it's not outside the realm of usability in certain situations where the alternative is non-existent.
Timme consuming and problematical. I get a default ltsc 64bit, untouched source, updated, tweaked and fettled at 6gb installed. Ive had times like that, Linux live comes in very handy and no hdd/ssd needed. 4gb ram at crucial £22 cheap cpu £50 or less cheap mobo £35 to £55 factory refurb corsair power supply £30. It wont run skynet but it will get you out of the
Besides, anything beginning with Windows 8 requires the CPU SSE2 instruction set. All CPUs before Pentium 4, and even some from the Pentium 4 era do not support SSE2 and thus cannot run anything higher than Windows 7 (not up-to-date) or Windows XP (dito). As for Linux, I'd put a special distro for museum PCs on old machines, like Antix Linux. The chance is higher that it has drivers for old GPU etc. aboard...
I remembered this cartoon series as it used to telecast in my country in dubbed language but never knew it was Italian.
