I have repartitioned too, in order to test Nemo. But if you run Debian from an image, can you install additional software from within the chroot?

Yes, I am doing it exactly now : with your image mounted/chrooted, you can add new softwares. Then you can save, compress, share this image. Even resize the image.

My blog has a new post about "Nokia N9 with Easy Debian : OpenOffice, TeX, Maxima, etc". Some screenshots :
OpenOffice 3.2 :

wxMaxima 12.01 :

TeXMaker & TeX/LaTeX :

In the end there is a link for a modified "debian-m5-v3e.img.ext2" image with more space, programming languages and scientific softwares.

You folks are brilliant! My only lament is that the N9 has no HWKB...

Has anyone tried running Windows apps via Wine or Virtualbox in easyDebian? I'm wondering if the performance crosses over to "somewhat usable" on the N9's CPU. Imagine running Access or Photoshop on your Linux phone .

I third that....lol

I would like a step-by-step

rcolistete | # 70 | 2012-03-20, 04:27 | Report

Yes, I have made a step-by-step guide to installing and basic use in post #57.

The additional softwares were installed using :

[root@chroot: ~] apt-get install --no-install-recommends dpkg-dev build-essential

The same for texmaker, gedit, etc.
