(and boot.iso doesn't really count), so imho: user choices are: + * Free DVD installer + * dual arch CD installer (only advanced users) + * LiveCD KDE + * LiveCD Gnome + +for users, choosing between 32bit and 64bit is not really a choice... + + +that 64bit executable files and directories take a little more space is normal. +i guess if this is feasible that we should find some more packages to delete +from the liveCD. also, since the livecd doesn't contain all locales, perhaps +the 32bit one is too tight as well? + +secondly, in mdv times in the past, some people had made a community version of +the 64bit liveCD, does anyone have any info on that and what _THEY_ removed to +make it fit? + +thirdly, perhaps, one could make a dual arch liveDVD instead? (i donno if this +is what users would want though.) + +if the problem is really space-constraints, then perhaps one could explain to +users that the 64bit version is only in LiveDVD format? (just a suggestion) + +another option is to have ONLY a dual arch LiveDVD, that would effectively +decrease ISO production time and QA load... + +but of course, the load on ISO production and QA is one the biggest problems, +which should be easily fixed: + - ISO production => automatisation + - QA => just find more people to test ISOs + +of course, this give extra load to sysadmin team, and we're short on time +too... + +not an easy problem... + +i gave some suggestions here... maybe the appropriate decision makers can +evaluate all the options and decide from there? + +-- +Configure bugmail: <A HREF="https://bugs.mageia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email">https://bugs.mageia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email</A> +------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- +You are on the CC list for the bug. +</PRE> + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +<!--endarticle--> + <HR> + <P><UL> + <!--threads--> + <LI>Previous message: <A HREF="000892.html">[Mageia-webteam] [Bug 1054] [ Beta 2 ] Live CD's only for 32 bit install? +</A></li> + <LI>Next message: <A HREF="000894.html">[Mageia-webteam] [Bug 1054] [ Beta 2 ] Live CD's only for 32 bit install? +</A></li> + <LI> <B>Messages sorted by:</B> + <a href="date.html#893">[ date ]</a> + <a href="thread.html#893">[ thread ]</a> + <a href="subject.html#893">[ subject ]</a> + <a href="author.html#893">[ author ]</a> + </LI> + </UL> + +<hr> +<a href="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-webteam">More information about the Mageia-webteam +mailing list</a><br> +</body></html> |
