There are several efforts to create Live CDs of GNUstep
GNUSTEP Live CD
of Gürkan Sengün, Version 1.0 released on November 6, 2006
Bugs
- Some Apps can't be started from GWorkspace, instead openapp <MyApplication> is required -- Which?
- Some windows (for instance in DBModeler.app) can't be accessed since the title bar is offscreen (a seasoned gnustepper knows how to fix this but what about the newbees?)
- Some menus behave oddly
- Sometimes a PS/2 mouse isn't recognized (differs from boot time to boot time on the same hardware)
Bugs reported by Fred Kiefer:
- It took a long time to start up, during this it tried to get a network connection via DHCP and also prepared the nfonts. I think the first should be switched off and the fonts preprepared. (Your computer is very slow? Run a DHCP server in the network? Hm yeah maybe the prepreparation is a good idea, wonder how...)
- There were no names on the dock icons, making it hard to realise what they were standing for. (I can fix that, exit wmaker, and it writes different WMState)
- The fonts didn't display white space. (Can you provide a screenshot for this?)
- There were no colour schemas predefined. (Can you provide the schemas and tell where they get on the filesystem?)
Feature Requests
- it should be obvious how to install GNUSTEP on HD from within the Live CD (ideally by employing a GUI based wizard)
