GNUstep Live CD

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.
• There were no names on the dock icons, making it hard to realise what they were standing for.
• The fonts didn't display white space.
• There were no colour schemas predefined.

Feature Requests

• it should be obvious how to install GNUSTEP on HD from within the Live CD (ideally by employing a GUI based wizard)
