[02:06] <jphilips> Unit193: commented on a youtuber's video that xubuntu core is available and this was his reply
[02:06] <jphilips> "Its been horrific trying to get the core installer to work. Three attempts and about two hours of time spent on the install. Normal version was on first time and in less than 10 mins.
[02:06] <jphilips> I was convinced my download was corrupted, but I compared the SHA256 hash and it was a match"
[02:36] <Unit193> jphilips: OK..?
[02:39] <Unit193> "Someone somewhere is having issues with the installer" unfortunately isn't something I can do anything with.
[02:40] <jphilips> yep i know, just passing it along. here is the youtube comment

[02:42] <Unit193> Alrighty..
[04:14] <Unit193> Err, where the did "87.5 GB free" come from?  It's wrong for minimum sys requirements though, perhaps recommended is good I guess.
[04:15] <jphilips> 7.5 is supposed to be canceled out and it is supposed to be changed to '8 GB'
[04:16] <jphilips> maybe i forgot the cross outline on the 7.5
[04:16] <Unit193> Ahhh, OK.  That makes more sense than 87.5. :)
[04:17] <Unit193> FWIW, the ISO actually has a file on it that notes the size of the uncompressed squashfs system.
[04:18] <jphilips> oh okay. where can i find that file?
[04:18] <jphilips> of course i was taking into account that the user needs a swap file and space for their home folder files
[04:18] <Unit193> Note that it is the *bare* minimum, there should be more than that for wiggle room.
[04:19] <Unit193> casper/filesystem.size
[04:22] <Unit193> So: isoinfo -J -x /casper/filesystem.size -i focal-desktop-amd64.iso 
[04:26] <Unit193> But again, at least 10 sounds pretty safe to me, despite what the file says. :)
[04:27] <jphilips> 4.23gb for desktop
[04:27] <jphilips> 2.5gb for core
[04:28] <jphilips> though thats not taking into account the swap file
[04:28] <Unit193> Some people don't create those. :3
[04:29] <jphilips> of course, but i'm talking about the regular installation
[04:29] <Unit193> But, like I said, I only objected to 80+, I'm good with what you're saying. :D
[04:29] <jphilips> no way it would be 80+ when recommended is 20gb :D
[04:30] <Unit193> I think the smallest I had Ubuntu on was 20G disk.
[04:30] <Unit193> And by 'Ubuntu' I do not mean Mainbuntu.
[15:22] <jphilips> Unit193: guess you didn't see the line in the 7.5 https://imgur.com/Vnj4blf.png

[21:49] <Unit193> jphilips: No, that doesn't show up in my email client (html or text rendered), nor https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-devel/2020-May/011941.html
[23:20] <jphilips> Unit193: its '<strike>7.5</strike>' here https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/xubuntu-devel/attachments/20200501/54f38459/attachment-0001.html
[23:20] <jphilips> so seems like your email client cant render html properly
[23:22] <Unit193> I don't think people are going to click that when reading archives. :)  Amusingly, https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_strike.asp but this all seems a bit moot now.
[23:22] <Unit193> (I doubt my client will do <del> either, but nor will lists.u.c)
[23:26] <jphilips> the youtuber did his review video and included core - https://youtu.be/xYnzqtPiK7s?t=80
[23:27] <jphilips> the crasher he experienced seems like the same one i had
