<br><span dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">I tried again the offline installer.</span>
<br>
<br><span dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0;">It is OK for a not graphical base installation, but a deeper management, as EndeavourOS currently offers (or as ArcoLinux offered) would permit to offer one and only iso , and I think it would be the best choice</span>

Honestly, I don't know what that means.

<br>
As far as I am concern, the real problem here is that Calemere is not a
<br>
dependable platform.
<br>
<br>
I've looks at over a 100 installations already, probably a lot more,
<br>
and the damn thing just fails to work without seeming reason ... like
<br>
all the time. And it is not an Artix controlled program.
<br>
<br>

then that one iso could be updated and modifyed to the users desired init, de, and other packages.

A base install does just that... fwiw. I have had no trouble with
<br>
installing DMs with pacman.
<br>

Even with OpenSUSE and YAST, you get a serious of choices, 4 of them the
<br>
last I looked of full on gnone, fullon kde, limited X graphics or
<br>
terminal.
<br>
<br>
And even with Yast, you just into real trouble with creating custom
<br>
partions. I rarely see it work well with Calemeres. WHen I am in a
<br>
rush I will just mount the disks off the live disk and create the
<br>
partitions with cfdisk and the appopriate mkfs and then reboot and let
<br>
the system identify the partition scheme and cross my fingers and hope
<br>
it takes.
<br>
<br>
That requires a little planning before you install.
<br>
<br>
I stil have a knoplix disk somewhere.

Presumably, then user installs could be just as the user desired.
