Hi,
I need to go thru your other notes, but Create-ISO did never directly burn.
In T2 we try to follow the Unix philosophy to create tools that do one thing
well,
so that Create-ISO just creates the system image, how the user burns it is up to
them, …
50-minimal desktop will certainly yield errors, I did not build it the last
years.
I only build minimal and locally emerge xorg and friends if I need a desktop
(e.g. not on VM / cloud servers).
That said of corse most desktop stuff incl. X and mesa3d did build when
I emerged it.
Btw. if someone wants to update our outdated kde & gnome package it
would be highly welcome ;-)
René
