To go into the specifics of the four Trisquel 7.0 iso images available on the
trisquel.info website, I tried to install and update them on a Lenovo X61
laptop:
- trisquel-mini-7.0-amd64.iso and trisquel-mini-7.0-i686.iso are not even
possible to be update via the graphical "software updater". In both cases the
software updater crashes! The equivalent of a complete update is not only
sudo apt-get update and then sudo apt-get upgrade but a sudo apt-get
dist-upgrade.
An iso image that has such a defect is bad marketing for free software and
should not be made public.
- trisquel-7.0-i686.iso requires 320 MB of download when using the graphical
"software updater". When running apt-get update and upgrade afterwards
another 33.7 MB are downloaded. Immediately after upgrading there is no
shutdown item in the main menu.
- trisquel-7.0-amd64.iso requires 294 MB of download when using the graphical
"software updater". When running apt-get update and apt-get upgrade
afterwards there are another 69.9 MB of downloads necessary. Immediately
after upgrading there is no shutdown item in the main menu.
