Success! Today I: * used wget to download trisquel_8.0_i686.iso - check! * checked the md5sum - check! * used Startup Disk Creator in Belenos to create a bootable USB - check! * rebooted using the USB - check! * checked the integrity of the USB - check! * rebooted and launched a live session using the USB - check! * connected to WiFi - check! * logged in here and posted this message - check!
At times, I have worried that I wouldn't be able to run Flidas on my poor old Aspire One, and that I'd have to fall back to Trisquel-Mini, or maybe abandon Trisquel for a more lightweight distro. I'm happy to report Flidas works like a dream with the new Mate DE, and I'll be staying with standard Trisquel!
Next I will try installing to my test partition. I will also test making a T8 USB using my wife's MacOS, following the instructions on the wiki, and try booting into Trisquel on her Mac too. I'll also download Trisquel-Mini and test that. Will report back on the results.
