ArchXFCE Live CD?
Hey, I was wondering if anyone would be interested in creating an Arch Linux Live CD that uses XFCE, similar to ArchBang which uses OpenBox and the Chakra Project which uses KDE.
The reason why I'm asking is that I prefer XFCE over everything and I prefer using Arch-based stuff over *buntu, which is horrible and bloated, it couldn't run as a Live CD on my 700mhz Celeron yet Chakra did.
Yes, this would result in some of the steps of the Arch installation being already sorted out but Live CDs are handy things, especially when you're not intending to install an OS on them.

This is the next best thing to what you want. There's way too much Arch media about, live or otherwise, as it is.

Isn't it one and the same recommendation 
? And no, it's Xfce no longer. It's OpenBox 
. It must be perfectly easy to roll LXDE on top of it.

Re: ArchXFCE Live CD?
cybercode, this is the second thread that you have necrobumped.
Don't. Make sure you read all the forum rules.
There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !
