boto Alpha 0.47 Bogie is a public alpha of the ISO, it is lacking a system files rebranding and program integration, it has multiple cosmetic bugs, and is partially lacking config files. It is fully functional and can be used, but is not as seamless as the full release boto 1.0 will be, and is lacking optimizations
Hardware Requirements:
Boot: 240MB Memory, x86_64 processor 65 points in GB5, 4gb storage drive
Light web browsing - Firefox: 800mb memory, x86_64 processor 120 points in GB5
Youtube - Firefox, 144p30: 900mb memory, x86_64 processor 200 points in GB5
boto Alpha 0.47 Bogie can run fine on an internal drive and from a live environment, but i would not recommend running it from a USB 2.0 flashdrive, as under a heavier load i have noticed the weak data link can starve the system to a point of causing kernel panic, but it is possible to browse the internet and even watch youtube on as far back as a 2008 laptop running on a USB 2.0 flashdrive, it is just more IO-intensive tasks that can cause a kernel panic or other form of system lockup
I have also noticed that, due to using bare ALSA, bluetooth audio does not work, and is quite difficult to set up. I will work on fixing bluetooth audio (A2DP) in the next ISO release.
There is currently no display settings manager, i removed ARandR from the stock antiX install because i dont feel it exposes enough settings, im planning to install RRandR, but to do that i will need to bugfix a rust dependency issue, i will try to have this issue fixed in the next ISO release and thus have RRandR installed as the display settings manager.
I have blacklisted SoF audio drivers in this version (at least i believe i did the correct process to blacklist them) in hopes of allowing ALSA to interface properly with DSP audio systems. This is untested as of yet, but when i am able to i will test to ensure that ALSA is able to interface with DSP audio systems.
