Re: [orca-list] Apricity os

[Kyle <kyle4jesus gmail com>]

The concept looks good, and the OS is based on Arch Linux. I have 
nothing but positive things to say about that part of it. I especially 
like the customized live media builder, if it works.

As for the installer, their own install script may have problems working 
with Orca, but since the system has its roots in Arch Linux, I'm 
wondering if it may be possible to use the arch-install-scripts package 
to get it installed just like Arch. A better option may be the Arch 
Ultimate Install (AUI), which is a number-based menu system with two 
steps: fifo to configure and install the base system, and lilo to run on 
first boot and install all other packages. The only trouble would be 
ensuring a talking system at first boot, which may not work, since 
Apricity probably doesn't have the TalkingArch mods. In any case, it 
would indeed be better to have a nice graphical installer for Arch-based 
distros that come up using GNOME or MATE that works with Orca.
