You can boot into Live ISO, artix-chroot into the root partition and then run

Code: [Select]

passwd

to change the password for root, or

Code: [Select]

passwd your_username

to change the password for the user your_username. For more information:

Code: [Select]

man passwd

Well the password artix. This Artix is short live first I didn't like how it look and it not Mate but it not. If they wanted all those programs they could have added them. I use Pluma alot and it not there just for one.

I will stay with Nemesis Mate. They didn't have Mate so I built one that I use everyday. Oh by the way they use Artix to build Nemesis.

If I install this artix-base-openrc-20210726-x86_64.iso what will I get when it boot up?

Can I get a complete packages list? I found the Mate install here /var/lib/pacman/local that way I can look at it. I'm 73 years old.

My personal experience, you will need a DSL cable to start and install required drivers.
Maybe someone has another way.

Download the package manually, put it on another drive/usb stick and install it from there on the live media.
If the driver is only in AUR, that get the dkms package and check for possible dependencies and get them all.

It used to be the case (perhaps it still is) with the Mate iso that the live desktop was LXQT, then if you wanted the Mate desktop on the live iso then you just selected LOG OUT from the LXQT desktop then chose Mate when you logged back in. Whatever live desktop you installed from, you would get Mate installed on your hard drive though. Base install is often the best choice if you have the time and knowledge. I've usually managed to get wifi working in various installations but this can take some patience, trying various approaches and searching online for guidance.

After I install this "artix-base-openrc-20210726-x86_64.iso" on a USB and boot it up.

Then I want to install Mate is this what I need to do?

pacman -S mate mate-extra system-config-printer blueman connman-gtk

Will this get save on the USB I boot up from? Then when I boot the same USB will Mate be there?

I have a 64gb USB3.1 is it OK to use? And will use the whole 64gb?

I am 73 years old and live in the Ohio so if there is someone in the United States that would build a USB with this artix-base-openrc-20210726-x86_64.iso and put this pacman -S mate mate-extra system-config-printer blueman connman-gtk on it. And make sure it has WiFi. No other programs I will put what I need.

I have a Dell INSPIRON 1525 Laptop that has Windows 7 Home on it. It has a 320gb Hard drive, 4gb Memory and CDRom.

Here is a question what would you charge me to do it and price for a USB Drive? I just don't think I can do it.

Go back to the artix mate iso then, like I said, Mate should be on there even if it boots into lxqt by default, that's just there because it boots faster. It will install your Mate

and some easy setup wifi stuff by default. I think nous made that iso if it works and you want to thank someone afterwards.

I downloaded it but I didn't like because there were programs I would never use. It would be nice if they would build Mate and just Mate for people like me. Why I'm here Nemesis has the paper icon look and it is to black look. That is why I use Windows 7 because 8 and 10 I hate. Beside I haven't use Windows 7 for 3 years.

I guest I will for another distros that has what I want. I use Slackware since version 9.

Is there some reason you cannot uninstall the programs you won't use? To me the easiest solution to your problem seems to be use the Mate live iso to install your system, remove programs you don't want and install anything else you would like.
