Basic Systems

Linux basic systems and a summary page of installation descriptions for related accessories.

The basic systems are also known as minimal server installations they only contain a recent Linux installation in console mode, without a graphical interface, which I add to them with some basic extra packages (e.g. dwarfopenssh-server, etc.). The category of basic installations with a desktop environment can be found here.

These can be considered as the foundation stones for further tutorials, as much of the tutorials will be based on these basic systems.

Installing the base systems In VirtualBox I do it and put the finished virtual machine image file in the downloads in the appropriate categories. This allows anyone to download and try them out on virtual machines. Or if you just don’t want to spend time with the installation, but want to try the tutorials based on them, this is a more convenient solution for quick testing.

The installation of the basic systems is not a condition for a VirtualBox use, so anyone can install them properly on their computer, I only install them on a virtual machine for portability, so that I can share them here on the site.

As my time allows, I will try to make minimal installations with multiple distributions and multiple versions of them little by little to make them more useful.
