I want to install WinesapOS on my PC but WinesapOS requires 512+ GB and I have a 250 GB NVme drive and It keeps on freezing whenever I'm on the installing part
specs
- 250 GB NVme
- 8GB RAM
- intel core i5 8th gen
- x64
- UEFI
winesapos version
4.0.0
Hey @GuestSneezeOSDev , sorry to hear about your issues. I'd be happy to help out.
At most, the performance and secure images are 25 GiB in size. The minimal image is 8 GiB in size. winesapOS will automatically resize the root file system to fill up all addition space.
How exactly are you installing winesapOS?
- Flashing to an external/portable NVMe drive in a USB enclosure.
- Flashing to an internal NVMe drive.
- Following the new dual-boot guide.
Do you see any errors that you can share?
i just want to know can i make a 64 GB partition for winesapos? will it still install?
Okay, I see. You want to (1) install winesapOS on an internal drive and (2) use a smaller partition instead of using all of the available space.
You need winesapOS 4.1.0-beta.0 to do this: https://winesapos.lukeshort.cloud/repo/iso/winesapos-4.1.0/_test/
You need to create the partitions in this layout: https://github.com/LukeShortCloud/winesapOS/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#partitions
Then follow the dual-boot guide. The only difference is that you need create the EFI partition if it does not exist already (mkfs.vfat /dev/<DEVICE><PARTITION_NUMBER>).
We will eventually provide an installer which will make this process a bit easier: #370
thanks very much i appreciate it i might be able to help by making it all into a .sh file
Thanks, simplifying these steps into a script would be great to help others!
