My regular desktop died, and I have to purchase a new
one.
I will be getting an ASUS Mini PC PN41, which is a rebranded Intel NUC:
- Intel Celeron N4500
- 4GB RAM
- 128GB SSD
Which distro should I use in order to install TDE?
Requirements:
- Keep it simple. I can use commandline tools but prefer not to have to.
- I would prefer to avoid systemd based systems.
My experience with systemd is that it really struggles to perform on
low-powered fanless mini PCs like the Intel NUC boxes.
Looking at the list here
https://wiki.trinitydesktop.org/Category:Documentation#Installing_from_a_Pa…
I *think* that Devuan is the only officially supported distro that is
systemd-less. Is this correct?
Would anyone like to comment or make any other suggestions, before I go
ahead with a Devuan install?
Apart from anything not based on devuan .. all mainstream distros come with systemd and
offer the same level of .. "security" (look up the xz story, the
restart-services- problem from november etc, all related to systemd). You could go for
the BSDs, but that's most likely not what you want :)

Thanks in advance,
Steve
