This is a disturbing trend and I'm not sure what the reason is for not including xterm when historically it's always been the most basic terminal Most distributions also default to using gnome-terminal or some other libvte based terminal and I was surprised how many don't offer any other options, suchĪs the xterm. Except for the ones mentioned above, no distribution offered tmpfs as an option during the partitioning stage and anyone who has tmpfs would have had to
#DEBIAN UXTERM INSTALL#
For some distributions, I also went on and tried a custom and encrypted install to see the results I think anyĭistribution allows you to install tmpfs after install.
The focus of this research was on what happens when you choose the default installation options, not what you can do after installation. Apparently people missed the memo on tmpfs, the notice about it was on display in the basement of the planning office for the Not even Gentoo mentions it in their Handbook or Quick Install Guide. Selected an advanced option during install on Mageia or PC Linux OS. This is obviously not true unless you are using the latest version of Arch or unless you have "most distributions put /tmp on tmpfs by default anyways". After releasing that report, there were several "knowledgeable people" who made uninformed comments such as With terminal data being written to disk. This research is related to the report about the libvte scrollback problem You are most certainly welcome to e-mail me updates to the tables below. Time to install all of them in every combination nor fully install X on some of the distributions. I tried my best to include a few versions of some of the most popular ones to show any change in policy. On this page I document the results of my research into the default, custom and encryption options for many of the most popular distributions Linux and BSD install defaults and options related to tmpfs, swap and encrypted filesystems A comparison of /tmp, swap and encryption install time options
