I have just added uploaded a copy of Barebones 5.01 to my online storage. Sorry it took so long. I am updating my website, so a link will be available there shortly.

if u dont mind, can u make a barebone lucid 5.2.8? I mean its newer and lucid 5.2.5 lite is a bit older in some sense, and its not as 'barebone' as what u have done.
If u cant, it doesnt matter Very Happy

I have begun work on a bare 528, but it is slow coming. the way that i build it takes a while. i should have it done in about a week.
I thought i had it done a few days ago, but apparently i stripped so much out that it broke and i wasn't able to repair it. So i had to start over.

I leave all required programs for puppy to run. I don't believe I removed gtkhash in 5.01. It's just tracking down the files for each app and removing them all that's a little time consuming.

Please don't take out bcrypt, it removes libgcrypt libs which are required for some other encryption programs.

Edit: Will you be adding in the instant update before you strip it?

I don't plan on removing any encryption programs or libs. I probably won't remove the instant update, as it's part of the system files themselves. I'm going to be removing only the non essential files. Instant update is one of the great things about 5.28. Most of the programs removed will be from the bottom 8 menu categories on the start menu. Only a few things on the top menu categories will be touched.

Sounds great, hondasid! Looking forward to seeing a barebones 5.2.8, in due course.
Cheers Smile

Any word on how the Barebones pup for 528 is going?

I'm almost done. Had some RAM issues a few days ago, so I just got back to work on it today. I should have it uploaded before the end of the weekend. I apologize to all those who have been waiting.

You are awsome man. Hoping to use your Barebones for my PupRescue OS to help slim it down a bit.

Hi Hondasid, don't mean to put any pressure on, but Barebones 5.28 may be just what I am after and I was wondering if there is any news.
Many thanks
Tony
