I have been successful in creating a revived Livarp distro based on Sid and Liquorix kernel.
Using your latest refracta snapshot for Sid (9.1.0)
All OK so far ;

Keep up the great work!

Thanks for sharing this, Neil!
I'm curious to find out which livarp version you chose as a base
0.4.2 (wheezy; all non-free stuff removed)
http://linux.softpedia.com/get/System/O ... 0901.shtml
0.4.1
http://archive.today/8qOYu
0.4.0 (wheezy; 12 WMs)
https://gitorious.org/livarp/livarp_04/ ... 84b:README
https://gitorious.org/livarp/livarp_04/ ... ist.chroot
0.3.9 (squeeze; 9 WMs)

OK...well first of all I have been advised by the developer to rename the project...so I have 'neilsid' as the new name...
I based it on the 0.4.1 liquorix release.
Hope this helps.

Cool. Glad to hear it worked. Where's the download? I'd like to check it out.

sourceforge isn't responding for me right this moment, but the download URL should be: https://sourceforge.net/projects/neilsid/
It booted fine for me & brought back memories (not all good, e.g. the "l33t" black text on charcoal gray bg theming)

Yeah, I tried that and got

> This project has no files.

Git repo is empty, too.
Maybe he still needs to change the name and make a new iso? It's been awhile since I've tried out different desktops/window managers. I'm ready.

neilsid...memories of livarp...is on hold.
I am working on my other project dwmX...this time upgraded to Debian Sid+Liquorix kernel.
dwmX uses dwm from suckless tools.
http://dwm.suckless.org/
Refracta is making some nice ISO's with your latest refractasnapshot release.
Just working on ISO size at the moment...
ISO will appear at some point soon here;
https://sourceforge.net/projects/dwmx/
meanwhile there are still ISOs available based on Wheezy to try out...built with refracta, of course.
