irPhunky Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 Before I went OSX I always used TinyXP for Windows, it was a great stripped down version of Windows XP with nothing but the bare minimum of what you need to get up and running. It was also up to date with all required updates. I know this would be harder to do on OSX due to the nature of its driver support, but i'm sure we could still do something like this - even if there was build for each hardware type (Intel and Non-Intel) I just think it would be nice to have an installer that only used what was needed to get OSX up and running, no extra printer drivers, no extra software - just OSX and then let the user take it from there. I don't know maybe this is not needed !? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/162585-tinyosx/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecker Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 You can pretty much select the bare minimum during the installation process. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/162585-tinyosx/#findComment-1136016 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volcacius Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 OSX distro like iPC or XxX are already stripped down to minimum; they fit on a normal dvd, while retail OSX needs a double layer one.
