I’m learning alot about making a working image, thank you for the tips, the tools and patience answering my questions, where would I start to read when i want to know more about profiles, overlay, skel directories and how it all ties together? I’ve been looking at the wiki and assumed the process was roughly similar
Gnome does seem slowish, but running from a sd card. once I am happy enough with my settings (and unable to further adjust because I lack the knowledge/time) I’ll run with it and see how it goes. So far I’m enjoying myself immensely with this
