Vuu-do Files

This is not an official Devuan release, nor a Vuu-do release. This is a user re-spin of Devuan Daedalus, updated completely as of 2/06/2025 with the Mate desktop environment. This is a liveCD and includes the Refracta-installer for fast simple install. This is not uefi-enabled.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Changes in su
 - The behavior of su has changed. Use 'su -' to get root's path or use
   the full path to commands if you use only 'su'. 
    - There are several ways to get the old behavior. The easiest is to 
   edit /etc/default/su to add the line:

    ALWAYS_SET_PATH yes
    
(greenjeans: I tested the above solution and it works, just need to create the file "su" in /etc/default/ as it doesn't have one by default) 

OS-prober is disabled by default when you install grub, explained in this bit from /usr/share/grub/default/grub:

# If your computer has multiple operating systems installed, then you
# probably want to run os-prober. However, if your computer is a host
# for guest OSes installed via LVM or raw disk devices, running
# os-prober can cause damage to those guest OSes as it mounts
# filesystems to look for things.
GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true

This is default as-delivered and good policy to protect those who need it, but if you'd like to change that you can do it anytime including on the live session before you install if so desired. Edit /etc/default/grub and /usr/share/grub/default/grub as root and change the true to false. The changes will persist into the installed system and it will run os-prober during install and your other installs will be recognized. If you do this post install, make sure and run update-grub afterwards.

If you have an EFI system already with other OS'es on other partitions and have grub installed already and don't need a bootloader, just install it without installing the bootloader, then boot into your partition that controls grub and run update-grub.

In all respects it is identical to current Devuan, I have not "vuu-do-fied" it, it contains all original files, docs, translations, help files, original configs, artwork etc. with the following exceptions:

This is a "mini", it contains no browser, office or multimedia programs whatsoever, just the infrastructure for you to build on and configure as you see fit. There are no release notes or manual as this is stock Devuan and ample documentation is available on their site and forum.

Some packages have been added for convenience, these are:
Mozo - simple mate menu editor
Mate-tweak - handy utility, gets rid of pesky desktop icons if you so desire
Parcellite - clipboard manager
NTPsec - keeps time correct
Caja file manger extensions - very handy stuff, resize-rotate images, open terminal here, edit/open as root etc.

Slight mods to config:
File-manager configged to open files with single-click and include delete command that bypasses trash - this made my work go much faster.
Altered sources.list as main repo has been having some issues, changed to what's been working for me and what I used to build this iso.
Set lightdm.conf to autologin the user on the liveDVD for convenience.
