-==== Planning outline for OCLUG live USB distro ==== 
- 
-Date: 17-3-4       John C. Nash 
- 
-==== Goals: ==== 
- 
-  * Unordered List Item"boot anywhere" -- legacy/UEFI, 32/64, non-pae 
-  * customizable 
-  * remasterable 
-  * installable 
-  * documented, both for "product" and how it has been built 
- 
-==== Base ideas: ==== 
- 
-We have a preliminary liveUSB/iso that is 
-  * Arch based 
-  * boots UEFI or legacy 
-  * 32 or 64 bit, and boots on non-pae processor 
-  * This also boots in VirtualBox VM 
-     * can run startx to come up in openbox (manual start) 
-     * very minimal  
- 
-

-      * openbox add-ons such as  
-         * tint2 - system panel and task bar 
-         * conky - system monitor and information center 
-         * nitrogen - for backgrounds 
-      * some documentation on install and configuration for above 
-

-     * pacman installs 
-     * recommended and necessary tools 
-     * how to remove/reduce to keep things tight 
-     * checking and verifying system 
-     * documentation of the above 
- 
- * Remastering 
-     * getting a new live image from running virtual system

-
