LXDE goes Supersonic with Quad Boot

A bit of festive fun ;) LXDE goes Supersonic with Quad Boot USB-A at 5GiB per sec test run. :shock: Before going Ballistic with Multi Boot Thunderbolt-4 ports at 40GiB per second. :geek: Rough and ready proof video showing Loc-OS LXDE as default, booting into Tails+Tor before rebooting into Loc-OS t...

Re: HP EliteBook 860 16 inch G9 Notebook

Will let you know – fingers crossed :) Always been afraid of Dual Boot in case I brick the computer. :oops: Grasped the nettle and shrank Win11 partition on new 2023 HP EliteBook Disabled Secure boot..

My 2013 Dell Latitude E6420 i7 currently running Debian based Loc-OS is mainly used for exp...
