@Humpleupagus @matty @tyler The ISO for Commodore OS Vision 3.0 Beta 8 is 35.24gb. I couldn't tell you why, no idea what all they packed into this thing. I just assumed because of enshittification, your average modern Linux ISO was just fuckhuge now and almost everyone didn't mind.

I really want to make my next PC run Commodore OS, simply because it's an MX Linux fork running a custom KDE Plasma 6 redesigned to look and feel like the interface of venerable Commodore 64.

But if this thing keeps shitting me -- it just flashed an error, but the error was on screen for like 1/20th a second and I only caught "I/O device error", what the fuck is my drive suddenly about to die? This thing's been running nearly non-stop, almost never even being rebooted for nearly 11 years, so maybe.

But I see my hard drive just ran out of space. Sigh. It's what I get for stubbornly sticking with the same 256 SSD I originally put into this tower in 2014... this PC does have a 2tb black whatchamacallit, but that died like five years ago and I never even bothered to pull it out or even unplug it.
