Re: Another Scorpion overview

I like this overview as it starts by showing Q4OS being setup on Virtualbox, handy for those who want to try it.

Re: Another Scorpion overview

I agree, and once users can see how responsive it can be in a virtual machine compared to some of the more "bloated" distros they might consider trying it on bare metal too.

Re: Another Scorpion overview

I wish we had a video for this site that walked thru installing from Virtualbox.  I also wish we had videos for some of the install and other aspects of setting up Q4OS even though some of the recent overviews do a pretty good job of it.

Re: Another Scorpion overview

I have to say it is one of the things I had in mind to start doing myself, but unfortunately I haven't had the time this year, I do hope to overhaul my site (probably after Christmas) to reflect a Scorpion setup, and will be expanding on other usage tutorials to guide users through anything they find difficult or not intuitive.

Re: Another Scorpion overview

I was going to ask you if you were going to do videos or screenshot walkthroughs on your site.

Re: Another Scorpion overview

I might have to go for a paid host though, so far I have been doing everything for free but there have been a few changes recently with my host and they will be closing my site for an hour a day (if I remember right) which is a bit of a PITA but I cant exactly ask for my money back big_smile so have already started looking for the most cost effective hosting and have been pleasantly surprised with the prices for what you get.

Re: Another Scorpion overview

Im sure some of us could help cover the costs if you decide to do that.

Re: Another Scorpion overview

Thanks, I will be looking into the best way to make it self sustaining and am pretty sure it will not take too much. smile
