I have a 13-DVD set of Debian Jessie 8.2 that has been used to create a working on-disk repository as determined by customizing a standard Debian installation.
I'd like to start again with a minimum Devuan installation, then use my on-disk repo to create my own Devuan/Debian system with an LXDE desktop.
I've been following recent posts including dev1fanboy's Debian-Devuan conversion and the need to use angband.pl to re-install CUPS after removing systemd and dependencies.
I'm also aware that I'll be pretty much on my own in this, but having spent several years using Gentoo and it's increasingly entrammelled rolling releases, I'm reasonably confident of success.
There appear to be a number of alternative starting points. The package lists for Devaun/2.0/main and Devaun/jessie/main are different, but I've selected the Devuan-jessie-netboot-i386-alpha2.iso as my starting point. I intend documenting the process both for my own convenience, and perhaps to pass along to anyone else interested.
I'd be most grateful if any contributors to this thread had advice or suggestions to offer.
