NEWS 240207 ABOUT DSL-e
I’ve made a remaster of Damn Small Linux 2024 – 32 bit. DSL 2024 is based on Debian 12 ("bookworm") and antiX. "The New DSL 2024 has been reborn as a compact Linux distribution tailored for low-spec x86 computers. It packs a lot of applications into a small package. All the applications are chosen for their functionality, small size, and low dependencies. DSL 2024 also has many text-based applications that make it handy to use in a term window or TTY"....

On Linux there are ways to set changed at time and created at time for files. For example:
xfs_db -c "inode <inode_number>" -c "chattr <new_change_attribute>" /dev/<device_name>

That is for chaned at on XFS.
BTRFS:
chattr --ctime="2022-01-01 12:00:00" filename
ZFS:
zfs set creation=2022-01-01T00:00:00 pool/dataset/file

Test this before large scale but these things may do setting changed...

exGENT (Gentoo) 64bit Live DVD/USB with LXQt 1.4, Calamares Installer and kernel 6.1.67-gentoo-x86_64 – Build 240201 – can be installed to hard drive in 3 min!

REPLACEMENT
This version (240201) replaces version 240121/230109 with OpenRC.
NOTE 1: In version 240201 I have uninstalled many packages which are unnecessary in an LXQt environment. Some KDE libraries are left though. They are needed by the Calamares Installer. I have also added the Spotify app, which you can...

Precarious work-around to the inability of setting a default pre-selected/focused button on Y.A.D.

While apparently default button sets like ok/cancel pair or some other that has some additional over those have a default set automatically, so one can just press enter without mouse-clicking the button. But for more custom buttoms it seems that the default focus disappears, and hitting enter does nothing. At least depending on the entirety of the dialog, maybe it has some nonsensical focus on some other area where it doesn't really respond to "enter," like "--picture," maybe...

NEWS 240125 ABOUT exGENT (Gentoo) 64 bit
I’ve made a new EXTRA version of exGENT with only a few necessary packages pre-installed. The system is built from “scratch”. I.e. installed the “Gentoo way” following the Gentoo Handbook. It uses LXDE as Desktop Environment and kernel 5.15.80-gentoo-x86_64 (Gentoo’s original kernel) while running the system live (from a DVD or a USB stick). After a hard drive installation kernel 6.7.1 (latest stable kernel version) will be used. This exGENT build...
