Blueberry Linux — v0.4.1-beta
A bugfix + branding release on top of v0.4.0-beta.
Fixes
- Low-RAM boot panic. The initramfs had ballooned because it extracted the
whole glibc package (gconv modules, static libs, glibc tools), so on a 512 MB
machine it failed to unpack (Initramfs unpacking failed: write error) and
panicked (libncursesw.so.6: cannot open). glibc now goes into a build-time
sysroot and only the runtime libs are bundled — the initramfs is back to ~43 MB
and boots in 512 MB again, still using the pinned container glibc.
Branding / identity
- Ships
/etc/os-release(systemd now greets "Welcome to Blueberry Linux!",
andneofetch/fastfetch/hostnamectlidentify the distro), a branded

GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="Blueberry Linux".- New package:
