An useless operating system

It was at the time when I saw these cheap retro gaming consoles with only 4GB of storage and 512MB of RAM. I've thought: Could I make a complete retro gaming distribution in that same space?

The answer: Not really. I could squeeze things in 4GB of space, but not 512MB of RAM. Not even close.

But anyways, here's the download link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-LzuryJ2MBLoBvcXmFuBgm9OQ3V_TUy0/view?usp=sharing. Use it at your own risk. (You can also drop it directly to a Ventoy USB.)

There's no sound (I'm too lazy to install it). Wireless drivers and other things took up too much space, so it's also excluded.

This is a simple Debian installation with ES-DE and RetroArch (cores less than 20MB in size were kept).

When you start the OS, an ES-DE instance will start at VT8. Stopping ES-DE makes it restart. You can login as emustation (password is the same.)

It's too resource hogging, and Batocera exists, so it's probably useless. But it's at least fun to try at the end :)
