This looks amazing, congratulations! I can see that it seems to run offline (curl says "# requires networking"), but if I launch it on airplane mode on an iPhone it halts. Is this the expected behavior? Also, is it possible to install packages? These two things could address some of the shortcomings of iSH. Thanks!!
- apignotti 2y agoThe disk blocks are streamed on demand, so a connection is required. The virtual disk is quite large (1.5GB) which is necessary to run a full distro but makes pre-downloading for offline mode not possible. It _could_ work if you let your workload run once and then disconnect, but there is no guarantee. Installing packages is supported both in the Debian terminal and Alpine desktop.
