The full version is too big for me, thus I’d like to download the basic torrent. However, even if I chose from the drop-down the basic version, I always end up downloading the full one. Thus, where can I download the basic endless OS?
The torrent for the basic version of 3.0.9 (for example) is:
https://torrents.endlessm.com/torrents/eos-amd64-amd64-base-3.0.9-full.torrent
In that filename, base refers to “basic”; full meas that this is a single-disk image. We also have “split-disk” versions of the OS for machines with one small hard drive and one large-but-slower SD card.
Compare to, for example, the Arabic version:
https://torrents.endlessm.com/torrents/eos-amd64-amd64-ar-3.0.9-full.torrent
Notice that ar is used in place of base here.
