I've tried looking around for the bug and for example, deleted the existing user config etc. You’ll thank me for it.I've had the recurring problem on multiple 64-bit Ubuntu installations on multiple Raspberry Pi 4B's where libreoffice crashes on startup - this seems to be a persistent bug, as it has happened to me on 20.04 LTS (arm64) as well as more recently on 20.10 groovy (arm64), whether I've used the official APT packages or the LibreOffice Launchpad PPA's. But it is something that is highly worth at least trying. It clocks in much larger at 163 MB and is on the Download page (along with ports to the Raspberry Pi and other architectures). You can also install what is called “Tiny Core Plus” which has Wireless drivers and some extra software pre-installed for newer users. Though it is a bit different than your run-of-the-mill package repository system. There’s no office suite or even web browser out of the box. The core download doesn’t include a bunch of software. Luckily the online documentation has lots of details and screenshots for those new to installing a more “old-school” Linux.

I’d wager to say that the graphical installer of most Linux distributions are larger than the entirety of Tiny Core Linux. Installing Tiny Core is not difficult - especially for anyone who has been around Linux for more than a couple years. I then recommend reading the Installation guide. Even if you have a slow Internet connection, it’ll download quickly. You can grab the 13.0 release from the Tiny Core download page. If you have never tried Tiny Core… I highly recommend it. With only 2 GB, Ubuntu runs about as fast as a frozen ball of boogers. Think about it like this: Ubuntu can barely run with 2 GB of RAM. Speaking of which… let’s talk about that whole “Tiny Core can run in 48 megabytes” thing for a second.Īnd, even with only 48 MB… it still runs fast. You can run your entire operating system… from RAM. Experienced users can still install Tiny Core to disk, but Tiny Core can run in 48 megabytes of RAM. Individuals with RAM to spare can even use Tiny Core to load and run their programs from RAM (you didn't know your computer could run Open Office and Firefox so quick). “Unlike most operating systems, the Tiny Core can run completely from RAM. Beyond simply not requiring much drive space, Tiny Core has some pretty amazing features.
