Tried everything to get Tor Browser & Mullvad Browser working on BashCoreX (which is based on Bookworm) with NordVPN... 🤯😩
You must use OpenVPN technology and set up ufw for a manual killswitch because NordLynx sucks really... 🤷🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️

@gary_alderson Thanks for the update, Gary! It sounds like you’re juggling a lot, but making steady progress, that’s what counts. The r proxy setup with spidering sounds really powerful, and I’m excited about the dynamic portals and RAG pipelines you’re working on. 💪
Good luck with the cert study, I know time management is tough, but a focused pivot sounds like a smart move. I’m here cheering you on! 💪
Keep me posted whenever you get a chance. #devops #bashcoreX vibes strong! 💪

@nickbearded you know you gotta love hashcat for all the protocols it works on. I got second r proxy online https://debianws.lexgopc.com/
it has some stuff, i am spidering it with the other r proxy box (yacy.lexgopc.com) so all the info will be indexed and searchable. I have to make a couple static sites and then jump back to dynamic basic wp/drupal but also rag pipelines/pydantic, have been v busy with work and ongoing health issues, still getting there bit by bit. i am also going to try and pivot more to studying for cert - I am bad at time management but if i can pivot for a month or something and pass cert likely worth it. if i have wherewithal to get it done is another matter - hopefully. the dynamic portals have a future, I will get more balanced.
i approve of testing on various platforms #devops #bashrc #bashcoreX #federated platforms #random oracles #blackbox zimbra -

Kali Live USB can’t mount my internal disk.
Bad fs type? Missing helper?
It’s 2025. This is basic stuff.BashCoreX mounts it clean. Silent. Instant.
-
BashCoreX ships with #terminator as default terminal.
Not because it's pretty, but because it does the job.I picked it for the name 😆
I kept it because it's a beast 👊

Most people don’t quit Linux because it’s hard.
They quit because they don’t know what to choose...They try dozens of distros chasing “the one”…
Only to end up back on Ubuntu, where everyone has problems.
AskUbuntu gets more traffic than OnlyFans.BashCoreX skips the circus.
It’s clean Debian, built to just work.
-
More packages = more updates.
More updates = more bugs, more breakage, more vulnerabilities.Kali just came out, yet 300+ updates and warnings on first boot.
What will it look like in a few months?
BashCoreX chooses minimalism not for looks, but for security, control, and long-term sanity.
-
Same hardware. Same day.
🐘 Kali:
– 91MB+ to fetch repos
– 312 packages to upgrade
– “Conflicting distribution” warning🐚 BashCoreX:
– 100KB update
– 27 packages
– Zero warningsNot replacing Kali, just showing how clarity and control feel.

If you have a VPN account, here’s a powerful way to stay anonymous with BashCoreX live:
1. Boot BashCoreX live
2. Configure proxychains4 with Tor (socks5 127.0.0.1 9050)
3. Install your VPN (e.g. NordVPN) through Tor using your token
4. Connect to VPN — ISP won’t see your real IP
5. Use Firefox via proxychains4 to download Tor & Mullvad Browser
6. Extract & run them, browse safely with layered privacy
No install. No traces. Total control.

Booted BashCoreX live on my MSI i7 Katana from a 32GB USB stick using Ventoy (with other ISOs on it).
Still got 15.1 GB of usable space on the live system 😳Running with 16 cores, OS using less than 1GB of RAM.
It’s fast, clean, and lightweight. I'm honestly impressed.Minimalist OS, max efficiency. 💪

Had trouble connecting my MSI Katana to WiFi on BashCoreX live — no connection to the router at all. Turns out the kernel modules msi_wmi and wmi_bmof were interfering.
Running this command fixed it:sudo modprobe -r msi_wmi wmi_bmof
After that, I just ran:
sudo nmtui
to configure the network, and WiFi worked perfectly!
If you have an MSI laptop and WiFi issues on Linux, this might help.

BashCoreX (live or injected) with GUI lets you install and run apps like Burp Suite and ZAP Proxy, as long as you’ve got space on the live system! 🙌
***They're not included by default, but you can download and install them easily after boot.
The GUI opens up a whole new level of usability 🔥

Also… I made quite a mess with Snap while trying to install Firefox 😅
Lubuntu was so minimal it didn’t have anything! But in the end, I fixed it all 🙌 -

Success! The BashCore Injector completed on Lubuntu VM — everything installed fine and apps launch correctly.
In the coming days I’ll run deeper tests, but for now, here’s a first look with htop.#BashCoreX #BashCore #Linux #Lubuntu #CustomISO #Persistence #Minimalism #Ubuntu #OpenSource #DevLog #VM #htop

Tonight I'm testing BashCore Injector on Lubuntu to get BashCoreX: a persistent Ubuntu-based version with a GUI.
Lots of GBs to download and install, but so far so good.

Honestly, 50 tools should be more than enough.
Who really tests all 600+ tools in Kali or the 2,500+ in BlackArch?
I tried... but some BlackArch tools didn’t even run properly...In BashCore and BashCoreX, every app works.
No duplicates. No junk. Just tools that actually run.Yes, the ISOs are ~7GB,
but we’ve got Metasploit, Searchsploit, and especially SecLists (which weighs a ton) 🤷🏻♂️#BashCore #BashCoreX #Debian #Pentesting #NoBloat #BlackArch #KaliLinux #SecLists #Metasploit

This MSI Katana is a rocket 🚀
I've already set up the new Debian lab – BashLab – on VirtualBox.
Updated versions of #BashCore and #BashCoreX (2506) are ready...
But internet is painfully slow today. Who knows when they’ll finally be uploaded to #SourceForge 😅#MSIKatana #LinuxLab #Debian #VirtualBox #CustomLinux #BashCoreProject #OpenSource #Pentesting
-
Relentless as always 😅
Maybe tonight, or tomorrow, I'll release BashCore and BashCoreX version 2506.Both will come fully updated (apps + kernel), now including arp-scan and drivers for #NVIDIA and #AMD #GPU s.
Stay tuned! 🐧💻

11 downloads in the first 24 hours, and I only posted on Mastodon and LinkedIn, where I am not so popular! 😅
Thank you all for the interest in BashCoreX.
It means a lot, and it's just the beginning. 🙏More updates, tests and fun ahead! 🤟

Amazing discovery with BashCoreX and Firefox! 🤯
It's not just about accessing AI tools like Gemini or ChatGPT anymore. With Firefox built-in, BashCoreX now lets you view PDFs, images, and even videos directly!
This truly transforms BashCoreX into a versatile environment for learning, productivity, and even light media consumption, beyond just CLI tasks. Expanding capabilities without compromise!#BashCoreX #Firefox #Linux #AI #Multimedia #Productivity #TechEvolution #OpenSource #CyberSecurity

Quick clarification on BashCore vs. BashCoreX:
BashCore is your lean, pure CLI powerhouse. BashCoreX is its evolution, bringing a vital addition: Firefox!
This means you can now natively access and experiment with AI tools like Gemini, ChatGPT, and Copilot directly from your system. Seamless integration for AI-driven coding, learning, and more!
BashCore for minimalism, BashCoreX for expanded possibilities and cutting-edge AI interaction. Choose your core!
#BashCore #BashCoreX #Linux #AI #Firefox -
For students interested in programming, you can absolutely study C and C++ with BashCore and BashCoreX, thanks to the included gcc and g++ compilers.
Plus, you'll find powerful tools like git, vim, and emacs for development. It's a robust environment for learning and security exploration!

It’s official: BashCoreX is now available on SourceForge!
You’ll find it next to the original BashCore — both are downloadable from the same page linked on https://bashcore.orgPlease take a minute to read the TXT file on SourceForge or the short description on the website.
(It took me forever to write it… I’m a bit crazy today, but it’s a special day!)Now it’s time to celebrate.

Why is the hostname still "debian" and the user "live"?
Because sometimes the best way to avoid fingerprinting... is to look boring.In BashCoreX (and possibly in the original BashCore too), I chose to keep generic names on purpose.
No flashy hostname, no custom user, just debian/live.
It blends in. It hides in plain sight. It works.Sometimes, anonymity is about being no one.

12 hours of testing on VirtualBox on my poor old PC.
Zero crashes. BashCoreX is stable, fast, ready.Debian-based, XFCE-powered, loaded with essential tools for ethical hacking.

BashCoreX is born!
The experiment of building the ISO from Debian inside VirtualBox on a Windows host… it worked!
It was a painfully slow process on my poor old PC, but hey, it worked!
They say "love always wins"... Hmm... no, brainpower always wins! 🤟Let’s goooo! 🤪🥇🏆

Sitting here in the dark, Foo Fighters blasting in my ears, beer in hand, rain tapping on the windows. I’m on vacation, wasting hours rebuilding a damn ISO, chasing the ghost of a minimal, perfect system...
I don’t even know if it’s worth it...
Yes, it is. For the beauty of code. For freedom. For the human spirit.

Happy to see things finally falling into place!
SLiM is running smoothly on the live system, and BashCoreX (the GUI evolution of BashCore) is starting to take shape!I'm now installing the CLI toolset via apt inside the chroot.
Next up: testing everything, then bringing in tools from GitHub, GitLab, and the rest of the wild.
Let’s push it further! 🍻

After countless attempts, tweaks, and rebuilds, I’ve decided to abandon the BashCoreLX project (BashCore with LXDE). LightDM issues drove me crazy... 🤯
Now starting tests for BashCore-X with XFCE GUI 💪
Fingers crossed! 🤞
