Hello,
as a new user of Alpine, I am confused about what the differences
between different options on the downloads page are. The short text is
vague and incomplete and I couldn't find any significant further info on
the wiki, in the docs or in the mailing list archives.
It would be great to have more detail on the downloads page, or a
wiki/doc page detailing the differences. Especially the difference
between "Standard" and "Extended" would be great to know, since I have
heard that eg. ZFS is only possible with "Extended" (Please correct me
if I am wrong).
I have also seen a previous (though unanswered) thread where somebody
was asking about the difference between the "Raspberry Pi" and "Generic
ARM" images during my search for more information. Especially the "And
much more..." in the RPi image description leaves me with a lot of
question marks. 😅
If I am not missing something completely obvious, I think this
information is significant enough that it should be clearly listed
somewhere. If it is somewhere, it would be cool to have it more
accessible, ideally linked right from the downloads page. Thank you!
Best,
Unicorn
