Come rimuovere completamente GNOME?

Voglio rendere il mio Ubuntu installato il più leggero possibile per avviarlo solo su una macchina RAM da 256 MB (VirtualBox)?

Quindi sto pensando di rimuovere completamente GNOME e i relativi componenti. Come posso fare ciò?

Questo link non mi aiuta: http://complete-concrete-concise.com/ubuntu-2/ubuntu-12-04/ubuntu-12-04-how-to-completely-uninstall-remove-gnome

Dopo aver installato Ubuntu 12.10 desktop edition, ecco come rimuovere Unity, X11 e tutte le applicazioni grafiche che vengono installate per impostazione predefinita:

• Disconnettersi e premere Ctrl- Alt- F1per accedere al primo terminale virtuale, lasciando l'ambiente grafico di X. Se utilizzi VirtualBox e sono in una macchina virtuale, premere Right Ctrl- F1invece.

• Inserisci il tuo nome utente e password.

• Esegui questo comando per rimuovere Unity:

  sudo apt-get remove unity \
  unity-asset-pool \
  unity-services \
  'unity-lens-.*' \
  'unity-scope-.*' \
  'liboverlay-scrollbar.*' \
  appmenu-gtk  \
  appmenu-gtk3  \
  appmenu-qt \
  firefox-globalmenu \
  thunderbird-globalmenu \
  unity-common \
  'libunity.*' \
  unity-greeter \
  'unity-webapps-.*' \
  'indicator-.*' \
  xul-ext-unity
  

• Esegui questo comando per rimuovere X, programmi grafici e qualsiasi altra cosa che non ti aspetti su un server. Questo elenco è stato generato confrontando l'elenco dei pacchetti installati su un sistema desktop Ubuntu 12.10 appena installato e un sistema server Ubuntu 12.10 appena installato.

In alternativa, potresti prendere in considerazione l'installazione di Ubuntu Server Edition . È un'installazione minima, quindi puoi installare i pacchetti che ti servono, piuttosto che rimuovere quelli che non ti servono.

Considera anche l'uso di un diverso sapore Ubuntu se desideri un'installazione minima. Sia l'edizione server che Lubuntu sarebbero adatti. Ovviamente Lubuntu sarebbe la cosa migliore se desideri una sorta di funzionalità X e non avrà problemi a funzionare su quella quantità di RAM.
