there's no partitioning? WHAT THE FUCK

valve has truely the best developers of ever

why is there a steamos?

you're really out of the loop

valve is making a console called 'steambox' or something and it runs off of a shitty modefied version of debian linux. it's slready bombing hard because there's a total of 3 games that run on it at release day but valve fanboys are once again cumming in their cargo shorts about THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING (silly console fags were nothing like you!)

yep there's no way to partition regardless if you use the iso or the regular installer it says EVERYTHING gets wiped

and it needs a 500gb hard drive to install too it says

that's fucking bullshit. even if you already have an empty partition set up?

it's probably to try and keep people from looking at places they shouldn't but that still wouldnt work because livecds exist

ok so basically they made their own OS and it sucks so bad that really it might as well be a virus

is this assumption correct?

i saw some dudes bitching about how they lost everything because they wanted to set up a partition and it doesn't give a fuck it wipes everything

so many people saying 'hurr it's an ALPHA guiise it's totally worth wiping a hard drive to install this shit' even though they specifically removed the partition tool for no reason

its probably because most steam users wouldnt understand what partitioning is anyways

not sure if steamOS is connected to any repositories

anybody who thinks WINE would be able to run something like steam games is fucking delusional though
