Hi, how can I remove all files of desktop (GUI) after installing with armbian-config.

I am running armbian 4.19.62 sunxi #5.92 on BananaPi M1

I can disable the Desktop but I require the space for the server.

Regards,

Rein

You are also slightly outdated. The release model has been changed last year.

Hi Werner,

The armbian version I am using runs my web site and APRS software very efficiently. I have no reason to upgrade at present.

I never asked you to upgrade. I just wanted to point this out . People sometimes do not realize that they are outdated. Or better to say that their software is

I have same problem.

How to Fix this?

We only integrated option to disable it which means desktop related services will not be running which is in most cases good enough solution - but files are not removed / uninstalled. If you need that perfection, you will need to figure out on your own. When you do, you are welcome to send changes to the armbian-config. 

If it stay disabled is that mean I wont get updates for desktop packages?

If answer is yes then it is not problem at all.

No, only services are disabled, but packages will be updated since they are not removed.

Regarding uninstall via armbian-config please check:

 

 

I did some atp remove/pruge recomended on other forums and on armbian-config now I again have options to install desktop (not enable like before).

I did not remove some depeding things that I think are needed for OMV to work OK.

For now I do not see any problems.
