Large format 3D printer 72"×24"

The Custom 77″ × 24″ Large-Format Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) 3D printer is designed for industrial prototyping, large-scale tooling, and production of extended-length components. The system emphasizes modularity, multi-zone heating, and high dimensional stability over a large build area.

The printer is constructed from a reinforced heavy-duty shelving unit with added crossbars for frame rigidity, providing a cost-effective yet structurally sound platform for large-format additive manufacturing.

• Modular bed surface allows replacing only damaged sections instead of the full 72″ × 24″ plate

• Multi-zone heating improves energy efficiency and reduces warm-up times

What is this?

This is because https://www.amigaforever.com/kxlight/resources/ is comming soon for the past 5 years and I am not sure why I gave them money. I have phyiscal roms, and have licenses for all the software, but I still gave Cloanto (stupid name) money.

Amiga Forever introduced KX Light as a lightweight version of its distribution in 2019. KX Light is based on the Knoppix Linux distribution and is designed to provide a user-friendly environment for running Amiga emulation and related applications. It aims to offer a more streamlined experience while still retaining the essential features of the Amiga Forever package.

They just came out with version 11 and they should have gone with a newer emulator or at least updated the hard drive image to have a full tcpip stack and updated software. They still haven't fixed many of the existing problem (like the Amiga Explorer not working because of privleged ports below 1024.) Colanto means LAZY.

### Preseed configuration for Debian
# 1. Setup a webserver on proxmox to host this
#    copy this file to /var/www/html/preseed.cfg
# 2. Download https://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst iso
# 3. Create a proxmox vm and atach the netinst iso
# 4. Boot the VM and at Debian boot menu press escape and type the following
#    auto url=http://server/preseed.cfg

# Locale
