Hello!
There is this distro, Tiny Core Linux (
https://distro.ibiblio.org/tinycorelinux/): it let's you boot a tiny core
linux (duh!) on a pendrive, and read/write on the pen drive and other
devices under certain conditions. I wonder which pandoc binary may work on
such an artificial environment, to carry around on pen drives or to
refurbish some old (2005) hardware I have. Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks in advance,

Pandoc doesn't require special hardware. The normal Pandoc binaries should
work. Depending on which output formats you target, you will also have to
install extra dependencies. E.g. LaTeX is so large that it might not be
feasible on a very space-constrained system.
For a couple of months I used a Linux installed on a bootable thumb drive
as my daily driver, and didn't encounter any issues with any software. I
used normal Ubuntu though, not a stripped down distro like Tiny Core.

I am unhappy to report that, apparently, it does. The distributed Linux
binaries work on x86_64 machines, even under Tiny Core, but don't on ARM or
i386 hardware, under emulation on qemu.
I don't know how to post a request for 32 bit Linux binaries, the same way
that there are Win32 and Win64 binaries in the distro. I don't use Macs, so
I don't know what's the situation there.
Cheers,

There are 32 bit Windows binaries in the releases, so you should probably
be able to build it yourself on Linux. If your resources are limited that
may be a problem. Stack downloads and compiles a ton of stuff in the build
process and probably needs a lot of memory too. I used to be able to build
on my oldish 64 bit laptop (Ubuntu) but my setup for doing so was
(stupidly) lost when that laptop died.

bad news for me.
apparently qemu-x86_64 is broken, so I'm out of luck...

You can always spin up a build machine in the cloud, with more
resources, and then use the resulting binary on your tiny machine.

I fear I don't know how to do that; in fact, once I tried to compile pandoc
on my own, and found the whole cabal/ghc incantation overwhelming (I am no
hacker, only and advanced luser).
However, I am happy to report that, after some sort of inspiration, it
occurred to me that I didn't have to run the qemu emulator to execute the
Linux x86_64 executable on the 32 bit system and machine, if I could run
the Windoze 32 bit executable under `wine` (n.b. a compatibility layer, not
an emulator) on the Tiny Core 32 / Intelx86_32 machine. And it worked (at
least so far)!
I'm leaving this crumb for others to pick up.
Cheers!

Well: I fear this workaround does not work anymore: the wine library is a
few steps behind windows development, and the new win architecture is not
fully supported.
So, should I ask for a Linux static build for 32 bits?
Sincerely,
Luis

If you insist on running on old hardware, one way could be having a more
pandoc-compatible device on your network to use it from the older one.
Or you could even setup some kind of pandoc server; there are a few
solutions proposed when you search.
