The reason for the problem was just a broken RAM. I had to think about it earlier.

In this case, the second reading would not be correct.

Would a temporary hardware error in the SATA port create a log entry?

In the meantime I tested a lot. Results:

• The difference between source and destination hard drives results from reading the destination drive. (Evidence: First error reading, second correct reading without new writing.)
• While the error occurs, there is no report in /var/log/messages

Any ideas?

Wait a minute. You're comparing the entire contents of one hard disk drive with those of another, possibly larger or smaller drive? What makes you think the swap partition has anything to do with the md5sum difference? If the two drives are not exactly the same, I would expect a difference in their...

google swapoff Still comparison error! Could be another reason. I have tested with other hard drives and other ports with md5sum. md5sum is stable, but not identical in source and destination disks. I have used Puppy in an older version for years without any problems, until the USB stick was broken...

This solution assumes you are using a savefile. 1) Go to /etc/rc.d and make a new directory called "Backup" 2) Move the /etc/rc.d/rc.network file to the /etc/rc.d/Backup directory 3) Reboot Plausible suggestion, but does not work. I have tested variants: Not moved to the subfolder, but to...

Thank you. Probably the solution. I will test it.

Puppy linux never installs anything unless you tell him to, including security updates. Yes, but I think I have no security problem without network access and can do without updates. You can block network in many ways. Configuring Linux firewall to block connection is one of them. Easier one would ...

So you cloned the hard drive including the swap partition? If you use the cloned hard drive and its swap partition is mounted, the contents of the swap partition might be changed somehow. That would be normal and expected. I do not use the cloned disks intentionally, but use a separate system (Pupp...

Yes. And after using, both hard drives are not identical any more.

Hello,

I want to use xenialpup64 for a longer period of time without installing security updates. To be sure, I want to block network access. If I lock the network via the taskbar, it will be active again after a reboot.

How can I permanently block network access?

Hello,

I use Xenialpup64 for only one script: Hard disk cloning and the following comparison.

Now I have comparison errors and I suspect Xenialpup64 uses the swap partition of the hard drives that are being cloned.

How can I ban the use of swap partitions?

Yes, but /dev/sd.. is not stable. It depends from the order of connect or power on. In opposite, "by-path" has a invariant relation to the main board connector.

Hi wawi. The script to be executed, must be in the executable path, if you place the script - or a link to it - in ~/my-applications/bin/, it should run. Yes, but outside from this PATH is it possible with ./ example.sh My problem was to start a script AND the console with one click - and we have t...

Hello,

there are in Precise 5.4.3 a fixed addressing like /dev/disk/by-path?

Normally, udev create this link. udev is installed out of the box, but I don't find /dev/disk/by-path. It is nice to have for cloning hard discs.

Hello Flash, I tested both: musher's result is only another icon, but rcrsn51 has the perfect solution. It works also, the script in the Startup folder to run automatically. And, of course, it is possible, to split the script in two parts with exec rxvt-e sh / ... / Script.txt in the first. I though...

Thanks for the welcome. It was a misunderstanding. I do not want a beautiful icon, but a icon of the desired functionality: Clicking on it should start the console start my script in the console. I am also interested on the way to my script in a console to start immediately after boot. (Place the sc...

Hi,

how can I generate an icon that launches the console with my bash script?
