Why in the hell should anyone do such?quantumbox wrote:I have installed bionicdog with openbox wm, can I replace the squashfs file with the one from the cinnamon ISO file? can this damage the system?
Yes, this is what I mean, because so many had to be installed. Now, I have already install with fresh save folder, install everything, compile gimp and dependency, etc. But now I have missing volume control. I've try PulseAudio Volume Control, but it seems not respondingfredx181 wrote:That depends, probably you mean when using existing save storage ?quantumbox wrote:I have installed bionicdog with openbox wm, can I replace the squashfs file with the one from the cinnamon ISO file? can this damage the system?
With existing savefile (or folder) used with openbox, I'm almost sure that it won't work properly, but when starting with fresh save it should be OK (if you use 64-bit, cinnamon version is 64-bit only)

Thanks.
Thanks, yes, for more clarity, if you get that "trying to overwrite" errors (or something like that) do not remove the man and doc folders in /usr/share, remove the files inside, this way:quantumbox wrote:Like mike said, adding 32 bit architecture,westwest wrote:Hi, is there an equivalent to puppy's "32-bit compatibility sfs" for BionicDog64?

dpkg --add-architecture i386
apt-get update
but you will facing a problem with overwriting /usr/share/doc and /usr/share/man. I resolve this by deleting all inside those folder. it's true this will use some space, but not much
Code: Select all
find /usr/share/doc -type f -exec rm -f {} \;
find /usr/share/man -type f -exec rm -f {} \;
find /usr/share/info -type f -exec rm -f {} \;
find /usr/share/gnome/help -type f -exec rm -f {} \;
find /usr/share/gtk-doc -type f -exec rm -f {} \;I finally got around to installing this Cinnamon version to a USB drive a while back, and wanted to mention a few things I had made a note of - before I forget (yet AGAIN... oops...fredx181 wrote:*** BionicDog 64-bit Cinnamon version ***

Would I be correct in assuming that you started by burning the downloaded ISO image to optical media?1) While booted/running from the BionicDog Cinnamon liveCD,........
Yikes - it was a while ago so I'm not entirely sure, but yes - burned the .iso image to a CD, mostly likely using Brasero on Ubuntu 18.04 Mate.ETP wrote:Would I be correct in assuming that you started by burning the downloaded ISO image to optical media?
If so, what OS and burning app did you use to do that?

As I understand you booted from CD without problems and used the frugal installer (BionicDog-Frugal-Install) from Menu to install to USB.
My guess is that something went wrong with copying 01-filesystem.squashfs by the installer.
I'll try to reproduce within the next days.

Yes - this indeed seems to be the case. I just did a fresh download/burn onto a CD-R from a newly purchased batch (Memorex), and all is now well - with a fully booting and functioning USB flash drive frugal install (with the formerly missing BionicDog-Frugal-Install .desktop file & menu entry now back and working).ETP wrote:It very much sounds as though there was some corruption when the main sfs was burnt which was not evident
initially but subsequently impacted when you attempted to install to a USB stick.
