SFStray
Thanks I could test that one on some other puppy than the one it is already installed on now and which I use daily for everything. Don't want to risk messing up that one.
But would be cool if many test the set up. it sure looks nice having such a "Dock" like thing popping up and one can click on the icons and get instant load and then unload when one shut it down. So handy

not an ideal solution though

I test this one now in Midnightsun puppy I get back within a 30 minutes maybeseaside wrote:nooby,
I've changed SFStray so that if no directory is specified on the command line, it defaults to look only in the /root and /mnt directories. This should cut out all those extra entries .
Sorry you had those difficulties and thanks for giving me good feedback.

Sorry long delay. It failed to find a single sfs file. So like L18L also indicate here above my post something fails. Apart from it works good.
I asked pemasu about Midnight Sun Puppy and he told me it is very close to Lupu525 and it did not show any result.
I copied from the one I had in Snow puppy 5 so I have workings ones now but the program itself did not any SFS.
Maybe one should have the unloader too just in case. Sometimes the program fail to unload.

extra protection?
Seaside, somewhere in the depths of your code...
I think I can reconstruct a total WIPEOUT scenario with this code, but I need to find my dusty AMD for this test...
The rm line needs so much more protection.
Code: Select all
while read P; do
SFSFILE=`grep "$P" /tmp/proglist`
mkdir /mnt/"$P"
mount -t squashfs "$SFSFILE" /mnt/"$P" -o loop
...
umount /mnt/"$P"
rm -r /mnt/"$P"
done < $HOME/.SFStray/sfstray_list
The rm line needs so much more protection.
Here's one wipeout version:
When you hit the Add button while nothing is selected (or there are no SFS files in the required dir) it creates a non-empty "empty" sfstray_list, and when you hit Apply it sends all writable mounted media down the toilet.
@nooby: Stop experimenting until a few code lines are changed.
@seaside: Unmount everything except some unneeded partition(s) if you try the above.
Code: Select all
add() {
echo -e "$APP" >> $HOME/.SFStray/sfstray_list
}

your sfs dirloader 4 not working in 5 series ?
Hi seaside,
I liked your sfs dir loader in 4 series a lot
http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=44601
Could you tell me how to get it to work in 5 series ?
Thanks in advance.

While we wait for seaside to find this thread.
I use it on Snow puppy 5 which is Lupu13 sort of.
It all dependends on how one use it. It has some clitches that one can learn to live with. Not fool proof. Safest is to go through the Menu and not do right click which sometimes shuts down the xorg.
I 've also tested his SFStray not as easy to set up. So try SFS dir first
I use it on Frugal install on NTFS.

Thank you for pointing out that scenario. I've added the following code with an exit to ensure that doesn't happen.
Code: Select all
umount /mnt/"$P"
STATUS=$?
[ $STATUS -ne 0 ] && yaf-splash -font "8x16" -outline 0 -margin 4 -bg orange -text "FAILURE! $P could not unmount - Perhaps files are still in use or no directory was specified" && exit
Thanks again for catching that possibility.
