Is there a way to graft Startmount into a live CD? I got a message saying something like "startmount can not be used in a live environment, you must install Puppy to use it"
(Sorry, that is not verbatim, it was a couple of days ago)

I would like to remaster a live CD so that it will autodetect and automount all available HDDs and usb drives, and startmount looks promising if it can be built in.

Tested on a flash install of lupu-528.005.

Same test on Slacko-5.3.3-pae. It mounts at the first try.

/tmp/bootstsinit.log wrote:
First try: mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1
Success.
Second try: mount -t ext3 /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1
mount: /dev/sdd1 already mounted or /mnt/sdd1 busy
mount: according to mtab, /dev/sdd1 is already mounted on /mnt/sdd1
Fail.


Shinobar,
Great program.
Thank you for the effort.
Enjoy reading your coding.
Good sense of organization

Works under Slacko 5.3.3 on USB Pen_Drive.
Had to manually 'find' the script, and 'permission' it, then 'exec' it. OK!

Have re-written bootstsinit.log as a sand-box script
to be a wrapper for my own dev code:

Code:


# sand-box.sh
# idea from shinobar

echo "***  `date`  ***  my_bootstsinit.log " >> /var/log/my_bootstsinit.log

mkdir -p /mnt/sdd1

echo "First try: mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1" >> /var/log/my_bootstsinit.log

mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1 && echo "Success."  >> /var/log/my_bootstsinit.log || echo "Fail."  >> /var/log/my_bootstsinit.log

echo "Second try: mount -t ext3 /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1"  >> /var/log/my_bootstsinit.log

mount -t ext3 /dev/sdd1 /mnt/sdd1 && echo "Success."  >> /var/log/my_bootstsinit.log || echo "Fail."  >> /var/log/my_bootstsinit.log

geany  /var/log/my_bootstsinit.log

Cool

I've got this message (same problem of johofman):

You are running a USB install. Ensure your session is saved for Startmount

I DO have a save file. Save Interval: 180. My puppy is 5.2.8

*************************
I'm starting from a USB flash drive.

Any help?

sh: line 5: echo: write error: Broken pipe
sh: line 5: echo: write error: Broken pipe
cat: /root/.startmount/progitem_list: No such file or directory
sh: line 5: echo: write error: Broken pipe

How to get rid of these "Broken pipe" error lines which continue and continue to be written to xerrs.log as long as the program is running?
Thank you!

Cordialement.

Startmount sda 3 : pet installed, does the job
i symlinked a lot of Qt libraries available in my linux partition sda3 to usr/lib . Previously i handly mounted sda3 when arrived to my desktop. Startmount does it during install.
Que demande le peuple ? That is fine Smile
I store the pet in my suitcase. i did'nt take time to read the eleven pages, but i am doing it.

Here is my Script to mount any drive I want to mount:
Code:
#!/bin/bash -a
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# Mount a submitted drive
# 2013-08-06 RSH for LazY Puppy
#------------------------------------------------------------------------------

drive2mnt="$1"
if [ "$drive2mnt" = "" ]; then
   echo "Need a drive to work!"
   echo "No drive (sda1, sdc3 etc.) to mount submitted!"
   exit 0
fi

# Sort out swap and mounted partitions
blkid  | egrep '(hd|sd)' | egrep -v "/dev/loop*" | egrep -v "swap" | cut -f 1 -d ':' | sed 's/\/dev\///'>/tmp/list_of_drives
sort -u /tmp/list_of_drives > /tmp/sorted_list_of_drives
mv /tmp/sorted_list_of_drives /tmp/list_of_drives
for drive in  `cat /tmp/list_of_drives`;
do
   if [ "/mnt/$drive" = "/mnt/$drive2mnt" ]; then
      mkdir -p /mnt/$drive2mnt
      if [ "`blkid /dev/$drive2mnt | grep -o "TYPE=.*" | cut -f2 -d '"'`" = "ntfs" ]; then
         mount -t ntfs /dev/$drive2mnt /mnt/$drive2mnt
         else
         mount /dev/$drive2mnt /mnt/$drive2mnt
      fi
   fi
done

exit 0


Call:

Code:
mount_a_drive sda1


to mount drive sda1.

Use this line to mount cd drives also:

Code:
blkid  | egrep '(hd|sd|sr)' | egrep -v "/dev/loop*" | egrep -v "swap" | cut -f 1 -d ':' | sed 's/\/dev\///'>/tmp/list_of_drives
