I tried a Slacko64 build with the latest woof-CE when at my parents for Easter on my dad's Core2Duo laptop. Here's the iso:

It seems to be working ok so far on it, I didn't need anything from puppy-common this time either. These comments also apply to it:

Quote:
- The adrv has Firefox 52.7.3esr and Abi/Gnumeric
- chose Original Pup as the default theme, and gnome-mplayer as the default music player
- kernel has firmware-140621-cut, if you are missing any drivers/functionality there's instructions on how to swap kernels here

It's working well on both new installs.

I installed it on my dualcore and it works very nice.

I also installed it on my i5 laptop.
Startup seems to hang there between loading modules and starting X. It comes through eventually. I send you xerrs.log and my system specs in case you want to look into this.
When I try to startup with the savefile, it really hangs.
I have not yet tried to switch kernels. I may go for the 4.9.30 from 01micko and see wat happens.

@Sailor - thanks for this puplet. I used your 4.4.126 kernel in LXpupsc64 18.03 - faster than 4.15 kernels, but still covered for spectre/meltdown.

@Foxpup - last time I had that happen, missing firmware was the culprit.

I switched kernel and zdrv and now it runs very nicely.
You could be right ozsouth, but I don't know which. It may be a kernel specific driver that needs compiling. Is there an easy way to know? Can I see it in some log file?

On my dualcore this slacko with the original kernel has now effectively replaced a heavily remastered Tahr 6.0.2 as my main workhorse.

Is slacko not ready for a release? Wouldn't it be nice if slacko, dpup (radky) and upupBB (peebee) released all together !?

Here the 32 bit version of Slacko 700 RC3 snapshot for testing.
Used kernel version K 4.4.70-PAE

BUILD_FROM_WOOF='testing;6d5d2531;2018-04-05 13:45:04 +0300'

Looks really good, didn't find seriously errors up to now except these blemishes

- pkeys=de will be ignored ( I'm using ISOBOOTER )
- empty tables of contents of developer tools remain in packages/builtin_files ( 0 byte files )
- menu entry xcalc present but application not installed

slacko-700-RC3_k4.4.70-PAE_2018-04-05.iso

size: 281 M
md5: 16d38a00df3318e93a979463f9d150a9

Many thanks for this great Distro

Do you answer 'y' or 'n' to the isobooter "splash screen" question?
Answering 'n' means it boots using the files in the iso rather than booting the iso itself.
Then adding boot parameters in "menu.lst" should work.

Hello gyro,
yes I'm using isobooter with "splash screen" and "menu.lst" contains already the boot parameter pkeys=de

here a snippet of my "menu.lst"
Code:
title SLACKO  32 700 RC3 K4.4.70-PAE 2017-12-10 DEVELOPMENT
partnew (hd0,3) 0x00 (hd0,0)/slacko-700-RC3_k4.4.70-PAE_2017-12-10.iso
map --heads=0 --sectors-per-track=0 (hd0,0)/slacko-700-RC3_k4.4.70-PAE_2017-12-10.iso (0xff)
map --hook
root (0xff)
kernel /vmlinuz pmedia=cd psavemark=2 pfix=ram pkeys=de
initrd /initrd.gz

title SLACKO  32 700 RC3 K4.4.70-PAE 2018-04-05 DEVELOPMENT
partnew (hd0,3) 0x00 (hd0,0)/slacko-700-RC3_k4.4.70-PAE_2018-04-05.iso
map --heads=0 --sectors-per-track=0 (hd0,0)/slacko-700-RC3_k4.4.70-PAE_2018-04-05.iso (0xff)
map --hook
root (0xff)
kernel /vmlinuz pmedia=cd psavemark=2 pfix=ram pkeys=de
initrd /initrd.gz

title SLACKO  64 700 RC3 K4.9.30
partnew (hd0,3) 0x00 (hd0,0)/slacko64-6.9.9.9-uefi-k4.9-FF-LO.iso
map --heads=0 --sectors-per-track=0 (hd0,0)/slacko64-6.9.9.9-uefi-k4.9-FF-LO.iso (0xff)
map --hook
root (0xff)
kernel /vmlinuz pmedia=cd psavemark=2 pfix=ram intel_pstate=disable pkeys=de
initrd /initrd.gz

the other versions are working without problems

Norgo, thank you for this new build. Now I have a recent slacko32 as well to test with.
I have installed yours on my dualcore PC and found it works well
I took kernel sources and devx from micko's build and compiled the 304.137 nvidia driver for my graphic card.

I use pkeys=be-latin1. It is all right on the prompt (nox) but it has to be setup again for X (be), as in most Puppies. No problem.
I install frugally by copying the Puppy files into a directory and adding lines to the menu.lst for grub4dos.

Confirmation on the other blemishes.

fixes for keymap-set and xkbconfigmanager

improve symbiotic relationship and throw xorgwizard-automatic into the mix

hopefully this fixes the pkeys= issue reported by @peabee
