I installed Carolina 1.1 to a USB Flash Drive last weekend. Everything is working smoothly. Excellent!

Just saw Carolina 1.2 is now out. I downloaded the delta file. I've never used a delta file before. I previously just download new iso to upgrade. I generated new Carolina 1.2.iso. I extracted required frugal files and replaced the 1.1 files. Booted and upgraded my save file. Everything working well.

Excellent work. Thank you.

Which one is it PAE or NON-PAE and what is the md5 for the ISO

PAE version MD5 db187f3a4a1cfef0b2c0b47d48e01a09

NON-PAE MD5 6e14a6af9ced035deb6362cfbf81c498

have you tried it in ram without a save

Posted: Sun 02 Feb 2014, 12:01
by yordanj94
Both.
md5 are correct.
First boot.
Didn't create save.
Tried also without adrv.sfs .
NON-PAE first boot O.k. made localisation to bulgarian then restart X

I tried NON-PAE did the same as you set to bulgarian then restart X.

It appears to be working for me.

Sorry to bother you and thanks for your help.
Has nothing to do with localization.I tried it again.
Even if i don't change anything,
at the first restart i got the same result.
Before that all is O.K.
May be the reason is my hardware ?
I always remove adrive.sfs because my laptop has only 512 mb.
May be is not enough ?
I used Saluki many times and got no problem.
What is strange that if i go to

/initrd/pup_ro2/root

i can see everything inside.

I tested this, I removed the adrive.sfs, then booted, restarted x and everything appears to be fine, thunar showed the contents of /root.

I have no idea what can be causing this for you, all I can suggest is if the ISO md5 checked ok NON-PAE MD5 6e14a6af9ced035deb6362cfbf81c498
then check the md5 of the extracted puppy_lina_1.2.sfs, md5 8bb7b197dcde72724a580003f62864f7

I just looked at your screenshot again, you have two mounted drives, the .gvfs refers to a remote location, did you setup the network share function? is it possible that you have an old save file that is loading.

Try this in the terminal then restartx

Code: Select all

 fusermount -u ~/.gvfs
I have a suspicion that it maybe a save on one of the partitions as it seems to be trying to mount a location that doesn't exist.

Let us know how it goes.

Hi.
Sorry for the late answer,but here was night.

if the ISO md5 checked ok


All MD5 are correct.
did you setup the network share function?
No.

is it possible that you have an old save file that is loading.


Yes.I have,but this is from Presize Puppy.Never had any problem with others Puppy.
They just ignore it.
I removed that savefile loaded Carolina restarted and again the same result.

Finally i used

fusermount -u ~/.gvfs


then restarted and it worked.

What you see on my desktop is my Live DVD .

Great.Thanks a lot.Have no idea what is the reason,but thanks for your help.

Hi.
You have to rename zdrv file other way it can be loaded.

I got the same problem i had with Carolina-1.2,
but if i use

fusermount -u ~/.gvfs

everything is fine.

Thanks for that, not sure how I missed it. I've been working on lina for at least 2 weeks, time for a break.

Up and running here. Zdrive renamed. Pristine frugal Grub4Dos boot, no stray savefiles or networked saves. As above, cannot read /root (/root/.gvfs error) until fusermount -u ~/.gvfs is run here also. No other issues so far.

Marv, what comp are you running this on, I know you've never had issues like this before. Maybe it's something new we added.
