Thanks, I have made a note of these problems and will investigate.doggone wrote:First time poster, so be kind. I'm a looker, not a poster. Also, poor typer and old, almost 78.
Been playing with EasyLinux_0.2 since it was released. Every thing works as expected except 2 things for me. These haven't been mentioned by anyone yet so I'll give it a try.
1st CUPS is broken. The browser can not find localhost:631.
2nd Remaster Easy Linux. The dialog boxes are easy to follow and ever thing worked fine except the final q.sfs has 3 directories re-root, re-ect, and re-var incorrectly named. I tried to rename these with EDIT-SFS.pet but the resulting q.sfs was to large to fit in the image file. The origional modified q.sfs was 468M. The file edited with EDIT-SFS.pet ended up 579M, to large to fit in the image (said it run out of space). I then tried it manually with unsquashfs and mksquashfs with the -comp xz option. The result was size of 486M and this was larger than the origional but still fit into the image file. From here I was able to copy the image to a jump drive and the new remaster easylinux booted, configured the jump drive and worked just fine.
That's all I have. Waiting for Easy Linux that I can install to a HD partition.
Regarding the remaster script, I rewrote it for Easy, but never got around to actually testing it. Good to know that it is almost OK.
