Create Debian 9 (Stretch) minimal ISO similar to DebianDog
Hi zagreb, try this .deb:

EDIT: I think you know, but anyway for info:
If you use dpkg -i from terminal it should follow with apt-get -f install, so:
P.S. Maybe you might need to install extra codecs for media playback, that I don't know of.

apt-get -f install # will force installing dependencies

It doesn't really for me, no sound on Youtube, this squashfs module of version 48 (peebee made it some time ago) works better for me:zagreb999 wrote:FRED, THANKS!
IT WORKS GREAT...

At least sound on Youtube (with flashplayer installed)
Only one library is missing for me, libatomic1, so I installed it:
Code: Select all
apt-get install libatomic1

fred,
how to

Re: replace openbox with xfwm4
I have no knowledge about that, I thought xfwm4 is for the most useful as part of xfce4, but maybe it can be used as a sort of standalone (with some other components added, e.g. a panel etc...), you need to experiment with that, I guess.zagreb999 wrote:regards

Hi zagreb999,
As an alternative to replacing openbox, you might be able to just add xfce4-panel to it, perhaps building the later as a squashfile. Following a hint from fred, that's what I did under some Puppies.
As far as I can recall --and this without the greater ability to pull in dependencies provided by apt or synaptic-- all I did was select for 'download with all dependencies' one component of the panel which pulled in almost all the other components. I later had to add 'exo-utils' and, I think, the Whisker Menu plugin. You'll recall that the basic Puppy employs JWM which does not use 'exo-utils'. Openbox as window-manager may already use.

I followed the procedure and my brother printer works but now synaptic is broken because I think /lib32 is not in the system path:rcrsn51 wrote:Installing Brother printers in Stretch-Live-64bit
Brother does not supply 64bit versions of their printer drivers. Instead, you are required to install a 32bit compatibility package. Here is a light-weight solution:
1. Download the brother-printer-32bit-compat-stretch64_1.1.deb. It contains JUST the 32bit libraries required by the Brother driver.
<cut>
Code: Select all
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
You might want to run 'apt --fix-broken install' to correct these.
The following packages have unmet dependencies:
cupswrapperhl2130:i386 : Depends: libc6:i386 (>= 2.3.4-1) but it is not installable
hl2130lpr:i386 : Depends: libc6:i386 (>= 2.3.4-1) but it is not installable
E: Unmet dependencies. Try 'apt --fix-broken install' with no packages (or specify a solution)
If I run "apt --fix-broken install" it uninstall the printer. How to fix this? I tried to run ldconfig with no luck.
I suspect that the problem is NOT with the compatibility pack, but with the Brother 32bit debs themselves.
Try this: Start with a clean setup. Install just the two Brother debs. Then check with synaptic. Do you have the same problem?
At the Brother website, they have their own solutions to installing their drivers into a 64bit system. IIRC, one of them didn't work in Stretch and the other required a massive download.
[Edit] I think that I understand the problem.
Some old Brother driver debs have libc6 as a dependency in their Control file. Newer models don't have this and they install fine.
So you need to rebuild the two .deb files and fix this.
1. Left click on the deb. This extracts it into a folder with the same name.
2. In the Debian subfolder, open the Control file. Delete the Depends line.
3. Rebuild the deb file with: dpkg-deb -b <name of deb folder>
4. Then install the two debs with the original instructions.

The libc.so.6 32 bit is required by the postinstall script of lpr driver breaking synaptic even with the hack of the control file. I give up. I maintain my printer working with the printer-driver-brlaser v3 driver.rcrsn51 wrote: Some old Brother driver debs have libc as a dependency in their Control file.

Are you talking about the file hl2130lpr-2.1.0-1.i386.deb?watchdog wrote:The libc.so.6 32 bit is required by the postinstall script of lpr driver breaking synaptic even with the hack of the control file. I give up. I maintain my printer working with the printer-driver-brlaser v3 driver.
Starting with a clean install, I hacked the control file, loaded it with dpkg --force-all and checked synaptic.
I saw no problems.
From this thread
If you're trying to make a live-USB, similar to a live-CD, the system will always boot into read-only. There are ways around that using a second partition for persistence. If that's what you want, you should take a look at the debian-live documentation. You could build your own live system using live-build, and create either an iso image or a usb-hdd image.
http://live.debian.net/
Another option is to use Refracta Snapshot. You could install the deb files in your virtualbox installation and create a bootable iso that's a copy of your system, with all your customizations and settings. And you could use refracta2usb to put that iso onto a bootable usb thumb drive. You'll probably need to install some dependencies, like squashfs-tools, live-boot, live-config, live-config-sysvinit, and live-boot-initramfs-tools. See comments in the config file (/etc/refractasnapshot.conf) for using a custom iso directory. (You probably want the boot menu to say "Debian" instead of "Refracta".)
http://sourceforge.net/projects/refracta/files/tools/
If you don't want a live-media system, you could just install debian to the usb stick the way you'd install to a hard drive. Then it will boot read/write. Since the system isn't compressed into a squashfs, it'll take up more space on the stick.

I'm not sure why you posted it here?
Obviously, Saintless and Fred have come up with several different (much better??) ways than the ways suggested in that 5 year old post than using a persistence partition or Refracta (whatever that is).
Who are you replying to and what are you trying to say??????
also, delete (square brackets deleted by me) from your message

Some post just anything hereabouts in Puppy Projects ... and leave it for John Murga to decide whether it should be pulled or not (personally I suspect he has far better things to be doing). Some of us find non "Puppy Projects" posts to be annoying - most boards disallow such off topic posts, but as that's widely abused here might as well jump in and .... this might be of interest to some ...dancytron wrote:Who are you replying to and what are you trying to say??????

Hi All, some news and updates:
- New kernel package version available from Debian repo: 4.9.88-1+deb9u1 (linux-image-4.9.0-6), upgrading can be done on a frugal install by running "upgrade-kernel"
The mklive-stretch script doesn't need to be updated for that because the kernel version number is still 4.9.0-6.
- New peasywifi package (v4.6-1), rcrsn51 changed the button "Connect" (at the dialog that appears after "Scan") to "OTC".
This means "One time connect" (wpa2 only) to be able to connect without having to make a Profile first.
(it will probably avoid some confusion there was earlier)
- New package I made for display of detailed system information: "inxi-gui", taken from antiX, original by Misko_2083, modified a little for StretchDog, Stretch-live. (see screenshot)
Install inxi-gui with synapic or apt-get (first update the packages lists; apt-get update)
After install, run from Menu > System > System Info (inxi-gui).
The "inxi" commandline script is included in /usr/local/bin, which is a perl script, so the package has perl as dependency.
EDIT: Also updated in repos the "hplip-print-scan" packages (32 and 64 bit) to version 3.18.3, thanks again rcrsn51 !
