sed can do several commands, one after the other, so shouldn't need to pipe into it twice. I think this should work (though haven't tried it):

Hi all, I just wanted, as a user & neophyte builder, to say "thank you" to Fred and all of you (Peebee, rcrsn51, Toni, wiak, jd and apologies if I missed anyone). Every time I think you guys can't improve the script, it improves. And the same goes for all the build suggestions.....I gave one try of Peebee's build configuration he posted awhle back for his lxdd & my first thoughts upon seeing it boot up was: "dang, how'd he do that? And, man, my builds stink!".  Then Fred clued me in reading his msg awhile back what Peebee did, so am trying to learn. This all is just great stuff. Also, I saw Toni posted in "HOW TO" section an easy way to rename all my frugal install's "live" folders, thus keeping better track and also ending any boot confusion by making myself stick to "psubdir=", something I already do for all pups.
Anyway, thanks to you all again. Going to give the latest additions to the script a go tonight! |

Yes, thanks for reporting. It's because /var/cache/apt/archives/ doesn't exist When using apt-get it's OK, but Synaptic doesn't like it Fixed now by creating chroot/var/cache/apt/archives/ in the script Important bug fix mklive-stretch script (right-click > Save link as and make executable) Fred _________________ Dog Linux website Tinylinux blog by wiak |

Even better. I just tacked that on to the end of the line to show the minimum change to workaround apt2sfs failure. Never did find root cause. Saw a bunch of unprotected variables, but not sure exactly where the "=" sign was causing script to choke. That was just one workaround, there may be better. I leave it to Fred to fix how he sees fit. |

No need to apologize. Finding bugs is part of the development process. By logrotate option, you mean when you log off it asks if you want to get rid of all the old logs? So, to get full Debian Dog functionality, including the logrotate, I should include porteusbootscripts in the mklive script? Do you really mean I should install version 0.0.3 and not the newest one? I'll test all of this today or tomorrow. Thanks |

With the latest script, the stuff in the firmware field isn't installing. I tried cli and setup file cli. I believe the line with firmware is missing at line 280 of the script. I changed it to
What I changed is under lined and bold. Probably won't get a chance to test it tonight. Dan |

Hi All, I'm not sure if this falls under the heading "Buying into problems before they materialize" or "Reading the Writing on the Wall and Preparing to meet an unavoidable problem". Short version: As far as I can tell, grub4dos is no longer maintained. The last version on the Puppy Linux Forum was created in 2014. Although it has support for Linux Ext4, it is unable to boot operating systems from drives formatted as 64 bit Linux Ext4. See the following problems which have recently surfaced trying to boot Puppies: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=964862#964862 http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=111371. See, in particular, jd7654's analysis of what works, and what doesn't. http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=965267#965267 mikesLr |

Hi Dan,
It's just what you'd prefer. Because the scripts for porteus-boot are already included in the build by default, there's no need to install porteusbootscripts package. But if you really prefer the logrotating at shutdown (it's only included in version 0.0.3) then you can add porteusbootscripts=0.0.3 to the install list for the build and the default included scripts will be overwritten with the 0.0.3 files.
Yes, that's right! When using GUI there's no problem (exported earlier in script) but with CLI it was, fixed now. Bug fix, was missing export FIRMWARE="$FIRMWARE" mklive-stretch script (right-click > Save link as and make executable) Fred Last edited by fredx181 on Wed 23 Aug 2017, 05:57; edited 1 time in total |

A workaround would be to edit /etc/mke2fs.conf to how it used to be in "older" systems. The Stretch-Live build (also Stretchdog and Trinitydog-Stretch) has that workaround included, btw. See for how to modify mke2fs.conf : http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=959397#959397 EDIT: This post from jd7654 gives info about converting the filesystem back to "non'64-bit" (once it's already formatted that way, where I wrote about 'workaround' above is to prevent formatting as 64-bit) http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=965277#965277 Fred Last edited by fredx181 on Wed 23 Aug 2017, 10:50; edited 2 times in total |

Hi Mike, Uhhh, what?  Fyi, I have mutliple hard drives (from IDE to SATA I,II & III, internal and external), and all of them, save for one, is governed by grub4dos (the other one had grub2). Here's the thing: all those other drives? They are all formatted, inside pups, 64-bit ext4, and grub4dos is then next installed.
Grub4dos even handles my drive that is specifically targetted to rpm distros. On that one, I am booting manjaro, openSUSE, antergos, pclinuxOS and Fedora......all S.O.B. distros that are finicky & picky as heck since some require require separate boot/home partitions to function well. [corrected & edited to say this sems to be something that only applies to to absolute newer gpt/uefi systems out there, if that. As noted in my other thread, it's strange though I've GPT going on with two of my drives] HTH Last edited by belham2 on Wed 23 Aug 2017, 06:12; edited 2 times in total |

Hi Fred, What workaround? I format everything inside either pups and/or ddogs, and it is ALWAYS 64-bit, and then I immediately install grub4dos next. I've never had a problem yet with anything......wondering what in heck you guys are even talking about here 
[EDIT: ok, I see what Mike and you are talking about---there is a huge "qualifier" in what you're saying: As JD noted in his other thread, with his "how-To", there is only an issue when trying to use Grub4DOS with newer systems with 64-bit Ext4 partitions. Since I don't use newer systems, no worries here. Strange though I have GPT going on to 2 of my ext4 formatted drives, using gparted inside pups, and I've no problems] |
