Code: | apulse /opt/firefox/firefox |
Good idea. I made this change and re-posted the packages above.
According to its developer, the apulse technique may not work much longer with firefox.

Hi Fred, Backi & all,
Have a question about a 'frugal' installed Stretch-Build64-XFCE I just put on a SDcard.
It's for that mini laptop, Fred, that you helped me with a few weeks ago when I couldn't get any of the ddogs to boot on it. Then you said to use this:
Code: |
title Stretch-Build64-XFCE - live boot
root (hd0,0)
kernel /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/vmlinuz1 boot=live live-media-path=/Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/
initrd /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/initrd.img
|
...and from then all or whatever Ddogs I put on any SDcard and/or USB stick, as long as I stick to that outline, they all have booted & ran great.
My question now is this: I had been getting used to the porteus-entries for booting, but the above is a bit confusing for me. Is it possible for me to boot the above to where I am running fully in RAM and can unplug the SDcard? Want to be able to unplug that SDcard (or USB) and walk away from the mini-laptop & not worry yet the OS is still fully running in RAM (don't care about saving at all---see P.S. below).
As it stands now, with the above grub4dos entry, Thunar & the OS lock the SDcard, and prohibit me from removing it. I thought I could since I was running "live", but obviously I am misunderstanding these grub4dos boot entries again . Apologies. And thanks for any help/tips.
P.S. There's no savefile or anything in the "changes" folder....all these dogs , when I put them on an SDcard and/or USB stick, I run Remaster-DebDog64 (which still works great, btw ) and then replace the existing filsystem.squashfs with the new one created.

Hey Neil.
"..There's more to the picture. Than meets the eye....."
You mean:
Code: |
title Stretch-Build64-XFCE - live boot
root (hd0,0)
kernel /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/vmlinuz1 boot=copy2ram live-media-path=/Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/

"....They give you this, but you pay for that...."
[UPDATE-----OK, trying this now:
Code: |
title Stretch-Build64-XFCE - Copy to RAM
root (hd0,0)
kernel /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/vmlinuz1 noauto from=/ copy2ram
initrd /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/initrd1.xz
|
..hoping rock & roll will never die.....

Ok, tried this:

root (hd0,0)
kernel /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/vmlinuz1 noauto from=/ copy2ram
initrd /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/initrd1.xz
|
But I am back to that problem I had before when Fred was helping me.....it just fails as it is booting, with the message:
Code: |
^searching for stretch-x86_64.sgn file (we know it is there)
^from= cheatcode is incorrect, press enter to search through all devices
|
....then the booting process just rolls over & dies

Hey guys, you're mixing things that can't be mixed, copy2ram is exclusively for porteus-boot, for live-boot it's the "toram=..." parameter.
OK, I'll try to save you again
Belham, make your menu.lst entry this (if "01-filesystem.squashfs" is the name and is your only .squashfs in "live"):
Code: | title Stretch-Build64-XFCE - live boot
root (hd0,0)
kernel /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/vmlinuz1 boot=live live-media-path=/Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/ union=aufs toram=01-filesystem.squashfs
initrd /Stretch-Build64-XFCE/live/initrd.img |
I tested similar to this with SD card sdb1 and sdb1 isn't even mounted after boot and 01-filesystem.squashfs is in RAM (could disconnect SD card without problems), df- -h output:
Code: | root@live:~# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 997M 0 997M 0% /dev
tmpfs 202M 800K 201M 1% /run
/dev/shm 212M 207M 4.9M 98% /lib/live/mount/medium
/dev/loop0 207M 207M 0 100% /lib/live/mount/rootfs/01-filesystem.squashfs
....
