It isn't true. Maybe you are just confused by someone who thinks porteus-boot is the best in the linux world. But even with porteus-boot you can avoid live folder name:oui wrote:on a simple PC only with hard disk, you are totaly dependant from an idiotic only one directory, "live".

Live-boot needs only live-media-path= to change live folder name to different one:

Wrong. You can do the same with DebianDog.oui wrote:you can install 100 or more Puppy without some problem, some collision in the same partition
but only one poor dog at the same time!
Wrong again. DebianDog needs the same to boot with live-boot:oui wrote:and you can't start like Puppy with only each one
- kernel
- initrd
- and pup'pipapo.sfs
01-filesystem.squashfs
vmlinuz1
initrd1.img
I agree here but this .sgn file is needed only for porteus-boot. I don't know why it is still included in DebianDog forks but I've posted the fix how to remove this .sgn file for porteus-boot a long time ago:oui wrote:and each restart, the dogs don't find but require some *.sgn file it does not find else it is present... you can't go to your breakfirst and let it do what needing: It does not continue to work and start the system! It waits for that *.sgn being present but not found!
https://github.com/MintPup/DebianDog-Wh ... d8fa9ec602Change the default .sgn fiile to initrd1.xz
The boot option sgnfile= still works to add any .sgn file name you like. But now the system boots without .sgn file in "live" folder (one file less in the iso).
DebianDog is community project now and needs only someone to apply the fix for new forked versions. I did it a long time ago for my own needs and the information is available for anyone interested from DebianDog development. BTW I would also remove the 4 empty folders (base, optional, modules, rootcopy). You can create them anytime if you need some of them.
