Maybe it will show some error.

It will show something like this if it is working correctly.
In this example the sfs's are on sdc3 /mnt/home

Code: Select all

root# sfs_load
sfs_load: debug: PUPHOME=/mnt/home;
sfs_load: debug: SFSMODE=y, DESTPART=sdc3, DESTDIR=/mnt/home;
sfs_load: debug: loadable_sfs_list

Code: Select all

root# sfs_load 
sfs_load: debug: Using /usr/bin/gtkdialog4.
sfs_load: debug: SUPPORTSIG=green, SFSMODE=y, DESTPART=sda4, DESTDIR=/mnt/home;
sfs_load: debug: MAXEXTRANUM=0
sfs_load: debug: loadable_sfs_list 
sfs_load: debug: EXIT="abort"
/usr/sbin/sfs_load: line 847: 20094 Terminated              $GTKDIALOG -p DIALOG -c > /dev/null
sfs_load: --stop

This part of your posted results is normal. It is just info about closing the program.

Code: Select all

/usr/sbin/sfs_load: line 847: 20094 Terminated              $GTKDIALOG -p DIALOG -c > /dev/null
sfs_load: --stop 

This is what I get in a working Tahrpup64 6.0.6

Code: Select all

root# sfs_load
sfs_load: debug: PUPHOME=/mnt/home;
sfs_load: debug: SUPPORTSIG=green, SFSMODE=y, DESTPART=sdc6, DESTDIR=/mnt/home;
sfs_load: debug: loadable_sfs_list 
sfs_load: debug: FILE1=""
UNLOADSFS=""
EXIT="Abort"
I am just giving you ideas to try.
When you start SFS-Load-on-the-fly it does say it is V3.0?

Look at the contents of the save by left clicking on it in Rox file manager.
Navigate to /usr/sbin in the save.
There should be nothing there about sfs_load.
If there is delete it.

The easy fix is to replace the bad save with the good working backup save, we know you made earlier :!: :lol:

Tracking down a cure, for a broken Puppy save, is a deep hunt, in the deep tangled Puppy OS file system. Never know what you will find or how you will find it!
The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.
When I was a kid I wanted to be older.... This is not what I expected :shock:
