Wrapping that puppy up for USB-setup

#1 Post by LeFish »

Hi!

I have been trying to accomodate myself with puppy a little bit over the past weeks. My intentions are to create a clean OS just for my work with blender and yafray. And, in the near future creating an OS for rendering machines within a renderfarm.


What I achieved after some struggling was, to get the software running: blender, yafray, and whatever else is needed.

I am working with empty crust.

Yesterday I was wanting to actually make a bootup USB-Flash with my newly created system (for the rendering machines).

The Rendering-Puppy has the following filesizes:

image.gz: 6,5mb
usr_cram.fs: 48mb

I tried to run the alienx-script with success! The abbove files and the vmlinuz were created.

Then I tried to run the "Install Puppy to USB"-script, using the files created by the alienx-script.

This however did not work.

The image.gz is always looking for a usr_cram.fs ON CD(!!!). It loads nicely, if there is a usr_cram on cd, otherwise it says it cannot find one and thus cannot start the x-server.

Is there a possibility to fix this link, leading to an unwanted source for usr_cram.fs? How do I achieve this? What did I do wrong?

Hi LeFish; I assume your using 2.14? (always tell us what version your using)

The boot paramater PMEDIA MUST be set to: usbflash

I'm guessing that yours is still set to: idecd
