Ted Dog,
That's great!
Good to see usr_more.sfs getting used!

how to use usr_more.sfs ?

Ted Dog · #4 Post by **Ted Dog** » Tue 18 Oct 2005, 10:10

Same as usr_devx.sfs, copy to home directory (where pup001 is located) or to the same locale as usr_cram.fs on the DVD. For wine use, see links found in the unleshed thread. If running from windows download using IE saving to same drive as the pup001 file. version 1.05 and test versions of 1.06 will merge it in automaticly.

Worked for me too. Did it also knock 2 meg off the already (relatively) small size?

Hi. Works out of the box...
Thanks!

What if another usr_more.sfs is created? Can rc.syslinux look for ex.
after usr_*.sfs and mount them all?

I was wondering if we could get some documentation on this whole
.sfs thing. Mainly, how to extract them & make them.
EDIT: Thanks for the quick reply.

The docs are in puppy help -squashfs[url]file:///usr/share/doc/squashfs.txt[/url]

This new usr_more.sfs opens new interesting possibilities...

we can install a lot of applications in /usr with pupgets or dotpups and create a usr_more.sfs with all of them

it's easy

just do the command:

mksquashfs /root/.usr /root/usr_more.sfs

to mount it in a folder: mount -o loop usr_more.sfs folder

I will update this remaster script:

http://www.murga.org/%7Epuppy/viewtopic.php?t=1885

to do exactly this:

the changes in /usr will go to usr_more.sfs and usr_more.sfs will go to new_iso's root

the changes to /root will go to new image.gz as before

the advantage of this procedure is that the remaster process will be very fast because only /root/.usr will be mkquashed, original usr_cram.fs will not be touched

Edited: the new script was yet posted (remaster-livecd-fast.tar.gz)

Ted Dog · #12 Post by **Ted Dog** » Thu 20 Oct 2005, 21:23

Code: Select all

 mksquashfs /root/.usr /.usr_more /root/usr_more.sfs

This goes very fast on my machine. maybe a change to the way multi-sessions save and load would speed up those processes.
