Multisession Puppy won't save sessions
Multisession Puppy won't save sessions
I was using mulitsession with a DVD-RW, but whenever I shut down, I only get an error telling me that it was unable to save to my mulitsession dvd. I sighed and rebooted into puppy linux, only to find that it wouldn't start into the mulitsession distro, but the normal live CD mode, where it wanted me to set it up again, and it wouldn't let me use my pup001 file on hda1. Anyone know what to do?
DVD-RW workaround
The save-to-DVD script has issues with RW disks, the use of an alternet script found here -> http://www.murga.org/~puppy/viewtopic.php?t=4897 will prep a RW DVD for use with shutdown scripts usable since v1.06
Burn2ISO wasn't working?
Try to setup DVD wizard to point to the DVD-burner, Sony DVD-R are some of the best made ( O.K. they are the best, however, I'm boycotting Sony for 9 more months) , I never had a problem with that brand. However, if you have a newer drive / DVD-R that are fast. You could have a 'too new' error I have read those disks do not like to be burned at slow speeds, Burn2ISO limits burns to X4 speed.
try from a terminal.
where puppy.iso is the path/file you wish to burn. There must NOT be any spaces around the = sign. That will read the burn speed from the disc and adjust if able.
