No, this happens very early in the boot process, I have described it in the thread Dpup: Squeezed Puppy 4.99.2 bug reports and feedback. I have had the same experience with other puppies too.'f00 wrote:@tallboy ..Oh yeah, that evil red RAMFULL towards the end of bootext?
This is a sqzd4-99-2 multisession CD-R, containing only two small saves, and I wanted to prevent the latest from loading, using the 'puppy pfix=1' boot message.
Loading drivers needed to access disk drives.................................done
Folder 2011-06-11-03-19 marked bad.............................................done
Loading the 'puppy_sqzd_4.99.2.sfs' main file... copying to ram......done
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempt to kill init!
And then everything freezes, nothing happens except for 'Caps lock' and 'Scroll lock' diodes start blinking on my keyboard, and I have to physically turn off the pc. I can boot sqzd_4.99.2 normally from the CD, without using any boot message, after starting the PC again. I haven't tried with option 'puppy pfix=ram', which prevent all saves from loading, it may act differently. I shall try it later and report back.
