Yeah, I was impressed too, I thought I'd compile it and see if was as good as claimed, works extremely well.666philb wrote:Geoffrey wrote: SmillaEnlarger a brilliant image enlarger.

I've never tried a full install as I don't use them, hmmm, I see you have Saluki listed as one of your distro's, does it do a full install, if not then jemimah made it that way as it's meant to be frugal with a adrive.johnywhy wrote:unable to do a full hd install.

Strange that after all this time full install has never been mentioned, there are no plans to as Carolina is based on Saluki, but if a full install is a option in Saluki then there is a bug, can anyone verify this?

Yeah, it appears to skip the chooser, might take me awhile to sort this, never had to deal with this type of problem before, but if you only want to do a full install just to remaster I still think the editing of the sfs files is a betterway, if you look in the installed packages files you can see what needs to be removed, in the extracted adrive you'll find them in adrv_lina_1.3/root/.packages/builtin_files.johnywhy wrote:if it helps-- i get to a screen that says "since this is a frugal install" etc...Geoffrey wrote:Ah ok, it seems Saluki does do a full install, I'll try and find the problem with that.

Seamonkey Update
Will I break anything if I run the 2.33 update to Seamonkey as found on their site?
FYI: It has gtk2 in the name.
Thanks!

lost desktop after upgrade
I lost the desktop after an upgrade to 1.3. It flashes about five times and then gives up.
Looking for solutions, I found this to type in terminal.
# xfdesktop
got this response
(xfdesktop:15191): GLib-GIO-CRITICAL **: g_file_get_path: assertion `G_IS_FILE (file)' failed
Segmentation fault
Also tried the Xfcepowertools panic button to no avail.
Can anyone help me?

That url is for elroy's lina-lite based on carolina-005. Carolite is not as stripped down and is based on a much newer version.johnywhy wrote:is carolite still available? i don't see it here:

Thx for that! Newer is good, but 'not as stripped down' = not as good 137 MB not so 'lite'.
a PAE would be cool, but happy to try the non.

Carolite lighter
Hi johnywhy,
I don't currently have Carolite on my Grub4dos menu, and the last version I ran was Carolite 1.1. [1.2 was the last published version]. But I saved the 1.1 ISO and just mounted and examined it.
Within my Carolite ISO is adrv_lina_1.1.sfs. It weighs in at 40 mbs. As I recall, Carolite can be booted to desktop without the adrv: just delete it, or better still, move it to a folder where it won't be picked up by the boot process. Puppies will generally only look to the root of a partition/drive and one folder down. Carolinas generally are built so that "core" applications --those needed to boot at all-- are in the puppy_lina...sfs, while user applications are in the advr_...sfs.
Removing adrv leaves you with a bootable ISO about the same size as 'lina-lite. And, of course, among the "core" applications you still will have are ppm (to download pets), SFS-builder (to download and build SFSes) and custom-builder (to download and build your own adrv).
Of course, you can do the same with any Carolina. [Carolina-1.3 is just over 100 mbs without adrv].

thx for that!
i cannot find much info about the adrv-- is it's purpose to hold non-core application? ie "application drive"?

Yes, it contains non-core apps. Carolite main sfs is about 6mb lighter than Carolina and can boot to a functional desktop without the adrive.johnywhy wrote:thx for that!

but a carolina without adrv is going to be a more recent puppy, right? seems a smarter choice, for a mere 6MB.rg66 wrote:Carolite main sfs is about 6mb lighter than Carolina and can boot to a functional desktop without the adrive.
