Fatdog64-630 & 631 Final (May 12 2014)

[smokey01]

I got from system info that my kernel is 3.12.9.
But in sfs manager I couldn't find its kernel source sfs.
There are sfs for 3.11.4 and 3.8.7.
Could anyone tell me where to find it.
Thanks in advance...

Thanks Smokey,
I will download it n report back.

Hmm.. 99mb this will take almost 2hrs on my android's slow 2G net connection

Hi all,
I like FD64_630 and this forum !

In FD64 i've found some clone/partition tools (gparted, ntfsclone ...)
My favorite tool "clonezilla" is missing, but perhaps i can load/install a working PET/SFS.
Is there a ready package out, i can't find it anywhere.

THX in advance.

[neerajkolte]

Thanks Snokey.
I downloaded kernel-source-3.12.9.sfs and loaded it.
now when I run "/etc/init.d/vboxdrv" setup it again say failed. And log file reads as....

I don't have expertise to interpret that. (In plain text "It all went over my head")

Any idea what should I do next....

[smokey01]

You should be able to start vbox from the menu under system.

There should also be a script in /usr/local/bin/vbox:

!/bin/sh
depmod
/etc/init.d/vboxdrv start
VirtualBox &

Try this script. It also might be worth a reboot if it doesn't run.

Good luck.

I downloaded kernel-source-3.12.9.sfs and loaded it.

This is how I did install Virtual Box . Loaded the 32-bit sfs , devx sfs and kernel source sfs then used the script from the attachment ( thank's to Jamesbond) while beeing connected to internet . In the end I unloaded the devx and kernel source sfs .

[nooby]

I really want this to work on my latest Laptop.
But I am too afraid to fail because if I fail it takes
many days or weeks to recover due to my too
overly sensitive.psychologic body system.

No luck... There is nothing named vbox in /usr/local/bin

Gonna try Gobbi's suggestion.
I have downloaded the script (Thanks Jamesbond).
I have a question though...
I have opened the script as text what I think it does is...
Use wget to find out what is the latest version of virtualbox and downloads its 64bit version(it looks for V.*_amd64.run).
So why should I need 32bit sfs???

I have started 32 bit sfs download anyway, should be ready in 20min.

This is really off topic but tomorrow is Holi (festival of colours) in India.

I am gonna be drenched in many colours from head to toe.

I just wanna wish you all my friends Happy Holi,
May your life be filled with colours.

Frugal install Fatdog64-630 on usb flash drive.

Base install seems to work fine.

Installed ati-catalyst-14.1b-FD630-HD5000-and-up.pet


The ATI Catalyst Control Center that tells me I am using a Radeon HD 6310.

glxinfo and glxgears gives error messages.

Thanks Gobbi, Smokey01, Jamesbond.

I the script Gobbi gave it showed message as downloading. But no progress bar of wget. I don't know where to look for it. Due to my slow net connection it stopped and exited after 1hr with only 12mb file virtualbox-4.3.8-92456-Linux_amd64.run downloaded in temp folder.

So I downloaded the file directly from virtualbox website on my android and also downloaded extension pack for it, transferred them to my pc.

Installed virtualbox by just clicking on that .run file.
Now virtualbox manager starts from menu entry.
also I quickly cerated Precise Puppy machine and it boots OK.
Now going to try win7 64bit.

Just want to know if I start my fatdog with no savefile and install virtualbox and save multisession, later rename the savefile as a virtualbox.sfs will its loading unloading work as other sfs files?

Hi @Neerajkolte

... Just want to know if I start my fatdog with no savefile and install virtualbox and save multisession, later rename the savefile as a virtualbox.sfs will its loading unloading work as other sfs files?

This is a very good and interesting question. It suggests that FATDOG can be booted pristine, then sometime after desktop start, this SFS can be loaded to make system current from its last use of the SFS. Then, at some point, maybe, this SFS during end of session can be updated and saved for future use in same-similar manner. Very interesting and logical thought.

It never occurred to me until just now, that this is probably what @JamesBond viewed when he introduced this save-session approaches we see at Bootmanager starts.

My gut feel is "yes you can", but, I feel something might be missing in my view.

Need the xserver.pet to pair up the changes. install the xserver first, reboot. May take two reboot cycles for the correct setting to apply..

[Ted Dog]

yes sfs multisession saves can be renamed and used much like a regular sfs. My trick is to set everything up. Compile until make install. Then force a save session prior to install.. That is my building and or source saved.. Then make install...
Play with it config etc then force a save session again that is my finished sfs to rename.. kinda sloppy but simple...
not good for mass distribution may also have other stuff saved with it.. But for family and friends a quick and recoverable method..

Also those sfs seem to work fine in Slacko64.... win win

[nooby]

FatDog Devs have explained "all" about the save file in the FAQ
for Fatdog. I had this one first time and then changed to the
second example after all was set up and a savefile created.

Code: Select all

title FatDog64 No save file 
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
kernel /fd64/vmlinuz savefile=none
initrd /fd64/initrd 



title FatDog64 with save file after using the above to boot first. 
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
kernel /fd64/vmlinuz savefile=direct:device:sda1:/fd64save.ext3
initrd /fd64/initrd

Changed to different xserver., works now.

I was able to get a LXC sandbox to setup a network bridge. Yeah! The instructions I followed were at https://wiki.debian.org/LXC/SimpleBridge which worked almost word for word once I figured out the meaning of the parameters.

The isolation appears much higher than CHROOT, to the extent that proc, devices, and networks are also sandboxed. Still playing with it.

Can I install fatdog on android device based on Telechips Processor ? If yes then how can I flash rom with fat dog.

[nooby]

If it is the same ARM CPU version that they use
if not then you have to learn compiling from the
sources?











cpu vrif not then you are on your own
having to compile the code from sources.

The CPU you name does it not have a ARM number tile ARM 10
or similar.

Got A little too brave and tried to setup the illogical mix mode harddrive. My USB flashdrives seem to work fine. But once my laptop windows8.1 got into game it self destructed after a day of wasted effort. Windows got stuck in Automatic Repair Mode. And loop and looped for ever.

I am guessing that is why nobody recommends doing this... lessons learnt.
