Hi, I use the build script provided by SALIX for build the both releases of grub2 (1.97.2 and 1.98) on the Slackware 13.0 Linux Box. I try the both releases (reset the salixlive partition before all run with mkdosfs) : - 1.97.2 release : boot with splash screen - 1.98 release : no boot with grub err...

I use the correct syntax when I do the test, /dev/sdX1 is used with mkdosfs and /dev/sdX when I re-ran grub-install on Slackware. It's a mistake when I write the post :oops: I will try to use the packaging script used by Salix for building grub2 with the last grub release on Slackware, and make new ...

Hi I do the following tests this morning, the working context : - extract files form the ISO image on the hard drive and install the new 'install-on-USB' in the 'boot' sub-directory - each time I ran 'install-on-USB', I do a : cd extract-of-salixlive/boot ./install-on-USB absolute-path-to-salixlive....

About grub-install, are you sure you installed grub2 and not grub ? My script didn't detect explicitly grub2, so if you have installed grub1 instead, it will not tell you. On this post http://www.salixos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=31&t=790&start=0 , I was confronted with the problem of grub ...

Hi, I use install-on-USB provided with salixlive-13.0.iso (downloaded Friday May the 8th). I should run twice the script before the USB drive can boot and I have the following message after each successfully execution (with fr_FR@euro on Slackware 13.0 box) : Installation finished. No error reported...

Make sure you upgrade the salixtools package before trying anything. I look into the "initrd" of the install cdrom and it seems that "usersetup" is lanched with chroot on the new root installed partition (is it right ?). For do the suggested upgrade, should I replace the package...

Hi gapan, For the next install, I keep my daughter far from the keyboard (8 years ago, she doesn't already read English ;) but she helps me for press the return and arrows keys) and none of the huge messages can miss me... :roll: (No really important data on this old laptop, like a dataless workstat...

In fact, I don't create a user during the install process (I don't know that is a necessary action), and I try to do this after the first boot in console mode (root login not granted with gdm). This new Salix Install is on a multiboot laptop with some linux distro and a shared home partition. My &qu...

Hello, Because the 'user manager GUI' doesn't propose the modification of the home directory of a user, I launch usersetup in console mode with root account. After successfully creation, I can see 2 bugs : 1) home directory is correct in passwd file but all file for the default environment are copie...

Grâce à ces réponses, je vais tester plus en détail votre distribution en mode "installée" et en mode "live". Merci pour le message de bienvenue, j'écris cette réponse depuis la Salix Live tournant depuis une clé Patriot XT sur un portable ACER Aspire 1700. La première impression...
