For some time I've been thinking that it wouldn't make sense to open new thread with new ISO release, since it's so easy now to build your own. But yes, I'll think about it. Building iso image with this script will make different iso versions even if the configuration is the same with some packages...

Hi musher0. DebianDog is a community project. it isn't Fred's, mine or anyone else DebianDog. We both agreed it is this forum community project and it has open source license and it is like that as far as i'm concerned. There is no need to blame anyone for the DebianDog forks and related threads sin...

did try saintless' template (or matrix or seed or whatever it's called), but I can't get a connection to the fedora repos. Wired network autoconnects for me on boot. Maybe there is something more to cleanup in the remaster script but I don't know what exactly. Try to use dhclient for your network i...

on a simple PC only with hard disk, you are totaly dependant from an idiotic only one directory, "live". It isn't true. Maybe you are just confused by someone who thinks porteus-boot is the best in the linux world. But even with porteus-boot you can avoid live folder name: http://murga-li...

... I would be very sorry if my DD usage/inputs have in any way damaged Puppy Linux itself - I'm sure Toni didn't and doesn't want that to happen either, but you'd have to ask him. Don't waste your time answering provocations from people like that. Just ignore them and work on what you like in publ...

is it possible to create squashfs with xorg and desktop, without kernel? But dont break the system? when install linux-image-4.9.0-3-686-pae you have initrd and vmlinuz. so you only need initrd and vmlinuz? , then can you safe remove linux-image-4.9.0-3-686-pae? and keep "initrd and vmlinuz&qu...

Systemd is a dependency of synaptic

it's not indicated as a dependency here:

It is a dependency because synaptic depends on policykit-1 which depends on libpam-systemd which depends on systemd.

Please all, try to leave this thread only for how-to information . Post questions like that in the correct Debian/XenialDog threads you downloaded the iso from.

Porteus-boot loop devices tips: There is some confusion about how many squashfs modules can load DebianDog on boot and I read from time to time answers the number is 8 (from /dev/loop0 to /dev/loop7) and examples how to increase the number in porteus initrd1.xz linuxrc script. Yes and No. YES - liv...

EDIT: I don't understand quite what you mean when you say the download was missing .zip at the end when wget used with --no-check-certificate though? I don't have that problem when tried that in the past. Certainly, woofclonefile variable in makepup contains .zip at the end the way it has been crea...

Quirky ? :P I can't find information about saving sessions on the same boot CD/DVD. Only remastering with changes to new CD/DVD, Correct me if I'm wrong or you know a way to do it with Quirky.

duckguy , the frugal installer needs to choose XenialDog iso or casper folder. Your casper folder is on the CD. Mount the CD, choose the casper folder in the installer and it will install grub4dos and casper folder with all its content on the flash drive (or hard disk drive depending of your choice...

There are a number of distros out there that could fit that definition. Name one except Puppy and DebianDog (Dog based) with option to: Puppy's goals: 3.

duckguy - since your flash drive is empty and you still have the CD boot from it and use the included frugal installer and choose grub4dos (it will install XenialDog with menu.lst and boot entries). Just make sure to choose the flash drive: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=773207&si...

^copying data to RAM this may take some time ... ^(1 module left) [/i] The above text appears at around 50 seconds and then it hangs there for I think three or four minutes. The slow boot comes from optical drive read/copy speed. It is much slower compared to hard drive or usb drive frugal install....

SWAP file and SWAP partition troubles: Debian and Ubuntu live systems are configured to use swap partitions on boot using boot parameter swapon (older live-boot and casper-boot) and swap (newer live-boot). You can't use swap file on boot adding the above parameters. Swap file can be used by adding ...

Your memory ramsize=80% works keniv. Without using ramsize= parameter you should get around 190 (60% of 320Mb RAM) instead 244. Firefox, qtweb and any other programs RAM usage has nothing to do with the result from df -h command. QtWeb uses your real RAM memory and you can see the usage from htop or...

How to lock-up your system (or prevent it) after advices to increase the tmpfs size: By default Debian, Ubuntu, Porteus limits the real RAM size mounted as tmpfs to 50-60% of your real RAM size when using no-persistent boot. This is for a good reason but Porteus for example gives option to increase...
