I installed Grub in sda7 (my partition for Slacko). It has 'Quick' and 'Expert' install. I chose 'Expert'. It had 'Stage 1', where you chose where MBR will be installed. I chose hd(0,6) (that is sda7). In 'stage 2', you choose where the Grub will be installed. Again, I chose hd(0,6). So in EasyBCD I...

I reinstalled it in usb with UNetBootin.
This time i didn't remove 'pmedia=flashusb'.
And managed to save the session, I just had to wait a bit longer on exit .

But If I put back I won't have personal storage file and won't be able to save the session.

And it worked fine.
Till the Winows explorer's 'check' (scan or something).

I used EasyBCD because I wanted to use only the windows' bootloader and no one else, like grub or similar.

I 'm trying to make a dual boot. In first partition I have win7, in sixth I installed (full install) Slacko puppy 5.7.0. I've entered menu entries for Slacko (tried all variants) with EasyBCD, but had nosuccess in booting Slacko. (in Slacko I haven't put any Boot manager like Grub or anything). Here...

I have installed in usb Slacko Puppy 5.7.0. I 've removed the line media=flashUSB (something like that, I don't remember excactly) and so I have personal starage file on Flash. It worked ok. But...suddenly doesn't boot! (I think after a check of the usb in Windows 7 files explorer, it must be someth...

I'm using Lazarus pascal 1.2.4 on Slacko 5.7. I'm trying to build it with Qt. I have installed qt_all-4.7.3 and ibqtwebkit_2.2.1 (I'm not sure, maybe this file is included in the first file) But I stil get the same error when I'm tying to compile & build Lazarus: Linking /usr/share/lazarus/1.2.4...

The correct file is nvidia_legacy-304.119-3.4.82-i686.pet

I tried all of them, and the 4 of them (304.xx & 173.xx), none works .

I 've tried one of the drivers from the Package Manager, but I don't think it's the correct for my video card.
Have a look at the attachment.
Which driver is the correct for GeForce 6150SE?

I 've installed fatdog, but it crashes often.
Usually when I open some application, e.g firefox. Or Monkey browser.
Is it a matter of graphics card driver?
I have nVidia GeForce 6150SE.

I just installed Slacko puppy 5.7. I have a problem with Firefox: when I try to open a downloaded file, returns me error: "File doesn't exist, or I can't access it: file:///root/....." I followed instructions from here : network.protocol-handler.expose.file;true network.protocol-handler.ex...

I installed and used a windows application through Wine, Winx video converter. It took 96 minutes to convert a 120MB movie from mp4 to 3gp. At convertfiles.com it took me 28 minutes, from which upload was the 25 minutes and 3 minutes download(74MB), So I guess the online converter is a better soluti...

I did what was suggested here:
/usr/bin/ffconvert:
Code:
source_property "$FILE1" $SKIP || FLAG=$?
Now I get another error (from avconv, I guess FFConvert uses avconv):
"Could not write header for output file #0 (incorrect codec parameters ?)"

Can I use FFConvert on puppy to convert mp4 to 3gp? I don't see such a choice in FFConvert. I tried and directly with ffmpeg: ffmpeg -i input.mp4 output.3gp and returned me an error: "Error while opening encoder for output stream #0.0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width o...

Yes it is, but at line 6 I had made an orthographic mistake :kali-linux-1.0.7 while the correct is kali-linux-1.0.9.

Well, the answer, finally, was this: title Kali Linux ISO partnew (hd1,3) 0x00 (hd1,1)/kali-linux-1.0.9-amd64.iso map --heads=0 --sectors-per-track=0 (hd1,1)/kali-linux-1.0.9-amd64.iso (0xff) map --hook root (0xff) chainloader (0xff) (I don't have hd1,3 but...it works! I only have hd1,0 and hd1,1) T...

Now my menu entry is this: title Kali Linux ISO 6 find --set-root /kali-linux-1.0.9-amd64.iso map --heads=0 --sectors-per-track=0 /kali-linux-1.0.9-amd64.iso (0xff) map --hook root (0xff) kernel /live/vmlinuz boot=live fromiso=/dev/sdb2/kali-linux-1.0.7-amd64.iso noconfig=sudo username=root hostname...

I 'm using defrags in my Puppy. It started at 7:30, now it's 10:30, already 3 hours. On sda1. It's 250 GB. And it's ext2, not fat32 :( . I have no idea when it will finish. And of course, if it ill work. Edit: I stopped defrags, it would take days. I created a new FAT32 partition, sdb2. That's in th...
