have you tried bittorrent sync? free as in price and works very well for syncing folders across computers.

i jus reuploaded sensei64. i noticed the webcam modules weren't included. also hoping usb booting is working correctly.

After this move next step is back to beginning - switch to Arch base, use pacman, remove firefox and majority of graphical apps, and just use f* computer not waste time on compiling, polishing, fixing etc. This has been valuable experience, but simply it is just too much work for just me and finall...

While I'm not a beginner as such, I'm certainly not too knowledgeable and I really don't know where to start with this. I did a manual frugal install of Sensei Full and so far am very happy with it. I love xfce! It's on a Dell Latitude D520. Is there anything I can install that will let me have mor...

could you try replacing these 2 files in the dir /usr/bin....and see if it works after...

efgee,

what if from that prompt you run:
do u then see senapps sendesk and sensei64.sfs copying to ram?

ok i was able to reproduce this exact same behavior by using a usbhub. FatDog64-521..still booted, but Sensei64...did the exact things mentioned by meowcats and efgee. I was able to get it to load using this initrd.gz md5 = 9ec2c52016dcd4ba6d8457b59aba30a8 could you two try this initrd...and see if ...

I know you are not waiting for me... anyway, just tried to load Sensei64 from USB-Flash (2GB). Loads OK but it can't find the sfs file either. Used UNetbootin to load the ISO to USB. thanks for that efgee. guess that confirms it. i need to try it on some more machines. r u certain unetbootin pulled...

i just uploaded an lxde sendesk for Sensei. For users who may happen to prefer lxde/openbox over xfce. I shrunk the size of the isos about 40 more MB and made some adjustments to keep the different desktops working neatly and without issues. So if you prefer lxde over xfce...delete or backup sendesk...

interestingly when i am at initial ram disk prompt, if I run "~./init" then it finds the sendesk, senapps, sensei64_001.sfs! However after it says "copy to ram" it still leaves me at inital ram disk prompt. :( does it appear to go through the complete 'usual' boot procedure? loa...

i jus reuploaded Sensei64 with the updated initrd.gz. Would be nice if another user could test it on usb...and report if it successfully loaded....or ended with "sfs not found". i also fixed the kernel panic when loading a save file on usb, added xarchiver, zip, unzip, unrar, pupsaveresize...

Sensei files are in /Sensei64/ The light on the drive only turns on when there is activity, it blinks when kernel and initrd load, but then stop after that. I can even mount the flash drive from the ramdisk prompt too, and am able to access files. Ok...so it's doing everything but finding the files...

Mouse/keyboard only work with the newer initrd you supplied. With the old, mouse/keyboard lights are off; can not type anything at prompt With the new, mouse/keyboard lights are on; able to type things! and the sfs files are placed on the flash drive...but still aren't being found...? there's no in...

although neither initrd.gz is finding the sfs file...the keyboard and mouse works with the older initrd?

yea...it absolutely sounds like ehci/uhci_hcd aren't loading...that's why i'd like to see what modprobe says. hopefully u can give it a try with an old school keyboard?

no...that should be right, even with the dashes. try this...after loading and getting the sfs not found...from that prompt, type in modprobe ehci_hcd...and see if u get an error. does your flash drive have a light indicator of some sort to let u know that it's on....like how the sandisk flash drives...

r u certain u're using that newer initrd.gz? can you check it to make sure the: md5sum = 467776b53fe59ffab64c0f44e8d80bb8 it's working fine usb booting on my machine. it's loading the usb drivers correctly. I just fixed the kernel panic when using a save file too. if it's not loading with that initr...

meowcats,

can you see if this initrd.gz file works correctly to boot from usb...

if it loads correctly...could u test it w/a save file and see if it kernel panics....

i see the problem. it's in the initrd.gz...the usb modules aren't loading so therefore...the sfs's on the usb aren't loading. i'm working on it now.

meowcats...

i'm wondering if there's a driver not loading your drive. are the sfs files on an internal HD or on a usb drive?
