slacko-6.0 alpha Subject description: running internet apps as spot |
|
When I first booted up Slacko one of the options in the first run
settings is to "run internet apps as spot", I checked that box.
After seeing James success with getflash I am now running firefox as
root and the flashplugin is working fine.
I first reported this back in Slacko64, problem is still there but not
as bad as Slacko64 because firefox runs well as spot apart from the
flashplugin problem, in Slacko64 running the browser as spot slows
connecting to web sites to a crawl.

From CD, does it boot fast? That is.. is it reading the CD for the Puppy_slacko-5.9.1.sfs or the hard drive? CD=slow, HD=fast boot. Maybe the hard drive drivers aren't getting loaded in initrd. Is it a new hard drive or motherboard? (thinking along the lines of hard drive controller).
BTW, logs seem ok.

Just to add to this. Hide any save files made from slacko and make sure puppy_slacko-5.9.1.sfs is on the root of a partition. Boot of optical drive with no pfix= params. Does it load the main sfs of the CD/DVD or the HDD? Again, I should be able to tell from the logs so if you don't mind post them from that scenario please.

Just copied the main sfs and zdrive to the partition (instead of a folder), rebooted cd and successfully booted.Seemed a bit slow.
Same old mobo and hard drive ...did add a second hdd but using sda only for Puppy.

Moved the main sfs and z drive to different partition(Mint partition actually), hid savefiles and.booted cd with no parameters.
Looks like it picked up the puppy_slacko_5.9.1.sfs from sda2 and not the cd.

Ok, we can determine that the driver for the hdd is loaded too late. That driver should be built into vmlinuz (and in tahr is probably missing from init.gz). Output of lsmod and lspci -nn will be handy now to figure out what module to make a builtin. Thanks.

As an experiment, did a frugal install directly to the root of sdb3, quick fix of menu.lst and it boots no problem.
If i follow my normal procedure of putting all files in a folder ....immediate kernel panic.Root of the partition...... no problem.

Just wondering, if you go to "/setup/QuickSetup first run settings" and
check the "Run Internet apps as spot" box, does it break the
flashplugin and cause Firefox to crash?
