Are you still using Quirky?

You can install it to /usr/lib/palemoon-28.6.0.1 pulling palemoon (172K) to the desktop.

Have fun!

Re: 128 GB USB

I don't think that is the case.
I use Quirky/April64/Slaq on a daily basis on a 128GB micro sd. under F2FS and it is simply the best. I Do think F2FS handles better unintended/accidental usb removal on a full/non-aufs drive install.

my 2 cents.

Powerapplet_tray version 2.7

I compiled it in Quirky Beaver64 8.7.1 and made the pet package.

@gcav

Perhaps I had a defective USB. I'll try again and see. Are you using USB2.0 or 3.0?

If BarryK or anyone else familiar with WoofQ is reading this, perhaps they can point me to which line or lines create the separate partitions. Maybe limiting the 2nd partition and creating a 3rd, empty partition would omit the problem. I run USB 2.0 with USB 3.0 sticks.


Best,
