I tried adding this to the end here and that did indeed silence it

I've been editing the puppyinstaller script, and i think this is good enough. I tested frugal and full installs.. all good. Of course this is assuming you have used grub4dosconfig before to install the bootloader..
NEWGRUBTEXT
| Code: | If you have GRUB installed, find the 'menu.lst' file (usually in /boot
in the partition in which GRUB is installed) and insert the text,
or, if you have GRUB4DOS installed, find the 'menu.lst' file (usually
in / in the partition in which GRUB4DOS is installed) and insert this:
title Puppy Linux 6.9.6.1 full install in sda6
#root (hd0,0) <-- GRUB legacy, ex: hd1,0
uuid e0d252ba-c4ac-41cd-82d5-585af7d66cab
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=PARTUUID=3afa3af9-06 pmedia=atahd
# root=/dev/sda6
-----
For GRUB you must set root (hdX,X) to the correct values and comment/remove uuid. root (hdX,X) is also supported by grub4dos.. |
fstab..
| Quote: | #/dev/sda6 / ext3 defaults 0 1
UUID=e0d252ba-c4ac-41cd-82d5-585af7d66cab / ext3 defaults 0 1
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /sys sysfs defaults 0 0
none /dev/pts devpts gid=2,mode=620 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/floppy auto noauto,rw 0 0 |
so i think this is a wise solution, the /dev/sdXX as comments..

Re: Weird Cups problem |

Same problem here on slacko-6.9.6.1 (32-bit).
I successfully setup my networked printer, and printed a test file.
After reboot I printed the test file a second time, nothing printed.
Uninstalled and installed a pet, printed test file a third time, success.
According to CUPS, there were 3 successfull jobs. But I only got the first and the third printouts, (Geany adds a header that includes the date and time of the printing). So it looks like the second print job disappeared down some bit bucket somewhere.
No idea why?

I don't know if the issue is perms on /tmp
Now, /tmp is a symlink to /initrd/mnt/tmpfs/tmp and perms are 0755. Usually /tmp requires 1777 (sticky 'bit' set).
EDIT:
This has to be it. /usr/local/petget/installpkg.sh resets perms on /tmp to 1777 if a dodgy package is installed. This affects the original dir from the symlink. Of course this doesn't survive a reboot so .. what is the best way to restore perms on /tmp at bootup? That will be the solution.

i placed the code in rc.sysinit ("making the filesystem usable") https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/commit/8abe959d41ad96e8a9ea1e1dc5024fff48b77c54

That fixes it - many thanks both....

Unfortunately when I tried to boot slacko 6.9.6.1(32) with the latest rc.sysinit from 'rationalise', I couldn't get X to start. Not sure what's going on there.
So, after back tracking to an older rc.sysinit, I can confirm that the non-printing problem is fixed with a | Code: | | chmod 1777 /initrd/mnt/tmpfs/tmp |
In the absense of the rc.sysinit fix. I added a | Code: | | chmod 1777 /mnt/tmpfs/tmp |
into init at the point that the directory is created.
This worked. So I have a patch to "init" but I haven't pushed it yet.
I think it's slightly tidier to fix the problem at it's source.
(I also checked, and /tmp is fine in pupmode=13).

@gcmartin,
There is no reason why you could not have a number of "BOOT_SPECS" files stored on your system, and copy the appropriate one into "initrd.gz" before the next boot, using "file2initrd".
The current "bootspecs" utility is not setup to do that.

gyro i went ahead and pushed this commit: https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/woof-CE/commit/fa1a681f5d34e358563999d00522ec2705ec79fe
i noticed /tmp is a symlink to /initrd/mnt/tmpfs/tmp only when there is a pupsave, so i created an empty savefile for a usb to test this... then i was faced with the upgrade option... it didn't do well with an empty savefile.... so i think i'll add a check to prevent upgrades when the old version = ""

Sorry, my bad.
After downloading I forgot to check it had execute permisssions.
Strange how things don't work quite right when rc.sysint can't execute.
Still leaves the question, fix the /initrd/mnt/tmpfs/tmp permissions bug in "init" or "rc.sysinit"?
Edit: well you've patched init anyway.

My experience is that puppy has never done well with an empty savefile or savefolder. So it's a wider issue that just upgrades. Should really reject empty savefile/folder erlier that in upgrade code.
Perhaps we could reject any savefile/folder that doesn't contain "/initrd/DISTRO_SPECS"?
In "setup_save_file()", immediately after the "#[ "PUPSAVE" ] && decrypt directory at SAVE_LAYER", line.

Piping output of find into grep fails.
pMusic (and probably other scripts) has used this mechanism for years, so it would have been detected if existing in previous Puppies.
| Quote: | # find /mnt/sdb1/musikk/ | wc -l
70326
# find /mnt/sdb1/musikk/ -name *mp3 | wc -l
64658
# find /mnt/sdb1/musikk/ | grep mp3 | wc -l
8506
# find /mnt/sdb1/musikk/ -name *mp3 | grep mp3 | wc -l
64658 |
The 'red' command ends with the notice (not sent to stderr):
Binary file (standard input) matches
| Code: | #find /mnt/sdb1/musikk/ 2> /dev/null | grep mp3 2> /dev/null
[...]
/mnt/sdb1/musikk/mp3/Blink 182 - Point of view.mp3
/mnt/sdb1/musikk/mp3/Johnny Bode - Det är så underbart at...mp3
Binary file (standard input) matches |
Any clues? |
Using the -a switch forces grep to read binary files (corrupted files) as text. This partly fixes the issue. | Code: | # find /mnt/sdb1/musikk/ | grep -a mp3 | wc -l
65154 |
The next problem was awk that removes duplicated lines depending on the value in a column by
| Code: | | awk -F'|' '!a[$1]++' |
Now fixed by defining LANG=C | Code: | | LANG=C awk -F'|' '!a[$1]++' |
I will update pMusic |
Next chapter:
Grep is the troublemaker, and it troubles with special chars.
With default settings (Slacko 6.9.6.1): | Code: | # echo "$LANG"
en_US.UTF-8
# grep mp3 ./index_mymusic.bak | wc -l
14680
#
# LANG=en_US.UTF-8 grep mp3 ./index_mymusic.bak | wc -l
14680 |
With LANG set to something not UTF
| Code: | # LANG=en_US grep mp3 ./index_mymusic.bak | wc -l
70971
# LANG=C grep mp3 ./index_mymusic.bak | wc -l
70971 |

In Slacko 6.3.2 grep works as expected, but it includes an older version of grep - 2.14.
Grep in Slacko 6.9.6.1 is version 2.25

Did you happen to try busybox grep? You could perhaps use it on the condition of the 'grep -V'. IDK if it would work because I only have one album that has special chars and that seem to work anyway. (Just a note - these alphas ship busybox 1.25.0)
BTW - 'streamripper' package was broken. I'll fix it soon.

The following text is for grep testing. I have also attached the same text in a file in case copy/pasting converts it (copy/paste worked for me). The gz is fake - it is a plain text file.
| Code: | line 1.mp3
Gartnerlosjen - Tøffe tak Tute.mp3
The Beach Boys - Surfin´ U.S.A.mp3
Mötley Crüe - Primal Scream.mp3
line 5.mp3 |
Here is my result with plain grep and with the -a switch | Code: | # grep mp3 /root/forum
line 1.mp3
Binary file /root/forum matches
#
# grep -a mp3 /root/forum
line 1.mp3
Gartnerlosjen - Tøffe tak Tute.mp3
The Beach Boys - Surfin´ U.S.A.mp3
Mötley Crüe - Primal Scream.mp3
line 5.mp3 |
And the result with(out) UTF-8 | Code: | # LANG=en_US grep mp3 /root/forum
line 1.mp3
Gartnerlosjen - Tøffe tak Tute.mp3
The Beach Boys - Surfin´ U.S.A.mp3
Mötley Crüe - Primal Scream.mp3
line 5.mp3
#
# LANG=en_US.UTF-8 grep mp3 /root/forum
line 1.mp3
Binary file /root/forum matches
# |
How do I know if I use the busybox alternative? | Code: | # grep --version
