StretchDog
In a very old laptop (clevo D400s ,sis650 graphics integrated graphics card and year about 2004) I boot with a clean Jessie Dog 32 without any problems.
Both Stretch Dog 32 (from this topic) & a stretch dog 32( made with the debootstrap script) reach the time that startx is starting and then the laptop seems to go to sleep mode (powerlight blinking everything else powers down).
I suspect that it might be driver/firmware issue. Is there a way to get the same firmwares/drivers that are used in JessieDog32 to the Stretch 32 linuxes? How could I do that? I even tried nomodeset parameter but did not work.
Do you have any other idea?

Hi trister, maybe try to boot with the Jessie kernel (3.16)
Here's a "package" 32-bit (has newest Jessie kernel version included as squashfs)
https://fredx181.github.io/StretchDog/N ... pae.tar.gz
From extracted folder "k-3.16.0-4-pae", copy the files to the Stretch "live" folder, the initrd1.xz and vmlinuz1 need to be replaced (better first make backup of originals, or rename)
I tested this on Stretch and works fine, btw, boots faster than the Stretch kernel for me.

I tried it but I got the same result. Laptop seems to goto sleep mode instead of starting desktop.
I think I'll just check which stretchdog32 squashfs run in this older laptop.Maybe I'll be lucky and will all run...
*** Updated "upgrade-kernel" ***
Made some changes, takes less time, it has also dependency "elinks" now, this for to check at https://fredx181.github.io/StretchDog/ for latest aufs and squashfs kernel modules I compiled, currently:
https://fredx181.github.io/StretchDog/a ... s-k4.9.0-8
Install :
Also made slightly different script upgrade-kernel2, request from trister, see here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 97#1007597
With that one the kernel install is not being part of the filesystem or changes (installs in chroot)
Just needs manual copying the created files to the "live" frugal install folder.
Perhaps this is better way to upgrade the kernel, any opinions ?

I tried to boot with live-boot but I wasn't able. Don't know what to change this porteus boot option:
title porteus dogstretch_deblive32/ RAM
find --set-root --ignore-floppies /dogstretch_deblive32/live/initrd1.xz
kernel /dogstretch_deblive32/live/vmlinuz1 from=/dogstretch_deblive32
initrd /dogstretch_deblive32/live/initrd1.xz
That would be for live-boot (needs to have initrd.img in your live folder):trister wrote:I tried to boot with live-boot but I wasn't able. Don't know what to change this porteus boot option:

kernel /dogstretch_deblive32/live/vmlinuz1 boot=live live-media-path=/dogstretch_deblive32/live union=aufs
initrd /dogstretch_deblive32/live/initrd.img
Needs some more for that, but let's first see if it makes a difference for you.

Thanks again fred.
Also, another irrelevant question.
Is it possible in the EXIT: boot option to disable the save session message when shutting down (or at least make default the Do Not Save option) ?
I want to save the session only when I want (eg with save2flash).

Yes, Bob asked about that a while back (NoSave as default), needs some script editing, see here:

Thanks both for the quick reply.
Made it a squashfs with 30seconds delay

Downloaded and had a try the "DevuanLive_ascii_jwm-amd64.iso", copied the live folder to my hda2 and boot with copy2ram option
Running smooth and stable. But found that hda1 and hda2 were automatically mounted at bootup ? is there any boot parameter that prevents such automatical mounting of hda1 and hda2 ?
Fatdog64, when running in ram, do not mount harddisk until desktop icon clicked by user.

Thanks Fred,
i add noauto to the kernel boot command line, but my sda2 is still automatically mounted under /mnt/sda2
sda2 is the partition where i placed the live folder. is it possible none of my harddisk partition mounted while all running in ram. My experience with Fatdog64 (huge initrd) is that none of my harddisk partition mounted automatically.

Adding parameter fsck to the kernel boot command line will check all partitions.I'm getting a lot of "structure needs cleaning" errors. How do I fix them. I'm running stetchdog in a virtualbox. It was working well for quite a while but I don't see an option to do e2fsk in the boot menu.

@quirkian2new
Yes, boot partition is always mounted at start, but to unmount you can add a simple scriptt to /root/Startupi add noauto to the kernel boot command line, but my sda2 is still automatically mounted under /mnt/sda2
Code: Select all
#!/bin/sh
hdrv=$(cat /mnt/live/etc/homedrv | cut -d'/' -f3)
umount /dev/$hdrv

Replying to questions from here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 02#1009302
First, there maybe some confusion.
StretchDog is using method for booting borrowed from Porteus (with some cheatcodes working, not all).
For the rest it has nothing to do with Porteus.
So forget about loading .xzm modules.
For the other problems you have, please provide more details.

Hello Rafael,Porteus Modules: How can load then at startup, how can I extract them to convert them to SFS
How can I chanbge from single click to double click in XFCE.
I use Pocket with Firefox but it seems to be broken.
I had a question about printing but I solved that.
My Network connection keeps dropping and I dont know where to fixit.
My wireless connection only recognizes my wireless printer but not the wifi.
I am completely new to both Debian and Puppy, I have everythin in Porteus.
Thanks in advance
