Puppy derivatives

#1 Post by claude »

I copied iso files content onto hard disk; I boot xpuppy from this hard disk with the pfix=ram parameter: at shutdown, a pup_save.3fs is created; If I want to restart xpuppy, I got the kernel panic init error message.

My grub entry looks like the following:

root (hd1,1)
kernel /puppyxp/vmlinuz root=/dev/ram0 PMEDIA=idehd PDEV1=hdb2 PKEYS=us
initrd /pupppyxp/initrd.gz

the files .sfs are located in the root of hdb2.

Any solution ?

Thank you very much.

Puppy xpuppy

#2 Post by claude »

I found a solution to my problem: I have multiple puppy versions installed on different partitions on multiple disks: if I hide the other partitions containing puppy, I succeed to boot xpuppy with my pup_save.3fs saved files. Because xpuppy is based on puppy 2.02, I could not use psubdir parameter to store my saved files, like in version 3 or 4 of puppy.

Is it the right solution to apply ?

Maybe better suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you very much.
