Here is a fixed custom builder.

If you are building only the adrive, just say no when it asks if you want to build an ISO. Then it won't ask for the files.

Hi jemimah:

Installed custom_builder7, even rebooted, and initiated new attempt to build adrive. The second or third dialog box, see attached, asks whether you want to modify the applications installed. If you respond "No" builder will ask for the location of the directory containing isolinux files. The non-intuitive work around is to answer "yes" and then click "ok" --or whatever-- without having done anything.
Although it's a good idea, if a new iso is sought, to make certain at the beginning that the files needed to build an iso are available before spending time building adrive, I think another subroutine is required.
I think during the build process a folder named "adrive_ext" is created. At some point in the building I received a notification that something related to winamp was needed. Checking what what was in my adrive_packages folder I realized that while I had downloaded the latest wine pet, I had not deleted its predecessor. So I quit builder and deleted the "old" wine pet. Adrive_ext was not deleted and the next attempt at building reported the same missing lib. After manually deleting adrive_ext that file was no longer reported as missing.
However, although I think I'm up to date on all included pets, and all are from the Saluki repository, the attached shows those files reported as missing. Note, one seems to pertain to python. I did not inclue python or -- as far as I know--anything related to python in the build. All applications seem to work, so I think this is a case of identifying helpful, but not required, libs as missing.

I did a manual frugal install of Saluki-015.
On boot up Saluki did not detect my monitor settings of 1900x1080.
I ran Xorgwizard: probe then Xwindows would not start. Also tried
Xorgwizard: select and chose nv still Xwindows would not start..
I rebooted with no save file and installed the Nvida proprietory driver.
Ran Xorgwizard: select and chose Nvida, again Xwindows would not start.

ctrl-alt-backspace

xwin icewm

and then

ctrl-alt-backspace

xwin xfce4

does not work properly. Can.t get the wallpaper back.

One of the PuppEEEs had a whole bunch of window managers as well as netbook and laptop desktop layouts /menu settings. Is it possible to make a pet which adds this functionality in saluki?

Hi i installed wbar as a test fromclick here it installd ok and works fine. After the first boot or restart x wabar looks like this click here. after i click on one of the apps it reverts back to normal. click here (I would post images directly here but the editor img function given is incorect) any ideas would be useful.

Was also wondering how i can load sfs files at boot up. you have removed the boot up manager. i know i can load sfs on the fly after boot. but i want to have the ability to create customised sfs for different tasks.eg i can create an office pup with libre office and any other office apps i want. a media sfs with all media apps such as vlc etc. (this is just one idea i might not include it in my final os but would like to see how you can handle it, as you dont have the puppy bootup manager) I can see you have zdrive.sfs and adrive.sfs already setup. can i edit that to include other sfs files.

Also Lighthouse pup click here has a start up script that will detect all sfs and give option to load or unload them on request before the os has booted, Lighthouse pup also can load up to 40 sfs somehow with a modified boot up script. you may not want this type of setup which is fine just throwing it out there. .
