grub4dos would need to be patched? boot parameters work with grub4dos.simargl wrote:@stifiling: This test iso works only with kernel parameter apextsfs=arch_openbox.sfs, otherwise additional sfs is not loaded. So that would require patching grub4dos, but even with that user will have to edit menu.lst every time for another arch_*.sfs. It's good idea that you moved /usr/bin/X to another sfs, so on boot it will not stuck trying to exec archpupx over and over again.
yes, to change DE the user would have to change the boot parameter...what's so wrong wit that? it's not something they'll be doing two or three times a day.
but when i say picky users, i'm referring to users like oui. who didn't want a savefile, he didn't want pop up messages....this would give a user like him.....all of what they want, and none of what they don't want.
it would be impossible to hear a "i don't like this, how do i get rid of it?" comment.
