I am getting kernel panic while booting. Image.Edit: My machine is Intel i3-3220 @3.30GHz, Mobo - Intel DH61BF, Ram- 6Gb.
Booting from 1Gb USB stick using Syslinux.
The same stick also has Tahrpup6, Fatdog631, Fatdog700b2 in their respective folders. All have savefolders on hard drive sda7 partition.

Thanks.

one bug that keeps occuring.

in /lib and /usr/lib there are symlinks called 'x86_64-linux-gnu' which are links to the /lib and /usr/lib folders

occasionally when installing something, either manually or from the PPM, the symlink gets overwritten with an actual folder causing catastrophic failure needing hard power off. you then need to boot pfix=ram and delete the folder & .wh file to rescue the save.

does anyone have any ideas why it's happening and how to stop it?

Hi 666philb

Downloaded and frugally installed on my HP laptop with Intel graphics.
Booted to desktop - tick.
Rebooted and created savefolder - tick.
Established Broadcom B43 wifi through sns - tick.
Used sfs-load to install Chromium64 - tick.
Ran Chromium64 - tick.

Only problem so far - pfind doesn't work - running in terminal indicated pfilesearch is missing.....

Cheers

When an archive is extracted from a package, it overwrites anything already there without asking.

I'm no linux expert, but I repackaged a load of mesa 10.4 debs for fatdog. The process of extracting all of the data.bz files into a directory tree creates the multiarch folders. For fatdog I had to rearrange and rename the folders anyway to fit the fatdog rules, so it didn't matter.

Presumably the package manager (petget?) code needs to be modified so that it writes the files, but does not create the directories unnecessarily.

EDIT

It could be that you are using busybox and not the real dpkg-deb to do the installation.

Woof-CE savefile - shutdown bug

#31 Post by LateAdopter »

Hello 666philb

Thanks for providing this. I try any 64 bit puppies, as 32 bit ones have too low video decode/playback on my hardware.

tahrpup64 has the savefile-shutdown bug that is common to all woof-CE puppies that I have tried. e.g. slacko64 and a trusty64 built with jamesbond's woof-ce-next. Woof2 puppies and fatdog64 don't have the problem.

If I boot without a savefile, there is no problem.

If I boot with a savefile and shutdown, the next boot has this error in the messages:

Code: Select all

FAT-fs (sda5): Volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupt. Please run fsck.
Win2k complains too, and runs the disk check.

I don't know how to debug shutdown, because it doesn't create any logfiles.

If I run another puppy, that doesn't have the bug, from the same partition and shutdown, it doesn't clear the error.

I presume this implies that the savefile is been left open when the woof-CE puppy is shut down.

My puppies run from a FAT32 partition. Is there anything I can do to help solve this? Thanks.

Hiyas..

boots, connects and runs well on my dell E6510 / i7Q, finds 8 cores.

I'll try to get nvidia going, are the kernel source files the same as the 32bit version?

Have just downloaded and manual frugal install on my desktop PC (HP H8 FX-6100, AMD Radeon 7450 Video card, 10 GB RAM, Broadcom WIFI, 1920 x 1080 monitor).

Setup no problems, wifi working, correct resolution on monitor. All OK after reboot and created save folder.


So far , so good. Thank you, well done.

savefolder - using symbolic links

#35 Post by gyro »

First boot -> desktop fine, ethernet fine.
Created a savefolder on reboot, everything looks good.

On investigation I found that the savefolder was accessed via a 'mount -o bind'.
So, I started to create the patched stuff to support the implementation of savefolder using symbolic links.
The patch to the 'init' script went smoothly.
The patch to 'rc.shutdown' failed, so I had a closer look at the scripts in tahrpup64.
It appears that the script patches required to implement savefolder using symbolic links, are already included in tahrpup64, except for the 'init' script.

This is not a real problem since all the 'savefolder' patches make things work with either the new or the old, which ever is used.

I then made a patched 'initrd.gz' and rebooted.
Then the savefolder is accessed as a symbolic link and all seems ok, except 'freememapplet_tray' crashes.

So, a patched "initrd.gz" is here, http://www.fishprogs.info/puppy/tahr64/initrd.gz.
And a "ydrv" containing a patched "freememapplet_tray" is here, http://www.fishprogs.info/puppy/tahr64/ ... _6.0.2.sfs

The "frememapplet_tray" binary is one I compiled for Slacko64.
