replaced kernel modules.sfs in initrd.xz
fall-back to devx and kernel sources as seperate files
fall-back to zwine (autoloads). To run pure64 (no wine or 32 libs), simply add the boot kernel parameter, pfix=Pure64.

ADDEND:

Just-Lighthouse is a computer operating system, not a cell-phone app.

As with Tazoc's original, Just-Lighthouse64 is shipped with three desktop flavors: the ever-tried and true JWM, lxde and open-box. Xfce is included in the 4_kde-4.10.5-x86_64-alt.sfs addon, stripped of systemd, making a total of five flavors.

'profile.sfs' is a skeleton file which will autoload at boot-up and is meant to be edited (right click -- edit-sfs) to include personal configuragion files such as your mozilla directory (or anything you'd want to place there, should you not want any sort of session save. As an example, it contains a mozilla directory in '/root' which is Tazoc's original configuration for Firefox-spot in Lighthouse64, adapted to run Icecat and Seamonkey (as 'root) as well. The newer browsers must generate their own .mozilla directory and cache on first run for all BUT root.

Just-Lighthouse64 comes with three mozilla browsers as separate sfs addons tailored for this distribution - Icecat, Seamonkey and Firefox - as well as Konqueror, a pretty hefty web package which comes on the kde sfs file. Like the pups of old, the ultra-light Dillo is built back in. Just-Lighthouse also has available an updated chrome browser (chromium-40), opera and vivaldi as sfs addons. Seamonkey still has the email program, html editor and contact organizer as did it's actual predecessor, the netscape communicator suite, which is why I include it. Just saying.

Also as in Tazoc's original, Just-Lighthouse64 is backwards-compatable with slackware back at least to 13.0 but now forward-compatible with 14.1 as well and perhaps even the slackware which is yet to come (currently called "Current"). It will still install pets, txz and rpm, and with some effort, debs, making it friendly to just about everybody. That is because, before slackware and even fatdog and its 64 bit compatibility and uefi bootability, it is still ... a woof-build.

Lastly, should you wish to install other lighthouse packages (pet or sfs) who's title includes the distro name, it may smooth the installation if you rename *L64* to *JL64*. It's just the 'J' which makes the difference. The final concern is the update manager which calls up a new pkg_list. It is disabled (in startup and menu) until a website (other than g-drive) can be found to host the distro.

New SFS:

kde-wallpapers-4.10.5-x86_64-1.sfs (Includes an assortment of LHP backgrounds as well)
6_kde-xtras.sfs (game package, edu & artwork)
4_KDE-4.10.5-x86_64-alt.sfs (includes xfce)
