This bug is still present in Slacko64 6.3.2. I have solved this issue adding the line [ -e /etc/localtime ] && export TZ=$(readlink /etc/localtime|sed -e 's,/usr/share/zoneinfo/,,' -e 's,Etc/,,') in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit : # diff -u rc.sysinit.orig rc.sysinit --- rc.sysinit.orig 2016-06-21 02...

Thanks for the tip greengeek, solved!

I have added the line

Code: Select all

PSUBDIR='/slacko64_6.9.6.4'

No. The F2FS installation uses EXTLINUX, not Grub.

The installation ends correctly but when I boot a PC from this stick I receive the attached error screen.

Solved copying puppy_slacko64_6.9.6.4.sfs to the root of the F2FS partition.

Thank you trapster for the reply, I have already read the document, but, unfortunately, the etc/rc.d/rc.shutdown script is executed when the X server is already killed. I have done some a test with a VirtualBox DOS VM. The script /root/bin/stop_dos.sh , save the VM state: LOG_FILE="/var/log/sto...

I am running Slacko64 6.3.2 as a ZFS and VirtualBox server on a HP Microserver gen8. This is a frugal install on a 16GB USB flash drive with PUPMODE==12. I need to save the VirtualBox VM state before the X server is killed. I have already modified these two scripts : /etc/acpi/actions/acpi_poweroff....

Thank you Semme, it works ! I have installed the kernel driver version 5.0.14 via SlackBuilds.org: https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/system/virtualbox-kernel/ and the VirtualBox userland application version 5.1.8 downloading and executing http://download.virtualbox.org/virtualbox/5.1.8/Virtual...

Hi All,
is possible to install a recent version of VirtualBox in this OS ?

Thanks,
Maurizio

Hi all,
my first post

Using the F2FS Installer I am trying to use a 16GB USB stick.
The installation ends correctly but when I boot a PC from this stick I receive the attached error screen.

What am I missing ?

Thanks,
Maurizio
