Hi shinobar :D !
hope you'r doing well !
Thanks a lot for this new remaster tool !
I have got a try on it and ... it's great ! very handy to use !

UNlike for other earlier used remastering tools, this one could well remaster my puppy with all installed pets included :)
One major point: the specific-to-my-video /etc/X11/xorg.conf file is present on the ISO ... very handy especically for «tricky» graphic systems (like the mine ...i.e. :twisted: 82845G Brookdale video chip ... ); as also the locale (through the «locale» checkbox).

Cheers, Charlie

Just tried V.08. I had one problem to bring to attention.

Objective: I wanted to remake a running TahrPUP and to use the "QuickSET" bootable subsystem.

Problem: RemasterX issues with QuickSET ISO.

Attachment: Console log for RemasterX operation.

Question
  • Should something else have occurred? (Yes/No)

Hi, Flash.

For 32-bits, it will certainly do the job; for 64-bits, I don't know, sorry...

/tmp/etc is strategic.

Magoo-pup ( Concept Puppy par ETP) remasterized to night.. easily
Dont hurry, step /tmp/etc is strategic.
Then just wait..
I just dit my try without asking to much. My goal is to take the best in several Precise Puppies to approach the ideal Pupplet. At home of course.
I Did It in the past with Slacko 55.
Why Precise ? It's a good generation.

The things they do not tell you, are usually the clue to solving the problem.
When I was a kid I wanted to be older.... This is not what I expected :shock:

Adding UEFI

#20 Post by mikeslr »

Hi musher0 & All,

I'd volunteer to bump it every couple of days, except that I'm likely to forget. I've heard it said: "Out of sight, out of mind". Not sure if I should take that personally. :? :)

By the way, 666philb's original Tahrpup 6.0.6 included an UEFI signature. RemasterX, created by shinobar before UEFI came on the scene, did not provide for its inclusion and the remastered version of Tahrpup 6.0.6 I made did not have it. So what I did was mount the remastered ISO, copy its files to a folder, add the UEFI files found in the original ISO, then dir2iso the folder.

As I don't have a computer which employs UEFI, I don't know if that 'doctoring' was successful. And I don't know if there might be a better way to manage it.
