this is not making it to pacman-settings.xzm:
/var/lib/pacman/local/ALPM_DB_VERSION
i added it manually and this fixes the repeated pacman-db-upgrade requests..(after reboot)
ssl cert problem with pacaur...
Code: Select all
root /home/guest # pacaur -s adwaita
error: [adwaita]: Problem with the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?)

I guess you have no problems with reboot for a HD install. Can you share any tips on why yours is OK while mine is hanging on reboot?

minor bug
unsquashed the core XZM and starting to look at MC at possible broken links etc
Here is one for you to consider
good sym link ...../usr/bin/iptables sym links to xtables-multi
bad link /usr/bin/iptables-xml sym links to /usr/bin/xtables-multi
IMHO it should be
Code: Select all
cd usr/bin
rm -rf iptables-xml
ln -s xtables-multi iptables-xml

missing file, broken sym links and possible improve sym link for ssl
unsquashed core XZM with snip
Code: Select all
root@asus:/tmp/squashfs-root/etc/ssl# ls -al cert*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 46 Nov 17 15:47 cert.pem -> ../ca-certificates/extracted/tls-ca-bundle.pem
certs:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Nov 17 15:47 ca-certificates.crt -> /etc/ssl/cert.pem
ls -al ../ca-certificates/extracted/
#### bundle pem not found
root@asus:/tmp/squashfs-root/etc/ssl/certs# ls -al *
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 17 Nov 17 15:47 ca-certificates.crt -> /etc/ssl/cert.pem
but because the original file is missing we have 2 broken sym links IMHO
possible rebuild sym link commands
After you put the real file in /etc/ca-certificates/extracted/tls-ca-bundle.pem
Code: Select all
cd etc/ssl/certs
ln -s ../../ca-certificates/extracted/tls-ca-bundle.pem ca-certificates.crt
and the use of ../ ../ makes it more likely to troubleshoot broken sym links on unsquash?

and I don't want to pretend I know more than you so will flog a dead horse only one more time.
unsquashed core XZM with snip and looking at MC
Code: Select all
ls -al etc/systemd/system/default*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 41 Nov 17 15:47 etc/systemd/system/default.target -> /usr/lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target
# original file exists OK but try this instead??
cd etc/systemd/system
rm -rf default.target
ln -s ../../../usr/lib/systemd/system/multi-user.target default.target

as touched on by aus9>
ssl problem:
Code: Select all
#ls /etc/ca-certificates/extracted/
*nothing*
you may have inadvertantly stripped the certs?
reinstalling
ca-certificates-cacert gives:
Code: Select all
# ls /etc/ca-certificates/extracted/
ca-bundle.trust.crt cadir email-ca-bundle.pem objsign-ca-bundle.pem tls-ca-bundle.pem
removes the ssl error > pacaur now searches
@aus9 ..... i've only tested using install to usb(4gigflash stick?thumbdrive?)
one partition(ext4) using syslinux(via installer)
havnt had much exprience with grub..

Yes but you are way ahead of me, because you seem to be able to reboot without hanging at kernel message screen while I am lost in the electrical ether
Can you reveal your boot or cheat code please?
thanks in advance

http://forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php? ... =15#p38930
as simple as it gets:
Code: Select all
quiet initrd=initrd.xz BOOT_IMAGE=vmlinuz
might lose the quiet tho....

thanks I will give that a shot.
Yes I did see that post, but I am a kind of changes cheatcode type and failed to recognise the significance in the way you have
---I am a good blonde
thanks again......EDIT
Yep back in, hd boot up is nice and fast.
I have a FF unpacked on my partition so I get to forum with my fav browser by running
/mnt/sda3/1bak/firefor/firefox
restore bookmarks from same backup folder
thanks again

possible bug unsure
unsquashed core XZM
/etc/arch-release is an empty file
maybe it should sym link to usr/lib/os-release that has this contents?

slightly offtopic edit I lied....rebooted and module is already activated
Now that I have a way to boot up, sorry for taking so long but needed help by
ncmprhnsbl
I speed up my changes by this command
Code: Select all
su
activate $MODDIR/pacman-settings.xzm
Success.
EXIT="OK"
Which I think is weird.
Nemesis is already defining my old changes MODDIR and has already activated my pacman settings
that is good but not what I was expecting!

slightly offtopic but exciting news
OK just looked at my porteus(nemesis) changes folder and its still got my root passwd file change in etc/shadow
but su to root is still using toor.
I rebooted with my inxi XZM in modules and its loading
therefore, if you make a XZM with any changes you need and put it in modules dir, it should carry over on reboot.
I will try this now to resolve my usb kb and mouse, but can't promise I will have it resolved tonite
I will sacrifice a beer to appease the Porteus gurus
