Porteus

Hi All,

I'm trying to move a Porteus 1.1 usb key to Porteus 2.0 but i have to face some issues.

I'm using this cheatcode line:

APPEND initrd=initrd.xz root=/dev/ram0 rw autoexec=xconf;telinit~4 lxde toroot nosound splash=verbose

And startx doesn't start...Last error message is: "INIT: Id "x1" respawning too fast: disabled to 5 minutes",

Then if i press enter, system ask me for root password in console mode :-(

Any idea?

Thanks for your help

hi banshee22,

porteus-2.0 has different cheatocde set (much simpler) please use these: if you are using 32bit version then please remove 'lxde' cheatcode as LXDE is not present for this arch.

Thanks for your answer Fanthom. It's really nice to have so quick answer each time!

Is there really any way to have lxde on 32 bits ?

Now you can have any desktop on any arch.

Great!

I tried Porteus 2.1, 32 bits lxde.

I've always the message boot message:
/usr/sbin/lxdm: line 31: /usr/sbin/lxdm-binary: cannot execute binary file
.....
"INIT: Id "x1" respawning too fast: disabled to 5 minutes",

I've the same message if I try to execute /usr/sbin/lxdm-binary extract from 003-lxde.xzm ...

So is there definitively no way to have lxde on porteus 32 bits?

Finally, I decided to try porteus 2.1 rc2 32 bits, lxde. It works well but I would be happy to make some comments about it... Where is it possible? (lost in the forum ;-) )
