All appreciations for the work team - Porteus 5.0 _i586 iso is ok but x86_64 iso give an error for 002-xorg module
Tried to replace from Porteus 5.0rc3 but same error appear when base modules are loading
The error is also for Porteus 5.0 xfce , lxde , gnome
Also Porteus 4.0 x86_64 is working
Perhaps this post may help the team...all the best

Posting what the error msg says would be helpful and the specs of the machine you're booting it on, cause not everyone is getting the error.

Congratulations for new 5.0
I ran into a few problems:
1.
Encrypted dat file container [solved for xfs]
Can create savefile.dat, but it is unusable.
If previously created is used (from Porteus 4.0) can't decrypt it in boot time.
Аlready discussed in 5.0rc3 topic:
viewtopic.php?p=83384#p83384
viewtopic.php?p=83412#p83412
It is partially solved by replacing initrd.zx (can read already created dat file).
Same with
New initrd.xz and cheatcodes (boot parameters) for Porteus
Found that it works with xfs (does't work with ext2, ext4, and reiserfs)
thanks to
babam
2.
Samba
Problem using a shared NAS in local network (Windows shares also)
Тhis thread doesn't help:
viewtopic.php?p=83575#p83575
Tried with KDE, Cinnamon and XFCE.
Can see shares thru terminal:
Code: Select all
smbclient -L \\192.168.XX.XXX -N
guest@guest:~$ smbclient -L \\192.168.XX.XXX -N
Sharename Type Comment
--------- ---- -------
Cloud Disk
Droidbox Disk
IPC$ IPC IPC Service ("")
Reconnecting with SMB1 for workgroup listing.
Server Comment
--------- -------
Workgroup Master
--------- -------
WORKGROUP NAS520
guest@guest:~$ smbclient //192.168.XXX.XXX/Cloud -N
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED
3.
OpenConnect - last and less important
I have a module for openconnect VPN I (use it for work Cisco AnyConnect) that contains this four packages:
which works successfully with XFCE and Cinnamon, but does not want to work with KDE (it says Missing VPN plugin)

Check this out Porteus Kernel Builder (Post by AcnapyxoB #86279)
Yes, I confirm that encrypted dat file (which is used to save changes) works, but not creating one !

I don't understand, so what's the problem with Porteus 5.0 and encrypted save.dat?

It has already been written about:

screen during boot says:

Does the encrypted container work on 5.0rc3?

If it is created with Porteus 4.0 yes.
Sorry!
I'm just using the release of the new Porteus v5.0 to look for a solution to an old problem!
It's not that important, I just want things to get better

Is it the same encrypted container? on the same encrypted container doesn't work on Porteus 5.0 but works on 5.0rc3?

I've said it several times - .dat file works with Porteus 4.0, 5.0rc3 and 5.0, the script that creates the container doesn't work on 5.0rc3 and 5.0 !?
You need to use an old Porteus version (4.0) to create it.

old script was
shel script, the new one is
python
Ok I understand, the problem is with the Savefile Manager (/opt/porteus-scripts/make-changes).
I've never used Savefile Manager, I created a container manually using the terminal.

Noticed that the cheat code login=root no longer seems to work. It was fine in 5.0rc3! This is with XFCE.
Specifically using as in: APPEND noauto login=root libata.force=1.00:disable which worked fine before.
Just wondering if this is by design or something got broken.
