Crazy install > boot from GRUB < nomagic base_only norootcopy
Posted: 03 May 2025, 03:33
After booting the extracted ISO, without adding anything like:
"from=/porteus changes=/porteus"
or FINALLY
"nomagic base_only norootcopy"
... the system wouldn't start certain services, rendering it inoperable.
Porteus added to Grub menu, not so "easy"
I simply ran the installer and the miracle happened
for the second time.
egrep: warning: egrep is obsolescent; using grep -E
If I'm using this "bizarre" version of Porteus, it's because my Bluetooth works, and since I use my Desktop computer 24/7 for work, I sometimes need to turn off the speakers.
I continue booting Porteus from GRUB, with the 10-second delay of the "error" message: "cheatcode is incorrect"
and now Porteu
from LILO on the hard drive.
Thank you for your attention!
