[SOLVED]No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found error

Post#1 by Hodor55 » 07 Sep 2024, 19:20

Hello guys I'm trying get Porteus working. I used gparted to create 2 partitions one fat32 and other ext4 formatted according to a comment I saw here. Copied the EFI folder in the FAT32 and Porteus plus boot folder in ext4 partition and ran the boot file(I did all of this in endeavour os since you can't do it in windows) but now I'm getting this error and can't boot it.

What should I do?

Some notes I use:

Code: Select all

## Run GParted to partition & format the USB drive with a msdos Partition table.  ##
##  Use GParted's View > Device Information to check Partition Table type.        ##
##  Use GParted's Device > Create Partition Table if Partition Table shows as GPT.##
## Or under Windows use:                                                          ##
## > diskpart          * Run Command Prompt with Admin Rights.                    ##
## > list disk                                                                    ##
## >....                                                                          ##
## > select disk 1     * Note: disk nbr is the nbr of the USB disk                ##
## > clean                                                                        ##
## > create partition primary                                                     ##
## > exit                                                                         ##

if i'm reading this correctly, the boot folder should be in the FAT32 partition with the EFI folder. (and just the porteus folder in the ext4)
