HOW TO REPRODUCE

1. Boot into Always Fresh Mode
2. Open a terminal
3. Copy all your data on a fresh formatted partition
4. Executes these commands:

   Code: Select all

   cd /mnt/sdXY/boot

   Code: Select all

   ./Porteus-installer-for-Linux.com

i have done two system ext4 and no trouble with the linux installer.are you shure that the media are formatted well in ext 4 and you have put the flag, boot? i use 64 bit

[Hamza]

Yes, I'm sure. Here is a screenshot of GParted about this partition.

i use sh instead ./ and the script i don't think it is different from 32 to 64 bit.. and the name of device is right? you have put in the changes folder if any?

[Hamza]

This works with sh, thanks. Why does this doesn't works natively just by using the selected interpreter at head of script?

[beny]

good hamza i have used always sh to run the bash script

@Hamza
as per:
http://files.porteus.org/screen.png

i see that installer detected your partition as 'aufs'.
you must have run this script from /root or any other folder in '/' and not /mnt/sdXY/boot

will try to tweak the installer to detect destination partition despite of the folder you are currently in.
