And it didn't work either.
it's better to give this folder some unique name like porteus-xzm but it should work regardless as you are providing full path (/mnt/sda6). please show me output of following commands:
Code: Select all
cat /proc/cmdline
ls /mnt/sda6/porteus
ls /mnt/live/memory/images
thanks
My latest attempt hung the pc and I had to power off to reboot. What I did was;
start Porteus using the change= cheatcode to pick up my porteussave.dat changes,
used Porteus Settings Center to create a save session file named porteussession.dat on my NTFS partition,
renamed my porteus folder to porteussessions,
copied my porteussession.dat file to the porteussessions folder and renamed it porteussession.dat.xzm,
changed my extramod= cheatcode to point to /mnt/sda6/porteussessions
I may try using my porteussave.dat file instead next time.

Update
Using porteussave.dat.xzm helped, in that the system isn't hung but it's the same as Fresh mode.
Code: Select all
guest@porteus:~$ cat /proc/cmdline
quiet from=/ISOs/Porteus-RazorQT-v2.1-x86_64.iso extramod==/mnt/sda6/porteussessions
guest@porteus:~$ ls /mnt/sda6/porteussessions
porteussave.dat.xzm*
guest@porteus:~$ ls /mnt/live/memory/images

Update
This works though.
Code: Select all
guest@porteus:~$ cat /proc/cmdline
quiet from=/ISOs/Porteus-RazorQT-v2.1-x86_64.iso extramod=/mnt/sda6/porteussessions
guest@porteus:~$ ls /mnt/sda6/porteussessions
porteussave.dat.xzm*
guest@porteus:~$ ls /mnt/live/memory/images
000-kernel.xzm/ 001-core.xzm/ 002-xorg.xzm/ 003-razor.xzm/ 04-firefox.xzm/ porteussave.dat.xzm/
guest@porteus:~$
Anyone see the error before?
Thank you @fanthom and @brokenman.
