You guys are so advanced! I'm using no cheatcodes at all!

@Ed_P, what's the meaning of reboot=cold?

Code: Select all

quiet \boot\syslinux\vmlinuz nomagic login=root norootcopy initrd=boot\syslinux\initrd.xz

That is AF with norootcopy...

A cold boot is similar to booting after the machine has been turned off, all the RAM is initialized. Not sure when I started using it or who suggested it to solve what problem I was having but I've been using for some time.

@n0ctilucient
initrd.xz is the first boot step. It will be read, decompressed and stored in ram, building a skeleton of folder "/" and directing the computer to load the necessary minimal working application.

You can decompress it and take a look at it.

Regards!

How does your /boot/syslinux/porteus.cfg file compare with the /porteus/porteus-v4.0-x86_64.cfg file? Do you put any cheatcodes in there too?

Hi.
Now I use:

Code: Select all

APPEND initrd=initrd.xz from=/dev/sda6 nocd zram=5% changes=/mnt/sda1/ timezone=Europe/Warsaw noload=000-lxde extramod=/mnt/sda1/porteus/modules/

Porteus
