Currently, pupmode=66 fails with overlay but this should be fixed in the next Woof-CE build of BW64. Works like a charm now - thanks whoever fixed it :thumbup: everything works fine now! BW is a litle heavy on the ram about +160 on my lenovo gaming 3 compared to F96-CE - but runs smooth :thumbup: K...

First is what radky posted what you did?

Are you using the latest version of the Frugalpup Installer?
https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?t=337

Yes thats what i did - using the stickpupinstaller in F96-ce

Need more details. Save is what type, file or folder? If file, what size did you make it? Save is stored on a partition formatted what format? I assume you are choosing the same boot menu entry, each time you boot? Are you adding any software to Bookworm? If using a save file, it for sure has the f...

Hi there
im on a lenovo ideapad gaming 3 and bookworm runs fine with nomodeset aded to grub.cfg
that is first save works. but on 2 shutdown and 2 save, the save deletes and it starts up from first run again with everything from beginning?

what am i doing wrong?

Gnimmelf

Gnimmelf, since you've already downloaded the ISO and have F96-ce deployed, I have no better idea than to swap the vmlinuz and zdrv from F96-ce for those which were in Revival's ISO. That is move Revival's vmlinuz and zdrv_bionicpup64_8.0.sfs out of the way* and copy F96-ce's vmlinuz and zdrv_fossa...

Gnimmelf

Hi Gnimmelf. Thanks for trying Revival and reporting the problem. And thanks, fred for suggesting a possible solution. Could be that the kernel from here, https://www.forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=85640&sid=0437e40428fef37d368687e413e1e202#p85640 just doesn't play well with your ideapad ...

Gnimmelf

tried 3 different locaitions including yours - it usually does work? Yes, I did many times, nomodeset should work from the "linux .." line (where kernel options must be specified), so obviously something else is wrong. if i boot up without the "nomodeset" bionic crashes the seco...

Gnimmelf

i hear you! i just thought that Puppy linux doesnt get the attention it really deserves! and that it could be helped by a bunch of good and sincere reviews from happy puppy people

Gnimmelf

https://distrowatch.com/table.php?distribution=puppy There was around 185 reviews posted, but now they show 45. Not as big a sample of reviews as other Linux OS's, shown on DistroWatch. All developers of Puppy Linux versions and Woof-CE, should look at the really low ratting reviews. Those are good...

Gnimmelf

how should one go about installing KLV-Airedale-rc17 kernel 6.1.29 the right way? could you point mr to at "how to"?

kindly Gnimmelf

Gnimmelf

ok - stickpup says "no frugalpup" in directory. via unetbootin clicking on usb after install provides 2 grub.cfg files one on first click says: # set default=0 set timeout=5 set menu_color_normal='yellow/blue' set menu_color_highlight='black/cyan' if [ $grub_platform = 'efi' ]; then loadfo...

Gnimmelf

Black screen after blue bootloaderscreen says: "error: not a directory error: you need to load the kernel first" it happens both with grub2 and grub4 If i just use unetbootin - it just passes by to F96-ce installed on my harddisk. doesnt do that with other distroes installed on usb F96-ce ...

Gnimmelf

In fact the firmware (or better, the new kernel combined with the i915 firmware) is the problem. More about this, see discussion in the DD Bookworm thread, fix suggested by @gumanzoy works : Try to boot with i915.enable_dc=0 https://forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic.php?p=90186#p90186 not shure how to...

Gnimmelf

tried this via stickpup and unetbootin on a usb. both failed? screen on pc (lenovo ideapad 3 laptop) goes to black and says "you need to load kernel first" or something like that.... doesnt hapen on F96-ce, bookworm etc? anybody got a clue why thats happening? (im not that skilled... :-) )...

Gnimmelf

did it

pfix=nocopy doesnt seem to make much of a difference....
what does it do? how can i see if it works?

just curious

kindly Gnimmelf

Gnimmelf

im not shure what im suposed to do? i deleted what whas in the black boxes and replaced it with "pfix=nocopy"
that didnt work - it broke the boot up

kindly Gnimmelf

Gnimmelf

To save RAM at bootup, add the pfix=nocopy parameter to your boot configuration file

how to do that?

imppup works like a breeze! up and running with only around 290 mb ram in use! why isnt it developed on? it runs on a newer kernel than jammypup an uses lesser ram? is it getting outdated? kindly Gnimmelf i wonder if this somehow was a stupid question...? :lol: can someone enlighten me? kindly Gnim...
