Nope! I used "your work" for a while before you had one of your tantrums and pulled the plug. 'Your work' as such is unstable (and rides on the back of giants) best deleted as you did and ignored/forgotten.

Just to name the last one you use often:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... ce5#949933

You are welcome.

Every DD thread or page or commit started by me shows I ride on the back of giants (Debian and Debian-live teams). I wouldn't hide that for one minute.

Please, dont turn this into a fight. I wrote nothing wrong or false and you know it.

Play with, not use. I use core (pure) Debian as my main boot (frugally booted). But periodically play around with a range of others. I moved over to that due to the instability of DebianDog.

Hi rufwoof!
I moved over to that due to the instability of DebianDog.
Could you please elaborate a bit further on this . Would be quite informative and helpful to know about .

Correction, frugally booted in a very special way. Empty squashfs with all system content in persistence (file, folder or partition). The way I made the very first DebianDog base years ago, booting with persistence read-only most of the time and save on demand when you need. All this discovered or invented and shared by me after exploring the live-boot scripts. I'm sure you know this very well and you have the source inside your version save on demand script changed for live-boot newer version.
Fred gave you the links to this part of my work.

You are welcome one more time.

Name calling again. Did I ever call you insulting names?
You ride on my back, rufwoof. Shame on you!
This conversation with you really starts to look like troll behaviour. No more answers from me on that subject in this thread.

Don't use that at all now. All pure Debian only. After the plug was pulled on DebianDog I did try various things and had to get into coding things for myself. But settled on pure Debian so as to avoid the need to do and maintain that, as provided by the debian live project/team.

All in filesystem.squashfs except for /boot and /home - which is on a second partition so that changes under /home are preserved (persistent). Plymouth glow graphical boot theme

title Jessie
find --set-root /live/jessieamd64lxde
kernel /vmlinuz boot=live quiet splash
initrd /initrd.img

root that is only ever used at the command prompt level due to the insecurities in X
standard userid that is used as a admin under gui and for access/moving personal files in and out of its secure area
restricted userid that is generally used for browsing/internet (most often used userid).

For kernel updates I just extract the filesystem.squashfs to / and boot as though a full install, apply updates and reform a new filesystem.squashfs

No extra repositories and just use main (no contrib or non-free) ... using the proper Debian repositories

deb http://deb.debian.org/debian jessie main
deb http://security.debian.org/ jessie/updates main

In short ... nothing of yours. And I most certainly wouldn't thank you for the headache caused by DebianDog being abandoned.

You are welcome anyway. Headache borns the great ideas. Open source projects come and go and we all step on the shoulders of those before us and move forward and higher. I made sure DebianDog is a self-maintaining system and the review page confirms this:
Bottom Line
The earlier versions of DebianDog work flawlessly...
Fred also agrees there wouldn't be XenialDog without DebianDog.
Even Debian has one more passanger - rufwoof.
Nothing is lost ;)

Don't worry, it will come :)
Also I'm working now on a NEAT! tool called "whatami"
It's a work in progress... the purpose is to find out if you are a troll.
Also coming up a WOW! tool "whatishe" it gives advice how to handle trolls etc...
So keep watching this thread!!

Preview of whatishe:
(need to work on some more tips and tricks, but already useful I think)

Code: Select all

  Ok, but don't let it happen again!

Hope not, backi. I will not really test again any scripts from Fred. Just kidding about that.
Unfortunately rufwoof didn't take my advice here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... 7f3#956950
I wrote nothing insulting or not related to Ubuntu/Debian/Xenial and Fred many times stated it is on-topic.

I will not take any part in this further.

Sorry Dr. backi, I should have better kept my mouth shut.
Probably there will be no next time, but if there is just write:
hi fred ! SHUTUP
(then I know and will obey your orders, but don't forgot to add some smilies :) )

The only thing that bothers me here is 'boot time', it really needs to be reduced! I haven't looked into it yet, and when I do I will sort it out ... eventually! Maybe not to everyone's liking, but that doesn't seem to bother me much ... because I am greater than what I do!! Cheers 8)

Just a tip:
Porteus-boot (initrd) loads list of modules blindly no matter if the hardware needs them or not. Removing some of the modules from the list will speed up the boot process a little. Removing the kernel drivers missing in the modprobe command list from initrd will reduce also its size.
