(old)Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

My config is: puppy v108+ installed on hdd1 which drive is dedicated to puppy, debian sid on hdb1. I boot from debian's grub.
When I boot or reboot to debian after a puppy session, during boot I get a message that '/dev/hdd1 was not cleanly umounted, check forced'
Doesn't matter I shutdown/reboot computer from puppy's menu or first go to prompt switching off X and type 'poweroff'.
When I boot or reboot back to puppy after a puppy session, during boot I do not see any complain of dirty umount of the puppy drive.

Grub parameters for puppy are: quiet vga=791 noacpi nosci dma.

I searched the forum but haven't got any clue.

Though I've changed from ext2 to ext3 filesystem on puppy drive, which recovers the drive quickly and safe way but I wonder what the reason is, and would like to avoid it.

Appreciate for any hint

Thnx cherrie,

I'll check it and come back to tell about result.

So it seems the hints from the suggested thread works.
I applied this to rc.sysinit-hd as it was suggested by GuestToo and there's no more complain about puppy drive:

change:

echo "Cleaning up system... "
rm -rf /tmp/*

to:

echo "Cleaning up system... "
mv /tmp/rc.reboot /rc.reboot-tmp
rm -rf /tmp/*
mv /rc.reboot-tmp /tmp/rc.reboot

Also many thanks for costal martignier who recognised this bug and sent his issue the forum.

Hindsight so easy but I took strange that 'poweroff' script tried to run the /tmp/rc.reboot script while there wasn't such file in /temp directory. Now, after modification there's the file.

Great hint, cherrie, thanks a lot!
