#################################################### # 2020/04/23 - PsychOS486 0.0.2:4 - linux-live 1.8 # #################################################### [0.0.2] I tried reinstalling llvm and change the config file in 'linux-live-2.3' from "VMLINUZ=/vmlinuz" to "VMLINUZ=/boot/vmlinuz-huge-3.10.107", thinking that since technically the "/boot/vmlinuz" is a symbolic link, that may be the issue; however, it didn't work but at least the custom bootlogo.png (./PsychOS486%202020:04:23%20-%20PsychOS486%200.0.2%20-%20BootImg.png) I made showed. I did find out from a lucky/randomly found PDF during an Internet search that Slackware 14.2 comes with script to make custom ISO's and such but seems to require kernel version 4.x but I'm not 100% sure yet and I'm thinking about borrowing these scripts from 14.2 to try to run on 14.1 and see what happens. [0.0.3] I partially figured out the issue with the boot menu and that is it is looking for a file called "/linux/boot/vmlinuz", so I used ISO Master to rename "vmlinux-huge-3.10.107" to simply "vmlinux" and it sort of worked but now there is some sort of 'aufs' issue, I think. According to https://linux-live.org/#changes, 'aufs' is used instead of 'unionsfs' and that might be why. So, I'm going to try using 'linux-live-1.8' (Jan 4th, 2013) version instead and see if it behaves differently. I also noticed binaries within its "./intramfs/static" folder with "i486" in their names so I'm taking that as a good sign, but we'll see. [0.0.4] Currently waiting on 'linux-live-1.8' to build an ISO. It didn't come with a config file even though its README mentions editing one so I'm using the one from 'linux-live-2.3. Also, I'm using 'vmlinux-huge-3.10.107-smp' this time if the defaults don't work for 1.8 since apparently, that's what the 'vmlinuz' symbolic link on the system was actaully using. However, '*-smp' is for motherboards with multiple processors on them and using 'smp' may slow things down on older computers. When the build script for 'linux-live-1.8 was finished, it created both an ISO and a ZIP. Booting from a DVD lead to the custom boot menu which then lead to "/" (root) with nothing inside of "/usr" and no 'startx'. Also, I just found out that the config file was there for 1.8 but it was hidden.
