SliTaz SliTaz Forum archive

This forum is now a read-only archive

The SliTaz community has moved to Maille, a forum made for SliTaz.

We looked hard for a replacement for this aging forum, including a move from bbPress to FluxBB last June. But spam bots now get through sign-up even with mail confirmation, and these forum engines are barely maintained anymore. So we wrote a forum in the SliTaz spirit: small, fast, no JavaScript, works on old machines and in text browsers. Everything here stays readable.

Problem running SliTaz from multiboot USB drive

Hello,

I am trying to run SliTaz from a multiboot USB drive (which I've configured using these instructions: Boot Multiple ISO from USB via Grub2 using Linux).

I downloaded slitaz-3.0.iso to the USB drive and checked the MD5 hash. All good.

The grub.cfg menuentry on the USB drive looks like this:

[c]

menuentry "SliTaz 3.0" {

loopback loop /iso/slitaz-3.0.iso

linux (loop)/boot/bzImage rw root=/dev/null lang=C kmap=us screen=1024x768x16 autologin

initrd (loop)/boot/rootfs.gz

}

[/c]

The problem is that when I select SliTaz 3.0 from the Grub menu, it doesn't boot into the desktop, but to the following terminal:

[c]

Welcome to your box.

SliTaz boot time: 7s

SliTaz GNU/Linux Kernel 2.6.30.6-slitaz tty1

slitaz login:

[/c]

If I login is as tux (and no password), run startx, click OK on the next two screens ("Configure X" and "Install Xorg"), then I get the following:

[c]

Quit...

/usr/bin/startx: exec: line11: /home/tux/.xsession: not found

[/c]

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks
