rootdelay does not change anything - - I think it has something to do with syslinux http://hg.slitaz.org/wok/file/3f48e3a93cd7/syslinux/receipt
I will try on sunday to change isolinux from old iso to the iso from 30. with isomaster
Pascal - you did all the syslinux changes - why the first line - Start SliTaz - disappeard in the first boot screen?

I had the problem in hd install where sydlinux is not involved, i don't think that it could be the reason why.
System.sh does some check on /proc before to call soundconf (where the 5% message come from) and then locale got set.
I would check mountpoint and sequences inside script
Offline
Ernia I think you already solved it!
there must be just set locale before starting soundcard.conf
http://hg.slitaz.org/slitaz-boot-scripts/file/b08c444c5675/etc/init.d/system.sh
and it explains also, that it does not effect all computers, because, when soundcard is detected before, then soundconf will not start and ask for locale...
# Start soundconf to config driver and load module for Live mode
67 # if not yet detected.
68 /usr/bin/amixer >/dev/null || /usr/sbin/soundconf

someone should try your guess, i'm trying tu up qt to 4.8.4 and to pack calibre for slitaz, i cannot shutdown pc because it's almost always building something.
i don't think it's so easy but when i'll end with calibre i'll try to understand.
also debugging dbus and udisks would be important, there is a lot of work to do...

@kultex: I want to force people to choose a keyboard and avoid launching X11 twice during boot (for keyboard and locale selection)
Offline
@pascal - thats a good idea, if evrything is working, but for me it was the only possibility to start the iso....
@ernia - there is a lot to do, but I think its necessary to get cooking to boot proper... I will try tomorrow wit bootoption sound=no - this should avoud soundconf
Offline
i rebooted and got 5% error :-)
i can confirm that the bug should be in soundconf. in my case it has been called by system.sh in the elif case in sound configuration : /usr/bin/amixer >/dev/null || /usr/sbin/soundconf
i putted an echo "string" at row 330 where soundconf starts and the string has been echoed and then dreaded 5% box appeared...
debug go on :-)
PS it's a timing problem, today a removed a sleep 15 which was before the sound if-elif-else and ta-dah, 5% is back.
could be something related to /proc not already be mounted?
back to qtwebkit2...
Offline
just as info - in erlier versions of cooking, there was more info - there was the 5% and
canntot open locale definition file 'de_DEeuro': no such file or directory
Offline
there are some gettext() in soundconf, could it be the origin of the locale message?
also locales for supported languages are not present but only get generated by tazlocale, if tazlocale has not already be called when soundconf runs gettext probably don't know what to do, i don't know if this can cause the system to hang
Offline
just tried that new version (in a vbox)
for me the soundcard issue is solved
Inserting a usb key, lsusb shows the device but it does not appear in pcmanfm
Minor annoyance with the "documentation" icon which is "below" the top panel :s
and tazpkg get-install as well as seemling dns connection are very very slow, not sure why; not my network. Could be tied to vbox but this has not shown in the past.
Will install it on a vdisk and do some tests.
Missing the USB key recognition though
Offline
it always worked in a vbox if you have a soundblaster in your virtual machine.
Offline
@christophe - quite stupid statement to say, that a problem is solved only testing vmware.... and see the first post in this thread to solve your stick problem
@pascal
how do I enter now cheatcodes - it seems, that cheatcodes dont have any effect - at least soundconf seems to be started all the time

I have set the language in grub -

this is interesting, because locale is set, before system.sh is called - quite a mess with locale

Conclusion of my tests:
1) I tried to start the CD from the abit several times - all the time with a cold reboot and sometimes it boot and sometimes it hangs - just by chance, no regularity
2) On all the old machines it hangs
So this means that if setting locale from cmdline is finished, when system.sh starts, than it boots, when setting locale is not finished - what is all the time on older pcs - it hangs.
So changing setting locale with setting up the soundcard in system.sh should solve the problem
And
setting locale is quite messy and still the question, how do I enter cheatcodes
Offline
The hell is this? Why cannot I update system using packages from my local repo?

New midori-0.4.8 is out.
http://mirror.netcologne.de/xfce/src/apps/midori/0.4/midori-0.4.8.tar.bz2
i tried to install after downloading but without success. don't know how to compile.
the midori-0.4.6 crashes sometimes when i hit any flash or when i want to download a file e.t.c. and i can not login/logout for example in facebook or kwick (kwick is a german comunity platform, wher some of my best friends always uses).
is there somebody who can compile this new midori version in hope for better performance of the above?
sorry for my poor english, but i try my best ;-)
Offline
pushed:
http://hg.slitaz.org/wok/rev/0ce92f0f1b66
i think that you should find built package here
http://cook.slitaz.org/
after 8.00 PM
please, report here if there is something wrong.
PS here it is http://cook.slitaz.org/cooker.cgi?download=midori-0.4.8.tazpkg

@ernia
you are so quick. i downloaded and installed by tazpkg. but midori start fails in sakura with:
tux@slitaz:~$ midori
midori: symbol lookup error: midori: undefined symbol: webkit_get_favicon_database
tux@slitaz:~$
i use SliTaz GNU/Linux 4.0 from 04/07/2012. the original midori-0.4.6 version starts with:
tux@slitaz:~$ midori

i built it for cooking, sorry, i'll try with stable but will not push it, i'll share here even if the topic is cooking related

Hi ernia,
May I ask? Why --disable-libnotify and --disable-unique? Interesting to test both, new and "full" new midori...
First for notifications, I know. And I know how to force it to work: add missing dependency - notification-daemon (I wrote on forum few months ago).
Second, I don't know what 'unique' do.
Offline
Aleksej, notifications now have an ugly tray icon, that cannot be disabled.
As for 'unique' - it's libunique. Library to check, that only one software instance is running.
Offline
i left them disabled thinking that who builds midori before me knew what to do, i think that it's to keep live iso tiny and with less dependencies.
i disabled zeitgeist because it's not in slitaz and it's enabled by default, hildon configure option seems to be disappeared.
Offline
The next stable release is probably still a couple of months away. Time enough for a few minor improvements, I hope. How about this ...
I build my customised live CDs with a script that among many other things removes more than 20 packages from vanilla SliTaz. But as "tazpkg remove" always prompts for a confirmation this requires lots of typed feedback. Wouldn't it be nice if the tazpkg parser had something like a "-y" parameter?
Offline
does
[c]yes | tazpkg remove[/c]
work for you?
Offline
... yes, it does. Brilliant, ernia. Thanks very much.
