PS: I don't have any rotten parition in any machine actually, but if the preceeding settings to be checked doesn't bring a clue, then I suggest you do a new try, by reinstalling again the image iso on a fresh partition on your usb stick (even if it is at that rotten partition on hard drive that it stops to).



I will try a different USB stick with a new install just to be sure it is not the USB stick that is getting worn.

EDIT:
            Did a fresh live install to a second USB stick with the same results.

I am looking at a diff between packages in Lxde mini and thoses in Openbox Bonsai now.

I would like to ask you what filesystem type it the partition which contains the corrupted filesystem ?

Installing pclinuxos-openbox-bonsai-2010.11.12.iso to HP at present.  I already had the live cd up an running on my Dell E1705 and all went well, as expected. :)

Hi Jeff, and hi all,

Does anyone here read perl files ? If yes would you look into /usr/sbin/mylivecd with a good text editor providing syntax coloration, and tell me if unionfs is used or if it's aufs that is used ?

I can't get it by reading languages I don't know anything about. :/

ie:
lines 838 to 843:
Quote
   if ($o_ufs =~ m/^unionfs/) {
   do_cmd("perl -pi -e 's/aufs/unionfs/' $dir/linuxrc");
   do_cmd("perl -pi -e 's/AUFS/UNIONFS/' $dir/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit");
   do_cmd("perl -pi -e 's/aufs/unionfs/' $dir/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit");
   do_cmd("perl -pi -e 's/ro none/ro unionfs/' $dir/etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit");
   }

The internal help of the file explains theses options:
line number  180:   --ufs <unionfs|aufs>            Specify the union file system.

aufs is broken so we use unionfs


Thanks to everyone who donates. You keep the servers running.

Thank you !

This might explain Just19's issue ?

Let's try. I'll add "unionfs-tools" : which is unionfs... in the next version.

@Melodie
Get some old testboxes and put it on HDD in the next few days ;)
Install Firefox, OpenOffice, task-multimedia and gecko-mediaplayer.
Test driving the machines and tell you my findings.
On the computerclub (20 nov) I'll show your fast Bonsai (and the other mini versions) as a basic solution for older and new lap and desktops from where we can build a customized system exactly as wished.

Melodie ......  it might be more prudent to get someone who can confirm the event I reported ... before doing anything extra to the ISO .....

Hi Just19,

I'm not in a worry about this package. The worse it can do is add a little weight, and at best it will work better. Seeing the name I thought is was a tool : but I just downloaded the src rpm from our repos and read the description and link to sources in the spec file, and it's not a tool or a set of tools but unionfs itself. Texstar just said we use unionfs, therefore it looks to me like we use 2 filesystems for the isos : squashfs and unionfs.

The unionfs we use even seems outdated, but I would not know how to suggest an updated package, because I find only diff packages in their repositories...
http://www.fsl.cs.sunysb.edu/project-unionfs.html
http://download.filesystems.org/unionfs

I am installing Openbox Bonsai to a freshly formatted partition, from the last version (because I have changed the one installed to a french version) and will update and add unionfs-tools package at once.

Regards,
Mélodie

I installed bonsai on my 128mb machine. Livecd runs great, install had no problems. Setup ndiswrapper no problems. I'll start adding things and see what happens.
