Re: MX froze 2x today

MX is very stable in my experience, there might be two things that can affect its stability: hardware and software. For hardware check I recommend doing at least a RAM test at the start up to make sure everything looks OK, if the computer has its own test suite (Dell for example come with a diagnost...

Re: Semi-Rolling

I am not sure a word can describe precisely how we do things, for example we've been even less rolling than Debian, when Debian releases a new version it's possible to upgrade by changing the sources, usually when we release a new MX based on a new Debian version we recommend re-installation (althou...

Re: (solved)live-usb-maker does not work for me

I made a change in the MX-LUM to allow for spaces in source dir. Update will come soon from the pool.

Re: (solved)live-usb-maker does not work for me

I don't have an antiX installation at the moment, so I don't know. I'm referring to the dd option, by the way. MX-LUM's dd functionality does not work for me, while the dd option in live-usb-maker-gui does, on the same USB stick. That's strange, can you use the new MX-LUM I posted with logging enab...

Re: (solved)live-usb-maker does not work for me

Richard, can you please run the same command the GUI runs but directly in the CLI

Code: Select all

live-usb-maker gui -N  --label=MX18b409 -V -C off --from=/media/SD-NTFS/MX18b1x64-409-181213.iso -t /dev/sdd
Does that give the same error?

Re: (solved)live-usb-maker does not work for me

OK, built a new mx-live-usb-maker with logging enabled (it will spit messages to /var/log/mx-live-usb-maker.log) maybe that would give us a clue of what is going on. The new build is in our github repo:
64bit - https://github.com/MX-Linux/mx-live-usb ... _amd64.deb

Re: (solved)live-usb-maker does not work for me

OK, maybe it was something else, you could get a clue you start mx-live-usb-maker from the CLI and then copy the live-usb-maker command it generates again (with sudo in front) and see what error it displays. Again I should make it easier to troubleshoot, maybe write a log...

Re: (solved)live-usb-maker does not work for me

Not much info provided: MX-LUM-error.png I should provide more troubleshooting info, since I had that happening to me, I have found at least one cause of it. So for example if the ISO is on a system that doesn't allow mounting the ISO like for example in my case a shared VirtualBox folder the tool ...
