Hi down8ve you can add to xorg.conf. Scroll down to where is says Section "Screen" and add the 2 options as below Option "InitialPixmapPlacement" "2" Option "GlyphCache" "1"by frugga - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Hi If you have installed elive on your hdb1 then I think grub is looking at the wrong drive, try changing root (hd0,0) to root (hd1,0)by frugga - [OLD] - Installed Mode
OK An easier way is to download an already formatted persistent file from here, Unzip and copy to your USB drive which should already be a bootable elive system, then just change to persist=casper-rw Your USB drive would need to be at least a 4GB capacity. Alternately boot from an Elive CD insert the USB drive and follow the instructions in my 2nd post to create the file of whatevby frugga - [OLD] - Live mode
oops sorry about that. I have tried this on a 4GB sandisk cruzer too and it works, just adjust the size of count=512 to whatever you want eg,1000 will create a 1GB persistent file. remember elive will use up about 700M of the drive. Boot from your elive USB drive. write down the commands dd if=/dev/zero of=/media/disk/live-rw bs=1M count=512 mkfs.ext3 -F 4096 /media/disk/live-rwby frugga - [OLD] - Live mode
use unetbootin to copy the elive iso to a 4gb usb drive, then boot into elive using the newly created usb. open a terminal window and type in su so you are root. Then using the dd command to make a file of 512M Type dd if=/dev/zero of=/elive/.mnt/cdrom/live-rw bs=1M count=512. Then format the newly created file in ext3 using mkfs.ext3 -F 4096 /elive/.mnt/cdrom/live-rw answerby frugga - [OLD] - Live mode
