I kept it on an usb and that worked too. But I am unsure of if I had your file or the 1.9.61 zeitgeist. At one moment it said it was 61 and not 60. Well I can always do it again I guess. Thanks indeed for caring about me.by newbody - [OLD] - Installed Mode
Yes I had read that one and not fully grasped it and feel unsure now too. Upgrade to 2.0 but in live version then. But that works only if I have a booted version already. So I still need to have the usb in the slot or usbjack. QuoteLeanMoha when you reboot it boots straight into the liveCD mode from the ISO file.

Thanks indeed for sending me the link to how to dl the file. Hope it is stable. Hahah, telling the grub to boot from usb actually did work indeed. It is a live system that is a hybrid sort of. Half of it is placed on the hdd and rest on the usb. I copied the vmlinuz and the initrd to the same place as the original where placed in boot. that way they could be reached through the bootby newbody - [OLD] - Installed Mode

The the new iso based installer. Wow how does that work. Sounds intesting indeed. Do you remember how I can read about it. I try to do a google. is it named that way? elive iso installer maybe? Would be cool to test. I have struggled now for a long time to get the usb going and it fails. Are there no easy way to tell grub to mount the usb and load the os from the usb?by newbody - [OLD] - Installed Mode
I did dl your file and made an usb to boot but typically the old compaq refuse to let me boot it. Surprise, it does let me boot a 4GB with Topaz on it but not the older unstable. Used same program in windows to make it with. So all should be same except other smaller usb. I guess me have to make a DVD to boot then.by newbody - [OLD] - Installed Mode
I think about the paypal later. I am in no hurry. Thanks for telling your experience of it and for sending the file. Much appreciated. Since then I have found that puppy431std can do everything that elive can so no hurry getting it to work.

Now it works! Thanks Are you sure that the 60 is that much better than the 61 they have now? I mean will it really solve my problem with getting a stable os? okay worth a try that is for sure but have you tested both? Or have others reported problems with the ...61 that ...60 didn't have?by newbody - [OLD] - Installed Mode
did not work for me. Maybe some ad block issue or something with them. could you go to the link as a common user and see if it works for you. I guess it works as an upload but it says there is not file there now when I look. Since I wrote my post I found out that mtPaint in puppy431std had a screenshot that worked in same way.

Sadly the whole full install crashed after a hard reboot. I could not do a regular shut down because could not even start up terminal to write kill or shutdown or whatever.

one of the moderators here knew that it was a gnome-utils thing so I tried to download that one but didn't know how to activated it and after that I had the crash of the HDD that made elive stop working.

something went wrong when the OS wanted to repair something on the harddisk after a cold reboot so it went south and failed to boot so I wonder if you could help me find a safe downlad of the one you recommended. I have elive_1.9.61-zeitgeist_unstable.iso because that was the only one apart from 2.0 that one could download.

elive_1.9.61-zeitgeist_unstable.iso is really unstable it broke down now So I will try to find the elive_1.9.60_unstable.iso instead and install that one and hope that one work with what AlexAnteMachina told me about "gnome-screenshot" and is part of the "gnome-utils" package.

Typical of me to fail to make it work. I did to the best of my knowledge as you wrote but it didn't take. I had to write setxkbmap se in the terminal to get åäö.

Thanks, oops why did I not thought of that one. I trusted too much that I have already told it I want setxkbmap se so I did trust the OS to remember that to next time. I do as you describe tomorrow.
