@Tahrbaby - is your problem happening in the standard BookwormPup64, or after my .pet is installed? I'm using a very different method to radky's, so they shouldn't clash.

Yes Sir @ozsouth .indeed it was occurring in the standard BokwormPup64 and nothing to do with your latest version.

Re: Do you prefer Firefox or Chromium as the default browser?

My preferred choice is Firefox as it suits all my requirements.
However,if it can still be available to download from the menu and the majority prefer Chromium,not a problem.

How is Htop any better than Top that is already in EasyOS (in System menu)?

Htop shows all cores of cpu usage,RAM usage and Swap partition.
Easier to configure from its GUI and is far better on the eyes.

This seemed to occur after I updated from 5.5.3.


With luck , the results of the commands

Which boot loader configuration file did you change - the one in the internal drive or the one in the flash drive?

I changed the grub.cfg file on the flash drive sdb1 because I want to boot from the sd card (sdb1) in this instance.

I'm using Limine to boot the internal drive/s when required.
