OR Do you prefer some other procedure to create the test distro with the kernel? Thanks in ...

Re: NTFS drive states it is read-only once again

@Jasper

NTFS became read-only if the file system was dirty, the Windows in hibernate state, or the Windows use fast boot which also hibernate the system. The solution was disable fast boot on windows 10 or use puppy kernel with NTFS3 kernel module support.

Re: Why developers are not making any interest in building apps for linux?

Biggest reason:

1. Lack of application framework consistency

* Networking
* Package management

You need PAM+libpam-elogind for elogind to work, but Puppy uses busybox login.

Slackware has PAM and installed it however when I swapped busybox login with login binary from util-linux, threw PERMISSION DENIED error message and the Puppy wont login on tty1. Any ideas how to solve this?

elogind is the standalone systemd-free session and seat manager. It allows to run apps that depend on systemd such as rustdesk, teamviewer without systemd at all.
