Re: The Debian-Live Daedalus Starter Kit

I have posted here a kernel upgrade package based on Daedalus Backports k6.6.13. Just drop the files into your "live" folder. This kernel upgrade serves two purposes: 1. It has drivers for some newer WiFi cards that have entered the mainstream kernel and will now work OOTB. 2. It has the a...

Re: The Debian-Live Daedalus Starter Kit

I also have a Braswell-era Chromebook, but with the full UEFI firmware conversion. I set up a UEFI-bootable SD card, installed the Starter Kit and switched to the Sid kernel. It booted and ran OK, but slowly. [Edit] I changed the boot arguments to "copy2ram" and "changes=EXIT:". ...

Re: The Debian-Live Daedalus Starter Kit

The Daedalus k6.1.0-9-amd64 wifi driver pack is here.

It contains the rtl 88x2bu driver which supports the obda:b812 device. In your PeasyWifi Config, make sure to set "DRIVER=nl80211".

According to my notes, the old protocol "DRIVER=wext" no longer works with this device.

rebuilding it is hard when you can't easily find what is missing.

If you have a system with correct package management, you don't need to go looking for missing stuff.

I looked at this ISO and it appears to have LESS b43 firmware than previous versions. A member of the Bionic team needs to look at this. There may be a separate package of b43 firmware somewhere on the forum.

Please state the exact version and how you installed it.

The package bionicpup32-8.0-uefi.iso has an fdrv.sfs file that appears to contain the required firmware for your BCM4318.

Have you included this file in your install?

Re: How to clone current frugal to new ssd?

This machine sounds like a desktop/tower with multiple internal drives. Is sda the new drive?

On the other drives, rename any grub.cfg files so GRUB will ignore them.

peppyy : I don't believe that you have stated how this machine boots - in legacy BIOS mode or in UEFI mode. This is crucial because it determines what stuff must be on the new hard drive. If you are in legacy mode, you must do a GRUB2 install that puts its Stage1 code on the MBR of the drive. This ...

This appears to be a Ghostscript problem. I dropped in a very old GS package and got some printing to work. But that's not a solution.
