I want to install Puppy and EasyOS to folder in hdd partition

[deepforest]

Hi again.
I have standalode hdd partition with /home folders from several linux distros.
Can i make two folders at this partition for puppy and esayos and make it bootable from Devuan grub without loosing my userdata at this partition?
Is there instruction or gude for this?

[williwaw]

yes to both questions
a search for how to make a frugal install will return much info.

As you are working inside an existing devuan install, I would recommend making the frugal installs manually, as using some installers may cause problems with your existing OS

basics steps:

create the folders for each frugal at the top level of the partition you wish to use
/puppy and /easy will work well

1. extract the contents of the ISO or .img and copy the contents to the folder.
( if you are booted into an easy usb, you can easily mount (extract) the contents of the iso or img by clicking on it. when you click on the easy .img, two rox windows will open, and you should copy the contents of the rox window that contain initrd, easy and vmlimz)

2. adding a boot loader stanza to the existing devuan grub
you will need to know the uuid or label of the partition with /puppy and /easy.

post a copy of the existing devuan grub.cfg in a code block
(the </> symbol in the editor toolbar above)

For EasyOS : https://easyos.org/install/easy-frugal- ... ation.html

[mikeslr]

It's easier to do a hard-drive install of Puppys from a Puppy running from a USB-Keys. Puppys have all the tools you need. Not sure if any of your other Linuxes will.

"you will need to know the uuid or label of the partition with /puppy and /easy."

Open a terminal and type the command bklid.

Although Puppy's boot-manager creators --frugalpup-installer & grub2config-- MAY work to create a boot-manager listing Puppys and your 'Major' Distros, they may cause problems. Safest to boot into whichever Major Linux now provides the primary boot-loader and customize its menu. BarryK's post about EasyOS --Caramel provided the link-- contains this:

"That UUID value can be found by running the 'blkid' utility, for the example of EasyOS installed in partition /dev/sda3, with partition-label "easy2":

# blkid /dev/sda3
/dev/sdb2: LABEL="easy2" UUID="054a04b8-0f00-11ed-aeb9-287fcfeb4376" BLOCK_SIZE="4096" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="a3976784-02"

Considering GRUB2, the Author has no experience; however, gleaned from what others have done, the /etc/grub.d/40_custom file will need something like this inserted:

menuentry "EasyOS Dunfell (partition sda3, folder easyos)" {
insmod ext2
insmod search_fs_uuid
search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 054a04b8-0f00-11ed-aeb9-287fcfeb4376
linux /easyos/vmlinuz rw wkg_uuid=054a04b8-0f00-11ed-aeb9-287fcfeb4376 wkg_dir=easyos
initrd /easyos/initrd

Apparently, GRUB2 then needs to be updated, like this:

# update-grub
or, depending on your distribution:
# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

A clarification about those two parameters wkg_uuid and wkg_dir...

Clarification:
wkg_uuid and wkg_dir are not required by GRUB. They are kernel boot parameters and are read by the 'initrd' file, to tell it where EasyOS is installed. That is, they tell the 'initrd' in what partition and what folder 'easy.sfs' is located (and also where 'initrd' and 'vmlinuz' are located). It might seem redundant, since that information is already provided in the GRUB menu entry; however, the 'initrd' has to be told separately.

Something else that is useful to know: instead of wkg_uuid, you could use "wkg_label" or "wkg_dev", which for the above example would be "wkg_label=easy2" or "wkg_dev=sda3". However, you would need to be certain the filesystem label is unique. Also, for wkg_dev, you would need to be certain that the partition device name doesn't change; for removable drives, the device name is likely to change.

There is something to be aware of if using old GRUB bootloaders...

Problem with old GRUB versions:
GRUB v1, GRUB4DOS, and GRUB v2 prior to version 2.0.4 (released 2019), do not recognise an ext4 filesystem if it has modern features such as the "encrypt" feature turned on. You can still use them; however, the feature of EasyOS to encrypt some folders in the working-partition will not be available. Folder encryption is a security protection if someone steals your computer, or whatever media EasyOS is installed on. You will have to forego that extra protection."

Your boot stanza for puppy is not correct. The stanza for puppy is different.

See viewtopic.php?t=7100 for hints

A that moment you need to press a key (other than Enter) and then press Enter.

If you install again Easy, to avoid encryption, the simplest is not enter a password the first time it is asked during the first boot, but enter one when it is asked the second time

[Caramel]

2. try booting to easy at secondary and have this

You should start over. Maybe this problem comes from the one with the encryption

[deepforest]

Thanks. That because i previously brake booting at question of encryption.
I am delete all files except 'vmlinuz', 'initrd' and 'easy.sfs'
boot again and as you say upper disable encryption and booted normally

When deleting the contents of /easy, Note: there is the hidden file .session to delete.

If that doesnt work. then open the easy.IMG again and
recopy 'vmlinuz', 'initrd' and 'easy.sfs' to the folder
ie. remake the install with a fresh .initrd

Thanks man. Did as you suggest.
add
pfix=fsck pmedia=cd
to boot options at custom grub
booted ok and puppy successfully automatically loaded previously saved session that i save when worked at flash drive

[williwaw]

pmedia=cd.......

booted ok and puppy successfully automatically loaded previously saved session that i save when worked at flash drive :thumbup:

pmedia=cd will search extensively, even other drives..
psave = can specify where to find the save (faster than searching)

have you tried pmedia=ataflash otherwise known as pupsave 13?
it can save on demand via an icon on the desktop

"Press ENTER key to enable encryption, any other key not to..."

That sentence is terse. It means, "any other key not to, followed by ENTER"
