Hello all... haven't been on a Puppy forum since the old ??? Murga maybe??
I started at I believe version 2 or late 1 maybe
In the beginning, being naive, up to version 3, I was partitioning, and full loading complete with Grub.. since then, been booting from CD with a Save File, just recently booting from USB... Yea... I'm slow!
Currently running Fossa64 on my main Laptop...happens to be an old Dell. From the beginning, the usb boot has given zero problems... but, I mostly boot from CD with a Save file... I must have done something wrong tho. When I shut down, it is very Fast... so fast, that when I boot back, I always get the Script that (loop4 maybe) was not cleanly unmounted... so fsck is Forced... Did Not seem to be causing problems... but, began paying attention to the Contiguous part!!
It is escalating now... it is up to 32 percent, non contiguous, and no doubt will continue this trend..
Operating in pupmode 12, and initrd/init, seems to shows pmedia=cd... good or Not...I thought pmedia should be atahd??
Possibly, I screwed sonething up when I was trying to get Wireless printing going, which will wait for now!!
Bottom line, is it Probable that the unclean, unmounting, indeed causing loss of contiguous-ness??
Can someone provide some simple steps to Cleanly unmount at shutdown??
Is there a Way to "clean up", or make the current save file contiguous??
Not stopping me at all from using the thing, but it is a wonderment to me... Hopefully the answer is "don't sweat it" !!!
Thanks for looking
