How do I stop quicksetup from coming up?

[Lassar]

Got it so the firewall comes up.

In the remaster copied /init.d/rc.wall to /temp/ect/init.d/rc.wall.
Copied /ect/localtime to /temp/ect/localtime.

But how do I stop quicksetup from coming up?

[bigpup]

What specific version of Puppy are you remastering?

Is this only going to be used on one specific computer?

[Lassar]

It's on Bionicpup64.

For right now it's only for this computer, but maybe
later on use it on another computer.

[HerrBert]

To prevent quicksetup from running on every time you boot in live mode you can add a file /etc/personal_settings_popup_disabled to your remaster.

But this will not prevent welcome1stboot from running at boot.
If you also don't want welcome1stboot running on every startup you can instead add an empty file /var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag to your remaster¹ or preferably to an additional adrv or ydrv.
If this file is present at boot, quicksetup and welcome1stboot will not be started.

¹) IIRC adding/editing things in /var only works if you do a manual remaster.

[bigpup]

If you are going to use it on a different computer.
You will need to do settings for that computer.
So may need to keep it showing Quicksetup.

After you make setting and make a save.
On reboot Quicksetup should no longer pop up.

Does the remasterpup2 follow symbolic links in root.

Could you put a symbolic link to in root to
/var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag, and have that to work?

If not, remasterpup2 needs to be rewritten to include /var directory.

[HerrBert]

I don't understand your question at all...

What do you want to do? A symbolic link from /var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag to root will do nothing at all... Vice versa will do neither!

The script /usr/sbin/delayedrun looks for a real file named /var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag. So no, a link will not do the job.

remasterpup2 is known to be outdated for a long time. nic007 aka amethyst has written some scripts for creating alternative remasters and so on. Have a look at viewtopic.php?t=1694

Another hint:

If you only want to change your local time and enable your firewall you may consider not to do a remaster, but just add these changes from /initrd/pup_rw/WHATEVER to an additional adrv.

Feel free to ask if you don't know how to do it.

If remaster2 saves /root/.xinitrc
you could add this line to the file /root/.xinitrc

touch /var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag

for example you could change this:
/usr/sbin/delayedrun &
to this
touch /var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag
/usr/sbin/delayedrun &

then remaster.

or, if remaster2 saves /etc/rc.d/rc.local then
you could put touch /var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag
in the file /etc/rc.d/rc.local

But how do I stop quicksetup from coming up?

quicksetup only runs if you don't have a SaveFile/Folder.
The meaning of communication is the exchange of information between 2 or more people. You still have not responded to my question here, viewtopic.php?p=43511#p43511 about the difficulty you were having creating a SaveFile/Folder. If you haven't created one, we don't know what you are doing, or how you are doing it.

[mikeslr]

Lassar, if you use nicOS-Utilities-Suite as I suggested here, viewtopic.php?p=43511#p43511 you could then use its "Save2SFS" module to create the adrv.sfs Herrbert suggested above. Do that after you've made the edits he suggested in his other post on this thread. I think* they are correct. I'm reasonably sure* an adrv.sfs will 'capture' those settings. Or perhaps post a question on the nicOS-Utilities-Suite thread, viewtopic.php?p=12983#p12983

*I recall this question arose on the old Forum, but don't recall the answer, and didn't recall it when I used Save2SFS. I must have done something wrong. Although the First-Run GUI appears, all my customizations and settings had been captured; and in about 10 seconds the GUI disappears.

While bigpup is correct in that you will need First-run if you port your remaster to a different computer, it can still be able to be run from Menu>Setup>QuickSetup first run settings. I don't think the edits Herrbert suggest will prevent that. But that's a guess. Asking amethyst (known previously on the 'old forum' as nic007) is likely to result in a better informed reply.

Am not impressed with nicOS-Utility-Suite remaster.

After installing glibc 28, removed glibc 27 library.

In the remaster the glibc 27 files are back.

In addition, if you don't do the check, the remaster
classic doesn't include the windowmanger file.

Throwing me to the command line.

And would have to type xwin icewm.

Then it would come up, and get the internet.

So made sure it did the check, and put windowsmanager file in.

So now it boots right up into icewm. No command line.

The trouble is on booting up there is no internet.

Have to restart X server, and then get the internet.

Here is part of my .xinitrc file

Code: Select all

touch /var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag
dhcpcd &

So how do I get the internet straight up, upon booting up
into icewm?

[Lassar]

Figured out how to get the internet.

Here's the code in my .xinitrc file

Code: Select all

touch /var/local/delayedrun_firstboot_flag
dhcpcd &
sleep 7
pkill dhcpcd
dhcpcd &

i made an update in welcome1stboot script
if screen is below then 800x600 it will display full Screen
