Puppy Linux Discussion Forum

Hello guys.
Here is my system details
Intel Dual core cpu
4gb ram
1tb hdd

When I'm trying to boot bookworm 64 bit in frugal install then it's showing puppy dbup SFS not found where as fassodupp booting normally and fine I have also collected the log attached with this thread
Please help me to resolve this issue

Hello @rahulboora You allowed debugsave to create info about the failure.

Present that 'debugsave info' here asking members/developers to debug.

Please see the first attachment for error log into saved during whole process

@rockedge or @dimkr can you or anyone assist?

First thing to post would be contents of the /sdb4/BookwormPup64-10.0.6 directory and the contents of menu.lst.

Then tell us how you frugally installed Bookworm.

Here are the scrrenshots of my 1. menu.lst file, 2. C drive where both folders are located 3. contents of bookworn install folder.
all these taken from fassopub running as normal frugal install . i donot know why problem with bookworm

I see sda1,2,3,5, in your screenshots which would likely be your c; "drive" and other partitions on your main disk

are you trying to boot bookworm from the same drive or maybe some other media perhaps connected by usb, that would be seen as sdb4?

Boot files for bookworm are located in sda1 and I'm trying to boot it from the same bookworm folder as attached in 2nd screenshot of last Post.
Here f96 is folder of fassopub which works fine but don't know why bookworm not working.
I also tried making a bootable USB using frugal install utility of puppy by giving it iso of bookworm but result is same again. It shows same error

Was this install done by using the program Lick?

You installed on a computer with Windows OS on it?

The location is formatted ntfs and is Windows c drive?

If all of this is yes.

Was the ntfs partition first checked with the Windows program chkdsk?

After that run Windows defrag program, to check and fix any fragmentation of the partition?

This also applies to location the BookwormPup64 ISO was downloaded to.
If the location file system is fragmented.
This can cause the ISO to be fragmented.
This can cause errors getting a good download of the ISO, because it is located not in one continuous location.

So make sure location you download the ISO to is not fragmented file system.
Do a clean new download of the ISO.
Downloading from the Internet sometimes is not 100% good.
So a clean fresh download of the ISO could be the fix.

Delete the old install.
Do a fresh new one using this newly downloaded ISO.

The last time Windows OS was run.

Make sure to do a normal complete shutdown. Not hibernate!!!
Hibernate does not fully release control of drive.

For me, it worked if I added this to the menu.lst kernel line:
pupsfs=sda1:/BookwormPup64_10.0.6/puppy_dpupbw64_10.0.6.sfs

You can also try adding pdrv=sda1 to the menu.lst kernel line...worked for me with S15Pup32. Seems the newer Puppys require this??

do you still see the error as in the first screenshot?
sdb4 /bookwormpup64_10.0.6/puppydpupbw64-10.0.0.sfs not found?
specifically sdb4 rather than sda_

Do we have any members who know how to review the Debugsave he provided in the 1st Opening Post (OP) to see what it provides that's actually related to the problem???

Wouldn't this eliminate all the guesswork as something there would/should afford a direct solution?

Is WoofCE development available?

I am not one that can do this, but other developers I have worked with in the past have been helpful to me, when this is provided.

Just trying to be helpful with my post.

Hello guys
Thanks for your prompt help
Well nothing was working so I decided to clean install
I removed windows, made fresh usb with yumi
It booted then performed puppy install into hdd
It works fine now
