I like the looks of this!

I promptly downloaded.

Is it wayland?

Very cool. Very puppy-like!

One thing that kept happening on that first boot is the taskbar would disappear completely, and I had to logout to get it back. And when I did logout, it would simply restart X and not actually logout. It also seemed like I had to mount the drive I booted from as to see it in the file manager. But maybe I was mistaken. It saved the changes to the drive though without using save2flash, I am running without w_changes=ram2 in the boot stanza.

Very promising distro here:

Hi @geo_c
could you show me your partition in Gparted
I'm just wondering how the disk partitions are signed ( nvme ) I haven’t come across such markings, I wonder how to write it in the code to display the hard drive temperature

hdd-temp.sh

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh

hddtemp=`sudo hddtemp -n /dev/sd?`
echo /root/.config/tint2/tint2-executors/icons/drive-harddisk-root.svg
echo "$hddtemp°C"

@geo_c
I chose this distribution for myself, I posted it here just for anyone who might like it .Exactly "Manjaro" since Manjaro has its own package base

Yes, it does have that puppy feel, with open box being very lightweight and the tint2 task bar being somewhat like JWM.

could you change the value in /root/.config/tint2/tint2-executors/hdd-temp.sh on this and restart X .is the disk temperature displayed for you ?

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh

hddtemp=`sudo hddtemp -n /dev/nvme0n?`
echo /root/.config/tint2/tint2-executors/icons/drive-harddisk-root.svg
echo "$hddtemp°C"

I did that, and I saw the temperature in the tray briefly, but then it disappeared again. And I'm finding some odd behavior, which I think has to do with mounting.

I'm booting this off my internal nvme0n1p2, as pictured above in gparted, but it's not showing up in /mnt, instead it's showing up in /run/media/root, and that may have something to do with the odd behavior, namely the task bar shutting down and not able to restart without restarting X.

I'm wondering what the boot/mount scenario is.

The grub2 boot stanza is written exactly the same as my other KLs:

Code: Select all

menuentry "KLA-Manjaro-Openbox-CE-1" {
  insmod ext2
  search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set [my id]
  linux /KLA-Manjaro-Openbox-CE-1/vmlinuz w_bootfrom=UUID=[my id]=/KLA-Manjaro-Openbox-CE-1
  initrd /KLA-Manjaro-Openbox-CE-1/initrd.gz
}
menuentry "KLV-airedale-multi-RT-i00" {
  insmod ext2
  search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set [my id]
  linux /KLV-airedale-multi-RT/instance0/vmlinuz w_bootfrom=UUID=[my id]=/KLV-airedale-multi-RT/instance0
  initrd /KLV-airedale-multi-RT/instance0/initrd.gz
}  

I'm a little hesitant to test manipulating the mount points on my main internal hard drive, so I'll copy to an external drive and try from there.

I placed it for myself
delete w_init . for good reason it shouldn’t be there (you asked for it yourself) .I placed it for myself

try to hardcode the full name of the disk "partition" sudo hddtemp -n /dev/nvme0n1p1 in the terminal to start

Code: Select all

#!/bin/sh

hddtemp=`sudo hddtemp -n /dev/nvme0n1p1`
echo /root/.config/tint2/tint2-executors/icons/drive-harddisk-root.svg
echo "$hddtemp°C"

Oh, I just downloaded the iso and copied the whole thing. So if w_init is in the install directory does it automatically get used?

I'll work with this, and hopefully it will give me a better understanding of how the system loads from it's installation drive.

But I have a long list of OS tasks to work with, like finishing off KLV-KDE-Plasma, KLV-Hyprland, and KLV-Boxer.

I can't keep up with the KLs!

When I run them I like to install EVERYTHING and make them into daily drivers.

I have an archive on SSD external drive of OS's that don't get used much, but are fully loaded, like KLV-Bspwm, KLV-Awesome, KLA-Xfce, etc... They are too many to maintain. Kennel Linux breeds like rabbits.
