gfxboot

[piper]

I hope I posted this in the correct section, if not, please move

It has been years since I burned a iso (my build, which is not very different to stock) to dvd.

I built from pyfll today and burnt it to dvd and upon boot it gives me an error.

Code Select Expand

Loading bootlogo ...
Error Setting up gfxboot

Then gives me an option of booting

Code Select Expand

Siduction_amd64
Boot_from_Hard_Disk

I had this problem before when building sidux, I can't for the life of me remember what I did to make the dvd boot.

This build works perfect when booting fromiso.

Any thoughts ?

I can post my "KDE desktop environment" if needed

thanks

You are not alone Mostly i need between 3-6 build if i change the pyfll settings for a releae. The question is: which sources for pyfll do you use? Do you have the needed packages in it?  Most errors are made in this section:

Code Select Expand


166 FLL_WALLPAPER        = "/usr/share/wallpapers/siduction-desperado-reloaded"
167 FLL_GFXBOOT_THEME    = "12.1.1-desperado-reloaded"

174 FLL_DISTRO_VERSION           = 12.1.1


These entries should match - if not, pyfll has no chance to get the needed datas for gfxboot in the buildchroot.

Thanks agaida, that was the problem

Code Select Expand


FLL_WALLPAPER        = "/usr/share/wallpapers/siduction-desperado"
FLL_GFXBOOT_THEME     ="12.1-desperado"
FLL_DISTRO_VERSION           = 12.1

My fault really as I use the same code for awhile, usually use as fromiso using toram so I don't notice the gfxboot error and me being too lazy to fix/upgrade it
