Strange message just before tinycore desktop
« on: January 20, 2012, 06:59:58 AM »
HI all,

Heres an odd message I see just before my tinycore desktop loads up.

Code: [Select]
ls: cannot access /mnt/sda1/tce/ondemand/*: No such file or directory
My /mnt/sda1/tce/ondemand/ dir is empty.
And I can't see anything in /opt/.filetool.lst or /opt/bootlocal.sh that might be accessing that folder

Any idea what might be causing the msg ?

PS as far as I can tell its not causing any problems.
Live long and prosper.

Hi remus
Check if there is an empty file called  /mnt/sda1/tce/ondemand.lst
If there is, try deleting it and see if the message goes away.

That should be onboot.lst.

Hi remus
Forget everything I just said.

@gerald_clark: I thought I remembered seeing that file on one of my machines, looks like I was
                        mistaken.

I have a file /mnt/sda1/tce/onboot.lst
And it contains
Code: [Select]
openssh.tcz
nano.tcz
samba3.tcz
shadow-utils.tcz
screen.tcz
mkisofs-tools.tcz
appbrowser-cli.tcz
boost-dev.tcz
compiletc.tcz
coreutils.tcz
dosfstools.tcz
ezremaster-legacy.tcz
make.tcz
submitqc4.tcz
wget.tcz
clamav.tcz
Which is the contents of my onboot applications.

I just thought of something that might be relevant.
I was using tinycore 4.1 and started using 3.8.4 because of a problem with samba http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php/topic,12345.msg66536.html#msg66536

So your saying that I should delete this /mnt/sda1/tce/onboot.lst ?
Live long and prosper.

Hi remus
NO, don't delete that, otherwise your extensions won't load when your computer starts up.

If there are no extensions in optional, there should be no entries in onboot.lst.
