what files/folders for TCB with persistence----- need setuid set?

[aus9]

ahh lets try a longer subject line

I have borked my hard drive install of TC sitting on /dev/sda2
This has a persistent home, tc and opt folders
trivia below

I have a heap of downloaded TCZs so would prefer to recover the situation that have to start again if possible

Being an idiot I may have gone into sda2 from the other distro and removed all bits setuid using eg

Code: [Select]

sudo chmod g-s /pathway/filename

but of course I am not thinking I need some set?

2) possible /opt is root:staff rwx rws r-x
but I am not sure about anything

I did look at the archectural diagram but thats not designed to detail setuids (if any needed)

thanks for reading

########## trivia

TC still boots
but no startx command

This may well be just a simple permission issue but I need to eliminate setuid first if possible as that is what I did

sorry about that

I have a heap of downloaded TCZs so would prefer to recover the situation that have to start again if possible

Here's a thought:
For recovery purposes recursively copy your entire tce dir to a vfat partition.
As vfat inherently lacks any capability of setting ownership and permission attributes, latter will just poof in the copy process.
This might possibly help distinguish issues, having to deal then only with /home and /opt, but leaving tce dir out of the equation.

well the hard drive install for tce won't go onto a usb format unless I use a usb stick

but I have an usb install booted as I type and here are a few ls -al results

any clues to setuid?

maybe I should try to match the setuids using this usb install, as I removed them from the internal hard drive?

will probably do that as nothing to lose

trivia the folder called TCZs are just backup build area not used by system

cheers

[aus9]

I may be anal, but some of the dots (,) have setuid set

[aus9]

ok modified a google command to find the group setuid, as my above folders don't have user

Code: [Select]

sudo find / -perm +g=s


obviously it will depend on what tczs you have loaded but it would be nice to know if some have the same matches in the home folder etc

The below results are for a working usb stick boot up and not the internal drive fail.

ok the question still remains
--what setuids need to be set

but being impatient I just copied the flash drive stuff onto the hard drive and modified my bootloader

so at this stage won't mark as solved
