Hello

It is now loading my usb after giving it some wait time, but this still hasn't fixed it somehow. Rerunning the commands previously it still cannot find Xvesa.tcz. Rerunning this:

--- Code: ---ls -l /etc/sysconfig/tcedir

--- End code ---
still gives this

--- Code: ---lrwxrwxrwx     1 root     root         8 Oct 5 03:43 /etc/sysconfig/tcedir -> /tmp/tcc/

--- End code ---

I checked all the mount folders (sda1,sda2,sdb,sdb1,sr0) and all of them appeared empty after I ran ls on them, same with /tmp/tce. I tried giving it 20 seconds of wait time and it didnt find anything either.

Also I apologize that this is taking so long :( a lot of the other forums solutions seemed so simple

Hi patildah
I just remembered you are trying to boot the ISO, so the extensions
are in a directory called cde. I think you also need to add a  cde  boot code:

--- Code: ---linux /boot/vmlinuz waitusb=5 cde
--- End code ---

That got me further, now im at:


--- Code: ---failed in waitforX

--- End code ---

I looked through some other forums and running

--- Code: ---cat ~/.xsession

--- End code ---
got me:


--- Code: ---
Xvesa -br -screen 1024x768x32 -shadow -Zbutton -mouse /dev/input/mice,5 -nolisten tcp -I >/dev/null Z>&1 &
export XPID=$!
waitforX || ! echo failed in waitforX || exit
"$DESKTOP" Z>/tmp/wm_errors &
export WM_PID=$!
[  -x $HOME/.setbackground ] && $HOME/.setbackground
[  -x $HOME/.mouse_config ] && $HOME/,mouse_config &
[ $(which "$ICONS".sh)  ]  && ${ICONS}.sh &
[  -d "/usr/local/etc/X.d"  ] && find "/usr/local/etc/X.d" -type f -o -type l | sort | while read F; do . "$F"; done
[  -d "$HOME/.X.d"  ] && find "$HOME/.X.D" -type f -o -type l | sort | while read F; do . "$F"; done

--- End code ---

If you enter  startx  does the desktop then appear?

Juanito:
If you enter the following instead of startx what do you get?


--- Code: ---Xvesa -br -screen 1024x768x32 -shadow -Zbutton -mouse /dev/input/mice,5 -nolisten tcp
--- End code ---
