  How to run Linux Lite completely in a Ramdisk
Posted by: chke419 - 02-05-2016, 06:22 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (3)

I searched the forums for even similar topics without success. And before anyone asks, yes I do know what running an OS in ramdisk does as I did it with XP and loved it for a great many of years. All's I can say is there is absolutely no cleaning needed after each boot up.  ;D Another plus is I can try out a pile of softwares, scripts ect. linux offers with ease and never have to uninstall anything or worry about distroying the OS.

So anyway on with the topic at hand, does anyone know how to accomplish this with linux?

I do know I installed firadisk, imaged xp into a compressed raw .img file for faster load time and booted it with grub4dos. Since I am new to linux then I am unsure what programs or processes are needed to do this with Linux Lite.

Any help here would be tremendously appreciated!

  Dual boot with XP installation failure
Posted by: millara - 02-05-2016, 04:47 PM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (13)

I have tried to install LL 2.6 64 bit alongside Windows XP in a dual boot setup. I used a DVD boot disk for the installation. All went well until the end of the installation when I was asked to restart the PC. Before doing this I removed the DVD as I thought the PC would boot again from it. I think this was probably a mistake. The PC hung and neither the F4 or Enter recommended in the instructions had any effect.

I performed the installation again thinking that it would recognise that there was already a copy of LL on the PC. This was probably my second mistake as it did not give me any warning so I suspect that I now have two copies on the PC with more partitions. This time I left the DVD in during the restart and it was ejected automatically at the appropriate time.

The PC will not now start up. I have never seen the screen that offers LL or Windows at startup. The PC automatically tries to start XP but offers me the screen to start in safe mode, etc. Regardless of what I choose, it returns to the inititial startup and offers me the safe mode, etc screen again. It's now in a loop that I don't know how to break.

Can anyone help please? Thanks

  LL 2.8 freezes while LL 2.6 runs well
Posted by: nomko - 02-05-2016, 09:24 AM - Forum: Installing Linux Lite - Replies (5)

Okay,

So on my daughters laptop LL 2.6 is running just fine. I tried installing LL2.8 on my laptop and although the installation went okay, my system freezes after a while. the only way to get things back running is doing a hard reboot (turning off/on laptop). LL2.8 is therefore unusable  for me. But when installing LL2.6 on my laptop, everything runs like a charm!

Anyone here who might a clue why my laptop freezes with LL2.8 and not with LL2.6?

  My Customized Linux Lite 2.8

This is a couple of screenshot of the customization I made to LL 2.8.

The icon set used is available at the following link.

The following small image is a transparent .png graphic I made that I use as the background for the panel, it will work for panels up to 64 in size. For the menu I set the opacity to 25%.

The wallpaper is the last wallpaper I suggested in the thread at the following link.

  Linux Lite 2.8
Posted by: Glenn - 02-04-2016, 06:52 PM - Forum: Screenshots - Replies (2)

Hello everyone, hope I've posted this in the correct place.

Thought I'd share my daily driver, Linux Lite 2.8 installed upon my Lenovo Ideapad.

[Image: LVDS.th.png]
LVDS
[Image: VGA.th.png]
VGA
[Image: Whiskermenu.th.png]
Whisker Menu

Whisker theme and conkyrc are my own. I love the provided feather backgrounds and tried to catch the colors of the feather on VGA background and match them within conky.

GTK is Zukitwo-Dark-Reloaded

Icon set is Menda-Circle (The set's quite large & has a somewhat "material design" aspect to it).

As I've said, it's my daily driver. I like to work from my LVDS to VGA and have set up my panel, it's indicators and the menu accordingly. 

It's not mind blowing or overly dramatic but I come from using either Openbox or i3 and like my systems left light, functional and minimal. Can't say enough about Linux Lite, absolutely in love with this system... Many thanks once again @Jerry!  Smile
