Looks like your /etc/apt dir is missing. Can't remember (not at my pc) if I included the llpatchapt service for that build. Do a whereis or locate for it.

The whereis didn't find llpatchapt

[valtam]

I can't remember if I added that in the iso or after rc1. I can't be more specific until I get home, sorry.

llpatchapt is a new systemd service I wrote to ensure the integrity of apt. This will hopefully translate to fewer Install Updates errors being reported going forward.

Ok, the file is called 'patchapt' If it is not in /etc/llapt/patchapt I most likely included it for the final and not the rc.

If it is there, run:

Code:

sudo /etc/llapt/patchapt

else:
      17 more sleeps

exit 0

There is no llapt folder.

oh well.

what is the new "writable" partition on my usb drive? I dont like my veracrypt partitions to be logged!... Oh I found it hitting esc and typing "exit" to grub gives the "old" boot menu where I can hit tab and type in " toram" (yes space included). This will copy LL live entirely in RAM (what I almost always do and have done). This makes it almost instant to check the md5sums (booting) as the needed files are already copied to RAM and don't need to be read from boot media again. What about making it default to copy to ram when there is enough 4gb+ or 8gb+ of RAM. Seems to work fine.

The update notification, not my favorite but fortunately have more options than "always notify and force updates even if configured to not do so and don't care about what programs was open or unsaved data" When I realized that this is really the case with windows I stopped Using it. I no longer need windows or use it even if it is the only OS installed, because I have LL installed to usb drive to override that ((force)update) s##t.
