    On Usb install , on first screen boot (black color) it claims that it doesn’t find
    rootfs4.gz . Indeed, I just find a single rootfs.gz on my usb key .. :/ ?

    Tazinst runs fine on tazpanel if you click on the main menu entry “Install”. If one click in the sub entry “install > install”, it doesn’t work…

    It worked for me ONLY with the default settings, and using it by command line…

    Tried to install on a separated home partition, no way… (to fix it, there’s a typo on the function to configure the home partition, TGTUSER should be TGT_USER).

    Tried to install with a different user (claudinei), no way… I mean, it installed, but the permissions on home were set to “tux:users” and not “claudinei:users”.

    @erjo
    If user clicks Install in title bar and doesn’t use the drop down menu.
    User goes to Installer Start Page:
    http://tazpanel:82/installer.cgi?page=home
    Then click’s Install SliTaz button or Upgrade Slitaz button.
    tazinst writes /var/lib/tazinst.conf
    If Install or Upgrade from drop down menu is clicked user skips the Installer Start Page and goes directly to the Slitaz Installer page:
    http://tazpanel:82/installer.cgi?page=install
    or the Slitaz Ugrade page:
    http://tazpanel:82/installer.cgi?page=upgrade
    /var/lib/tazinst.conf is not written.

    The KISS solution is to remove the Installer drop down from here :

    what do various boot menus do?
    what is the difference between slitaz live, and slitaz base live?

    is persistent option supported?

    Hi.

    @mojo as usual you are clear with your bug report and provide a solution! Fantastic! Personnaly I dont like these dropdown menu but it may be useful for quicker access, so will remove the dropdown menu for install and leave others. That said you have access to repo if you want to do it ? Like that I can do something else…

    @dbojan SliTaz core provide a full featured desktop, SliTaz base is around 9Mb and will boot into a text mode system without X, it is ideal for servers or old computer since you can boot the base in Live mode but install the full desktop to HD. And yes for sure persistant changes are supported, please read the doc :-)
