Re: Back to Salix
I'm another Debian based distro user thinking that I might return to Slack based distro(s) should systemd take on a stranglehold elsewhere, might even go full time BSD.

Re: LiveCD almost dead???
It would seem to be essential to have live/installable media these days, if you want people to try your distro. :)
I have been absent from the forum/distro for some time, as I found something more suitable for me by using AntiX, however, I like to keep my options open. ;)

Just a shot in the dark, but has anyone reading this thread managed to install to an Acer netbook?

Yes I'm doing all the steps. :)
Everything except partitioner gets a nice green tick. :(

Disk /dev/sda: 160GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

I'm going to try again by deleting all partitions, repartition, reformat, reset boot flag, & see if that makes a difference.
No, still will not give me a green tick, so can't install.

Retried installing from pendrive several times, but still no green tick after partitioning.
Attempt 1
Created & labelled partitions
sda1=swap=1gb
sda2=/=5000mb
sda3=/home=rest(140.74gb
(had a little bit of trouble setting the boot flag)
Still no green tick
