Re: Salix installation buggy when used with a USB disk adaptor

This worked, and I installed Slint in another disk (exterior disk with usb connection as above). When I tried to boot from the later disk, I only got the Grub terminal. I don't kn...

Re: Salix installation buggy when used with a USB disk adaptor
This will not solve the issue but maybe try this ISO, just to see if the USB disk adapter is recognized with another installer: http://slackware.uk/slint/x86_64/slint-15.0/iso/slint64-15.0-5.iso. Please, give me precise installation steps (I prefer from the terminal). I have already downloaded the ...

Re: Salix installation buggy when used with a USB disk adaptor
As I said, I tried this too, and many things like this.Connect the device before boot then boot on boot menu and from there you see usb ssd. Choose it and boot.

Re: Installation problem
I think I have found the cause of the problem: the installation works with a usual disk-on-key, but not with a ssd disk connected to USB via an adaptor. I've posted a thread in the bug section.

Salix installation buggy when used with a USB disk adaptor
Perhaps not really a bug, but hey, I have wasted one week trying to install Salix, without the smallest hint of what could be the problem in the doc or anywhere else. The main point: Salix live installation on a disk-on-key works well, but it won't work with a SSD disk (or a HDD disk) with an USB ad...

Re: Installation problem
Thank you for answering me. I succeeded to boot into Salix with the Salix live iso on a DVD, but that's the only thing I've succeeded so far after a week of struggling. I feel very frustrated and depressive because of the exhausting effort and the waste of time. It seems like the Salix team has not ...

I describe here some aspects of my attempts that I think are the most possible sources of failure. First, my Desktop co...
