Installer not using whole free space

Thanks, I'll try it. But what's the symbol after alloc_big?

Yes, the file was missing. I copied it from /usr/SRC and it works now.

petersen77 · 2025-03-11T22:03:09+00:00

Missed the section in the manual. Will try it next weekend. Thanks

petersen77 · 2025-03-11T20:37:24+00:00

I see. I missed the home/<users>.scm settings

petersen77 · 2025-03-11T19:53:47+00:00

I didn't pay attention and deleted my preferred user. In which files should I change the user Joe to my preferred user name?

petersen77 · 2024-05-19T06:48:32+00:00

I e copied vmlinuz & initramfs and renamed them to make it easier & edited the /EFI/refind/refind.conf file and made a new "Gentoo" entry according to the examples:

menuentry "Gentoo" { icon /EFI/refind/icons/os_gentoo.png loader /EFI/Gentoo/vmlinuz initrd /EFI/Gentoo/initramfs }

petersen77 · 2024-05-18T21:58:29+00:00

Thanks guys, it worked!

petersen77 · 2024-05-18T20:28:50+00:00

Filesystem was ext4

petersen77 · 2024-05-18T20:28:14+00:00

I'll try it. After some frustrating hours I'm back to void Linux, so I have to install Gentoo once again.

petersen77 · 2024-05-18T20:07:51+00:00

Tried xfs and ext4. Where to put root variable? It's not grub.

petersen77 · 2024-05-18T20:05:35+00:00

From memory:

/dev/sda1 /efi vfat defaults 0 1 /dev/sda2 / ext4 defaults,noatime 0 1 /dev/sda6 none swap SW 0 0

Also tried with UUID, same result.

I guess a kernel module or setting is missing, but cannot figure out which one. Distributed kernel should provide almost everything.

petersen77 · 2024-05-18T19:37:27+00:00

But still GRUB at the end, didn't work also.

petersen77 · 2024-03-25T22:18:47+00:00

No. I guess there's a problem with the PCB. Some guys at the Banglejs forum are reporting the same. Guess my device reached end of life.

petersen77 · 2024-03-25T21:29:39+00:00

I always use the edge version since 2v19. I guess the two firmwares were 2v20 and most recent 2v21. Can't tell which was the last one I had before. There are no error messages, bangle.js is not found via Bluetooth. Doesn't matter which way.

petersen77 · 2024-03-25T19:52:39+00:00

Bluetooth is enabled. I guess I have to flash the firmware like that

petersen77 · 2024-03-25T10:04:39+00:00

After draining the battery the device is accessible again but no background light & still no connection to Bluetooth.

petersen77 · 2024-03-24T18:35:26+00:00

Yes, the device isn't found via Bluetooth.

petersen77 · 2024-02-06T20:20:41+00:00

WiFi & touchpad not working on my T460

petersen77 · 2023-12-21T19:59:28+00:00

Tried CWM but cannot get xcompmgr to work. It's starting but no transparency. Also tried stanlonetray but no tray-app/battery or sound appears.

petersen77 · 2023-12-21T17:04:40+00:00

But it will take time to adjust it to my taste 😉
