Re: Clone OS to SD Deb!! Boot from SD made EASY!!
 

although when i connected it to my cp for the first time i think with this sd card my computer wanted to format it so i will try just for fun to see what happens?

Don't see how it can hurt.

And don't use .docx.. when you save in Microsoft Word do a "Save As..." and select "File Type.." and use Plain Text .txt or Rich Text Format .rtf..

They are more universally compatible anyway.

good news, something new happened :) lol
i read through the log afterwards and it started the partition and it says it started the formatting process, the after a bunch of crazy stuff it says could not stat /dev/mmcblk0p2 --- no such file or directory

but it didn't corrupt this sd disk this time lol

reboot and run it again without doing anything else. Just reboot, application manager, install from file, run the .deb.

Re: Clone OS to SD Deb!! Boot from SD made EASY!!
 

i closed all the programs that i had open rebooted and went to application manager to install again. it asked if i want to install it and said it had 0 KB.
so far just taking a long time installing nothing

man that was like the longest issue ever, lol.
i was able to reboot from mmc2 with no issues, i did notice the memory changed in xterm i will post it just incase it means something. but it works, your a genius, that was rather fun though, i like the challenge. thank you very much for this ordeal. what was it that made this so difficult, i'm throwing away the other 2gb card just incase thiers something wrong with it.
