Right you are! As I posted somewhere else (Hyperion Linux Only?) I redid the thumbdrive and read the instructions more carefully, ending up with a more or less usable 16.04, about as good as my February hard drive installation.
I'm way too old to spend time using the thumb drive version although I will keep it around for emergencies. I have to find a way to get a really good version installed on my hard drive. |

Gparted has a good copy and paste partition function . you can copy from the /dev/sdd2 partition to a partition on your harddrive. use the unmount option in Gparted on both partitions before the copy and paste.

| Since tlosm is talking about this special build for X5000 which will give a major performance boost for it (40%). Will that gain made by just switching compile flags or is there major changes in code. And most important, are those changes going upstream?

Now someone mentions it! Yes I know about RawDisk but no one else seems to know about it when all you read are Linux and Windows instructions. Evem Mac people are left out. |

Does it work from the GUI? I always seem to have trouble. Last edited by Hypex on 05-Sep-2016 at 09:30 AM.

| Hi All,
I uploaded a ubuntu MATE 16.04.1 Live DVD ISO for testing yesterday.
Download: ubuntu-mate-16.04.1-desktop-powerpc-x1000.iso
I am not sure if all graphics cards work with the fbdev driver. We need some test results from SI and NI users.
You can boot the ISO with the following commands:
Quote:
CFE> ramdisk -addr=0x24000000 -fs=iso atapi0.1:casper/powerpc64/initrd. |
Quote:
CFE> setenv bootargs "root=/dev/ramdisk file=/cdrom/preseed/ubuntu-mate.seed boot=casper quiet ro splash --" |
Quote:
CFE> boot -elf -noints -fs=iso atapi0.1:casper/powerpc64/vmlinux. |
I have written a thread about our Live DVD creating experiences: forum.hyperion-entertainment.biz
Please test it. I'd like to know if it boots.
Cheers,
