antiX19-runit and .iso snapshot issue.?

[Member oops]

Hello all,

antiX19-runit and .iso snapshot issue ?

I have tried the runit version for antiX19 buster x64, and with runit, it is really fast and light so I have played with it into a VirtualBox VM.

… Yes runit is fast and light, I have tried the antix19-runit standard buster x64 version, added lightdm, xfce, and some other apps … into a virtualBox VM … and tried to create a new iso via a snapshot (from antixcc.sh) then I successfully generated the iso.
… but after, impossible to boot via this(these) snapshot (lightdm or slim or even a grub single mode I do not have the console) into VirtualBox,

So is this behavior is normal with the runit versions (or maybe a workaroud exists) ?

PS and for information: the iso snapshot process works great into the antiX standard version, or MX version too.

See here too into the MX forum:

Are you booting the snapshot.iso in VBox? If so, does Safe or Failsafe menu option boot to desktop?

Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.

antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

Yes, maybe it is the problem … I have not tried with an usb key or a CD.

If so, does Safe or Failsafe menu option boot to desktop?

Yes but I have a black screen after (like a text editor as a msdos screen) (even with a single grub boot option) I have not the terminal/console.

… Hello anticapitalista and every body,
Re: Have you tried too by yourself (or someone) ?

An initrd.gz issue ? like here ? or the iso-template ? (I tried the grub parameter init=/sbin/runit without success )
