::I’m confused.
Do you have 2 frugal installs on sda3?
How are you booting into these frugal installs? vis usb menu or already installed linux grub menu?
Philosophers have interpreted the world in many ways; the point is to change it.
antiX with runit - leaner and meaner.

::I don’t have a solution but I think you need to setup two different boot menu entries for two separate frugal installs. I seem to remember something about the frugal install naming the partition and then defaulting to that one partition.

::I have only one frugal install on sda3 that is antiX-19.1-sid_x64-core with mate desktop.Voidlinux is installed in sda1 and antiX-19.1 boots using grub-entry (voidlinux grub menu).

::When I try to frugal-install antiX-19.2-runit-sid_x64-core with ‘failsafe boot'(because runit-sid-core does not boot in normal mode) on sda3 it boots already frugal-installed 19.1 and changed graphics settings on 19.1 so the display looks streched.

::You need to rename the original frugal install folder to for example antiX-19.1-Frugal. You will also need to edit the grub menu.
Then try a frugal install of core-runit. Seems like the second frugal install put files in the first.- This reply was modified 2 years, 10 months ago by anticapitalista.

::Also, for next frugal install, instead of failsafe try removing the splash boot option and see if it will boot that way.

::When you do the frugal install you are asked if you want to change the name of the partition. Say no. Then after install you will have a grub entry file that you can refer to for editing your grub config. It will have the name and partition set up for you. Just copy and paste.

Then try a frugal install of core-runit. Seems like the second frugal install put files in the first.I will try runit-core later.All I want now is to get nouveau driver and 1360×768 resolution back in installed 19.1.

I tried that and tried safe video mode also.I never had this issue before. All antiX iso’s boot normal.I have tried all 19.2 base,core,sid,runit variations.This particular one (19.2-runit-sid_x64-core) fails to boot normally.

Thakyou @Seaken64.I have downloaded almost all the videos of D_O:). At one time before I have four instances of antiX frugal-intalls in the same sda3.Now I settled with this 19.1-sid-core-mate and removed all other frugals:)

::This is me speaking crazy things, so it may not work.
1. Check /etc/modprobe.d/ folder and files to make sure nouveau is not blacklisted in any file.
2. UnLoad nouveau driver
sudo modprobe -r nouveau
If it sais nothing, it will now be unloaded. If it was already unloaded, then it will inform you (nothing else).
3. Delete the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
4. Try reinstalling nouveau
sudo apt-get install --reinstall xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
5. Try reloading the module
sudo modprobe nouveau
6. Try to reconfigure xorg
sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorgHopefully something here helps.
