Thanks to all that responded. At this point, I wasn't planning to increase
the memory on the PC, so I would definitely appreciate it if a smaller
"footprint" for the Linux O/S could be bundled with PSKmail. I'm assuming a
number of
hams are likely in this same category, based on having older PCs (Or maybe I'm
just too cheap!!! :-) )

Hello,
I checked the archives and didn't see this adressed:
I have the latest (January) PSKMail live CD which starts to boot on my PC
(1+GHz Pentium + 128MB memory)
The front end of the boot process doesn't have any error messages that I saw.
However, I get a long delay when this line starts:
- mounting loop image on /initrd/loopfs -
Then the following error messages pop up:
============================
failed:invalid argument
commands were:
losetup /dev/loop0
initrd/cdrom/livecd.sqfs
mount -r -t squashfs /dev/loop0
initrd/loopfs
drop to limited shell
==========================
I'm not overly Linux savvy, so all help is appreciated.
I have successfully run the Live CD (Knoppix) from AI9NL (Harv's Hamshack) on
the computer.
tnx es 73
Bruce
