From what I saw of it, it’s not so bad. Like I said, he’d never seen one before and it forced him to actually learn something – during the summer, no less! Poor kid. Hehehe.

Hehehe, that’s all about learning stuff

I’m out of luck here… I managed to install Portergos in my old P4, but i need the driver xf86-video-savage, and can’t compile it from AUR…

The iso boots with graphical interface, but after install the system can’t load login manager nor startx

That’s bad, i made the 32 bits iso for this machine and i can’t get it to work fine…

But i’m lernaing some stuff at least

confusion and frustration at the sight of a text installer

Wow, that reminds me i still haven’t made a video about how to installPortergos in my youtube channel. I’m sure that will help some people…

Yeah, the installer may seem a litle complicated at first, but is much simplified considering the original version. hehehe

Antergos may be for everyone, Portergos i admit it’s not…

@keegan

It’s a little tricky, specially considering we can only build using a virtual machine, at least is how i do it.

I recommend you to use Pacbang32 or Portergos32 bits in a VM. From there you can install archiso and port your own configs…

I won’t lie to you, it’s a lot of trials and errors… And takes time and effort.

Yes, i faced the same problem last week, trying to use exfat. I no longer have the post that explained that to me, but is something related with gparted not adding support due exfat is proprietary, and that only disks could work.

@a4orce84

Ok, i just saw that guests iso is installed tat /usr/lib/virtualbox/additions/VBoxGuestAdditions.iso so you can manually point it in your config http://prntscr.com/kjxchm

*no need to add by devices option…

Fingers crossed!

@manuel said in Ho to get exfat support for Parted in Antergos:

Also gparted refuses to format to exfat, but shows it anyway.

Only “discs” can format extfat gnome-disk-utility

@a4orce84 said in Virtualbox - How To Share USB Device:

Any thoughts? Thanks again everyone for your time and help!

Are you booting the normal kernel or LTS (please try the normal in case you’re not)

You could also try reloading vboxdrv, but since your machine is running normally i don’t think it will make any difference. Anyway sudo modprobe vboxdrv

I’ll try an Antergos install here too when i finished backing up my VMs to an external drive.

@grenouille

Well, Let’s see if Portergos gives him a new life

@manuel said in PORTERGOS (Portable Antergos) - Offline/Online installer UNOFFICIAL:

I’ll test it as soon as possible on my EeePC, but unfortunately that will be next week due to other engagements.

heheh
Thanks for testing, i’ll also install in real machine, maybe next week…
