Actually I have 3 Linux distros in this laptop! Debian, Fedora & Ubuntu…

In all 3 I had to download n install Fglrx drivers, as open source “mesa’ drivers (if i am not mistaken it is called) was overheating my laptop!

[bhatta]

Ok, Using ‘no splash & nomodeset’ I am able to get a live session using the weekly build livecd!

But the system is getting very hot!

How to install fglrx drivers in openmamba?

[bhatta]

I am downloading this for trial! openmamba-livecd-en-snapshot-20130812.x86_64.iso

[bhatta]

one last question! Do i get the livecd i586 or x86_64, my processor is amd 64 !

[bhatta]

what is the major difference between the livecd & livedvd? Will i get a DE in the livecd from where i can add individual apps later on ?

I want to give the livecd/dvd a try before i try booting up 2.0.11 & delete/edit /etc/sysconfig/machine !

Also, link please for the devel-livecd/dvd.Will downloading ‘weekly snapshot livecd ‘ give me the devel version?

Glad to be of any help in tinkering the project!

sorry for the late reply..I have been trying to get a console finally got it using the following kernel args:

1) 3.4mamba 64Gb- no splash & nomodeset (quiet splash doesn’t work, just like in fedora)

Attached image-1426 gives a screen while the system is booting, i uploaded that just in case it give any insight.

2) Also, 1024×768 ‘no splash & nomodeset’ gives a console and i’ve generated the openmamba-makereport

Both the 1) & 2) consoles gave the same results to openmamba-makereport which is attached in images 1424 & 1425.

Is there anything wrong with the iso burnt? i didn’t do a checksum, BTW !

Since the attachments are large I’m sending them to reports @ openmamba.org
