Hi, I've had more time to do the tests I mention that this was.
Virtual Machine and automatic partitioning.
to install asks if you have a directory of roms if you say yes, and do not have a partition dedicated to roms you fail.
If you install and you say you do not have a partition dedicated to roms installed fine but then fails to boot, is not Ga-home, it makes sense because no home partition is created automatically.
If you see fstab shows / = LABEL = Ga-home / sda2 ....
Remember that just automatically creates 3 partitions boot, root and swap, when you should create 4 partitions to take home, in the menu have not found anything that refers to using a partition as home, or in the installation asks you for a home partition, but a partition for roms.
Well I've seen an option where I do not remember saying something to save the data, may be the option to create home? if so should be more visible and the partition section and also be present in the hard disk installation.
Truly arcade machine partitions.
sda1 / root 10gb.
sda2 / roms 450GB
sda3 / swap 2GB
Installed and everything works fine.
In the clear version Anteriror home since formatted and was always backing up home, so I decided to remove it and follow those steps for now.
I think if you create a partition of about 10GB for root, no need to use the boot partition as this is small and I've always works well with grub.
Do not think that when you do the installation to the hard drive if you ask the network of sound, etc. should not ask for the configuration of the orientation and aspect of the video?
Could you explain, that option is really worth the Video Card KHz output?
Start the Frontend option you should put it in the main menu.
You need to change this option for the second wiimote led out in position 2.
ir_ptr.2
Plugin.led.Led2 = 1
I have seen the bug that causes cwiid wminput when running, that moves the character on one side of the screen is the option of mame joystick, the maps will be active all directions up down left right etc with its appropriate letter keyboard but also with the joi 0 1 2 3 etc, there is also an error when entering the mame menu you can not go up or use the menu left to right in because that button is annoying and you have to map it again, this me going on in my normal pc, but do not remember how to solve it, I look and I mention as it was, anyway, so that error does not occur when you play you have to enter the mapping of player 1 and 2 and map the directions above again left right and down, it will not move the character and you can only play.
It can be a mame error and you are using versions of tests, which version you used before launching the livecd 1,515 or 1.5 as it was at this particular version when the error occurred
Just like that I have the h9110 mame.ini for my monitor out of sync a few games I can sync with the potentiometer and others (so I could try are the vertical sync I can not ever) there are also games that are repeated throughout the game mini screen windows of sync, I have changed many mame options and did not work, only VGA, and why opengl for soft switching is used to solve.
If I put the option in mame.ini of VGA1:
Horizontal games are working but I have narrowed the option to change the section full video in mame to cropped and stretched so the entire screen.
The vertical games do not work, does nothing the option of 3:4 4:3 etc. .. in mame.ini are always flattened, the only thing I can do is stretch them, but they look like 16:9
And games like dragon ball z using various resolutions are always focused on very small screen but like a tv 9 "
An observation more direct links to your web livecd do not work always go to a web page not found error 404.
Thank
I just fixed the ir_ptr.2 file and also changed the joystick option back to .03 so those should be right now.
Is it VGA-1, I am pretty sure VGA1 won't work, unless you left out the - part, which is definitely important there. I'm not sure, I haven't seen the games have issues with the different aspect values, are you using the monitor_aspect option? I do need to have it able to setup the right monitor_connector in mame.ini or automatically in groovymame and guess it like switchres did. This is something I hopefully will do soon, and possibly part of the issue?
The home partition should be created, I'm not sure what is happening, here's what the partitions look like when I install...
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 14 112423+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 15 270 2056320 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda3 271 2311 16394332+ 83 Linux
/dev/sda4 2312 243197 1934916795 83 Linux
That is what it is trying to do, I'm not sure what is happening though there, is the drive big enough, or possibly something else odd going on?
I changed it so the Video option is asked for now too, before I just checked for xorg.conf and only did that, but now ask for the section instead.
I'm not sure about the roms drive setup, which has to be on a different physical disk drive, else it wouldn't be necessary anyways. The drive must be completely empty too, else it won't make all 4 partitions, could that be the possible problem? Basically the idea of the roms drive is that your main drive is not large enough, so it would be a separate drive, not the same as the main installation partitions above.
I will do more testing and try to figure out what is going on, there might be a bug when the right/wrong options are picked, but if you just first off go into Installation and only do that, then what happens? It in theory, since that's what I do mostly, should just work.
What does your fstab look like exactly, and output of `fdisk -l`?
The front end change is something that seems right for the System menu, and helps keep the menus from growing, I'm trying to keep the main menu as small as possible, hopefully the front end option isn't really necessary but for advanced cases.
The Video card Khz output option basically edits grub.conf and addes the video= lines for connector outputs, or removes them, can change it after an install that way. You of course can't change it on the LiveCD since it can't save that and even during an install it shouldn't be changed since if you booted up to install that should be the same way you first reboot into it.
