Hi, that certainly leaves me a bit puzzled, as the mini-iso requires a wired connection for it to work !! I'll set up a new partition and try it again (I'm the author of instructions you're referring to). You are the first person to say that you are having a problem when using them. Regards,

When you see the First boot screen, press pace and you will get the normal text boot screen. You can now test the CD for defects. A slow burn and MD5 success will pretty much garuntee this but it's worth a test. The same screen can test the ram. On Mon, Aug 2, 2010 at 7:20 PM, Lane Lester

For locking the screen, is it acceptable to add options to lxsession to execute some commands prior to suspend/hibernation? So we can execute the locking command of either xscreensaver or gnome-screen-saver, or others according to the settings? Is this an acceptable option? On Mon, Aug 2, 2010
