[DNG] Where to find the latest Devuan that runs under Qemu?

2015-08-27 Thread Steve Litt
Hi all, I know this was asked and answered once before, but 1/2 hour of searching my archives couldn't find it. Where can I find and download the latest Devuan capable of being run on Qemu (I assume this means an ISO, unless someone knows another way to do it). Thanks, SteveT Steve Litt

There are no infinite loops in the backend, therefore it will do what it is requested and terminate. The backend is run every time the frontend needs the former's services. On every call, the backend terminates, otherwise we would need some form of messaging between applications, and probably,

I added another function to core_functions.c. It attempts to connect to eth0 but for some weird reason, probably a bug not from our part, it is failing. The function is: int connectWired(const char ethx) And the error is: (passed command to execl is ifup eth0) This command should be called as

[DNG] replacing kernel 3.16.0-4
