KDE 5 version
Up to KDE 4 it was no problem to configure a complete distribution of Linux on
an PC, make an tar.gz of it and deploy this installation to other PC's.
This was working very comfortable and stable.
Now in KDE 5 this seems not possible any more!
In 3 cases after the unpacking i ended in an black empty screen with only the
mouse cursor that can be moved on it.
I have no idea why the rest is missing and how to debug this?
The last fatal try was to move an running installation on my PC from the
hard-disk to the SSD on the same PC.
Booting from SSD is working, but after the login there is only the blank black
screen.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot an Knoppix or another Linux
2. Pack / Backup the running installation in the mounted partition with tar
cvfz.
3. Unpack the tar.gz on another hardisk or PC
4. Make the needed adjustment of the fstab to the new UUID, and grub.cfg etc.
5. Boot and start the copied installation
OBSERVED RESULT
Vopied installation ends up with an blank black screen only the mouse working.
EXPECTED RESULT
Copy is working perfect without limits.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
