Forget the old tutorials guys and read the first post again. It's as simple as 123 to install Linuxcoin with persistence. No os swap no two partitions. Just format your drive as fat32 forget about partitions. Download a filesystem image from the link in the first post and extract it to your flash media. Reboot and select Linuxcoin persistent.

You don't need to edit syslinux and you dont need to get technical lol just use the image files unless you are comfortable with using Linux to format your partitions. I worked hard getting this right so you didn't have to mess about and get your hands dirty Cheesy

Hi drgr33n,

starting screen in 0.2b gives

user@linuxcoin:~$ screen
Directory '/var/run/screen' must have mode 777.

this is on a usb key after enabling persistence (and removing kexec and that annoying read x < /dev/console inside /etc/init.d/live-boot.sh) Smiley

best regards.

Dang Sad you can fix by changing the permissions on that file for now.

Code:
chmod 777 /var/run/screen

To the second issue ?? I may be being thick to lack of sleep but I didn't get what annoying thing ?
