Thanks Alexandre, The first part has just completed download, so the other 2 parts should be here in 6 or 7 hours. :-(
2 silly questions ... Q1. IIRC. Linux unzip has issues with split files, is it just as easy as cat PCLinuxOS_no_TDE_remaster_5sept2015.zip.0* > PCLinuxOS_no_TDE_remaster_5sept2015.zip to recover the file and then unzip it?
Q2. Is the resulting .iso a hybrid .iso that I can simply dd to a USB stick? The "cheapo" notebook/netbook that I use for testing does not have an optical drive.
Thanks, Glen
Hi all,
First I'd like to thank you for trying my remaster!
Ark does not work with multi-part zip files. There is quite a few archive managers who are capable of doing it on Linux, if I remember well, such as PeaZip, Xarchiver, File-roller. Try to search for archive managers in your favorite package manager, and you'll find quite a few who can do the job. Or most archive managers on Windows do the job.
To start PCLinuxOS livedvd from USB, I recommend using UnetBootin. But be aware that UnetBootin does not always work on first try. There is also the possibility to buy an external USB DVD drive. They are 15-20$ brand new on ebay. I bought one and it makes life much easier on drive-less laptops.
For others who might have trouble with FileFactory, you can try back later.
Thank you! -Alexandre
