Porteus

Hi fanthom, Good news.. I've prepared a couple of ISOs with the new vmlinuz which includes the MMC / SD & MS kernel drivers and the boot process is now finding the session persistence save file on the SD card MMC drive. For the record, I'm booting using the cheat code changes=/mnt/mmcblk0p1/save-v03...

Assisted by the tips and links provided above by Tonio , I've remastered Porteus-XFCE-v1.2-rc1-x86_64 to make an ISO including the 3.3.1 Linux kernel and updated vmlinuz mentioned here and the XFCE 4.9 modules linked in this thread .
