SystemRescueCd

use
rmmod pcspkr
or add
modprobe.blacklist=pcspkr

Check the grub config file.
may be it points to /isolinux.

@sdrubble yes, it is real quiet here. I try to help on topics i know about. Some questions are so special that they need costly testing to answer. Sysrcd is also a favor for me. Sometime i have to use old versions because actual versions don't work on legacy hardware or things are dropped. There are...

Type wizard and press enter where you typed startx.

wizard is a wrapper for startx

You can check the devices using the minishell.

we should enable binary files in copyfilefct_basic. Bad coded/binary files are copied this way. def copyfilefct_basic(src, dest): if os.path.isfile(src): dstfile=open(dest, 'wb') dstfile.write(open(src,'rb').read()) dstfile.close() os.chmod(dest, 755) return 0 else: return -1 I dont know if it makes...

Yes i know about the space problem, but wanted to keep the script changes as small as possible.

A question to native python users:
Popen stores the output streams. Should we close p after reading stream and returncode?

This in not the only problem.
I tried something and found that also opening the pidfile as textfile "wt" help.

The main problem is that "commands" is removed in python3
I tried to substitute it with "subprocess" but i have problems with it.
