Re: GParted 0.30 and ... SystemRescue project dying ???
@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...

Re: No graphical environment in Hyper-V
Just boot to the default textmode or boot framebuffer at the boot menu.
Enter then wizard at the shell prompt.

Re: Cannot find device with /sysrcd.dat. and/or srcd.bs backstore
You can check the devices using the minishell.
Minishell have many tools like mount, dmesg and vi to investigate what is going on.
Many strange boot problems are depending USB3 chipsets or devices.

Re: Default Boot Options & Host Restart option
One problem is that we have two different boot systems. syslinux for Bios and a basic grub for UEFI. Speak you about grub or syslinux. I write for syslinux: It is possible to set the option "boot from first hard disk" as default after a timeout. So a "operator" can boot the sysrc...

Re: autorun doesn't comply with python3
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?

Re: autorun doesn't comply with python3
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.
