Hi again, I made a new tarball, where I added the kernels and made it boot to the grub menu. This new system works well, when installed by ToriOS live (but not by 'my OBI'). It is uploaded to phillw.net, and can be downloaded and selected in ToriOS live. The link should be one line, http://phillw.net/isos/linux-tools/OBI/precise/tarballs/ToriOS_3-kernels_01_use-by-ToriOS-live.tar.xz $ ls -l ToriOS_3-kernels_01_use-by-ToriOS-live.tar.xz -rw-r--r-- 1 nio nio 430014032 mar 27 19:37 ToriOS_3-kernels_01_use-by-ToriOS-live.tar.xz $ md5sum ToriOS_3-kernels_01_use-by-ToriOS-live.tar.xz 81b841b0612f4298b3652437bfa85757 ToriOS_3-kernels_01_use-by-ToriOS-live.tar.xz I have also changed 'dltbl', so that it will not confuse end users. It should come with the next version of the ToriOS live system (the iso file). As it is now, an error output after a failed attempt to move the tarball should be interpreted like this: "Could not write to /tarballs, which is normal in a live session. 'Select tarball' can still find the tarball automatically."
