Too much writing so it got it's own thread.

It is also the case that nothing what you raise as criticism has any value. Just very opiniated.
Turnstile does achive the notion of "user services" without comromising on security.

If you are the admin of your system, you don't need to use it, Use something else.

Ah, so you just repeated a phrase from the upstream README.

I read your post as if you knew about something particular.

Refering to source would best be https://git.devuan.org/devuan/turnstile as it then would include patches and packaging deployed for the Devuan (and proposed Debian) package.

Nothng to worry about.

TL;DR; The initial boot sequence includes a filesystem check of the root filesystem, and that results in a log file which at that time resides in RAM. Then the scripting for some reason gets confused when trying to store the log on disk. I'm guessing the script writer failed to consider the range of possible boot-up scenrios so ended up making the script lodging a spurious notice instead.

I have no idea what Rufus is or does. But I know that the ISO is made for being copied verbatim onto the disk media from block 0 and up. Perhaps you could find and try with using "DD for Windows" instead?

Please stop arguing about yourselves and now focus on the OP issue again.

Why the hell should you discuss gentoo here???
Don't they have a forum that is good enough or something???

Yes send me the link so I can learn.

@exponentialmatrix: I'm sorry for all those irrelevant posts on this thread.

You are quite welcome to setup your "Devuan User Repository" on git.devuan.org using the means provided. I know you would like the "user organisations" feature, and if that is a show stopper for you, then it's understandable that you can't use the Devuan's git store.

One avenue for inducing change to Devuan's setup could be to engage with other people than just me. For example, you could take part in the weekly (video) meetings, and in there try to push for the particular changes you want to see. Though it probably will take engagement effort and that you maintain your community oriented spirit.

... Plus perhaps that you reflect on your position regarding organisational shrouding on the git store so as to be able to explain it to us at least how your case is different (and especially not a way to avoid or reduce personal responsibility). We are all just people, with a range of different understandings and opinions, and your views will matter as well.

@exponentialmatrix: perhaps my suggestion doesn't fit your purpose.

Yes, Devuan's git store doesn't have "user organisations" enabled.

The git store is only intended for users keeping and sharing their "source code".

Though, obviously life is full of change. Perhaps you (or someone) will make a sufficiently compelling argument that organisational shrouding is a necessary or at least significantly useful feature for this purpose, and so make us re-open that discussion about its enabling.

But there is no formal vetting here, about the software a user keeps and shares; merely the ordinary care-taking spot reviews that rests heavily on community feedback as means of maintaning relevance and quality.

you need to add a parameter to qemu so that it attaches its "monitor" to either a socket that you can connect to, OR as multiplexed with the serial console.

For the first option, you add the qemu command line arguments -monitor unix:QEMU,server,nowait, and thereby get its monitor serving the socket QEMU in the working directory. You then connect to that via socat with a command like the following

socat -,escape=0x1c,rawer unix:QEMU

which sets up a raw termnal connection to that monitor; you break the connection with key ctrl-\ (control-backslash).

For the second option you instead modify (or add) serial line arguments to be -serial mon:stdio, and thereby get multiplexed monitor and serial console on the run terminal. In that case it starts in serial mode so you need to press ctrl-a c to switch to the qemu monitor.

Then, once you have the monitor, you will issue the commands like sendkey ctrl-alt-f2 etc so as to make the monitor send that key.
