I'm back again, no it didn't blow up but nothing happened ...

*About my previous commentary ... this time i got to read the whole line at the screen when restarted the system:

couldn't mount ext3 due to future incompatibilities

http://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?pid=9808#p9808

Ok,i found it:

<message xml:lang="uk">Щоб змонтувати файлову систему, слід пройти розпізна$
    <message xml:lang="zh_CN">挂载文件系统需要身份验证</message>
    <message xml:lang="zh_TW">要掛載檔案系統需要先核對身分</message>
    <defaults>
      <allow_any>auth_admin</allow_any>
      <allow_inactive>auth_admin</allow_inactive>
      <allow_active>auth_admin_keep</allow_active>
    </defaults>
  </action>

Are you asking to change 'allow' for 'auth_self'?

i realized today that when the system start and is displaying all these lines of information on the black screen ... there is one line that is saying something (it run to fast) like can't mount ext3 because incompatibility ... is it not this problem maybe due to a systemd?. MXLinux do not run init systemd but has systemd ...

Just in case to let you know ...

Thanks.

Hi,

I didn't know that ...

but any way, what i means by “to wait for developers” it is to wait for a sort of update, or wherever, in which this problem can be solved without much on the side of the user, because the whole thing is difficult, at least for me, and i don't want to brake the system AGAIN. He said "and it will probably be more complicated". And he need more information ... Some times to get information for me it is difficult since i don't know the commands in order to identify ... i was searching in Google to know the command for the 'display manager' and  'file manager' and found nothing understandable, clear or simple but a lot of confused statements.

Do you still wanting to help this newbie  person?.

-- please, tell me step by step what do i have to do.

Thanks!

Question:

and if from mxlinux i go to fstab and change what is over there:

# Pluggable devices are handled by uDev, they are not in fstab
/dev/sda3 / auto defaults,noatime 1 1

to this:

UUID=6e55911a-2620-4ab6-b2b5-1458602e6252       /       ext4    defaults,noatime        0       1
UUID=0b4a75ba-8b74-47b1-8aaa-2d971f92732f       swap    swap    defaults        0       0
LABEL=MXLinux    /mnt    auto defaults,noatime     0     0

whithout any result means it is not displayed at the gestor of files

keos@kaos:~$ df -h

keos@kaos:~$ 

Sorry if i  ...

This is what i did now:

GNU nano 2.7.4                            Fichero: /etc/fstab                                         

UUID=6e55911a-2620-4ab6-b2b5-1458602e6252       /       ext4    defaults,noatime        0       1
UUID=0b4a75ba-8b74-47b1-8aaa-2d971f92732f       swap    swap    defaults        0       0
/dev/sda3    /mnt    auto defaults,noatime     0     0

But now mxlinux do not even appear at the graphic ...

I”m not sure about what you said after run blkid:

root@kaos:/home/keos#  blkid
/dev/sda1: UUID="6e55911a-2620-4ab6-b2b5-1458602e6252" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="000f1103-01"
/dev/sda2: UUID="0b4a75ba-8b74-47b1-8aaa-2d971f92732f" TYPE="swap" PARTUUID="000f1103-02"
/dev/sda3: LABEL="MXLinux" UUID="66f3f330-78b2-4767-bc3e-8a9e7750e476" TYPE="ext4" PARTUUID="000f1103-03"
root@kaos:/home/keos# 

Do you means that i have to go into mxlinux and change what i have over there:

GNU nano 2.7.4                          Fichero: /etc/fstab                                       

# Pluggable devices are handled by uDev, they are not in fstab
/dev/sda3 / auto defaults,noatime 1 1

for something like this:

UUID="66f3f330-78b2-4767-bc3e-8a9e7750e476    /       ext4    defaults,noatime        0       1

It is working now!. i don't know what i did wrong before maybe because i did't log out as you said, but because i restarted the system?.

No, the same result as the in the capture of my first post : Not authorized to perform operation. -- i did it as root.

Well, you said that i should do "something similar" ... this is a bit complicated for me, i don't understand what you means, it is probably my English ... but thanks anyway for your answer.

Hi fsmithred,

The problem is that there is not TAB in my keyboard. Today i spend hrs trying again to install the system, every time the windows appear the whole information was not completed at the bottom of the windows, then, after many times trying different ... for intuition i was moved to press the key ESC and ... BINGO!

-- The system is already installed again, this time i didn't do this in Italian but in English, when locales appears, i just changed it from en to spanish and now the system is in spanish. No more grub problems, everything is fine.

Only one last question. I'm going to install MXLinux later but want the Devuan Grub, after this second installation, mxlinux will take the grub. If i change again to Devuan Grub ... is it there any risk in loosing everything like it happened before?.

Thanks!
