QiZhi added a comment to T473: PureOs installation : Boost.Python error in job "bootloader"..

1/ Using Luks partion for "/" AND "/home" then the installation fails in the middle of it.

QiZhi added a comment to T461: Restarting OS by itself with "@@@@@" appearing.

Due to several other issues I simply decide to restore and re-install PureOs.
I'm still trying to make the partitioning as I would like but I'm facing here again some difficulties as a newbie with Linux...

james.rufer added a comment to T478: Attempted to launch Settings and was presented with and error "can not launch Settings. Failed to allocate memory.".

Correct. I'm unsure as well. I've encountered a similar "low memory" warning on a low end Windows machine (Atom, 2GB) and the warning there wasn't much better or different. This largely won't effect PureOS on Librem hardware aside from the phone which is going to max at 3-4GB. Unless we can develop some sort of active ram switching similar to iOS or Android. I will draw this to Nicole's attention.

mak added a comment to T460: Installer: mismatch between kernel in installer vs kernel in the archive.

@wellton To me it looks like you are installing PureOS on an UEFI payload. This has not been tested at all and is not really supported. Are you using an EFI Payload for Libreboot?
What you can try is to run the Live session, and install the system from there with the Live installer - that might work (but has not been tested by anybody yet).

Your remarks around upstream tarballs being ipso facto pristine is

also a little misleading in the general case, due to (at least)
Github's non- deterministic generatation of tarballs...

heather.ellsworth added a comment to T460: Installer: mismatch between kernel in installer vs kernel in the archive.

@wellton Yes, your issue appears to be due to using libreboot instead of using the image as is. I'm not sure what @mak 's plan for support of libreboot is going forward but for now to fix your issue, I'd recommend you use the https://downloads.puri.sm/live/gnome/2018-05-30/pureos-8.0-gnome-live_20180530-amd64.hybrid.iso as it is with no changes.

The Tilix Git history, of course, But also the Debian package has no explicit patch (if it had, I should have noticed that as co-maintainer of the package ^^)
When I thought about this at first my intent was to only show the message if a feature requiring the VTE change was activated, but not immediately on startup.
As initial workaround, I added a gsettings change to PureOS default settings, but that only works if Tilix was installed first, which it isn't (so the gsettings override didn't really work, and I did not want to introduce a divergence of Tilix for PureOS).
