Thanks, @fehlix. Thanks, @FullScale4Me. And thanks, @atomick -- might be trying your approach next.

The good gnus -- right away, the machine started booting to the new USB SSD Got the new grub menu, it sees all the installations on the hard drive as well -- cool. MUCH BETTER THAN BEFORE, where the system wouldn't even get to the grub menu, it would just halt and catch fire. However....

The bad gnus:

Any idea what I might have done wrong? This is way above my pay grade and competence, obviously. :bawling:

Any other suggestions?

Again, thanks for sticking with me. Don Quixote signing off for now....

Boot from LiveUSB.
Mount the rootMX partition e.g with Thunar
post:

Code: Select all

cat /media/demo/*/etc/fstab 
and

Code: Select all

sudo cat  /media/demo/*/boot/grub/grub.cfg
and also

Code: Select all

lsblk -f -o +PARTUUID
and

Code: Select all

sudo efibootmgr -v
maybe that's enough.

Patience and observe to the steps. perform a couple times and you'll achieve confidence. "i-Ching" phrase.

Thanks, everyone!

Before I rush out and perform the requested diagnostic steps on the USB drives, I have a question. In @FullScale4Me's latest (excellent) iteration of step-by-step (also excellent) instructions from @fehlix, I am wondering about this step within section 2.0 Installing MX Linux:

Code: Select all

5. Disable OS-prober so the Grub menu will only list own entries (vs the PC's internal drives). Type in a terminal window:
'sudo chmod -x /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober' (without ' ')
Am I correct that at the point this is done, you're still in the MX Live USB environment, and not the target USB SSD environment? Wouldn't that have made a difference? If so, should there be an appropriate cd command prior to this?

update-grub will only run on a non-Live, i.e. on a "normal" installed system. And os-prober get's triggerd by update-grub, if not disabled.
One most robust way to disable os-prober would by to take away the execution bit, another one to uninstall os-prober.
You can disable os-prober from the booted LiveSystem by running the tool "Chroot Rescue Scan" from the menu,
or on CLI with:

Code: Select all

sudo chroot-rescue-scan
Select the found install you want to visit.
and issue at the "chroot>" prompt

Code: Select all

chmod -x /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober
perhaps follow by

Code: Select all

update-grub
Leave chroot with "exit"

"How bizarre, how bizarre...."

Okay, maybe this is bizarre, maybe not. I had done the MX Snapshot in the MX Live USB setting, where I noticed that it seems to say it's a personal snapshot -- there's no checkbox or anything to make any different "kind" of snapshot. I also noticed that the Help file that is displayed when you click the Help button seems to be out of sync with the actual app; in particular, the second screen in the Help file shows and discusses a button to "Edit Configuration File" but that button does not exist in the app itself. Dunno what needs to be done about that. Bug report?

Prior to the snapshot, I had edited the .fluxbox/startup command in the Live USB environment to see if it carried over from boot to boot of same. So I shutdown the computer and proceeded to boot up. The new targeted USB-connected portable SSD also was connected and powered on.

Now, instead of booting into the Live USB environment, I was presented with a grub menu with the new portable SSD's MX 23.4 (at that time), as well as the other bootable OSes on my laptop's SSD (MX 23.5 Xfce, Q4OS, and another MX 23.5 Fluxbox). Dang if the external drive's MX didn't come up!!! I'm updating/upgrading that right now, setting up the stuff to shut off the Nvidia GPU and do the xrandr before firing up Fluxbox itself, but still mystified by it all.

I'm sort of wondering what happens if I don't have the external SSD available when I next boot, or if the Live USB stick isn't also inserted. I'm going to have to check out those things, as well as what happens without either being available at boot (vanilla laptop internal SSD only).

Anyway, success! Not sure about how the external drive will do on another laptop, but I'll check that out, too. (Really not sure what it will do when the USB stick is disconnected, but will check it out also.)

Crazy! New QSI:

Maybe you are too much adjusting at the same time. Adjusting thr LiveUSb to make it work with you special setup and also the same time external SSD Installtion in a special way work.
I'd probably stick to sort one issue at the time, so at least someone can follow what you are doing...

It was accidental, kind sir.

I was trying to test out the multi-monitor ticket's GPU mods alone, not two things at one time.

I was expecting only the Live USB boot but had not disabled the external SSD.

Some maybe good things are discovered accidentally.

And I do need to do the separate test of having only the external SSD available, not the Live USB.

Re: How to install and run MX 23 on external SSD

#29 Post by Durhammer »

In the words of Alvin the Chipmunk, "all right, Dave!!!" :celebrate:

I do have to adjust the boot device order in BIOS to bring the SSD to the top prior to starting. Not yet sure of what happens if the system is shut down but the SSD is still plugged in. Might work, might not.

The kernel panic issue shown somewhere above has again occurred, but going through the BIOS setup and booting away has fixed it, at least once. Perhaps a timing thing?

So it would seem that I have a workable, bootable, external SSD with MX Linux 23.5 Fluxbox edition up and running. There are Fluxbox issues I'm seeing that I can open a new ticket for if I can't figure it out.

I'm going to test out the SSD on a different computer to see what happens, especially what happens when the Flutzbox startup script tries to set the display but there's no dual monitor. Should be interesting. I bet I need to use --auto in the xrandr command rather than the explicit geometry stuff.... :crossfingers:

More later, likely!

Thanks to everyone's help, especially @fehlix ! :yourock:
