Hi all, My testing of this text-mode-menu has not gone extremely well. But I have been using the time to consolidate OBI code further into more common functions which provide more error checking, and logging. I have used some of the code from ISOmaker (which is well tested and I have used countless times, and improved over time) to re-implement things that I had done in OBI in an earlier time when my understanding of the chroot and shell scripting was much less than it is now. So currently I am refining OBI further. Nio, if you want to send me a simple way you boot into a terminal logged in, and then launch x on the appropriate tty I would appreciate your added input here. I have done these things in a few ways, but do not have a completely adequate solution in place (so I have reverted to starting X by default) Once I have tweaked the last bits (I have been testing and tweaking the code a lot recently) to fully adapt things, and make sure everything is using the new functions properly I will upload the ISO. Sorry this has taken so long, but I've needed to do this for a while, to make OBI more stable. I have found various areas where there were bugs hidden by a lack of error checking. I am explicitly sending more variables to functions to avoid strange bleed over stuff...
