I installed Fvwm3 and imagemagick (for iconified thumbnails) and all work well with the Fvwm-kise configs (scripts), besides a few minor problems that can be fixed. There is no permission to edit xenodm config in #FuguIta directory. Made one new symlink from /usr/X11R6/bin/fvwm to /usr/local/bin/fvwm3. Is there a better option to do? Same with any added WM.
The usbfadm tool is great. The expand/newfs option allowing to use and storage of full USB capacity. I added many new packages (pkg_add). Is there an option to install everything on the HDD?

I was searching for a distro with Fvwm as default and found #FuguIta . Fvwm Keep-It-Simple & elegant (Kise) is a simple and elegant base, and feature-rich to use, modify or add your own. The default Fvwm config file is the base. Currently, there are 23 scripts of functions, styles, menus, decor, and modules. Works well also on Fvwm2.

All the files of the latest release of #FuguIta were placed directly under the document root, but now we have created subdirectories (LiveDVD, LiveUSB and LiveSD) for each supported media and placed them there.
Please be careful when downloading.

Would it be possible to have an ISO image for the arm64 architecture?
Either #FuguIta version 7.3 or 7.4, whichever is more practical to build now.
PS: the wheels are in motion to build daily snapshots for OpenBSD arm64 install CD-ROM images, at ftp.openbsd.org/pub/OpenBSD/snapshots/arm64/

Test version of FuguIta-7.4-{i386,amd64} has been uploaded to the mirror. I'm looking forward to hearing from you!
What I would like to know are
- How it works on newer hardware (device detection, X Window, suspend/resume, etc.)
- Comments and suggestions for improvement using the #FuguIta's original tools
- etc.
Published files are for LiveUSB. If you wish to run LiveDVD, please remaster ISO image from LiveUSB.
FuguIta-7.4-arm64 is now under working. Please wait.
Thank you in advance.

When starting #FuguIta, the downloaded firmware may not take effect despite running fw_update. In this case, you may find messages similar to the following in /var/run/dmesg.boot:radeondrm0: RS400 radeon_cp: Failed to load firmware "radeon/R300_cp.bin" [drm] *ERROR* Failed to load firmware! drm:pid0:rs400_startup *ERROR* failed initializing CP (-2). drm:pid0:rs400_init *ERROR* Disabling GPU accelerationThis example is for the ATI Radeon XPRESS 200M, but can also be seen with other video chips and WiFi devices. This is because FuguIta's root file system is the kernel's built-in rd(4), "ramdisk root."
In FuguIta, when the kernel starts, rd is mounted to /, and after initialization, /etc is renamed to /boottmp, and then /etc is built again on MFS. Therefore, the type of firmware that is loaded at kernel startup attempts to be loaded from /etc/firmware on the ramdisk root, but since the firmware does not exist there, an error occurs.
To resolve this, you need to write the required firmware to /etc/firmware on the ramdisk root. Here are the steps to do so:
First, download and extract the firmware.
# ftp http://firmware.openbsd.org/firmware/7.3/radeondrm-firmware-20230310.tgz Trying 2a04:4e42:36::820... Requesting http://firmware.openbsd.org/firmware/7.3/radeondrm-firmware-20230310.tgz 100% |**************************************************| 3371 KB 00:02 ETA 3452257 bytes received in 2.22 seconds (1.47 MB/s) # tar xzpf radeondrm-firmware-20230310.tgzNext, extract the ramdisk root image from the kernel and mount the file system.
# zcat /sysmedia/bsd-fi.mp > bsd-fi.mp # rdsetroot -x bsd-fi.mp rdroot.img # vnconfig vnd0 rdroot.img # mount /dev/vnd0a /mntWrite the downloaded firmware to ramdisk root.
# mkdir -p /mnt/etc/firmware/radeon # cp firmware/radeon/R300_cp.bin /mnt/etc/firmware/radeon # umount /mnt # vnconfig -u vnd0 # rdsetroot bsd-fi.mp rdroot.img # mount -uw /sysmedia # gzip -c9 bsd-fi.mp > /sysmedia/bsd-fi.mp # mount -ur /sysmediaCurrently, the capacity of the ramdisk root is about 1.5 MB, but about 3/4 of it is used. Please note that the size of the firmware that can be written is just under 500 kilobytes.

#FuguIta Hi, is there a way to change the language of Fuguita? It's defaulting to Japanese and I don't know how to change it.
Bob (2023-09-05 (Tue) 23:31:23)
#FuguIta. Hi, this looks interesting. When would someone use FuguIta instead of a plain OpenBSD install? What was the motivation behind the project? I could not find an "about" page.

First of all: fuguita is wonderful. Keep up the good work!
I wanted to build a custom version with more tools pre-installed.
It is possible to enlarge the ffsimg over 1GB (fuguita-7.3-amd64.ffsimg)?
I enlarged it to 3GB via disklabel + growfs but the remastered image no longer work.
Is there a procedure or 1GB is the maximum size?
#FuguIta
To enlarge fuguita-7.3-amd64.ffsimg, enlarge fuguita-7.3-amd64-ffsimg and media.img that contains it in the process of building FuguIta as described in the FuguIta Guide. The following is the procedure.
First, follow the FuguIta Guide to set up the build tool.
After settng up the build tool, delete or rename lib/mode0symlinks.cpio.gz.amd64.
# mv lib/mode0symlinks.cpio.gz.amd64 lib/mode0symlinks.cpio.gz.amd64.bak
Run up to make stage.
Once the staging directory is created, make your desired customizations in the tree.
# chroot staging /bin/ksh # (YOUR COSTOMIZATIONS HERE) # exit
Once your customization is complete, measure the size of the staging directory and the number of files it contains.
# du -sk staging | awk '{print $1/1024}' # size of staging directory in MB # find staging -print | wc -l # the number of files which staging directory holds
Based on this size and number of files, use setup_fsimg.sh to create media.img.
# make open-rdroot # cp rdroot/boottmp/setup_fsimg.sh . # make close-all # ./setup_fsimg.sh media.img $((xxxxx+40)) 10 # xxxxx is the size of staging directory in MB.
Create fuguita-7.3-amd64.ffsimg in media.img.
# make open-media # cd media # ../setup_fsimg.sh fuguita-7.3-amd64.ffsimg $((xxxxx+10)) yyyyy # yyyyy is the number of files which staging directory holds. # cd .. # make close-all
Edit staging/etc/fuguita/global.conf as follows
fuguita_sys_mb=1028 # size of media.img <-- Rewrite this value to current size of media.img newdrive_defswap=16M # default swap size # at usbfadm newdrive memfstype=mfs # 'mfs' or 'tmpfs' mfs_max_mb=30720 # mfs hard limit - 30GB
Copy the contents of staging to ffsimg.
# make sync
Create an ISO image and gzip it.
# make iso && make gz
Run the resulting LiveDVD and usbfadm newdrive to create a LiveUSB.
That's it for the procedure.
In general, it is much easier to use FuguIta LiveUSB to save your customizations to a USB flash drive with usbfadm sync and load them in boot mode 3. See the following articles for an example of creating these.

Wow, no install process or anything. The image I "dd'd" of #FuguIta that I dd'd to a USB-SATA SSD (SSD on a USB-3 interface/cable) booted directly into an "LiveUSB-XFCE-gaytratri..." X11 session, with the usual OpenBSD puffer banner and Login/Password! How do I login to this? Your documentation does not cover this at all. It's supposed to be going into the Installation process...
Thank you! ----mark

In boot mode 0, su complains that /usr/libexec/auth/login_passwd is not found and exits with an error.
A fixed version has been uploaded to the test directory of the mirrors. Please update with fiupdate for i386/amd64 LiveUSB version of #FuguIta.
