x86_64_RC1 full install CD not booting
by Sanjay Mysore
Hello
contents of the CD (.ISO image burned) are
1. Boot folder (grub)
2. system folder
3. bzimage_x86_64 (is this the one that should boot)
4. efi.img
5. initrd_x86_64 zip file
6. x86_64squash.fs
This CD does not boot. Kindly clarify if the contents listed above on this
Cd is correct or something is missing

Verifying hashes and signatures
by Cláudio Vieira
Hello all,
Having discovered Adélie Linux very recently I became keen on exploring it and joining the party!
I was not able to find anywhere instructions on how to verify the hashes and signatures of distribution files made available for download.
Verifying the SHA hashes is no problem at all.
Verifying the PGP signatures requires the public key used for signing. Which key is it (fingerprint)? Where to get it from?
I know how to do these verifications and will contribute to the documentation by writing a section on this topic.

Re: TLP
by Didier BOUSSARD
Hello
My version should be 1.2.2 because my file is in etc/default/tlp
You told me to execute apk fetch --stdout tlp | tar -xOf - etc/default/tlp > myfile
System respond :
sudo apk fetch --stdout tlp | tar -xOf - ~/.tlp > myfile
bash: myfile: Permission denied
sudo: apk: command not found
I try with apt :
sudo apt fetch --stdout tlp | tar -xOf - ~/.tlp > myfile
bash: myfile: Permission denied
E: Command line option --stdout is not understood in combination with the other options
I have overwrite the file and i have no files in the same location but with the suffix ".apk-new"

Is this on an Adélie system? It seems odd that uninstalling and
reinstalling it would not restore the default configuration if you have
deleted the file entirely. Usually it will place the default
configuration files in the same location but with the suffix ".apk-new"
if you have overridden things (but not if you deleted the file entirely
- it should just appear as the normal name).
There is also the problem of our current version spread of TLP - the
instructions depend on which version of TLP you have (`apk info -ev tlp`
will tell you - make sure your system is up-to-date though).
For tlp-1.2.2-r0, the configuration file is /etc/default/tlp. You can
get it from the package like this:
apk fetch --stdout tlp | tar -xOf - etc/default/tlp > myfile
For tlp-1.3.1-r0, it's /etc/tlp.conf:
apk fetch --stdout tlp | tar -xOf - etc/tlp.conf > myfile
In the future you may want to email the
adelie-users(a)lists.adelielinux.org mailing list instead of the package
maintainer directly, then everyone can help. :)
