Welcome to the Community

Welcome to the Zymbit Community! We are so glad you’re here. We are here to answer all of your Bootware questions.

In order to best answer your questions, it’s important to think carefully about how you ask your question. If you want to read more about this in detail (and we hope you will!) you can find a more detailed answer here.

TL;DR:

  • Research first. Have you read the documentation yet? Have you searched for answers here or elsewhere?
  • A good subject: “I need help” doesn’t convey much information, and other users may just skip over it. So make sure you formulate your subject well. “Updating an overlay filesystem with Bootware” would be much more descriptive.
  • Include a clear description of the issue you’re facing or goal you’re trying to achieve. Include as much specific relevant information as you can:
    • If the problem is reproducible, what are the exact steps to do so?
    • If you’re getting an error message or debugging information, make sure you include it verbatim.
    • Have you made any recent changes?
    • What Linux distribution and version are you using?
    • Is the hardware you’re using a factor?
  • What have you tried so far?

All of this will make sure that your question is addressed as quickly as possible without a lot of back-and-forth asking basic questions.
