Hi, yeah so, sound was my problem, I was just testing on a few different laptops here, 3 actually and I didn't realize one had the a jack plugged into an amp that was turned off. Still after a days worth of testing I haven't gotten the 32-bit to boot on anything at all and I was still unable to get the resume from suspend working on the laptop that I really need suspend working on, tried all manor of quirks switches and apps and boot parameters. I've seen this a few times previously and I think it is a kernel problem and I'm sure it only effects the 64 version. Yeah the CD version was handy for small keys, putting the system to ram and still having space leftover to muck about. It's really nice when a stable build comes along. I ran the 7.2 CD version live in ram on my bedside laptop for 600 and umpteen days, 15 I think,; without a restart just by clearing the zram swap space every once-in-a-while and sure yeah I expect things not to work since it's live and I had to config some stuff like touch-pad, adding pulse-audio/manager and vlc but at that, it was solid! I relegate that laptop to the spare room with 8.1 only being used while I was exercising in there or had to test something on a spare computer and it seemed fairly stable too. I sure hope there will be an 8.6.1 release coming soon. I also couldn't see why the overlay wasn't an opt-in (option) by typing 'overlay' if you need to use it instead of being an opt-out by having to type 'noimage' when you don't currently need it. Maybe it makes sense if you create the overlay that your going to be using it, but yeah I would still think only if you want too, maybe that is me. I'll check back soon
