Update to 14.10 and try again
Oh, I missed the new build. Testing in the Live CD mode and it looks like, the issue is present there as well with the same results and look...
The fact that it needs read/write in order to use RFkill X would likely require that it'd be installed and not running in live mode. Can you try that and let us know please?
Actually, when trying to install I got the error "Installation failed! Either there's no more free space or something is wrong with the installer !". I formatted the system partition the previous build was using clean, it has 10 GB of space. Tried ext4 and fat32 fs options, always the same and I'm not writing the grub. The error appears when it starts the file copy process however later from another OS, the partition space looks almost unused, although it has something already written from the installation... The new build struggles to run anyway, when booted in Live CD mode, it had kinda funny resolution. I could see only something running-moving, distorted, but nothing controllable. I succeeded only with the VESA mode 1024x768x32 so far. Anyway, this is it.
the Legacy grub is having a problem, also the Make system R/W
option.
Also does your laptop has an Nvidia GPU inside ?

or I can try to bring toybox's rfkill to Bliss, I brought eject
before
Bringing it to toybox might be the be better option
I think it's already there, try toybox rfkill

I always make the R/W option. I reinstalled the old build and installation (same as Live CD) ran smoothly with no issues.

Yes, it's one of these Optimus specials, which I never understood especially when it comes to non Windows systems... It has Intel GPU + nVidia used only in some specific cases.... I'm not quite sure which one the 14.3 was using but it ran smoothly with good resolution, I do not care which card it uses since it looks good, I'm not planning to use this distro for youtubing etc...

Thank you, it's working.... however.... As I was toggling the buttons and let everything turned on, it probably become afraid and started working right after the installation of the old build. It's working now.

Skip that R/W option

set nouveau.modeset=0
to disable the card and use only the Intel one, then you might get into the UI

And will I be able to modify the system then as root? That may come handy sometimes...

I'll give it a kick later..., I'm not rushing for the new build since the old will probably work the way I want. A pity that I can't run the BlissOS in VirtualBox so far. I would test if it even basically runs before I re-install the functional existing setup...
Actually the enjoyment was a little bit premature. It worked right after the installation, then after setting a few apps up, Magisk requested that "environmental change reboot" and since then it's not working again. The wifi is listed in rfkill as Hard blocked... so probably Magisk may have been causing this issue...

You can just extract system.img from system.sfs with 7-zip instead (and delete .sfs).

Old 14.3 builds don't have a working software renderer, so it wont work in VirtualBox/ VMWare.
In new 14.10 or 15.8.x builds they got swiftshader working again.
Add nomodeset
or HWACCEL=0
to kernel cmdline in grub for VirtualBox.
ANGLE=1
if you want to try SwANGLE instead of swiftshader.

Yeah but... for every, even minor change such a long way around? This is not an option for me although it's doable. Previous versions were working. Looks like I won't have any choice than to get the new build working anyway...

That worked, thanks, however the window was not accepting any input, from mouse, it did not even show its cursor....
turn mouse integration off
Actually VirtualBox is a comfort level issue, so far, the main problem is Magisk/wifi, which I consider buried with the old release. Isn't there really a way how to workaround in installer to put the system R/W? In Vbox it really passes when selected read only, looks like there is something wrong with the installer...
Found this, maybe it will give me something promising... https://github.com/jaxparrow07/Androidx86-Installer-Linux
update The project looks promising, however I'm stuck on the "Have a truly Blissful experience screen"...
Hello, I've been struggling with this for a moment, maybe you may bring something new. I'm testing following BlissOS distro, however I can't get wifi working. I verified the drivers (iwlwifi) are loaded in the kernel, the hardware buttons are toggled on (wifi is running fine in other dual-booted systems). The problem seems to be RF_KILL, which blocks the wireless device and there's no way to enable it. Toggling on/off the SW button has no effect, the device is just searching for new networks forever, without finding anything. RF_KILL command is not working, manual rewrite of /sys/class/rfkillX/state to 1 (phy0 has usually 2 which is confusing, thought of a boolean value...) is not working either, and its value is still 2, despite the root's attempt to rewrite the file.
On one forum I found an info, that probably disabling acer_wmi module could help, because the module is setting the RF_KILL block due to some bug, but this manual is for ubuntu and BlissOS does not have any /etc/modprobe.d/modprobe.conf...
I would be grateful for any advice, after so much time. Thank you.
