however i forgot i'd removed the hard drive so only - Puppy 2.14R 1.01 - Puppy 2.12 are really usable with such low ram and no drive :lol: I would think even then trying to actually do anything on the system would require a swap file somewhere. Seems like in that scenario you should be running a tt...

ok im going back to somewhere between puppy 2 and puppy 4 series on the murga i think it was in the 4 series, someone developed a multi-bootable cd/dvd package that did a similar thing as ventoy. - you dumped your iso files in a folder - then burned it to cd / dvd rather than usb from memory it had...

Yes, don't know for sure, but it could be that the "sort of damage" caused by extracting on FAT32 will be duplicated if you copy to ext4. When you extract directly on ext4 that cannot happen. Because a portable using a launch script symlinks the profile folder from the portable location t...

In US northeast it's been spotty for me today, 20 30 second page loads, at the moment, seems okay, It's intermittent.

Always remember Windows is a Service in which you serve them your valuable data and they grant you permission to log on.

These work GREAT! Real gz file: todo_bashrc_files.tar.gz On KLV-airedale or similar bash setups place these 7 shell scripts in /etc/bash/bashrc.d Or they can all be pasted into one master .bashrc. todo.sh (as found in the original post, containing the todo and fin commands) todoadd.sh (adds text to ...

I added one of the above scripts as a bash function in bashrc I will do it with all 6 scripts posted above.

Did you have to install alsa-utilils? That's one of the things I always install. Lot's of alsa stuff even when using pipewire.

About theming: I see a lot in /usr/share/themes, but nothing is displayed in Settings > Appearance > Style, don't really understand, I guess these are "just" xfwm4 themes, not gtk :? :?: From the Void repo I can install e.g. Bluebird or Greybird theme and then it can be selected from Appe...

@geo_c noticed today new updates to the pipewire - wireplumber packages! Seems to have integrated nice and smoothly. Yes I've been updating every other day or so. Pipewire has updated several times since I built my current daily driver. I like Void for that reason. I can't think of an update that a...

Sorry about a mistake: I formatted the first 300mb as vfat - since puppy install only searched for vfat. The last 2.2gigs are ext4. Searching online shows at least one other person having problems installing on core duo. I set the first 300 for grub and grub.conf and copied the system on the second...

First, there are a lot of different puppies and their sizes are not uniform, but I can say that F96_CE4 (Fossapup64_9.6) will run on my Toshiba netbook using 2GB Ram, and One Celeron 1.6Ghz processor. Second it depends what you want to do. F96 runs really well on this underpowered netbook of mine, a...

So you're saying you formatted the internal hard drive with 300Mb ext4 partition, installed grub to it, and a puppy install. I'm not clear how the rest of drive is formatted. I don't know which puppy you are using, but first of all 300Mb is probably too small to install the puppy from and run it. Th...

@fredx181 the new update script works!

This is a pretty nice browser! Definitely fast.

Here's a weedog logo for KLV-airedale with transparent background. (not displaying but it's attached)

Works by setting up the Xfce desktop background with a solid color of your choice as illustrated below.

Better KLV-Airedale-sr12, it's latest "stable release" (sr), ("rc" is "release candidate") I just noticed there is another version of KLV-Airedale using a different kernel. KLV-Airedale-RT with full Real Time Kernel 6.6.0-rt15 https://www.forum.puppylinux.com/viewtopic...

I added the updated todo.sh to my bashrc, and wrote three more scripts to print, add text, and replace the text of the files in the /roo/todot/done directory. The added scripts I've included in the attached gzip are: todop : prompts for a filename in the /root/todo/do directory and prints the text c...

Looks like FirstRib is for pro Linux users only. I don't think so, not at all, but a matter of opinion I suppose. It was the impression I got from looking at the website: https://www.tinylinux.info/post/firstrib-a-full-installed-distro/ First Rib script is actually fairly easy to use, but knowledge...

@geo_c If someone is looking for a version of Puppy on Distrowatch, this is the one that comes up first. Yes I am aware of that. And I read the discussion that preceded the inclusion of it on distrowatch. It was published basically to be a fill-in-the-gap submission, to keep puppy on the distrowatc...

I tried S15, one of the more recent Slack based puppies after using various puppies for 15 years now, and honestly I was pretty shocked to realize that slackware has very little to offer in the compiled applications department. I soon realized that maybe the Slack philosophy is to compile your own p...

Don't know if Ventoy can handle the 'Kennels'. It can, but Clarity and wiak would be the people most in possession of the necessary procedures. But now that wiak has mentioned it, KLU-Jam may be the easiest to work with. I'm exploring it because I'm sort-of familiar with the apt package manager. Ap...

In pupmode 12, the changes are constantly updated and saved automatically. In this mode there is only /initrd/pup_rw for the saving. In pupmode 13 the changes are either made in specifically chosen time intervals or when the user chooses to do so. In this mode there are /initrd/pup_ro1 which is the...

I update, I see there are updates in the tray, I update Another approach for TerryH might be to use fredx181 's restore-sys script from a psuedo-full install. After updating the psuedo-full install, a backup upper_changes can be made which will be the full system, and then squashed to 07rootfs. Thi...

I had 50 updates listed, so I downloaded and ran the latest build script. All running well over the last day since the build. I just noticed that the update notifier currently has 6 updates, including an update to hyprland to version 0.39.1_5, so looks like I'll do a new build over the weekend. Tha...

Is it like fossapup? In some technical methods similar, but the system for KLV-Airedale is Void Linux , and Fossapup64 is based on Ubuntu Focal Fossa components. Some similar and shared utilities. The desktop in Fossapup64 is by default JWM and KLV-Airedale uses XFCE4 is another difference. For cla...

I did think doing folder comparison would be a way. But maybe I don't have the save folder understood correctly. Could you correct me for any wrong thinking I have? 1. you could make a backup save folder 2. then make changes Wouldn't you need to save for the reboot? Which could be automatic unless ...

Is there a way to determine what changes were made that occurred in Puppy Linux and saved to a save folder or file? Thanks Unless there's a log file I am unaware of, my thought is that you could make a backup save folder, then make changes, and reboot without loading a save and run a file compare o...
