Also, AFAIK. both those apps are multi-platform. Thanks. I can't get hold of multiboot ...

Re: A bit confused.

Re: A bit confused.
I put the usb in and press esc on the machine to get to boot options. That probably just brings up a boot device menu. Some other key should bring up the settings program for the computers bios. (Basic Input outpt system). F2, delete, F9, F11, etc... Computer should tell you or it should say in ...

Re: A bit confused.
OK, thanks. I have skimmed through the topic linked. But I don't understand the words. Can I just check the basic things first? In case I am getting something really basic wrong. I forget how to do things as I don't do it very often. When I download the image, I shouldn't extract it should i? I just ...

Re: A bit confused.
OK, thanks. So, it is or isn't usually as simple as flashing to a usb with balenaetcher? Are you saying that I may have just used the wrong version of Puppy? As in it might not be compatible with that hardware maybe? I kind of thought that i could use a 32 bit on a 64 bit machine. Perhaps that is ...
