Just out of curiosity, what happens if you run the "file" command on one of these files?

Should be

ffmpeg -i input.wav output.mp3

For example, see viewtopic.php?p=238#p238 and viewtopic.php?p=238#p238 Puppy 4.31 predates the creation of Woof.

Thanks for the info.
Note:The two link lead to the same thread!

Did you ? If so, I'm almost sure that's the problem, please try again from FossaPup and press "Enter" after

No, only keyboard. i will try updated script.

Please always say which Puppy version you are running.

May i ask why ?

Fail. error processing package keyboard configuration.
my keyboard is french azerty

Same error even with new partition ext4 more than 6gb no savefile working about 40 minutes

then problem could be not enough free space, needs at least 3gb (your savefile only 1gb as I understood).

Even after i increase savefile to 4gb i got the same error !

Answer: just put the ydrv*.sfs into the same folder as the other pup components (puppy*.sfs initrd.gz vmlinuz zdrv*.sfs etc.) and reboot.

There is not XFCE for FossaPup64 !

Try to find out what filesystem type your USB is, if it's other than a Linux filesystem (e.g. FAT) then it's NOT going to work as it should.

,
The USB is FAT32 but the save file ext4.

@mikeslr you hit the nail!
that's exactly the info i need

The save file is not really designed to go back and forth constantly changing it's size.

ok, thank you for the other useful information.
what i did is:
make a compressed backup of save-file before i increase the size
when want to go back just decompress the backup and voila !

Hi fred

i did try the script, it work for about 20 minutes then stop with error:

So did you try not using the adrv.sfs and installing MPV player?
If yes and it works.
Is that what you wanted or even smaller?

yes i did remove adrv_ then download latest mpv media player
and yes it work but it is still big
I'm sure there are many stuff i can remove... still testing

a bare-bones Puppy with nothing but MPV is one of those "strange ways"..!

exactly, you know, like those mp3 car player made with DOS

Hi wanderer,

first let me thank your for sharing with us the project
i like the idea : minimalist modular system
i want to play with it for learning, so let say i want build a tiny pup with only mpv media player
for start what iso should i use ? corepup dpup buster stretch ? something else ?

@bigpup i do that for learning, fun & curiosity
few years ago i tested ASTRUMI linux less than 50mb desktop with many app, also SLiTAZ and even TinyCore.

what i want is a puppy linux with only mpv media player.

Hi
i know how to increase savefile size if FossaPup64.
But sometime i remove many tested app, then how to decrease savefile size ?

Regards

@Feek Thanks i will study that topic.
@bigpup I know when i need other app I just boot from regular FossaPup64.

Hi
How to strip FossaPup64 ? make it smaller
i want to remove everything except mpv Media player
