Re: Grub2config replaces Grub4Dos

All I added were these two statements:
pupsfs=1E74E51174E4EC89 psave=1E74E51174E4EC89

It did not work prior to this. I did not try without the psave command. Maybe this one is not necessary.

Re: Grub2config replaces Grub4Dos

Hi All,

I have a computer with only Windows on it and want to set Puppy up as the main OS with only Windows as the backup. So, the install has the normal 3 windows partitions that Windows generates when it installs. I am trying to use Grub2config but cannot get puppy to start after using it. It ...

Document Scanner can't find my wifi scanner (BookwormPup)

Im using BookwormpPup 64 and trying to use Document Scanner. The app can't find my wifi scanner. What file can I alter to tell it where to find my IP address? I know the IP address of my scanner I just need to be able to point the program to it.

[SOLVED] How to move Grub2 to a different partition AND update within Puppy.

I've installed Grub2 through Debian, as I'm not aware of any other way than installing a full distro. However, when I experiment with different Puppy Linux versions, I need to modify the grub.d folder and then boot into Debian to run update-grub. This process is quite inconvenient.

I'm wondering if ...

Re: Google-Chrome 'portable' 64-bit browser - (with updater!)

Thank you for your help. I can confirm that running Chrome as root with the --no-sandbox and --test-type flags does resolve the file upload issue. However, I see many warnings about the security risks involved in running the browser this way.
I'm not very familiar with the technical details, so I'm ...

Re: Google-Chrome 'portable' 64-bit browser - (with updater!)

I'm having trouble uploading files to websites using Chrome Portable in BookwormPup64 (maybe this is the same issue as described immediately above). When I click the "upload file" button, nothing happens. However, this works fine in the built-in Firefox. This issue seems to occur on multiple ...

Re: QuickPup64 22.01 BETA 20

You are right, there is a menu manager and that would be a great way to reduce the amount of items showing on the menus.
Thanks you SO much.
