Is Puppy's 'install' a frugal install?

Post by r96chase »

Hi. Does the "install" thing make it frugal so I don't have to use pupsaves on a constant basis?
I might try it, but I'd figure that I ask about it first, because I'm not sure to be very honest.

Re: Frugal install question...

A frugal install uses a save file/folder to store changes, anything you add, etc.......
A save is part of the normal operation of a frugal install.

Are you having a problem with saves?

Do you want to run a frugal install and never have it store anything you change?
So it always boots, as it does, the first time it was booted.

The things you do not tell us, are usually the clue to fixing the problem.
When I was a kid, I wanted to be older.
This is not what I expected :o

To be honest, this is probably a stupid question anyway, but I kinda want to boot with automatic persistence, kinda like how "vanilla" RaspPiOS does it and stuff. So, how do I do that with Raspup?
