Post by number77 »

Hello
I want to instal puppy on a Dell Venue 8 Pro 8 inch tablet with a touchscreen. Has anyone any experience of this and any reccommendation of the best puppy.
It has a intel bay trail t. 4 cores,1800mhz. Runs win10 at present.
I need a touch screen, is that possible.
Help appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks wizard, I havent bought one yet, just wondering what were the chances of getting a touch screen to work. I run BookworkPup64 10.0.6 on my dell latitude e6230. But not realy similar and no touch screen.

Don't know anything about tablets, the Dell 2350 is an All-in-one and the touch screen worked OOTB with BW64. Some of the members in this topic can probably give good guidance:

Is it likely that I will be able to try BW64 booting from a usb iso to test a few things? One thing I read is
You just need to have bootia32.efi in your boot partition. Does that make sense.

No experience with that one, will be interested in how it goes.

Thanks
