Your Favourite Pups at the moment thread.

[darry19662018]

I'll Kick off with old and new....
Pfeco Beowulf Pup, Dpup Squeeze DLite (Originally by Stu90 - did a remaster - use this daily), fluppy 013, and BK's Raring 5.6.94.

Heavily customised Precise for work, general browsing on laptop. Tahr for videos on my desktop. I have newer Puppys but don't use them.

I think I have to say jrb's lightweight "spin" on Barry's original Quirky "April" 7.0.1, as a general-purpose 'daily driver'. For video-editing, etc., I've set-up a custom media save-directory for Bionicpup64 - which I call "MediaPup".

Plus a few others I play around with from time to time.....Sailor's Slacko 5.7.1, radky's Stretch & Buster Pups, josejp2424's DPup Buster 64.....etc., etc.

Easypup 2.3

I have a bunch of other pups and Easyos, but Easypup is the one I like for general purpose. It may7 have been a fun side project, but it works for me.

[foxpup]

My main goto workhorse now is
slacko64-6.9.9.10
a build from 01micko, built by Sailor Enceladus.
It's on all 4 machines in the house, even if I don't succeed in using that machine.

Going back in recent time:
easypup from Barry
dpup Stretch by radky
slacko-6.9.9.9 RC by norgo (build from 01micko)

If I wanted to move to my next working Pup,
I would probably go for Phil's Fossa or one of Jose's Busters.
I keep a favorite for between half a year and a couple of years.

All of the WoofCE PUPs generated this year are fabulous. I am extremely happy with what I see those developers doing to make PUP generation easy. Their efforts are incredible!

FATDOG is an outlier; not only does it boot on secure-boot disabled PCs, it boots equally on secure-boot enabled PCs.

ALL other 2020 WOOFCE ISOs will boot directly from ISO if using a GIT tool that @ETP presented called SuperGRUB2 that I found in the old forum.

Merely create a DVD or USB, boot your system with it and if you have saved your 2020 PUP ISOs in a common folder on your PC; say /boot-isos, they will be presented to you for boot. Never again will there be a need to 'explode" another Puppy/FATDOG ISO to DVD/USB media again. AND, you can save your sessions as you have in your past; namely all PUP functions work without ANY issues.

Use of keeping all ISOs in a common folder for boot selection has been tested with PeeBee's ISOs, 666Philb's ISOs, FATDOG, and other 2020 WoofCE PUP ISOs I have tested.

Keep up the good work!

Beowulfpup64 is amazing but so far I can't find a 32bit_compatibility_.sfs that makes the trick (among other woes)

However, my main system runs a solid DPupBuster64 8.0.0, the only 64bit pup that fits my needs and where all my stuff works.

Great work @josejp2424!

Radky's Debian Stretch Puppy.

I just like it's take on the default puppy setup.

[xenial]

Xenialpup 7.5 32bit..it simply works for me.

ScPup64-20.06 (current version) - another great creation from peebee.

[sc0ttman]

For the last 3 years or so, I was using radkys "Dpup Stretch 32-bit" (RC1, then RC2, then a later one... never even used the final version)

They are FANTASTIC pups..

I'm now using Fossa64, based on ubuntu focal .. It also is a fantastic puppy.

Both offer a standard JWM desktop, standard apps etc, but seem to have some extra nice touches - particularly radkys pups, very reliable, stable, nice to use, etc.

Currently switching between Tahrpup 6.0.5, Xenialpup 7.5 and Fatdog64 811 on my hard drive at the moment. I've got Fossapup64, Slacko 6.3.2 and Precise Puppy 5.7.1 rotating on what I call my "Puppy Test Rig" more commonly known as a USB flash drive.

[JASpup]

I like the why's.

Lucid - it's the only pup that boots my oldest pc, and it comes with a pretty sunset desktop background

Tahr - older is almost always more resource efficient; it's refined and probably the oldest pup on the modern side

X-Slacko - best user-friendly 32bit out of the box

XenialPupXFCE - it feels like a dragster crafted by a sophisticated whiz with taste

[01101001b]

Dpupbuster64 8.0.0 as my main system and Beowulfpup (32 and 64bit) as secondary. All of them amazing
