So I already installed puppy into a dvd disc, but I want to install it to the hard drive.
I removed all previous partitions since i don’t care about them and created two new ones (ext4 and FAT32). I used frugalpup and finished the booting and everything seems fine.
The issue’s whenever I reboot the system, it can’t find anything (after removing the disc). Did i do something wrong in the process?
I tried to install Opera Web browser in Puppy Linux. It failed to install complaining missing files. Where can I download the missing files and how do I register them in the Puppy system. Having got them, where do I file them?
Hi, i wanted to put puppy linux on a USB so i can use it because i have a very weak laptop but i still wanna keep windows in case my father uses it, the thing is, in the website, it doesnt let me dowload shit, it simply gives me an error, the same with mirror when i click it.
(Also, the one i tried dowloading is Focalpup32.)
Can someone give me a paw?
Hi! Just arrived to puppy linux (thank you chatgpt!) and I am wondering if there is a centralized way to know what puplet is good for what use case. Maybe a table comparing feats? Has each puplet some description somewhere? You see what I mean? Thanks a lot!
In case it’s useful, I just thought it would be awesome to have a persistent sd card so I can use it at home and bring it with me when I travel so I don’t need a pc, I can just use any pc I find around wherever I am. In this case it’s not so much about having little resources as it is about having a fully modern OS to work (basic stuff: text, excel, images…).
Another use case is a quite old PC a friend just told me about and would be nice to give it a bit more life. In this case, it is very limited hardware, although I don’t know the exact specs yet.
Thanks!
Also have it able to be written to, otherwise what's the point.
Hey everyone, newbie here. I did a full install from a CD in a machine with 512mb ram. I experience very high CPU usage and I can't use the "Get Web Browser" function, it opens Light browser which says my browser needs to be updated -I know, that's what I'm trying to do!-.
I manually downloaded 32 bit versions of Palemoon, Firefox and SeaMonkey, they are all very slow AND keep saying my browser needs to update. I can browse some pages but definitely not sourceforge
Also under System>System Update I get a warning about the iso's installation and the same process goes on, opening the browser for Sourceforge not allowing me entrance because Browser needs to update. I also cannot watch videos on minitube, ytfxf, smtube.
I installed bw32 to try revive this piece of junk for my mother to browse the web and maybe watch a video, but it's not usable at all.
Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.
Hello everyone! So recently I am facing a peculiar problem, for me at least so the thing is whenever I download a .iso file for Linux installation, it downloads as a zip file and when I extract it, it shows multiple other files like certificate, boot, EFI etc. but I can't find any .iso file which is to be used for installing Linux.(Sorry for my poor English and please suggest any suggestions. Any and all kind of help will be appreciated)
so i installed puppy linux to a usb and after a few restart and shutdown it will display a black screen is there any way to fix that?
