LegacyOS 4 and games
Hi, Legacy sounds like it might be exactly what I need for a friends older (2003) PC, but I need some guidance on which to go for. a) I think OS4 should work on the hardware (Pentium 4), so I suppose I should try that. However they play games a lot so I would like to give them the games that come wi...

Is there a Puppy for the 'Average person'?
Firstly, MANY THANKS to all contributing to this great project. I really like puppy and I want to give some friends and relatives CD's so they can continue to use their older PC's as they dont have the money to buy newer ones (and windows is dying). Even as an experienced linux (ubuntu) user, I find...

Problem Confirmed
Sorry I have no solution. I just wanted to say that I am getting similar behaviour with a frugal install to HD. (using V4.2.1).

Installing to hard drive does not give an error message
After spending a frustrating 4 hours trying to do a full install of teenpup to the hard drive I eventually tracked the problem down to the partition I created being too small. The real problem is that there is no error indication. Searching the forums, I couldn't find a minimum HD space required for...

Remastering CD bug/enhancement
This is both a potential problem and a feature request. As a newbie to puppy, I tried remastering the CD. Firstly I'll say that I'm not sure if remastering is essentially the same as creating the sfs files on a hard drive/USB stick (I'd already created the sfs files on a USB stick and wanted to comp...
