Classic Opera Browser SFS (corrected my mistake)

Hello Terry, and everyone else who has been and is working with you on this excellent and seemingly perpetual browser. I picked it up early, back in the nineties, and have used it ever since. I didn't stop using it when it became free. Having said that, I am writing to comment on a couple of things,...

Tahr Pup is a different

Once again I'd like to express my admiration for the developers of Tahr Pup 6 ongoing, precise, vast, continuously growing, controlled, and changing - maybe too much of a good thing? There's a lot I don't know, but hear me out on my experience of yesterday. Tahr is a wonderful showpiece for effortle...

Good words for Phil and the others.

Good morning, Phil, I think the topic we were talking on has disappeared so this one will have to do. I do need to add an update to my remarks about Tahr. You recall I had a problem about the "trash" and wondered how to rebuild Tahr. Turns out I got a fresh new installation quick and easy....

A look at April 7 041 after several dys o exploration

Hello. I've been using Puppies nearly from the beginning, and am no stranger to the forum. I am not a developer but a heavy Puppy user. Quirky is different in many ways - and maybe not quite finished, but I couldn't resist trying it. In my first post I noted my difficult in making a bootable disc. I...

Re: Remastered Quirky iso is not bootable. Tried 3 times.

The choices/instructions for making it bootable are (to me)confusing. I tried gparted to set the boot flag. Seems this is doing it the hard way - and it do...
