Renaming or removing the adrive wouldn't help anyway, there's nothing on it but user apps. The lina-lite adrive only has leafpad in it, Carolite uses the same kernel as lina_lite so it will probably have the same problem. If your going to run Carolina without the adrive, you should install Gconf an...

Tried again with lina-lite.005 last night but still couldn't get it to load as the boot always hangs at the same place. Renamed the adrive on Carolina 1.1 and that loaded fine. Have only installed Firefox so far and it does seem a bit faster than before but I guess with only a VIA Eden 800mhz proces...

Marv & rg66 thank you for your patient replies. Now found the adrive file on the pendrive and so will rename it and see if lina-lite then loads.

Keep you posted

Marv thanks for the reply. I'm a bit of a noob to linux and so the command line is still something of a mystery, but I will do a search on hiding the adrive to see if I can find a walk through.

Cheers

Quick update, just managed to find and install Get_iplayer with the GUI by 666philb. Downloaded a program (Later with Jools Holland) but unfortunately I don't think my hardware is up to it, as by the time the video had got to the end of song one, the audio was about half way through song 2. Ran the ...

It sounds like you're already way ahead of anything I've tried. Have you tried to access the NAS box yet? Not sure I'd go that far. My only computer experience is with 'Windoze' I've been OK with the bits in Puppy that come with a GUI but anything that involves the command line leaves me lost. I’ve...
