Ah great thanks! Heh.. I was playing with it last night using the pupgrub iso the main flaw seems to be that the ramdisk doesn't resize so you basically must have a pupsave file. I wish youtube still worked with flash 7... seems they dropped support though. I am supprised how many sites render fine ...

So that pupgrub.iso has does have the Meanpup I was looking for... the bootloader is different though and that was one of the more obvious changes in Meanpup.

No it was definitly an ISO. Though possibly that is at least a partial source archive.

Lol if you boot up 2.15CE you'll find that there is a dark blue theme in there that whodoo forgot to remove that I made ;-) at least I think it made it into the release.

Package creations scripts....

I find it amazing that a standardized package generating script system still doesn't exist for puppylinux... similar to gentoo or archlinux. I mean people spend all this time building packages for one version of puppy and just hope it works on the rest. So what has prevented this from being made I m...

UEFI is not like a BIOS.... its like OpenFirmware (Apple) or OpenBootProm (Sun/Oracle ... aka SnOracle) UEFI can be good or it can be really bad (security wise)... depends on your vendor and if they are trustworthy or not... If your vendor allows you full acess to the UEFI great! if not... then well...

@disciple you might rather go the XEN route also you might want to look into the spice X compression protocol (quramranet) if you want to run puppy on a thin client form your windows PC etc.. its also rather impressive and is supposed to be in RHEL 6 i think. With XEN you boot Linux and boot Windows...
