I've been running the Samsung drivers with a USB-connected ML-2510 on Puppy for a very long time, quite successfully. A couple of days ago I found a Linksys WPSM54G wireless print server for $10 at the Goodwill, thought it would be nice to share the Samsung with the three Windows PCs in the house as...

Hey chicks, This is an interesting looking machine. Do you have a make and model on it or know if its available anywhere? Sully It was made for Maxspeed, who were bought out by Neoware, who were bought out by HP. Model 810, I think there was an 820 also. It's pretty obsolete. 1Ghz Via CPU, 256Mb RA...

Both my Puppy machines are thin clients (one a NetBook). Both boot from 4GB CompactFlash drives, no mechanical drives in either. Only thing that's ever corrupted on power loss is browser bookmarks.

This was one of the original "NetBooks", from about 2003. Targeted at corporate users, it lacks a hard drive, boots from an internally-mounted Compact Flash drive. I've been running Puppy 3.x on it for a few years, just updated to 4.3.1 - it found everything, including the CompactFlash slo...

I've been running Puppy 3.x on an old MaxSpeed MaxBook 810 for a long time. The CF slot on the left side never worked b4, works great now, giving another option for storage! I noticed at bootup that it was recognizing and initializing the optical output that I had never used. It shares the 3.5mm hea...

So, I followed the instructions at the top of this thread, and got the A2DP profile working from my Puppy laptop to my SoundDock clone via an Insignia bluetooth adapter found on ebay. Great wireless sound! Built a script and put it in Startup folder, works great. Now, would like to get it working wh...

So, I made the mistake last week of letting Firefox update to ver. 3.0 on my Puppy thin clients, which run on compact flash drives. Immediately noticed things were much slower, then noticed that the drive light was staying on all the time, indicating lots of disk activity. Not such a good thing on f...

Any idea how much access to the HD/SDD Puppy does.

If you do the Flash Drive install, it runs entirely in RAM, and minimizes disk I/O.

I've been running Puppy on CF drives for over two years, there's really no issue whatsoever...

This topic was recently discussed in another forum. You should get between 10 and 100 years' life running Puppy on a flash drive The flash drive will probably outlast your PC.

I just opened \baslin\fs.img using WinImage (great little tool), and extracted /etc/rc. Contents below, here are notes: 1. mount -o remount,rw /dev/loop0 - remember we had to start ro in BOOT.BAT to get things going. Here we ar remounting rw. 2.

Thanks chicks, So ill go to buy another one ($10.00) or do u have and idea on how to fix the card?? Hector You can "fix" the card using Puppy's GParted partition manager. Just set the entire drive to a single, FAT32 partition, and make sure the boot flag is set, then reinstall FreeDOS on ...

Hey chick how do you fix the partition whit Ranish PM, i mean what exactly did u do. Im triying whit a 1.00Gb CF Sandisk and i cant get BL3 to run. Hector Is FreeDOS booting? If so, you're almost there. I haven't messed with this in a while, and my MaxTerm is happily running FreeNAS, acting as my L...

Read the whole thread. The fourth post has links to download the DOS packet driver from NSC for this.

The power is supplied by the 44-conductor ribbon cable. No separate power cable required.

I just removed the two back-panel screws, and the entire panel+motherboard slid out from the back. Then just two cables to the front panel to disconnect to fully remove the assembly from the case.

Most removable flash media has an embedded microcontroller. This enables SD, CompactFlash, and USB thumb drives to be formatted using the familiar FAT file system that Microsoft developed for MS-DOS. NOR and NAND flash memory both have a finite number of erase-write cycles—anywhere between 10,000 a...
