If a pup_save file is encrypted the PC does not stop and ask for a password when it boots. Rather it displays a PASSWORD prompt in blue followed by red text.

In a way I don't get this. We've already reconciled to using two removable media (1) a cd disc (2) a usb key for out booting and running purpose. Why not just insert the Puppy live cd? It will (should) look at the usb key and use the pup_save on the usb key. So what am I missing here? Nothing that ...
