How to frugal install Teen Puppy 2008 with XP?

I've been using Teen Puppy 2008 as a Live-CD. I like this "version" of Puppy very much and I'd like to install it to my HD as a frugal install. Some questions: 1) Can anyone point me to a set of instructions? 2) I have XP installed on the HD. Would XP be able to coexist with Teen Puppy 200...

When using the virtual desktops, I can switch back and forth with the mouse.
Is there a keyboard shortcut that allows me to switch back and forth as well?

Thanks!

Hey, thanks!

That's been bugging me all night. Now I can "single-click" as I'm used to.

TEENpup 2008 is ready

Great job with this distro!

I'm running it as a LiveCD version. I was even able to follow your instructions and download Opera and install it as an alternative browser.

I look forward to using TEENpup 2008 and getting my hands "dirty" with all the applications you've installed.

Thanks!

Lightest, least RAM-hogging browser that can run flash?

May version; dunno about flash, but probably, sets as default/new icon

Hey, this version worked great! It has flash, and now I can run my favorite browser for Puppy.

Thanks again.

Happily using Puppy 3.01

I'm happily using Puppy 3.01 (installed on my HD) for all my basic tasks. I've downloaded Puppy 4.0. What would be the primary advantages of 4.0 over 3.01?

Thanks,

How to confirm Firewall is active after Puppy starts?

Good day,

I have configured the firewall using the Linux-Firewall wizard. I believe this is something I only have to do once, but how can I confirm on successives bootups that the firewall is up and running?

Thanks!!
