Finally got few minutes to get back to this ... Coffee isn't compensating for the short night's sleep like it used to ... Where would I look for the cfg file that I need to drag over, please? Would it be on the boot USB stick or ?? I see grub.cfg and isolinux.cfg in JL64_LIVE - are those the ones I ...

'Lighthouse Universal installer' is requiring a file specified as Just-Lighthouse.iso - which I don't have. The iso's I have are all JL64-603*.iso etc. Is there a workaround, please? Thanks. EDIT1: I had not noticed the "*" in the name which gave me a tip-off. I created a subfolder, copied...

I booted the latest version from DVD.

I used the first USB boot disk selection I saw via Menu - Setup

This is what it wrote to the USB stick (I presume that means "syslinux")?

I booted the newest version from DVD. Moved all of the existing old LH64-associated files to folders. Copied all of the new JL64 files (see above) in their place. Created a boot USB stick. Rebooted & the USB stick was ignored by this laptop. This is what is on the old USB stick - that has worked...

Is this what I need in the boot folder - or is some of it unnecessary?

It came out of the 150820-JL64-603.iso

I'm still unclear as to what to do to acquire the latest ISO plus Patch. I don't see any ISO dated for September 2015. Most recent appears to be "150820". Do I have a local buffer problem preventing me from seeing "1509xx"? Delta patch (81M) for iso (150920-JL64-603.iso___150918-...

That's the way I've always loaded Puppy - frugal - except on this machine. I was wondering if an odd UEFI might have made keeping it all on the USB stick necessary for any reason? It was a long time ago when someone created the lash-up that allowed me to boot Puppy on this laptop at all. Handling UE...

I have an HP Pavilion g7 running an old version of LH64. It boots from a little USB stick on which the files in the attached image are held. Is it possible to boot from a USB stick but store the operating files on the laptop? This thing has what was, at least at the time (quite a while back), one of...

This looks interesting - especially for newbies to Linux - and maybe others tired of fussing with GRUB, etc.

Other than the personal use only, are there other downsides?

OK, just had a chance to check that laptop - without a dozen interruptions (and with a cup of coffee on board) - and it seems I never did get past jl64-603g with several of the tweaks you posted in the past.

This fixed hulu for me: hal-0.5.14-x86_64-3.sfs I still have to figure out which update to apply as the precise JL64 version I have loaded is unclear to me. Also, do I really need to pay any attention to the warning about hiding the old savefile? For Seamonkey I wish there was an update script that ...
