safepup

The small-ish way of doing this is to get safepup (it has Flash pre-installed, see http://minipc.org/safepup ) then add Java to it (safepup will have to be installed to hard disk as Java is large).

ecopup?

Yes, ecopup could be it, although you have to check if it is really there: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=19401

Puppy is generally built to be small, and it would easily be big if JRE is included, so what you asked for,
java .. preinstalled
is generally rare.

Hi

For installing JRE, try following this topic link.

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=21505


It's pretty straightforward (even I got there eventually).

I have found this to work when nothing else worked. It is a script that downloads and installs jre. The version it installs is 1.5.06 (or version of similar numbers. It has worked in puppy versions 2.13, 2.14 and 2.17..thats all I have tried it on.

Look for this line
" Note: To install the JRE try this .pup "
under:
" How To Install Java In Puppy "

You first will download a small file which will eventually download a file that expands to 104MB. I downloaded the large java file to my flash drive to a directory I called java and I can run java from there.
The computer I have run it on had 192mb and now has 256mb memory 700mhz Celeron with a 1gb flash. My other laptop has over 700mb memory 1.5ghz Pentium M

unpacking

#11 Post by raffy »

i could not get it to fully unpack.
Unpacking files could involve /tmp which is in RAM, so if your RAM fills up, it will produce an error. Having swap partition will help in that case.
