just extract the file and run the setup script from the command line just like the site says.
Taking Puppy Linux to the limit of perfection. meanwhile try "puppy pfix=duct_tape" kernel parem eater.

Hi CB88, I am using 3.01 frugal on a twin boot (with PClinuxOS) on two HDD's
I followed instructions on unzipping etc and ran program.
Whilst it does boot faster the following does not work
No internet (No Ethernet card detected, I have 2)
No menus either by mouse click and also menu bar at bottom has disappeared. Gxine does not run.
At that point I gave up.
Hope this data is useful.
Thanks for your work in trying to get this on Puppy
Cheers

ok translated that and sent to luciano I think the problem is that some of the hardware detection got left out and zdrv.sfs is not being loaded correctly when drivers or codecs are needed...

In Regular linux systens, ifup -a turn on the network and the direct load of the modules can do that without a hardware detection tool...
Please send the result of the command:
cat /etc/texasflood-modules
If you are using a hardware detection tool, please modify the line modules_in_first_stage='1' to modules_in_first_stage='0' in /etc/texasflood.conf !!! This can speed up your boot time...
send /var/log/texas-flood ...

Config file, hope this helps

#Many conditions placed in this file can have two values 1 or 0.
#1 means yes and 0 means no.
#We hope you now feel comfortable editing this configuration file.
# [Hardware detection]
#Need to pre-load modules:

#some systems need to load a module even before Texas Flood is

no menu, no wireless after TexasFlood installation
just wondering if there was a fix for those problems?

Ok just got an update. Luciano is on a slow internet connection so downloading puppy takes a while...
From what he has seen puppy does not boot like anything he has seen...
contrary to his former belief.
he said that he is finding how puppy boots quite interesting so perhaps there is hope yet!!
I am amazed that he even got puppy to boot in the first place after messing with the boot scripts so much
and finally there may be a command to remove texasflood already it may be texasflood-reboot but I am not sure that it is in the current version of texasflood
