Puppy 1.0.1: Pizzapup Edition complete

#1 Post by Pizzasgood »

It's FINALLY uploaded. Go to http://pizzasgood.allhyper.com/ and save the link to pizzapup as an iso (not txt). I tried everything from wav to png and txt was the only thing that worked. Sorry. That page will probably be deemed "in violation of the terms of service" in the next couple of days, so get it while it's hot. Maybe someone can host it somewhere else. I'd appreciate it. I don't have enough time to do it myself. (I have bags to pack, music to burn, cds to dig out, pizza to eat (literally)... Hmmm, that reminds me, I need to pack my cd player or those cds will be pretty useless....)

Description:
It is just mostly a normal v1.0.1 (so all those annoying kernal problems won't be included :)) but:
1. Comes preloaded with Firefox 1.0.4
2. Comes preloaded with IceWM
3. Comes with Timidity
4. Comes with GuestToo's wallpaper roxapp (and my hacks)
5. I removed Beaver (Lobsters around the world let out a sigh of relief...)
6. Put in JohnMurga's bootmenu
7. Added my new, less frightening splash screen
8. A couple icons have been modified
9. Includes my somewhat inefficient, but usable, version of a remaster script. (/root/my-applications/hackyremaster USE AT OWN RISK!)
10. Removed Mozilla
11. It's 67MB


Notes:
You should probably start with a fresh pup001 file. Otherwise it could get a bit mangled.
Repeat: Use hackyremaster at your own risk. Lobster, perform a complete system backup if you use this :) If used correctly it should work fine, but if you try to break it, bad stuff could happen.
You can use the sendto menu to set wallpapers.
If you don't like my icons, the originals are in there somewhere...
I did not remove the 0, a, and b boot options. It just doesn't display them. I don't know what acpi is/does, (or if it's even in 1.0.1) so be careful with those too.
Firefox comes with some useful bookmarks :)
To edit the boot message when you remaster, edit the boot.msg file and just change the text on the second line and below. The first line loads the image, if you want to remove it.

To transfer stuff from your old pup001 file:
boot with option 2
rename it pup999
reboot with option 1
mount the old file (mount /mnt/home/pup999 /mnt/pupxxx -t ext2 -o loop,rw)
copy what you need out of it.
unmount /mnt/pup999
delete pup999 (if you want)

I think that's it. Have fun! I'm outta here!

Er, there is one remaining bug with Pizzapup. It's not really a problem, but it could cause confusion. See, I made that boot splash for 1.0.2, but Pizzapp is 1.0.1. So, just ignore that 2. Pretend it's a 1. Sorry. :roll:

Looks like it's already been taken down. I got dumped out of my download, and now it says I don't have permission to access the server. Oh, well. . .

Lucky me. :lol: I got pizzapup before it was taken down. :(
Tried it briefly. Did I hear barking? 8) Looks good. Soooo:

http://www.freeveda.org/linux/puppy/pizzapup-1.0.1.md5

However, if downloads get too close to my monthly server quota,
I may need to take it down until the next month. :roll:

Furthermore, I'm thinking maybe my next release of PupWin98
will be based on pizzapup. Maybe not. I dunno. Seeking stability.
May dive into unleashed and train my own puppy.
