At least in frugal installations.
As full installations do not use initrd.gz, this might be no issue for you.
By the way:
I cannot boot from USB-drives, as my bios does not support it.
But I can do this (frugal):
I just have vmlinuz and initrd.gz on the internal harddisk (which is a CF-Card in an adapter).
The rest (pup_410.sfs, pup_save.2fs) is located on an external USB-drive.
You can boot such a configuration like this:
Code: Select all
title Puppy 410smp (aufs)
root (hd0,5)
kernel /puppy410smp/vmlinuz acpi=force pmedia=idehd pdev1=sdb7 psubdir=puppy410
initrd /puppy410smp/initrd.gz
