Hi, This script will create .sfs file from one or more .pet/.sfs files. It will be useful to add pet packages to already existing .sfs files or create new .sfs file from multiple .pet packages. 1) creating .sfs file from multiple .pet packages,
this will create firefox_411.sfs file. 2) creating .sfs file from .pet package and .sfs file
This will create devx_updated_411.sfs with php which can be used with puppy version 4.11 3) creating .sfs file with different puppyversion number
This will create devx_updated_300.sfs with php which can be used with puppy version 3.00. If you find any errors or improvements in this script, please post here.

Hi mohan34u, your script works great - already made few sfs with it. I just had a problem once with gimp 2.4.5 from ttuxxx http://www.puppylinux.asia/tpp/ttuuxxx/programs/graphics/gimp-2.4.5-i386-full.pet maybe due to: mv "${FILE}" "${FILE%.pet}.tar.gz", when i do that manually then extraction fails (but I don't have any error message from createsfs script...) anyway solved it, by doing it step by step, using pet2tgz , tar xzf, dir2iso. |

Hi mohan34u, thanks a lot for your script.. Sorry if my question could look a bit trivial... please how does one practicaly use the createsfs -f file.pet to get file.sfs? I do not know how to use that script..I tried in a terminal...no success. What stands the $ in front of createsfs for...? Where do I write that script and how run it..? Sorry ... Thanks for any advice Cheers, charlie |

A few questions if I may..... 1/ Do we have a limit on the number of pets that can be added to create a sfs? 2/ Do we have a size limit on the created sfs? 3/ Can you check that this is the right way to predefine the final name of the sfs. $ createsfs -f mysfs pet1.pet pet2.pet pet3.pet creates a sfs with the name "mysfs.sfs" and 4/ Finally, am I allowed to include pathnames for the pets or do they need to be in the one directory thanks scsijon |

to answer my own questions (to date I have found:) 1:- no and yes, Can add more than, but can't seem to get past 63 pets if I wish to add menu items for them. 2:- no 3:- yes 4:- no, must be in the one directory and with plenty of disc space (3-4 times the pet lists total size). |
