Artie's 4.1.1 setup and tips

[Burn_IT]

I cheat when doing installs on different media.

I have frugal installs in several places.

a) USB stick multiboot with Hiren, DigiWiz (PE XP), and a set of my own tools

b) USB hard drive multiboot as above

c) CD also multiboot as above

d) Local hard drive multiboot using Symon . I have seven OS versions on this one disk and a further seven on a secondary hard disk.

All of the Puppies are started from DOS using the WakePup utility.

All this means that to update ALL of them all I have to do is update one and then copy the updated files to the other media.

Great thread Artie.
I learn new stuff all the time

for example if you are in a ROX folder
press the button under esc that is
`
You now get a terminal (not sure what you do next but can be useful)

Thanks Lobster I haven't updated the main post for a while because I haven't been using my USB stick. I get very restless and have to try new things all the time but I'll check the information in the post and edit a bit. Right now I'm using a frugal install of MediaPup trying to teach myself video editing. Is there no limit to how many mistakes a person can make before he gets it right? There's something called a law of probability isn't there? If so, I must have broken it.
