Yeah, that is something built into puppy. It only shows up in live-boot with no save file. I believe it is an html file and there is no html viewer in barebones, so it probably wont show up. i believe the file itself is located somewhere in root.

Nooby, I'm sure that those modules can be added into pupngo, but I would try and find one from the 4 series. U should be able to copy them over and then either modprobe or reboot and see if they are automatically added in.

Delayedrun script loads that welcome page. And the loaded html files are located in /usr/share/doc.

welcome1stboot and welcome1stboot.htm are the loaded stuff.
I have made modified delayedrun script which does not load them at first boot.

Hmm I believe I'm talking about a different file, its a pink banner that shows up at the top of the screen that says "welcom, please click here for getting-started information" I can't first the file for it anywhere and it doesn't show up in 520 so I'm kinda lost on how to get rid of it.

Cheers again hondasid,

I finally got around to constructing a small puplet using your 501 base on the weekend. The basic applications I wanted worked well (although I have a running issue within Firefox for selecting applications like ROX to open the containing folder for downloads - can't seem to solve the problem on the forum). One app I did have some grief with was unfortunately radky's PupControl 1.3. It didn't register PPM well at all, and although you could 'fake' it into refreshing the correct repository sub-categories by selecting different file types to filter - it failed to show packages already installed for possible removal. A gtk issue, perhaps? Everything else I tried, I was really happy with the results. (And with a frugal install I couldn't replicate DPUP5520's finding.)

Thanks!

@Puppyt
You couldn't replicate it because it only shows up on the live cd, pemasu was right it was the Delayedrun script that was causing the problem for me all I had to do was comment out the lines that ran the banner and it no longer showed up when I booted up the cd.

Ok, I've had some connectivity and work issues that haven't allowed me any free time lately. I did try the deps sfs to fix the Opera problem. They were already added in from a previous fix and did not work. The transmission fix works. As far as packages not showing up in PPM, I don't have a clue. I don't believe I removed anything having to do with PPM and I haven't had this problem. I will get the package you spoke of and try to replicate the problem. I'm still working on my other Barebones builds but progress is slow. I have just started a new business and it takes a lot of my time, but Puppy is always a priority for me. I will have results posted soon.

BTW Hondasid Im lovin workin with this barebones that you made, definitely makes things easier when trying to make your own derivative, I managed to make the base os about 6MB smaller than you had it by taking out all the printer/sound files since I don't need them for the pup that i've been workin on but def keep up the great work.

G'day Claude,
I think I have the iso around here somewheres I could stick online for you, if you have any problems. Had a quick check of hondasid's personal webpage for any info on this matter (http://hondasid1984.angelfire.com/) and found only one of his project Puplets still available for download - no Barebones501 there either unfortunately. Maybe DPUP5520 has a tinkered version he might let you know about? Post or PM me whenever,
Cheers

LOL you are right Puppyt I do in fact have a few custom versions of Barebones-501 as well as the original ISO unfortunately used up all my space on Mediafire so I have nowhere to upload any of my ISO files unless if someone has some server space for me.

:) Sorry to "drop you in it", as it were, DPUP5520 - I just found my untinkered copy of Barebones501 and can* post it if/when anyone is interested. Thankyou so much for your unprompted help.
*Warning - I'm in virgin territory with this sort of data sharing - checking out options now...

UPDATE: Huge thankyou to the kind offers for data hosting in this thread: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... 415#373415

G'day Rocco - I've just PM'd you with the details I've set up with "mydrive", and if you are able to download it successfully please let me know if it works. I'm just arranging with SilverPuppy for a more permanent home for hard-to-find puplets that have dropped off the radar, for broader public access,
Cheers!

Thanks! Looks like the download was successful unfortunately, I won't be able to actually test drive the iso until tomorrow.

Right now, I'm working with a fairly slow DSL connection, it took 5 or 6 minutes to download.

HTH any who need it.
