Excellent download speed ~1.5MB/s. Good MD5Sum.
Did frugal install to ext4 partition.
Working extremely well. I have BCM43 wifi chip, which was identified and auto reconnects on reboot.
Very nice, excellent work. Thank you.

Otherwise, things appear to be working correctly.See you went back to the older kernel as well.More testing...

Tried 2 more pets, pet installation is not completed until manually restarting "x".Dialog box just remains until x is manually restarted.Pets do install and work in the end.
Htop and a game were the two pets.

I did a trial Frugal install - hardware all detected OK on old Panasonic Toughbook CF-29 laptop.
Connect via Frisbee OK, Firefox requested and added Flash and looked OK.
I did not choose to Save the install yet ...
Questions:
1. Could opening Firefox in 5x10 and then not saving that temporary Frugal install have corrupted my login settings for Seamonkey in 5x9 E-mail somehow? I am suddenly getting E-mail password errors when I reboot into dpup 5x9 Seamonkey.
2. Can the version of Seamonkey I used with 5x9 also be used with 5x10?
3. Is it OK to use the 5x9 Savefile or might that create problems?
Thanks!

Same thing happened here with an emelfm2 pet (which I have used many times in prior Dpups). The pet did not install completely and Puppy Package Manager aborted (locked midstream) while trying to remove remnants of the pet. After restarting X, the pet did install but emelfm2 was not added to the Puppy menu.

I'm trying a fourth pet.The first three pets installed and had menu entries ....after I restarted "x" and ran "fixmenus" in the terminal. I'm using pets from my private repository (extra directory on my hdd).
This last attempt, I've been staring at the dialog box for about 10 minutes.... no progress.Guess I'll restart 'X' and see if it installs.....

Yes. The Shinobars today posted petget seems to have still some problem. It stucks in pet database checking stage. Shinobar posted the updated package today to fix something, but it looks like there is still problems. I didnt have much time to test it since I wanted to have it and I had woof building under my fingers. Well...it happens.
I have attached now the original petget stuff from the woof. When you install the pet, it replaces Shinobars edited files. Next pet installation after installing this pet should behave normally...I hope so...lol. Emptying the /tmp helps also...if needed after installation..... since it deletes the petget temporary files which sometimes interferes.
I think I will wait if Shinobar can figure out what might interfere his pet in dpup.

Edoc. I would make backup of your 5.X.9 savefile first. Boot 5.X.10 or whatever but not that 5.X.9 and then copy to the safe place the original savefile. Then try to use it with 5.X.10. I dont ever test upgrades or previous savefiles. I start from the scratch. So...I dont know much of the compatibility. About Seamonkey. Test it...and you see. If there is problem...I would like to fix it. But I dont have time to test many apps how compatible they are. I more likely try to fix errors....which testers find...lol.

It seems...that the Frisbee-manager to disable-enable frisbee has been left out. I dont understand in what stage this has happened. But here it is....for those who cant use Frisbee....I know there are those users....whose wireless does not like Frisbee. I use mostly Frisbee, so I didnt notice that it was missing until I checked the menu entries once again.
