I don't know the first thing about online repositories for such large distros, but I wonder whether you could package all your rars into a single file and mirror it somewhere like here- https://archive.org/details/puppylinux? I had trouble downloading all my pieces (still trying ;) )

I want this too but as its in parts I have no Idea what to do. How do I join the files?

The original version was 1 iso.

Got all the RAR's - Cheers! This time I used Pwsget (Upup 3.8.3) and downloaded to off-home partitions, avoiding problems with rapidly-contracting pupsave, flaky wifi, browser issues etc etc. Will combine them all later tonight and give it a going-over. Thanks again!

And here is an alternative to extracting/join the rar-parts, but here you will need wine and winrar:

(wine and winrar in csipesz-isos BASIC OPTION)

post "revised" on first page or header of your thread

#30 Post by nancy reagan »

I think you should mention in your first introduction page that you have revised your first edition, by making a link to your today's post.

And mention in the header of your thread.

Hello csipesz.

Great Work on the new "fatty" .

The reason I like this puppy is it has everything I need to out of the box.
I do a bit of work in the community thru a local charity as a pc fix it man, I also do work with a few schools that have kids with special needs, But no Pc. Solution. Get a older laptop ( ebay under 100 bucks section)Local pc shop donation or other sources ( all legal) yes I stop and pick up old pcs from the road side now for parts. Install puppy 'fatty" give the person the laptop show then how to use it. And because of this puppy is great because it boots from just about anything( yet to see it boot from a potato) Preferred boot option is micro USB or sd card( some of the kids can be a bit rough on the laptop and some do not have a hdd). So as I do not know much linux I have been trying out various ways of installing booting etc seeing what works where and how. And asking some questions if I do not understand something or just blunder thru it till it works.
Eg.
On all the lap tops I have set up puppy(8 full installs to hdd) 1 each to usb and sd card I found that simple network set up works great for wifi.

So I guess I can say this has been tested quite well by me No issues so far It all works well.

Now you know what I am doing with your "fatty"puppy.

Good day

Anyone seeding this in a torrent somewhere?

Apart from that:

Thank you so much for this. Will definitely try it out as soon as I can.
I live in South Arica and although internet access is improving rapidly here I do not wish to be dependent on it or often need to help or work with people who struggle with internet connections. I am therefore looking for bigger, fatter, linux distros that have more packages pre-installed. Or in this instance simply on the disc to use.

Tried Legacy OS for this purpose and that was quite impressive but seemed to be a bit dated and aimed solely at older hardware. This looks newer and up to date.

Regards
