When booting from a CD/DVD
1. At the puppy splash screen press F2
2. Type the following : puppy <name of module>.blacklist=yes
If using grub append the same in your kernel line
Example
kernel /vmlinuz atl1c.blacklist=yes
Where atl1c was the module name
This is very useful when your trying to boot a puppy "prestine boot" and you suspect a module is causing puppy to freeze or X fails because of conflicting modules !
