Note: Ubuntu support of Bionic Beaver will end April 2023 (or maybe 2028 if you pay)

n.b. the link above downloads the latest .iso - delta updates are available but have to be applied to the original .iso found here or it can be generated by a reverse_update
Only the latest delta has to be applied as it contains all changes since the original .iso
Deltas can also be converted to pets with this utility.

If you require a 64-bit Puppy based on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver there is Bionicpup64 by 666philb

Delta updates are periodically issued and can be found here

They have to be applied to the original .iso

The original .iso can also be generated using a reverse_update

Only the latest delta has to be applied as it contains all changes made since the original iso was released.

If you wish to download chromium using the 'Get Web Browser' menu item, please run the following command in a terminal: For older systems that won't boot PAE kernels - new kernels have the forcepae option and adding to kernel line gets it to boot. (note there's a space after -- )

To avoid network interface renaming:
net.ifnames=0 on the kernel line should force naming as eth0 wlan0 etc.

NOTE: make sure the driver matches your kernel

Thanks.

running at the moment on a Dual core Dell INSPIRON E1505 laptop and about to install a LHMP (LAMP with Hiawatha instead of Apache) as a platform for ZoneMinder 1.31.42

so far all systems GO.

except can not change background wallpaper from default.

confirmation on rockedge's ...cannot change wallpaper!

Looks like PPM is broken.
In the first package you select everything works fine calculating dependencies and size required. In the second it freezes.
If you change repo or category before the selection, it freezes at the first package.
If you search for a package it also freezes at first attempt.
This is with or without updating databases and at puppmode 5 or 12.
Sorry no time to look at it.

Wallpaper is Woof-CE fault....

PPM is my fault.....

Rebuild and re-upload coming shortly.

OK - .iso reuploaded.....

To update the original .iso - rename it to: upupbb-18.05A.iso

then apply delta:

New .iso md5:

I updated PPM and added applications,Vlc works well with Smtube, Kodi
runs but no addons are available.

That's it so far,
Thanks.

I can not get a correct download. md5 is wrong after 10 attempts

what am I doing wrong here...is the delta 2.8 megs?

I just downloaded the iso from the link in the first message of this thread and did a new install.

I think to use the delta you need the original iso from the thread before this one and I've misplaced that one.

I used the delta for upupbb-18.05A.iso which is a renamed original upupbb-18.05.iso on 2 different machines and seems to work
but the md5 for upupbb-18.05A.iso___upupbb-18.05.iso.delta did not match.

from : https://sourceforge.net/projects/zestyp ... a/download

the md5 that I am calculating = 5f3d6c88a8751cb51cc391ff5a6541a2
and generated a new ISO -> upupbb-18.05.iso

anyway both ZoneMinder and Shinobi CCTV packages work side by side and I got Flatpak and using it got GIMP 2.10 to install and work.

nice work peebee! this is a great base to test out some serious development platforms...in style and FAST....

Dell Optiplex 990 4 core 8 gigs RAM
Dell INSPIRON E1505 2 core 4 gigs RAM

and I can change the wallpaper and so far the PPM is working...

running 18.05 on a dell laptop. Booted from DVD and created save file on hard drive. Upup creates save file with contents, but on reboot, does not recognizes the changes in the save file. Problem does not occur with previous version

Having had a problem like rockedge, I downloaded the newly-updated ISO. Mine is a frugal install to HD, which uses the SaveFile created with 18.04. No apparent problems using the SaveFile: including updating PPM and changing the Wallpaper. Then Saved and rebooted to a desktop which displayed the changed Wallpaper.

So if there's a problem it must be in the routine 18.05 uses to create a SaveFile.

Both using a venerable 18.04 savefile updated to 18.05 and with a pristine Grub4Dos frugal install from the updated 18.05 iso to SDD on an i5 based laptop, any changes are saved correctly to either the updated or the newly created 256Mb EXT2 non-encrypted savefile. Wallpaper, touchpad setup, SNS wifi and firewall setups all survive reboots correctly here, both on the updated 18.04 savefile and on the newly created savefile under the updated 18.05. No optical drive on this lappie so I can't check DVD installs (I've never done one to be truthful).

Sourceforge d/l not working for UBB this morning, just recycles around options for UBB & AA.

Hi @tlchost

I cannot replicate your problem - please give more details of your setup including format of savefile, contents of menu.lst etc. When you say "previous version" do you mean upupbb-18.04?

md5 given is for the "new" 18.05 ISO after generation - NOT the delta.....

SF is back when I just tested.

Cheers
peebee

I just tried the new 18.05 iso with isoBooter on sdc1 (vfat).
Worked fine, had no problems finding savefolder on sdc2 (ext4).
(sdc is a usb HD.)

SF is back when I just tested.

Yup - got it, ta.
