If you run Muppy frugal, you can use "psubdir" in Grubs menu.lst.Something I found useful on Puppy 4 series is the option to change the foler where the save file goes. Helpful when putting several frugal installs into one partition.
Here is an example:
Code: Select all
title Muppy 0084 Mini english
root (hd0,5)
kernel /muppy0084en/vmlinuz acpi=force pmedia=idehd pdev1=sda7 psubdir=muppy0084miniEN
initrd /muppy0084en/initrd.gz
title Muppy 0084 Live deutsch
root (hd0,5)
kernel /muppy0084/vmlinuz acpi=force pmedia=idehd pdev1=sda7 psubdir=muppy0084
initrd /muppy0084/initrd.gz
If you put more than one savefile there, you get a menu at startup, to choose one.
So I usually create a second "dummy" savefile, to show this menu:
msy_save-DUMMY.2fs
This can be a empty textfile. It cannot be loaded, but forces the menu to be shown.
In the menu, you now can use the first option "0 - boot to ram".
Then you can shutdown to create a new, valid savefile with a new name.
