Good reasons to not have it "installed automatically." Not good reasons to simply not offer the user the option to install it right away, instead of asking the user to go ahead and install it afterwards, which is one of my points.James C wrote:The Puppy installer doesn't automatically install grub and configure the menu lst because 1) some users want grub installed to the mbr while others choose to leave the mbr untouched and 2) some multi-boot users don't want to reinstall grub every time they install, its easier and faster to just edit the menu lst.
True, but what difference does that make to my other point? I installed Puppy, whichever way, and then I choose to install grub. Said grub installation should *not* be left pointing to the Puppy files in the wrong folder, and should *not* be left with missing lines, as if I had installed Puppy a different way.James C wrote:There are several ways to do a frugal install, and the resulting entry in the menu lst will be different as well.
