I assume you mean the additions to install to a guest Puppy system, correct?

It's a little late now, and I'll probably have a very full schedule this week, but come Friday or Saturday, I'll give it a shot, see what I can manage.

Do you have a particular host OS in mind? (It shouldn't matter, but I'm curious, and I would prefer to have too much information rather than too little.)

Yes.

I just want a very small but full featured - GUI, GA, etc. - guest OS for testing purpose.

I'm going to build a two node cluster testing VBox some features like teleportation and multi-monitor. I think multi-monitor isn't my wanted feature virtualizing a real dual-head setup, as I can see because I can't configure more screens only doubled (tripled, etc.) horizontaly resolution.

The wanted testbed is under construction with AMD Phenom II X4 CPUs with 8GB RAM, each. But the present testbed which is a little bit old HP ML-350 G4 server pair has got just 512MB RAM which is very few testing today OSes.

TIA,
