I uploaded the new iso the server is slow ATM for downloads
must be getting a lot of downloads at the same time
so I havent checked the md5sum on the download yet
if you have the 7-7-2010 iso you need this fix
http://www.puppy2.org/slaxer/mime-tgz-fix-1-i486-3_SLXR.txz
for the click on tgz package to install the 7-13-2010 has the fix built in
89f44e890470e19267f4cd329c5d29c0 TXZ_Pup-4.50-7-13-2010.iso
the next iso is called 7-13-2010 I post the link when I confirm the iso
if anyone confirmed the iso md5 let me know I'll try again tomorrow

Why is it that some of the recently released Puppies [including TXZ_Pup] won't boot on my 2002 hardware?

I have a usb connected HDD and a USB flash drive.
Some days ago I booted with the USB HDD connected and got the sda1-sda7 partitions (sda3 being the extended one)
Now I added the USB flash one which only has one partition.
The USB HDD became sdb1-sdb7 (sdb3 being the extended one)
So far so good.
But the USB flash was sda1-sda7, but only sda1 can be mounted as the others don't exist.
What is going on here?

Hey Béèm
check the first post for the new iso
the server is cooking fast now get it while you can
are you on the 7-7-2010 version or the 7-13-2010?
I wrote a simple mount tool
you manually unmount using the ROX unmount that is displayed in
the standard rox menu to keep things safe
remember this is a simple test
the "ok" also works as a refresh the list if you plug in
a USB while the xmounter2 script is running
just click on the script called xmounter2
its only one script
**the only reason I want you try this script is to see
if the other USB's get listed
since it uses a different method of checking than the puppy script
that will help me narrow down the problem

Joe | I boosted the server so as to give me 500KB/sec.
I was on the 07.07.2010 and will switch to 07.13
I had the desktop drive icons redrawn and it is now as it should be.
So no worry about that issue.

Big Bass,
Keep doing what you enjoy doing and I'll keep licking up the crumbs!
I switched to one of your very early Slaxer versions as my main operating system and have never gone back to regular Puppy. This weekend, I'll try your new TXZ version. It sounds great. The only problem is that I have my old Slaxer version tricked out just the way I like it and I'd hate to have to do that all over again -- or maybe it would be great fun to do it all over again. Oh, the decisions!

hey hillside
thanks
testing is safe with
just dont do a version update start clean
I had to remove old 412 sfs you could just rename them also
to pup_412-old.sfs or something else
to prevent the kernel panic error of using a wrong sfs file
then when its time to make the save file save as TXZ the pup file gets auto named from the GUI installer to
pup_save-TXZ.2fs
BTW the TXZ has a new number for the sfs pup_450.sfs
with new icons for 2fs and sfs

Oh, the decisions! | I know the issue. For puppies I did customization also. Mostly things done in a terminal/console.
What I did is put these in a script and when I change a version, I run the script and I am back in business in minutes.
