Thank you Shin, it is a great little program, works exactly like it is described and it is what I was looking for. I am using 5.3.1.

Again, thanks

I installed to slacko5.5, Likely worked, I change to -0 (do not save). But,when I install apps (in another day), why it save at pupsave file without run savepupsave ?
Sorry for my English.

Hello shinobar,

I'm ok to translate pupsaveconfig into French.

Question: Can I use the file http://shino.pos.to/linux/puppy/pupsaveconfig.pot, it is updated for version 2.2.5?

Sincerely,

[shinobar]

I tested FR translation with PupsaveConfig v2.2.5 and Precise Puppy v5.4.92.
This seems ok.
Cordialement,

Working in Carolina lite I just noticed that the option to create a 2fs/3fs/4fs only works when I create the personal save file immediately after the first boot from an iso (or pfix=ram).

But when I first make localization / keyboard adjustments, perhaps add some software etc, and then attempt to create a personal save file it fails. First I can not make it larger than 0kb, plus the options for 3fs and 4fs disappear. In this stage a 2fs and 3fs but not 4fs can only be created after ctrl-alt-backspace and the reboot command.

This is both in Carolina and in carolina lite (frugally installed).

I think this is a but in PupSaveConfig 2.2.5 but I am not sure.

Hi Shinobar,

I am using Slacko 5.6 as a "live" distro without any savefile and have a question about the pupsaveconfig shutdown process:

When I shut down I see the pupsave dialog and the countdown timer showing 239, 238, 237 seconds etc. If I do not take any action then pupsaveconfig will shut down the computer after 240 seconds WITHOUT SAVING A SESSION - which is good for me. However, what happens if I have several partitions mounted and programmes running - will pupsaveconfig do a "tidy and safe' shutdown at the end of the 240 second countdown?

Or will it just do a busybox poweroff without any tidy up?

Pupsaveconfig : you are supposed needing a pupsave. Pupsaveconfig send a message after suhtdown "do you want to save session Y/N ",and Puppy user can answer 'no' each time. But if you don't have pupsave, you must change code to never (0) in yr PUPMODE settings.
