If I boot my linux mint lappy with a bootable USB drive with Puppy5 on it, i expected to see the lappys hard drive on the bottom left of the desktop. But there is an icon called drives. I click on it and try to mount the hard drive sda1 with mint on it, in order to explore it. But it just says..
"FAILURE! In the case of removable media, the most
common reason is the media is not currently inserted.
Or, you forgot to unmount the previously inserted media.
If so, please remedy."
any ideas?

As far as I understand this is a linux mint issue.
If you did boot from puppy, boot from it again and unmount all resources.
If that doesn't work, you should see in the mint linux forum.

Find packages in a snap and install using Puppy Package Manager (Menu).
