Hi.

Really?

2000?

2000 Puppy Linux Operating Systems?

This is really sick, isn't it?

Might be any reason, why Puppy Linux isn't that "Major Distro" as some people over here do want/wish it to be?

Once there was a guy who did passed away (which means: he dies) in front of a bakery shop. He couldn't make a decision -out of 2000 breads- what kind of bread to buy! :lol:

Thank you Ally again for this effort it has been fun to revisit some of the early Pups - they can still be useful and updated.

As for 2000 well, many derivatives - fascinating innovations Slaxerpup for example and a lot of innovations going back into the official Puppy. I don't think personally 2000 variants stops Puppy being more popular than it is. A think its rating is really good and lets face its usuage world wide is a huge.

I have nearly finished to bulk of the upload and have had over 4300 downloads to date so far, I hope that if we keep it active it will stay permanently

I'm keen to collect more so everybody please did through your collections so they can be posted up

at the time my collection started I was a little constrained by drive space and download speed so did not collect devx, pets, sfs's and deltas

I have started to remedy that now but many have come off the net so again please get in touch to add any files you have

cheers

:)

I'll cross-post this one over here, since they appear to be competing archives (hopefully each will supply pointers to the other -- so the packages can be found):

" three and a half gigs of stuff..."

I haven't seen anything through this thread lately, but was recently prodded to upload this relic:

https://archive.org/details/puppy-1.0.5 ... 28Mb-Murga

Since I was spooled up for uploads, these also went up:

https://archive.org/details/0.8.6CdPuppy

https://archive.org/details/puppy0.9.9

https://archive.org/details/puppy-barebones-1.0.4

(Now why is this bugger coming up blank when I add the URLs? OK, when I make the URLs linkable, the whole text disappears... Don't know why, so you'll have to cut and paste to reach them)

Edit: WTF... Now it's going to let me mark them as links...

Code: Select all

 [url] h-t-t-p colon slash slash your link goes here dot com [/url] 
If you put in HTML tags it screws with the server's head and you get a blank message.

That was exactly what I had -- and the whole message (all of the other text as well) would go blank when I marked them as URLs...

Thanks for the patch.

I patched the original message -- now it's going to work. Very goofy...
