Install opera 8.02 in 1.0.4 bare bones
Hi. Just want to let you know my experiences...
I today ran 1.0.4 bb from live-cd. In my setup, I just use a usb stick for pup001 to save settings etc. no hdd.
I tryied to install opera 7.54 from Puppy packages site. Gave segmentation fault?
(In 1.0.3 bb it works out of the box..? probably missing/wrong libs?)
Then tryied firefox.. didn`t showed up in selection, so manual download to /root and installed as alien package..
Told me about some missing libs... also gave segmentation fault
The went with dillo to www.opera.com.
Downloaded opera 8.0.2 (other os, tar.gz format!!) to /root.
PupGet will not work here, opera has its own installer!
open a rxvt terminal. you should be already in /root (pwd; cd /root)
tar zxvf opera*
cd opera*
./install.sh
answer all questions with y.
./opera should now start opera 8.02
if you want a desktop link, open rox cd to /usr/bin and drag opera icon to desktop...

Always reboot before posting
You should never post before reboot
didn't work after reboot? Probably some files are not saved etc.
changed install prfix dir to /root.
opera then complains about plugin dir.. but I don't use that.. so okay for me
This worked also after reboot.
