Did you use an already compiled installer on the first post, or did you compile it yourself?
---If you compiled it yourself, where did you install in to?
Do you have any other linuxes installed on your hard drive?
Have you used any version of puppy before on this computer?
Can you also post your C:\menu.lst?

- I used the 5.2 version from the link in the top of this thread that was a .exe file.
- I did have puppy 4.3.1 installed previously on this laptop in the same Lin N Win type configuration.
- I don't have access to the menu.lst right now, but it was generated by the install and appeared slightly different from the typical ones I've used following the Lin N Win instructions in the past.
I had tried a standard Lin N Win install priot to the .exe and had the same results and even tried many different menu.lst configs.
I've also tried placing the pup*.sfs file directly in c:\.

Try this:
-copy the files in C:\Puppy-Linux-520 to C:\
-change the menu.lst to this:

timeout=5
default=0
title Puppy Linux 520
find --set-root --ignore-floppies /initrd.gz
kernel /vmlinuz
initrd /initrd.gz
boot
title Puppy Linux 520 - Do not load save file
find --set-root --ignore-floppies /initrd.gz
kernel /vmlinuz pfix=ram
initrd /initrd.gz
boot
I don't think this problem is related to the windows installer anymore. If the menu.lst is OK, and puppy boots, then it's puppy's fault (I think).
2 things you can try:
1) Double check the MD5 sum on "Puppy Linux 520.exe" (it's 13c4b413ebe0e4f0cbfd1e9ed4ca37dd )
2) Try the 525 installer in the first post.

I'll give it a shot, but I tried the Lin N Win config with my .iso and got the same results even tough the .iso boots and installs fine on other systems. I've had this problem on older versions and it was always something to do with the menu.lst. I'm wondering if the (hd0,0) option is causing some issues since there is a recovery partition on this latop that sows up as a boot option. trying to examine the partitions in gparted shows an "unknown" partition that takes up the entire sata drive?
Thanks a ton for this! Exactly what I was looking for.
I tried the 525 pre-compiled version.
2 things:
1. 2 entries were added in boot.ini instead of one.
2. Persistence isn't working . It says its saving the file. But upon rebooting it doesn't load the saved file. The saved fie is located in my D drive(ntfs partition) Edit: persistence works if the save file in on the C drive . .
puppy is fantastic

Did you have puppy installed before?1. 2 entries were added in boot.ini instead of one.
Do they say the same thing? (Start Puppy Linux)
If you reinstall puppy (keeping save file and deleting grub when asked) do 2 appear still?
If you want to use the D drive for your save file, edit C:\menu.lst and remove the psubdir="Puppy-Linux-525" part.2. Persistence isn't working . It says its saving the file.

nopeDid you have puppy installed before?

no and yes. It says been grubed. not start puppy linux
and I'll try that.
Edit: I tried it again. This time only one entry was created ! So I guess something's messed up at my end. Sorry!
