pls read precedent msg (it was the reason why I did try to start the old CD's)!

the very very old iso's from BK continue to start willing.

error from woof or error from the developer?

I also find wrong don't to use the "UNIFIED" loader (that word stay in the acronym GRUB) that really all great Linux distributions use and I also would prefer to encourage unity of middle if those middle are reasonable... But I am Puppyist since 2003 and as the Puppy community did decide grub4dos I use it until a new full installation from an other great distributor will erase it without I can do somewhat opposite without to have the risk to loose the new installation :idea: .

those manipulations are NOT GOOD for the MBR of our harddisks. The decision of the Puppy community here is an error...

Wow, 20mb Puppy, you got some links to those early Puppies Oui?
Could be a fun little Puppy, sort of like BrowserLinux.

I don't know some download point any more, only my old damaged CD (never used but always unprotected since 2003! In 2003 I did use directly 0.24, only a bit bigger, but its condition is more worse).

I also have yet the extrem tiny release from MU coming very later at the time of releases 1.x or 2.x (10 MB with a good browser; MU did also make a 7 MB version, it did work but was not as well...).
