Puppy got anything like this? Just curious. I dare say if Puppy did it would be far more portable.
How about a Portable Puppy for Windows?

I happened across this looking at portable apps and saw Portable Ubuntu.

I think what he means, is not to run Puppy in Virtualbox or a machine booted from USB to run Puppy but to run Puppy in Windows as a PortableApp for Windows. Just as you can run AbiWordPortable, e.g.
RSH
"you only wanted to work your Puppies in German", "you are a separatist in that you want Germany to secede from Europe" (musher0) :lol:
No, but I gave my old drum kit away for free to a music store collecting instruments for refugees! :wink:

years ago there was the portable puppy using allinoneqemu.exe which was effectively a portable qemu..... the usb stick was made to run the qemu which then booted the puppy within and voila... if networking went ok (college used a proxy but a windows tool got around finding the gateway ip) you had puppy running on windows..I used at a period of time spent at a college. The neatness of the system was you could boot the same puppy native on linux on the same stick. I had it on a 128MB mp3 player.... ah the days of teenie pups 
Was built using puppy 2 and don't think he has updated his stuff but in theory there is no reason why not.

Even on a modern box, QEMU is typcially very limited in performance unless you have the proper kernel-level modules available such as KQEMU, hence you would really want something light on resources.mikeb wrote:years ago there was the portable puppy using allinoneqemu.exe which was effectively a portable qemu..... the usb stick was made to run the qemu which then booted the puppy within and voila... if networking went ok (college used a proxy but a windows tool got around finding the gateway ip) you had puppy running on windows..I used at a period of time spent at a college.

I'd think of it as how you might think of an old Pentium II box lying around.
yes not the fastest...was ok on pentium 4 machines.
Adding kqemu was not an option on those since the system was rebuilt via ftp on every reboot. (you could delete the lot beforehand though
)
Did help me pass many a boring hour though.
And nothing to stop you using the same stick at home at full speed afterwards.
