Das waere toll, wenn das klappen wuerde. DVD-RAM mit festplattenaehnlichen Beschreiben. Theoretisch koennte man dann auf der DVD-RAM eine Festplatteninstallation machen (also nicht Frugal) und von der DVDRam booten! Interessantes Thema. Die Kernelmodule kann man meines Wissens nicht nachtraeglich da...

"I am assuming I would pass the usb partition as well as the PUPMODE. How exactly would I do this and what other arguments would I need to specify." The pupmode will automatically choosen when Puppy starts depending on which kind of install u have done (frugal or full) and from which kind ...

"Also, if you are doing a frugal boot, is every app loaded into ram right a way or only the ones you execute." The main pup217.sfs with applications is loaded into ram. This is one reason Puppy is very fast even if running from CD. Other applications you installed later are saved in a pup_...

take in mind that problem with limited possible write cycles on flash drives. After a hd install there will be much ofter written to your flash drive than with a frugal install. This will decrease thumb drives expectancy of life. So it is not recommendet. But if u want just make full hd install with...

Hallo Puppylinuxw, was für ein Filesystem nutzt Du auf dem Stick? Gruss, jweck Ich habe ein Fat 16 draufgemacht. An manchen Stellen wird auch ein fat 32 genannt, aber ich denke mal mit einem fat 16 bin ich auf der sicheren Seite. Was mich ein bischen wundert ist, daß die Puppy Konsole den stinknorm...

@leachim Diese Datei "usbflash" die da anzulegen ist, ist das einfach eine leere Text Datei? Bei mir gibts beim Booten auch ohne diese Datei keine Probleme. Nur das Anlegen der save.2fs Datei klappt bei den neueren Puppy Versionen irgendwie nicht mehr. Entweder gibt es bei der Erstellung A...

Replies: 12

I encountered the same behaviour. In contrast to the 2.16 behaviour a Puppy 2.00 writes immediately to the save file when flushing. There seems to be another difference too. If i wrote in Puppy 2.00 to /initrd/mnt/dev_save everything was writen at once on media! In 2.16 it seems not to be possible a...

I had crashes too when trying to create pup_save file (512MB) on 2.16.1 running Puppy from USB thumb drive. I tried several times but get it not working. Neither on fat16 nor on fat 32 Partition.
I used 2.00 Opera before with no problems in this regard.

Hi Im considering to buy this writer too. Did u try with DVD-RAM too? The LG is capable writing DVD-RAM as far as i know. (In this case the DVD should be written to like your hard drive) Would be interesting if u can boot from a DVD-RAM or even make full Puppy hd install (not frugal) on it! Greetings
