Running Xenialpup. Does it access the hard drive OK? Can read and write to it with no problems? The last time Windows 10 was used. Was it a complete power off shutdown or a hibernate shutdown? Yes, it can access the HDD without problems. Windows 10 updated and used daily (due to problems with puppy ...

Are you seeing a menu with several options to how Xenialpup boots?
Or
Is it just booting?
Yes, I see the typical options (run xenial, run without save file, for machines with video problems, etc). I click on the first, after that it just boots

@morochos: The other two computers are also using the same Xenialpup usb and work? Are they Windows 10 machines also? I thought the difference was the new init, but if the other two machines load the savefile from HDD in the Xenialpup 7.5 usb automatically then maybe not. The other 2 PCs use the ...

Re: SaveFile not on same partition/drive as other needed files

Hi morochos, There is a boot command which can be used. AFAIK it comes in two forms that may help with problematic storage media. The command is pdev or pdev1, See http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=614539#614539 and http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=77120 . It is used as part ...

The xenial puppy is booted from a usb drive, but the save file is in the HDD ext4 partition.
In my other 2 computers, this problem is not happening.
Thanks to all for the interest

I've never had a machine with Windows 10, how are you booting into the puppy? As far as I understand it, Win10's hybrid-boot/half-hybernate default shutdown locks you out from using anything else, or maybe just from accessing that partition, or maybe that was an old problem Linux managed to ...

There, in the lower module, look for installed software, in this case, JRE. Click on it to uninstall. Check also Menu>Setup>SFS load on the fly. If JRE is ...
