Pizzapup 3.0.1 Final (formerly RC1)
pizzapup-3.0.1.iso (95 MB)

There isn't much to say about this one. For all practical purposes, it's just Pizzapup 3.0 but based on Puppy 2.14 rather than 2.12. That means it has PETget and uses the same XDG hierarchy that Puppy now does. It also has Firefox 2.0.0.2 and the patched Gdmap, and a couple small tweaks. I made very few other changes.

Don't know if it is just me but the puppy installer has a "sanity failure" when you try to install to ide(ata) hard drive says it's Trying to /mnt/hda3 for files.
live cd is in dvd drive but its looking on the hard drive?
I am new to this but I have installed puppy 2.14 and Pizzapup 3.0 on a dual boot on this computer successfully. Just so you know.

I'm a little confused. Is it just a strange blurb, or does the install actually fail? Do you mean it's specific to Pizzapup 3.0.1?
Also, which method were you using, Option 1 (full) or Option 2 (frugal)?
Thanks.

I don't get that far. put uo puppy universal installer set to hda6 then where files are cd then this error ,
oh dear, a "sanity check" has failed
This file : /mnt/hdc/pup_301.sfs
does not exist.
The above is supposed to be a path-to-where-puppy-files-are/pup_xxx.sfs
where "xxx" is the largest version number.
Hit ok button to quit...
runs good on live cd, but if I try to put it to a hard drive or usb flash drive it keeps stating this. first time seeing this from the installer. but i can install pizzapup 3.0 and puppy 2.14 to flash drives and on different partitions on my hard drive.

Oh, okay. It's because I changed it from pup_301.sfs to pza_301.sfs. I must have missed that script though, so that's why it doesn't work. The /mnt/hdc/ bit is normal, that's your cd/dvd drive. Anything with an IDE cable shows up as hd*. Actually, in my computer the only hd* device I have is hda, which is my dvd burner. My harddrive is SATA, so it shows up as sda.
Thanks for letting me know. I'll fix that tonight, and update Firefox to 2.0.0.3 while I'm at it.
Meanwhile, you could manually edit the file if you just can't wait.

Thanks PG. New burn installs fine and works great. Can I talk you into adding Fluxbox as an alternate to icewm? I tried loading Fluxbox from a pup but the menu generation didn't work. The pup hasn't been updated for 2.14 yet. BTW, I like icewm better than jwm. I still can't believe that Puppy isn't more popular. I think it might be because the first impression of plain jane Puppy isn't that good. Your version certainly changes that!
Thanks again for a super derivative.
Dave

Did you ever try the 0.9.x Puppies? Generic 2.14 is very slick in comparison to 0.9.1 (my first Puppy).
I did use Fluxbox once and it was pretty cool. I want to play with window management some more before Pizzapup 3.1, so it might come with something other than IceWM. Fluxbox and XFCE are both on my list of things to experiment with.

I don't know if support is still there, but openbox was a very nice "standardized/compliant" derivative of blackbox
http://icculus.org/openbox/about.php
some of the scripting and setup seems better--kinda like puppy seems(is) better than other linux-based small-scale solutions. If your gonna check out fluxbox--give openbox a nod.

How to get Flash Player installed in Firefox?
PG,
Am loving my hard drive install of 3.01. Can you tell me how to get Flash Player working in Firefox? I want to watch Youtube...
TIA!

Whoops, I forgot to include flash. Doh! I don't use it much, so I didn't think about it.
First, download the flash package:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/fl ... nux.tar.gz
Put it somewhere convenient. I like to use /tmp/NewDir/, but that's just me.
Go to wherever you put it. Now, press the back-quote key (or right-click on it and go to "Window" -> "Terminal Here"). That will open a terminal window. Type
tar -zxf install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz
and press enter to extract it. It will create a directory called "install_flash_player_9_linux" that contains the plugins.
Copy flashplayer.xpt and libflashplayer.so from that directory into /usr/local/firefox/plugins/
Now you can delete install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.gz and install_flash_player_9_linux.tar.
Next, open a window at /root/. Click the "eye" icon on the tool-bar to show the hidden files. Go to the .mozilla directory. Create a new directory inside it called plugins (right-click, New -> Directory).
Go inside that plugins directory. Now, symlink the flashplayer.xpt and libflashplayer.so files from /usr/local/firefox/plugins/ into that directory (drag them with the middle mouse button and choose "link (relative)").
Now you should be good to go.
I'm not going to rebuild this version again with Flash in it, but it will be included in Pizzapup 3.1 whenever I get around to making it.

Worked like a charm...
I am amazed this box does Youtube at all - 400 Celeron, 192MB, 500 MB swap, ancient 2 GB HD out of an old 133 P1 that died years ago.
Thanks again. Another relic has risen from the dead!
Edit - here's what I was trying to watch - no doubt Puppy fans will get a kick out of this:

Pizzapup Number-Lock
I installed your newest pizzapup and I am very impressed. In the last version, 3.0, my wireless card would not work. It worked right of the bat, just like it did in the latest version of puppy.
Now the problem is that in this version the number keylock is enabled. I am running it on a IBM Thinkpad iSeries. 255 mhz with 192 mb of ram and a 4gb hdd.

Forgive me if this is painfully obvious, but, isn't NumLock shuttable-off in the boot-time BIOS setup?thehousedad wrote:Now the problem is that in this version the number keylock is enabled.

Not in this IBM
I have looked in the IBM BIOS but it is not an option. Thank you for your suggestion, I had not thought of that. Anything else I might have overlooked?
