you can try to add this in the end of /etc/rc.d/rc.shutdown:
Code: Select all
eject
echo "hit a key to close the tray!" >/dev/console
read -n1 a
eject -t

the Live CD would load to Ram, if you had 1 GB of Ram.
I had the same reaction as you in the beginning, until I discovered the Lin'N'Win method.ron wrote:As a fairly new but avid Linux and Puppy user, I would like to make a few comments. I love Puppy for many reasons. I have been running Puppy 4 from a CD-only and I love this system of booting fast from a CD, loading to RAM with a save file on the existing partition. I have an aversion to partitioning/formatting my existing drive (XP on NTFS) and having to deal with a GRUB on bootup. Puppy's system allows a complete, fast, "dual boot" system without the need for all of that. So far, I don't see the need for even a frugal install, at least for me, and if and when the system crashes, it is so easy to replace with a single backed up file. I should mention this Forum also; these people are the greatest.
Work is underway to improve that aspect.Ron wrote:but installing new or updated software is difficult for an unsophisticated user unless there happens to be a .pet for what you want

Thanks for your proposal, but this did not work. The eject never occurred but the next echo did.MU wrote:zgp152
