You can copy the Puppy iso into /tmp by first finding the iso using ROX (you do remember where you put the iso?

Then the first thing you should do is disconnect your hard disk drive and leave it that way until you get Puppy working well from CD or USB flash drive. Then work on recovering what you can from the hard disk drive. At the least, don't try to access it any more.hhm7163 wrote:I'm not sure that my HD is functional. Although I can access my folders I cannot access the files, pictures or other content. A window pops up basicly telling me that, but in some generic language.
Booted how? From a CD? If so, how are you burning the CDs?hhm7163 wrote:I downloaded both Lucid Puppy Plus and Exprimo from the suggested sites and neither one booted. Only Wary will boot.
When you downloaded the iso, were you in Windows?hhm7163 wrote:Flash--
I have no idea as to iso location. Messed around with ROX and nothing.
Puppy's filesystem is a bit confusing for the beginner. The problem I had with it was that when you open ROX, you are in what's called the Root directory. I initially assumed that this was the topmost level of Puppy's directory structure, but confusingly there is a subdirectory called Root, and that's where ROX is when it first opens. Probably that directory should be called Home. That's how I think of it.hhm7163 wrote:As to /tmp, I went to ROX>My Documents>tmp>README-tmp.txt>A general purpose temporary folder. Couldn't find any other tmp.
