But the devs of Fatdog64 wants to only deal with 64-bit for their FatDog
so I ask for a 32-bit version Puppy here.
I don't ask for that that Puppy to be FatDog32 but a multiuser OS
like how FatDog show can be done. So a multiuser OS like FatDog
but without being FatDog.
To learn from their method to make a multiuser OS Puppy.
Wish I could explain in a less confusing way.

I quote one of the developers of FatDog.
"the initscripts are already arch-independent."
I fail to get such text but AFAIK they took T2 and changed the initscript
to allow for Puppy compatibility and then they compiled all the applications
to be 64-bit. So if I where a developer I would most likely do the same but
use 32 bit applications instead. But that is my too naive take on it.
Somehow one should be able to use their scripts but make 32 bit instead?

I am interested in a 32-bit version of FatDog because it is a multi-user

(Edit Now I know them don't share that wish. Them are into 64-bit
and not into 32-bit at all. At least not a FatDog that is 32-bit.
So my wish is that next Puppy would be a multi-user Puppy
because now the average Joe Linux user refuse to use a singleuser
Puppy.
Yes I know that very few developers do care about that criticism.
But now when we do have a modern Puppy like FatDog which are
multi-user then it is unfortunate that it is 64-bit instead of a 32-bit.
Many many users of Linux still have older 32-bit computers.
So it would be great to have a modern 32-bit multi-user Puppy to recommend
Now I am a noob so I know too little. I have a lot of time but lack knowledge
So if the Devs have no time to make the compilation needed for 32-bit
would it be easy enough for a noob to do. I mean if the scripts as such
do it automatically and the only trouble is that it takes many ours a day
and many many days to accomplish but need no special knowledge to do?
As is obvious I know nothing so maybe I am way into fantasy land. Smile
Could one expect a kind of woof script in future that allow us noobs
to accomplish the 32-bit if the developers have no time to let it have
its automatic course or is it a hard and tough job to make it 32-bit from
64-bit?
I apology if all this sounds very ridiculous. All of it is from my heart
caring about all these Linux users keen on the notion of single user root.
I am all for single user root but I do care about all these others
and want them to be able to have a good multi user Puppy Linux.

Nooby, I think it is better to start a new thread for 32-bit puppies and
ask any current developer of 32-bit puppies whether they would like
to include the multi-user functionality. For a start, we have 01micko
lurking here ... :Cool:
The title needs to be edit. But I fail to make it short enough to fit the space.
I am not good enough using English grammar or even good enough at thinking. So I change it and hope for that somebody can help me later.
