I will try it later today, and report back.
I don't have my stack of other puppies on live CDs here, but I will go through them later and make a list of which works, and which don't.
What gets quite large? If you're installing Bionic Beaver applications I would expect that. But you should be able to run most of your older, smaller applications built for Lucid after stripping out their larger equivalents.tallboy wrote:A small issue is that is gets quite large...
BTW, the Bionic Beaver wouldn't even boot on one of my old machines, so it seem the search goes on.

I do the same, and repeat a setup I like.mikeslr wrote:I do that and sometimes have to run PupSysInfo to find out which Puppy I booted into.
I usually only use CD -R. They are low priced, and can be used in all my machines. The advantage is that they still can be used in 10-20 years, without losing anything. I use them only for the Puppy and it's settings/configs, all work files are usually saved to a HDD. Most of my usb are 1.st generation - unstable and slow...hamoudoudou wrote:I no longer use CDs and DVDs, however i took a glance at amazon, Cd-RW and DVD-RW
It's expensive !
No, I'm pretty sure the saved sessions from the old CD are not just lumped together on the new CD. Instead, the state of the computer when you save is what makes up the first saved session on the new CD or DVD. So if you have, for example, saved some large programs in one session on the old CD but deleted those programs in a later session on that CD, the programs won't be included in the session you save to begin the "remastered" multisession CD.tallboy wrote:mikeslr wrote:What gets quite large?
Mikeslr, that remark was to Flash, regarding a migration to a new multisession disc. All saved sessions from the last disc is collected to make one larger session on the new disc.
I think CD-R and DVD-R may be expensive where Hamoudoudou lives. Most places in the U.S., they're only about $0.10 each.I usually only use CD -R.

No, I know that. The contents in latest sessions are read first, and Puppy prevent the same contents in older sessions, to overwrite the newer. But you will still have the complete original Puppy copied to the new disc, plus all extras from the sessions. In a remastered version, you may get rid of some extra 'ballast' from the original Puppy.Flash wrote:No, I'm pretty sure the saved sessions from the old CD are not just lumped together on the new CD.
