Edit: I just uploaded wary-5.3-BABYbarebones.iso which is the same as the other except I ran it through the babybuilder in woof. This stripped out 17MB of drivers and modules, very impressive BK! Comes in at 66MB. However if this one won't run on your hardware you should use the larger model.
Edit: I just uploaded racy-5.3-BABYbarebones.iso. This one comes in at 68MB thanks to the magic of BK's babybuild and XZ compression which I forgot to use before. As above it may not run on your hardware (although it runs on all of mine).
Edit: I just uploaded wary-5.3-BABYbarebonesXvesa.iso. This one only has the Xvesa video driver but it boots right to desktop, no fooling around with the Xorgwizard.
I took a few liberties. I included a few right click options that I find essential, edit-sfs, untar pet, sfs-load, run_in_terminal, dir2pet, dir2sfs, dir2tgz. I also made leafpad the default texteditor, its actually a smaller less dependent one from Puppy4. There are two icons to the left of the menu button on the jwmtray which restart and shutdown. And I modified PPM so that packages you download will get stored in /root/Downloaded_Packages which you can move to wherever you want and link back into /root.
Ive had a lot of fun playing with these two. Im using a portable version of FreeOffice which resides in a folder on /mnt/home so I have rewritten /usr/local/bin/defaultwordprocessor to
Code: Select all
exec /mnt/home/freeoffice-en/textmaker "$@"
For a browser Im using Opera which I simply downloaded and extracted onto /mnt/home, renamed the folder opera-latest and then rewrote /usr/local/bin/defaultbrowser to
Code: Select all
exec /mnt/home/opera-latest/opera "$@"
For my mediaplayer I use tempestuous xhippo-3.5-gtk2.pet which is really just a filemanager. You configure it to open different filetypes with different programs. Ive got it opening video files with mplayer which I extracted from Mplayer-nodeps.tcz which at less than 1MB and no dependencies is pretty lean. It opens mp3s with madplay, aus with aplay and wavs with wavplay.
My /usr/local/bin/defaultmediaplayer just says
Code: Select all
exec xhippo "$@"
Actually Im just killing time writing all this while my files upload, my connection is pretty slow. I hope you enjoy playing with these. Let me know what I screwed up and if you have any questions feel free to ask
Cheers, J

BareBones Puppies Notes:
Printing:
To print on a network you should only need to install a Cups package.
To print to a usb computer you will need a minimum of Cups, Foomatic, and Ghostscript. Some programs will need more than this to print but the ones I am using are happy with that.
PDF Files
Epdfview needs Poppler and Ghostscript. This is the smallest Gui based printing PDF program I have found. (Correct me if I am wrong, Please!)
