On machines with 1Gb of ram, 1.5Gb is shown as available.
On the machine with 2Gb available memory is shown as 958Mb.
Is this a "feature"?

The 1.2 obviously doesn't reflect the RAM, but I think itOld Codger wrote:Puppy 4.2.
The glyph at the bottom right of the panel (and the puppy
space on the widget sidebar).
Also a 384Mb machine reports 1.2Gb of available space!
(actually 1.2gB whatever that means).
does reflect the available space in your pup_save file if Frugal
install or the partition if Full Install.
If not post back with . . . ? ! @ # $
PS GB would mean Gigabytes as in 1000 (1024) Megabytes
I don't know about frugal installs because I either do full installs or run the live cd and save to a usb stick.
On a full install, Puppy shows the space left in the partition.
Using live cd and saving to usb stick, Puppy shows the space left in the pup save file.
Running the live cd with no save file, Puppy shows free ram plus swap, if any. I think......that's the way it works for me anyway.
