I'm way out of my depth here, but I reckon it;'s the best way to learn. I'm a puppy user for a couple of hours, and linux for only a little bit longer, so bear with me. I'm trying hard to break free from windows...... I' started on woshs anjuta procedure to install, but fell at the first hurdle. I d...

I need to install puppy into removable media, rather than dedicated hard disk. I have installed it onto usb, no problems, but are there any pro's / cons for sd card or compact flash.
