Code: Select all

du -ah /dir/where/Isos/*.iso


would be the proper code I believe as the -sh switches would only output a total size of the ISO files and -ah would list them seperately

Hey there singlshot , sorry but i've been gone a few weeks. No quickpet is not included in PupRescue 2.5 and the PPM has all the package files removed from .Packages so if you take a stock copy of Lucid 5.2.8 and transfer it over to PupRescue 2.5 the PPM will work again. Edit: As noted in one of my ...

If I wanted to run it to scan my whole windows drive for example i'd ...

It was a popup to allow you to install the .pet package which would upgrade you from 5.4.2 to 5.4.3 and yes it was legit.

Oh ok I see what you are saying now. I've never actually seen this happen in Puppy before and do not know if it is possible to have a consistent splash screen through the boot process which would replace the text. I did a quick Google search and searched through the forums and didn't come up with an...

One thing to note is that this is based on precise and requires pae support, if you are planning on working on an older computer which does not support pae I suggest checking out 2.5 (in my sig). As for the apps list if you are using a multisession dvd/cd you can jus th...
