I did exactly that in the first instance but the subject line is blank and when I typed in "Ongoing disaster (SOLVED)" and submitted it that didn't work

Solved

My thanks yet again rcrsn51,
That was successful. I now have a new pup for my mate, we're going out for a pint tonite so the drinks are on him me thinks!!

Hi again rcrsn51,
I ran GRUB4Dos on sdb1(external drive) and it loaded grldr and menu.lst.
It seemed to do everything before quiting.
Thanks

hi there rcrsc51,
Can either GRUB or GRUB4DOS be run when the HD is in the cradle attached to my machine?

It is no possible to run any bootloader on his machine.

Hi there rjbrewer, This is great stuff which I've used successfully in the past. But it doesn't apply in this situation as we are only getting to about image 22 installing the OS to the HD Because of the error which seems to have come out of setting up GRUB4DOS on the Inspiron we removed the Inspiro...

My friend and I set out to implement a puppy on his Dell Inspiron 1150 with 256M RAM. Initially The machine was happy with a copy of Lupu 5.2. We were able to partition the drives with approx 37Gbit main partition and 1G swap partition and loaded Lupu 5.2 onto the HD. My buddy then tried to set up -...

Thanks rcrsn51, For the time being I'm going to leave well alone. Its working don't fix it.

hi there rcrsn51,
Is there a way to remove the hplip-slacko-5.3.3.pet package so that only hplip_print and hplip_scan packages are operating on my machine?

@rcrsn51

Have you installed the hplip_scan-3.12.10a.pet package?

Hi there rcrsn51, If I could divert your attention up a side alley for a second. Interested in what you said about scanning not working on some cannon printers as there were issues with Xsane. I have a similar iproblem with my HP F2480 deskjet. it prints well after your assistance last week but the ...

Hi,
I'm making this post on behalf of a friend - I don't know what the total war series of games is all about.
Does anybody know if Puppy supports this game or is it exclusive to Windoze?

Glad o hear it, I'll stick with what I've got for the time being. Again, many thanks for your help.

Great!! many thanks rcrsn51. loaded hplip_print 3.12.10a.pet - reset everything and its working.

Many thanks

downloaded a copy of HPLIP-slacko-5.3.3.pet, Have you read Page 1 of this thread? A much smaller and simpler driver to try would be the hplip_print-3.12.10a.pet. Thanks rcrsn51, I'll have a look at that but what you say doesn't address the question of why the combination of what I have isn't workin...

I'm running SLACKO 5.3.3 on a Compaq Presario 2100 very successfully on full install. I have also installed my HP F2480 printer to CUPS and downloaded a copy of HPLIP-slacko-5.3.3.pet, both seem to have installed successfully. When I cal for a print, the print appears in the queue and gives a time o...
