hi Nic, Boost requires to be installed in /usr. So, that's why it occupies some space in your personal data save file. After remastering, i see taht my personal space data becomes full again. some of the software has to be installed in specific place such as java otherwise it won't work. Slav, The m...

I know that one is old, doesnt have the latest function that i need.
I install it manually, as instructed on its website.
It's working but it seems to take huge space.

that's why i remaster it, try to get some free space.

Thanks Martin, but you're suggesting vmware. Unfortunately, i am using virtualbox. I;ve tried all other things but with no success. The only thing that works is ftpd. Unfortunatelly, you see that not all folders are shown there. I did try samba @ puppy, but it seems not working. i dont know why. I w...

but, Nic,
the original program is not in pet.
Rather such as library boost, that i need to use with eclipse c++
After i install it takes huge space as big as 500Mb.
So, remaster is the only way. & increase space. i will since i dont use fat 32, i think i use default.

thanks

thanks Galbi,
But, remember this is virtual guest & virtual host.
Will it work still?

thanks

Sorry Gabi,
Mine is the latest, 4.3.10
but, i can't find the fourth option.

appreciate your help anyway.

oo, ok thanks Nic,
this helps a lot.
I will keep mine in frugal.

Mattis and all, I am using puppy precise. Since it is frugal install, i believe i need save file which is limited to 2GB. I can't increase more than that. (havent' tried though) but, people say that it will cause error if it is bigger than 2GB. Or, do you suggest that if i use full install, there is...

hi Phil,
Thanks, i will try vmware next.

Gabi,
Why is that my setting doesnt show the fourth option?
Mine is version 4.10.
What's wrong with mine?
Am i not administrator?
Please look at this screen shot.


thanks

Puppy Precise installed in virtualbox with windows 7 64 bit host. (frugal) I manage to copy back & forth with windows host by using "start ftpd" & Turn ON VirtualBox Only network. However, the problem is many of my data is stored in /mnt/home. If i copy those files into my download...

hi Phil,
I found out that without installing virtualbox guest addition, it works perfectly for my problem 1 : mouse position offset.
Strange.

hi Phil, http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=93262 You did help me before. I've installed the patch kernel already. And, it run successfully, at least no error. Sometimes, i can make it right though by switching back and forth using (Right) ctrl + I. So, if i switch back & forth between...

hi Galbi,
Virtualbox additiona & extension have been installed.
So, not that problem i guess.

Anybody uses puppy linux (precise) inside virtualbox? with win 7 host 64 bit. It looks like so many problems. 1. mouse always off so, i have to press ctrl + I several times, to get it the same location as the cursor. (this doesnt happen when I use ubuntu) 2. i can't access usb drive from virtualbox....

hi Nic
Thanks a lot for the deail explanation.
Now, i fully understand..

Again, tahnks

thanks stemsee for the help

hi Puppus,
Yes, i know how to resize, but isn't there a limit 2GB?

thanks

hi Nic,
Thanks for the help.
1. yes frugal install.
2. only 1 partition. (there is no other partition)
3. the save file is by default, i dont chnage / move it anywhere.
(this file is created by prompting me what name to save).

thanks again Nick.
