but as i understand frugal system will consume more RAM than full

@diditt replacing nouveau.ko is a bad idea. Undo it. Since you are using the scpup kernel and zdrv files. Try to load also the scpup fdrv file, rename it as fdrv_tazpup_5.0.sfs, put it beside the zdrv file and reboot tazpuppy i made so but i could not run my chrome browser coz of libc.so.6 (require...

Use frugal method to install TazPuppy without wiping a whole partition. Use save to folder if TazPuppy was installed on a Linux partition.

grub4dos doesnt work on the latest tazpuppy

I have linux.AppImage: cannot execute binary file: Exec format error
