I think the problem you are having is the same I had. I could not get my USB jump drive to boot until I ran SYSLINUX -s Z: The instructions on the Puppy website do not mention syslinux. Here is what I did to get Puppy to boot: 1. Copy Puppy Linux files to Z: vmlinuz initrd.gz pup_212.sfs isolinux.cf...

Using Puppy 2.12 -- cannot find devx_212.sfs but heard that 211 should work. How do you mount devx_211.sfs? These don't work: -------------------- mount -t squashfs -0 loop /mnt/sda1/devx_211.sfs /mnt/data "mount: Mounting /mnt/sda1/devx_211.sfs on /mnt/data failed: Invalid argument" mount...

SOLVED -- THIS IS HOW I GOT PUPPY TO BOOT FROM USB DRIVE. Thought I would detail what I did to finally create a bootable Puppy USB drive. I used a Corsair 4GB USB drive (my Z: drive), Puppy version 2.12. This has baffled me for some time so I thought it might help others. Carl The procedure I used: ...

I play with 2 Linux distos -- Puppy and Ubuntu. Both have certain attributes that I like -- but Puppy is my favorite. I have Beryl running on my copy of Ubuntu and that is a very desirable feature. Beryl's roating cube is very very nice thing to have. Not only is it the ultimate in eye candy but it ...

Regarding installing Puppy to your Hard Drive, give us your impression on how fast it boots up.

How do you mount the development environment: devx_210.sfs?

I tried:

# mount -o loop ./devx_210.sfs /root

but I get an "Could not setup loop device" error.

Thanks

Here is the information I used to make my Thumb Drive boot:

I attempted to create a USB Thumb Drive Puppy Linux and this is how I failed: Copied the following files to Thumb Drive: VMLINUZ INITRD.GZ PUP_202.SFS tested - would not boot. ran: syslinux -s Z: tested - would not boot. I'm using a corsair memory thumb drive. My BIOS has the Thumb Drive as the firs...

What is the programming environment like under Linux? I'm new to Linux but do have Puppy running on CDROM. My programming experience on Windows is Visual Studio .NET. Is there something similar for Linux? For Puppy? I've programmed in C on Unix in the past which was basically command line - i.e. cc ...

Thanks PizzasGood. I took your suggestion and inserted those commands in /etc/rc.d/rc.local and that got Wireless fixed for me.

Thanks much

I finally got Wireless working but is this the best way? (Using Puppy Pro 2.10 on a notebook using a Linksys WPC54G PCMCIA card) What I have to do on each boot up: ---------------------------------------- Install wifi-1.0.0.4-beta-2.pup (mount the drive that has this pup file, click on the pup file...

Do you think the reason I get erros with the "pup_save.3fs" file is that it needs to be formated first? How is a pup_save.3fs initially created?

Thanks

I'm using puppy210r1-seamonkey.iso on a relatively new Gateway Tablet PC. I've monitored the Puppy development saga on and off for several months and now back into it. Some concepts I need some help with - if you can answer these, I would be very thankful: - if the hard drive is NTFS, will Puppy wri...

BTW, I'm running Puppy on a Gateway Tablet Notebook. Sound works, LAN works, mouse, video. The issues are how my configuration to a PUP001 file, and I have not gotten Wireless Internet to work.

Thanks

CW

I burned puppy 2.10 Seamonkey and boot it. I had a pup001 file that I renamed to pup_save.3fs. Then I followed instructions to defrag and expand it by 128MB. I get this error on boot up: Mounting /dev/loop1 /pup_ro1 failed. Invalid argument Mounting /pup_save.3fs No Journal on filesystem on loop1 pa...

Reset the router to utilize WEP instead of WPA... still won't connect. Response messages are the same.

Carl

Oh my, I feel stupid. Your responses reminded my I have my router set up to accept WPA with preshared key - not WEP. How do I instruct Puppy to utilize WPA?

I am using Puppy 1.0.5 and trying to get the Linksys wireless card (WPC54G) to work. After clicking on WAG, I get: autoconnect --- no CWMOSER --- yes Connected to: wlan0 IEEE 802.11g, ESSID:"cwmoser" Mode:Ad-Hoc Frequency:2.412GHz Cell: 00:00:00:00:00:00 Encryption key:off Link Quality:100...

I've got an old Compaq IPAQ desktop PC (1Ghz P3, 256MB Ram) I purchased on Ebay. There are a lot of these type PC's on Ebay and they go for a song -- and would make great Puppy Linux machines. Anyway, under Windows 2000, the IPAQ will do 1280x1024 16k video resolution but with Puppy Linux 1.0.5, I c...
