Hi,

I am trying to figure out how to make a HD with only Puppy on it, boot directly to Puppy without having to select "linux (on/dev/hda1) from GRUB.

Puppy is FANTASTIC. Can't believe it does what it does with so little computing power!

open your /boot/grub/menu.lst
change this

# timeout 5 (value might be different)

to this

timeout 0 (boots instantly)

If you are dual booting, then add this line

default=1

under the timeout line (0 is the first grub entry, so 1 is the second.)
