Ok as previous release but including all files to export and mount NFS shares..as well as a slight fix for XFree....nothing major just a fix for a symlink
/etc/rc.d/rc.local has some commented lines for setting up a wireless card supported by the madwifi driver and commented lines to run nfs startup scripts

Another note......on initial boot you can stop the configure script by ctrl-c and type...this will also work with the previous release
#X -configure
This allows X to write a config file that you can copy to /etc/X11/XF86Config
#cp /root/XF86Config.new /etc/X11/XF86Config
#xwin

Just that the
/var/lib/xkb & /var/lib/xsm directories were missing
if you add
to /etc/rc.d/rc.local it will be cool
Not a real big deal
And on first boot when rc.local is created it just has some lines in it as comments to make getting a wireless card going....just more or less to save some typing
/var/lib/xkb & /var/lib/xsm directories were missing
if you add
Code: Select all
/bin/mkdir /var/lib/xsm
/bin/mkdir /var/lib/xkb

Got the first fb/atheros 1.0.4 working. Its quite nice. I'm holding off from attempting a HD install until I get the second fb/atheros 1.0.4 downloaded.
Running Puppy from CD, I forgot how RAM heavy it was. 45Mb (of 128) ram used, 25Mb (of 150) swap used. My HD install usually boots 9.5Mb ram, 0Mb swap. Running a swap off of flash sounds more damaging than running Puppy uncompressed, so I won't get to play with all the compressed internal CF work that's been going on. (once I can crowbar an adapter into my laptop, that is)
I've spent the last several weeks working on a combination wireless diagnostic/configuration/ap detection tool. Trying to write it all in shell script, as my first script (fun fun, my grep/string handling is still buggy). Now that I've experience wireless drivers (ndis, kernel, and 'regular') I should be able to make it much more flexible.
Bladehunter, thanks!
