Puppy 1.0.3 runs great on old laptop

#1 Post by BillK »

Yeehah!
Downloaded OK from ibiblio. Booted up first time. Good old kernel 2.4.27!
Had to do my fixes to rc.local0 to get the ne driver for eth0 and to set up the swap file, then got on the net fine.
Used PupGet to install Dillo and am now browsing the net with almost instant page refresh.

Like a new pc now! Fastest P90 in town. Thanks! :)

Good news indeed. :)

I am running the new Multi Session 1.0.3

If you intend to use this be careful with the instructions.

If creating from Puppy

1. Create a normal Puppy 1.0.3
2. Then use Gcomblast
follow the green instructions at the bottom of this page
