As an alternative one could use a larger pup001 file. MU has some different sizes of pup001 available. Also, FYI, the most that a pupxxx file should be is just under 1 GB.

It is locking up the keyboard so there is no way to get at the menu.lst file.

BTW: Where is this file? I cannot see it on the CD nor do I find it on my 1.0.4 HDD install.

I don't know what bootloader uses menu.lst, but, edoc, see the boot parameters wiki page for more info.

"The standard release of Puppy Linux 1.0.7 uses a boot menu ..."

Does anyone know how one would edit this "boot menu" prior to booting
1.0.7 , please?
