news! (see firs post)

I added a new .pet version compressed with upx saving 12 of space (package is 24 MB, 63 once installed, instead of 75)

I tested also sfs packages with latest jrb sfs linker and are working fine without problems

so, abushcrafter, please to specify what version of puppy are using (type also uname -a in console for kernel)

I guess you are using not regular Puppy series, but a pupplet (what pupplet? (name), I tested on Puppy 4.3.1 and sfs package is fully working, o, in addition to kernle you must add the name of pupplet you are using

Powered Puppy! Laughing

Its just the normal puppy 431 heavy customized. So that's loads of apps which are configured. I plan to upload it as a pupplet when I have finished.

I will check that I did test your sfs because I am not so shore now that I did Embarassed

may be not the original, I have builds several other sfs packages for testing, best thing you can do is re-download zip and check md5sum, even is not a md5sum problem

I confirm that SFS version work perfectly in puppy 4.31 With SFS linker. I can mount it on fly and work well.
You did a nice job Dingo, because the 0.36 version in puppy is really poor. But I know that puppy primary goal is the tiny size instead the last complete version of stuff. So your full complete version can be useful for who have enought computer power.

The version ttuuxxx suggested (0.45.1 static) works perfectly on versions I have tested (4.0 ,4.1.2, 4.2.1) but the latest 0.47 giving some issues (some deps, I see) on Puppy 4.2.1. Hmmm...
In any case 0.45.1 static is still highly useful once you get to know it better.
