Puppy looks for personal save files if pfix=ram is nor specified. Currently I am using puppy lucid 5.28 which searched deep in sub sub directory wasting lot of time. I want puppy to use just a save file in root directory.
i am starting puppy from windows using:
linld.com image=vmlinu~1 initrd=initrd~1.gz cl=lupulin.txt
Options in lupulin.txt :
pkeys=us
acpi=off
pmedia=idehd
pdev1=sda2
pupsfs=sda2:/lupu_528.sfs
psubok=FALSE
psave=sda2:/lupusave-lcd1024.2fs
Still puppy searches in sub sub directories.
Can anybody tell me how to prevent puppy to search when psave option is already specified ? Or is there any syntax error in my file ?
How to stop Puppy from searching for personal save files?

I think the psubOK and psave parameters were relevant to an earlier version of Puppy (4.3.1?). They are ignored in 5.2.8.
As RetroTechGuy has intimated it would be best to move your pup files and associated save file to a subdirectory and use the psubdir parameter to point to it. Then the searching is very quick. I don't think you can use psubdir to point to the root directory so best to move things to a subdirectory.
