OpenOffice-2.0.4_211.sfs not mounting

#1 Post by jeffplata »

Hi all,

Downloaded the sfs from http://htb65.de/puppylinux/addons/OpenOffice-2.0.4/ and copied it to my /mnt/home dir and reboot. No OO :?. I was expecting to see mounting OpenOffice-2.0.4_211.sfs message or something similar in the boot messages, but nothing.

Background: Using puppy211; did a frugal (type 1?) install. Sorry I'm really not sure but what I know is I installed puppy in a fat32 partition. I could see the files initrd.gz, pup_211.sfs and pup_save.3fs in the root dir. /mnt/home I think is symlinked to /initrd/mnt/dev_save, and this is where OpenOffice-2.0.4_211.sfs resides.

Please help. TIA.

You also need the small dotpup, then run it from the menu, or type "swriter".
