Puppy Linux 8.0 32-bit version

14-jun-2019

iso md5 = c6e74041226ff54736528bfddc72fd7e bionicpup32-8.0+7-uefi.iso

BionicPup32 on SourceForge

BionicPup32 on Ibiblio

Kernel 4.9.163 32-bit pae
BUILD_FROM_WOOF=testing;c1a16e15;2019-03-22 12:34:12 +0800

Note: Ubuntu support of Bionic Beaver will end April 2023 (or maybe 2028 if you pay)

n.b. the link above downloads the latest .iso - delta updates are available but have to be applied to the original .iso found here or it can be generated by a reverse_update
Only the latest delta has to be applied as it contains all changes since the original .iso
Deltas can also be converted to pets with this utility.

If you require a 64-bit Puppy based on Ubuntu Bionic Beaver there is Bionicpup64 by 666philb

Delta updates are periodically issued and can be found here

They have to be applied to the original .iso

The original .iso can also be generated using a reverse_update

Only the latest delta has to be applied as it contains all changes made since the original iso was released.

For older systems that won't boot PAE kernels - new kernels have the forcepae option and adding

NOTE: make sure the driver matches your kernel

See:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/zestypup/files/Upup-Bionic/drivers/

for:

Broadcom_wl pet

NVIDIA-Linux-x86-304.137 pet

rtl8812au pet and firmware (Realtek usb wifi dongle)

note: ndiswrapper is not directly available as all builds crash under kernel 4.9

....however if you change to kernel 3.16.45 there is a .pet for that kernel - see

running at the moment on a Dual core Dell INSPIRON E1505 laptop and about to install a LHMP (LAMP with Hiawatha instead of Apache) as a platform for ZoneMinder 1.31.42

so far all systems GO.

Looks like PPM is broken.
In the first package you select everything works fine calculating dependencies and size required. In the second it freezes.
If you change repo or category before the selection, it freezes at the first package.
If you search for a package it also freezes at first attempt.
This is with or without updating databases and at puppmode 5 or 12.
Sorry no time to look at it.

Wallpaper is Woof-CE fault....

PPM is my fault.....

Rebuild and re-upload coming shortly.

peebee · Posted: Sat 28 Apr 2018, 05:55 Post subject:

OK - .iso reuploaded.....

To update the original .iso - rename it to: upupbb-18.05A.iso

then apply delta:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/zestypup/files/Upup-Bionic/updates/upupbb-18.05A.iso___upupbb-18.05.iso.delta/download

New .iso md5:

I used the delta for upupbb-18.05A.iso which is a renamed original upupbb-18.05.iso on 2 different machines and seems to work
but the md5 for upupbb-18.05A.iso___upupbb-18.05.iso.delta did not match.

from : https://sourceforge.net/projects/zestypup/files/Upup-Bionic/updates/upupbb-18.05A.iso___upupbb-18.05.iso.delta/download

the md5 that I am calculating = 5f3d6c88a8751cb51cc391ff5a6541a2
and generated a new ISO -> upupbb-18.05.iso

anyway both ZoneMinder and Shinobi CCTV packages work side by side and I got Flatpak and using it got GIMP 2.10 to install and work.

nice work peebee! this is a great base to test out some serious development platforms...in style and FAST....

Dell Optiplex 990 4 core 8 gigs RAM
Dell INSPIRON E1505 2 core 4 gigs RAM

and I can change the wallpaper and so far the PPM is working...

running 18.05 on a dell laptop. Booted from DVD and created save file on hard drive. Upup creates save file with contents, but on reboot, does not recognizes the changes in the save file. Problem does not occur with previous version
