what a plonker I am
rpi2 has armv7 not the v6 raspi was built for
go here:
http://www.berryterminal.com/doku.php/berryboot
there is puppy alpha 4 from the download os option after running berry boot or you can add raspi manually
also, if you see the fatdog arm thread you can run fatdog using the bootloader with a config.txt mod
my bad....

Well Thank you, Its nice to see a old friend on the Raspberry Pi.
That worked a treat. Ok now that I know the alpha4 on here is arm 6 only, what happens when it downloads Berryboot? How's it converted? Must be a manual way of doing it? anyways Thanks once again.

sorry I not entirely sure what you are asking
if it's how to run berryboot:
download the rpi2 berryboot file
http://sourceforge.net/projects/berrybo ... p/download
extract to a folder of your choosing
copy the extracted files from the folder (don't extract directly, didn't work for me) to a clean fat32 card
whack it in the pi and follow the instructions, download and install an os from the list
after a reboot you can add an os .img file manually
armv7 is backwards compatible so it can run armv6 but need a device specific (rpi2) bootloader, berryboot fulfils this function
if this wasn't what your question was please ask it again.......

Exactly four years ago, on 29 February 2012, we unleashed the original 256MB Raspberry Pi Model B on a largely unsuspecting world. Since then, we’ve shipped over eight million units, including three million units of Raspberry Pi 2, making us the UK’s all-time best-selling computer. The Raspberry Pi Foundation has grown from a handful of volunteers to have over sixty full-time employees, including our new friends from Code Club. We’ve sent a Raspberry Pi to the International Space Station and are training teachers around the world through our Picademy program.
...
A 1.2GHz 64-bit quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 CPU (~10x the performance of Raspberry Pi 1)
Integrated 802.11n wireless LAN and Bluetooth 4.1
Complete compatibility with Raspberry Pi 1 and 2

Tip:
Turn off the num-lock key and the arrows on the numbers pad can be used
________________________________________________
To change keyboard language --->
go to /etc/X11/xorg.conf
Look at keyboard section....
change us to es (for spanish)
change us to fr (for french AZERTY)
change us to de (for German keyboard)
Then restart x
_________________________________________________
To install the devx package use Barry's tip
Normally, they can be chosen to load at bootup by the BootManager, however, this installation on the SD card does not support that mechanism, you have to do it manually (and it is irreversible):
Click on the devx-*.sfs file, which will mount it. Open a terminal in the mounted directory (press back-tick character) and copy the contents to the root filesystem:
> cp -a -f --remove-destination * /
> sync
Then click on the .sfs icon again to unmount it.
Regards,
Barry Kauler
