Not sure exactly what's going on... I'm no expert on modules, drivers, hardware and kernels.... Sorry.. But what do know is that any problems you are having are 99% likely to be specific to puppy 4.2, not to Arcade itself - so this gives you some room to find others who have solved this..eatyourguitar wrote:I'm having an issue with puppy arcade 10 on CD not showing my internal IDE hard drive. its a known issue on older dell or compaq computers that have a hybrid IDE/SCSI controller. see this thread with the fix
long story short, I need someone to make a puppy arcade 10 ISO with the old kernel or the new kernel with support for my IDE controller. I'm using an old pentium 3 733mhz with a dell BIOS. I cant even boot from USB. but what I dont understand is that my IDE CDROM works fine to boot puppy arcade 10. its on the same IDE controller so why is able to boot but not see other IDE drives on the same controller?
if there is a way to put that IDE hard drive in another computer and load puppy arcade 10, I can do that. I saw the utility that comes with puppy that lets you copy a whole drive to another drive. will that work?
I will have a look into it however, and will post what I learned, if anything!
But also, as a stop gap, this may be of interest to you, and anyone else who wants a different kernel in their puppy arcade.. It is an easy way to change kernels in a remastered Puppy: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=60180
