Installed 2.10 to hd but still need floppy to boot. Why?

[DELOREAN]

Hi! I'm a new puppy user. I choose it as my S.O. one week ago in order to rescue an old pII 350mhz from the rubish.

Now the computer is OK for Puppy linux 2.10 (160mb ram, 8mb video, 2 hard drives 4Gb). It runs quite fast with Puppy and it seems great.

I have been booting Puppy from the live CD but now I have formated both hard drives and I am prepared to install it as my main S.O.

I have use the ''universal installer'' but I still needing a floppy disk to boot it. So my question is simple:

S.O.?

You need to install grub to mbr.

Sorry, S.O. is spanish. sistema operativo.

I mean O.S., as winblows does.

GRUB? What's grub?

[fluxit]

You should have the option Grub bootloader config in the Control Panel menu category. Grub stands for GRand Unified Bootloader. It allows you to boot Linux, or multiple O.S. from a menu at startup.

I recommend using Grub following this method and using a frugal install ..
