this would have really been useful to refractahrpup, since it seems to outline what people do to puppify a debian distro.

i would much rather use this than woof-ce, though i suppose the result is more of a debian-deriv which is less puppy-like, at least compared to what woof produces.

???????????

Is this a test report or just an off-hand comment?

its actually a compliment that i would personally prefer this development path to woof-ce... (having tried similar on my own)

with acknowledgment to the suitability of woof for what it does.

i said that already, but since the wording was probably easy to take the wrong way, ive re-worded it. THAT SAID-- i may have misinterpreted what this is (it certainly looks like a starting point for a fairly puppy-like debian-based distro, please let me know if its not.)

pr in short:

"good idea?"

It is a debian live based distro that is puppy like. It is made to boot either with porteus boot or with debian live boot.

It is one step past the starting point. The starting point is this script,

http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=111199

which can generate many different versions. This is a premade version with no applications for people who don't want to use the script. You probably more interested in the script.

It as its own website. https://debiandog.github.io/doglinux/

No it's not.

If John Murga is unhappy with its presence, he can move it elsewhere or remove it completely.

But he hasn't.

Square brackets deleted in the quotation.

Okay, you are breaking the margins on purpose. Because one person posted something that you (but apparently not the moderator) thinks is off topic,
you are breaking the board intentional for everyone.

Grow up and please edit your message so it doesn't break the forum.

SPAM is prolific in the Puppy Projects thread. Unlike other spam in other walks of life that can be easily filtered, that SPAM cannot.

Rufwoof, please send me a PM with the URLs of posts with spam in them. You'll find the URL of a post in the small white rectangle to the left to the word "Posted" at the top of a post.

If you have a suggestion for a better place for this thread, feel free to include that as well. Thank you.

Never mind. Rufwoof's mini-vandalism didn't show in my computer so I thought it was fixed. Not until I clicked on "Quote" in his post did I see what he'd done. I've removed the offending link from his post and banned rufwoof.

Changing your computer's hostname

At one time, this was a BFD in Puppy. It was deemed essential that the name change happened on-the-fly, which required multiple steps.

But it's actually quite simple:

1. Update the hostname file: echo NEW_NAME > /etc/hostname
2. Reboot.
