Confused about which 2.10 Puppy release to use for USB boot

#1 Post by racecat »

I downloaded 2.10 on the 16th. At that time, there was reference to a bug (and patch for it) if you intend to boot off a USB flash device. Yesterday, I found my local Micro Center had bulk 1G USB flash drives for $16. Now I want to try USB flash boot, but I'm no longer finding references to the patch. I have downloaded a 2.10r1 which is not discussed anywhere. Is that 2.10 with the aforementioned patch?

I'd eventually like to build a low power small PC with no drives (CD or HD) and possibly no fans.

Thanks,
Bill
