Puppy 1.0.5a1
if you are downloading puppy-barebones-1.0.5alpha1.iso
you want to use puppy-barebones-1.0.5alpha1.iso.txt
to check the md5sums
not puppy-barebones-1.0.4.iso.txt
if you use wget, it's really easy
download puppy-barebones-1.0.4.iso.txt
then press the downarrow key to repeat the command
remove .txt using the backspace key and press enter

Sorry, broken english above :-)

With thanks to Rasa (for code help in Vector) and Barry for our new Pup Compiler . . .
For a very simple program. e.g. Hello world or the below test.c you don't even need compilation parameters
create the above as test.c
open an rxvt in the same directory (you can use rox for this)
type cc test.c -o test
Or if you use gnu C compiler
gcc test.c -o test
will generate a test executable file
which you can run from the terminal like so
./test
Have Puppy - can compile C

Code: Select all
/* Test by Lobster June 1 2005 */
int main()
{ int i;
for (i = 0; i < 50000; i++)
{
printf ("%d",i);
printf (" Puppy is Great\n");
}
return 0;
}

You'll need a mounted partition with enough space.danleff wrote:Now, how does one set the alpha system up to compile the kernel?
This is what I need to compile the sata drivers directly into the kernel.
Of course, running from the cd causes the uncompressed kernel to run out of space.
I just mounted the partition that has Vector installed, as that's where I've got the kernel source.
On the other hand, if you really need the source to be at /usr/src/linux-2.4.29, ummm, then either increase the size of the pup001 file, or i suppose a symlink would work.
OK, I see now.
I'm also going to try it with a hard drive installation, as well.
If this works out well, I will do a how-to (wiki?).
I have one started for a plain ide drive installation with sata support, as modules.
I'll let all know how it goes.

I love it when a plan comes together

Yea!
I just finished compiling the VPN client.
Now I can fully remote to my office.
With VPN client + rdesktop I can monitor and control the Windows2000 servers from Puppy!
and I can remote to my home from the office with ssh + vncclient !
To compile the VPN client I required the kernel source. I just downloaded it from the official site, extracted it in /usr/src and that was it. I did not have to compile it, though, but there are many apps that just require the headers.
If there are people interested I could create the VPN DotPup.
Now Barry,
For this puppy, the limit is the sky.
I will have to change my reviews after version 1.0.5. as my only 'con' was the need to compile in another distro.
Many people (including me) are going to be very happy.

Thanks BladeHbladehunter wrote:cc is just a symlink to gcc....there is no difference......It's put there for the sake of Makefiles that ,rightly, don't assume gcc is the default compiler. That symlink could in fact point to tinycccccccccccccccccccccc
this is what I was looking for all along
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions ... e&artid=33
I think there is a lot of interest in this and I wonder what sort of small ide or interface creator we should be looking at?
I am not a great fan of C - BUT it is very important for those who do and indeed have to use it.
Freeing ourselves from Vector and Mandrake and other environments (for compiling on) is great.
Compiling the source code is not that difficult - it has always seemed mysterious to me. Writing it is not something I contemplate doing but of course for those who wish to learn C Puppy would be an ideal environment.

I spent time putting something exactly like this together........beat Barry to it by ages, even included a small console IDE and no-one gave a fucking shitI think there is a lot of interest in this and I wonder what sort of small ide or interface creator we should be looking at?

What you get all the fun of doing it and expect recognition too? - tsk tsk - not in this dimension . . .
A lot of what you do BladeH is way over my head or explained in a way that I barely understand. For example the framebuffer Atheros.iso
I downloaded and burnt a copy but it would not run, so I assumed it required
a machine that was having graphics display problems that this would solve.
The number of users at present who would value a console IDE - not sure but again they are more likely to download it and use it and be too maverick to even mention it.
Are you gonna tell us about it or have you succumbed to the dark side of the force? If so I have a wrathful (deals with the dark side) Buddhist practice involving a troup of Astral Hell Hounds that you might be too terrified to resist . . .
tee hee [with extra cackle]

bladehunter, do you still have the things you worked on and is it still availlable? If so could you tell us where? Sometimes the timing of things is important. I am seeing that many of the small usefull programs in Puppy are writtened in Tcl . Would your IDE help some of us to learn Tcl. Back in the late 80s, I learned to use COMAL . It had a very simple ide, but it allowed me to learn it and write programs with it. Tcl seems to be the thing to learn for Puppy. I may be sounding like a fool here because of my ignorance, but some of us do appreciate what you do! You have helped me several times and I thank you!
