How to install Puppy to HD, share external HD on network?
Posted: Mon 22 Jan 2007, 19:34
Hi,
first let me describe the situation. I know computers... been there - done that (from w95 to wXP). Now I got a really old macine (P-II 233, 128MB, 6GB HDD) and tought why not use it for email and P2P - this is the only tasks I do daily.
So I looked around and found DSM and PUPPY; I decided for Puppy because of nicer look and feel. So I wanted to install it to HDD. I partioned the HDD, installed it to HDD and it does not want to load from HDD. Can please somebody explain hot to install Puppy to a fresh (unpartitoned) HDD?
The 2nd question is how to work P2P... Ok, I will decide which program, but all download will go to external HDD and I want to share entire HDD. How to share ext. HDD/location to be seen from Windows (i presume it will be FAT32)?
Tnx in advance!
