I have remastered Digi Pup with the latest Puppy release "2.16".
I was wondering, how to upload the iso image to a repository?
It has the original DigiPup prgs, that are added and checked.

There are quite a few people hosting ISO depositories

TedDog
MU

for example - maybe contact them

Also is it possible to make your very specialised distro but no doubt useful to HAMS (if that is the right word) a .pet - as Warren has done with EZpup? This would mean it would be an add on and always up to date (using the core Pup)

Anyway good luck

Actually, the .pet apps are the same as the original DigiPup.
I wanted the better hardware detection in 2.16, and I found
that one of the original .pet prgs did not work correctly,
so I manually installed it.

This is an ongoing project of mine, as I will be adding applications in the future.

Could you point me to a howto to make .pet packages, and likewise for .sfs packages?

Thanks

DigiPup 2.16 can be found here: http://puppyisos.org/isos/2007-01-to-06/

Just look for "digipup216.iso" at 153743 kb in size..

DigiPup 2.16 has the same applications added to Puppy as the original, but
was remastered using Puppy 2.16 with Firefox as the main browser, and CUPS for printing..

All the .sfs packages will work as well, so adding Open Office sfs will make it
a very powerful OS package for the Amateur radio operator.
