I couldn't get this to boot up. What is the user name and password for kde puppy?

If I remember well, you just must type "xwin".
A password should not be needed.
If a password is requested, that indicates a corrupt iso, so you might download it again.

I guess that means that I have a corrupt .iso file. I'll try to download it again. Thanks for your input, I appreciate it!

jep.
You can check the checksum while running another Puppy/Linux with

md5sum name.iso

Then compare it with the md5sum provided as seperate textfile for the Iso, if available.

I just ended up running it live. I was trying to boot it using vmware. Sometimes that doesn't always work. Anyhow it's pretty good, and thanks for your suggestions and help. Laughing
