Export bookmarks.html worked. Thank you mikeb. Posting now from my laptop with Ttuuuxx 2.14V16 booting from CD. Wlan intel 4965 agn works like the charm with ndiswrapper and NETw4x32.INF and .sys. Driverpackage from acer ftp site. Connect pinboard icon >> Ndiswrapper after ndiswrapper -i .inf from the CLI worked asap. Well it went off topic, but you never knows if this helps someone.

Happy now. My son playing fatgames puppy and I can test (old) 2.14 series.

With best regards

The downloaded size seen by a Chinese Windows XP in a PC internetbar here in somewhere city in China is;

472,602,624 bite which means 450MB. But isn't it supposed to be 470MB?

Is the downloaded size correct?

The internet connection is too slow to download something like 470MB so I went out this incredibly cold day to download in a Chinese PC bar.

I have downloaded again but the file size is the same.

I jut wanna know what others got for the file size.

Plaese someone verify the file size.

Yes, size seems ok. It was just estimated. There is a MD5 at the mirror: http://www.puppyisos.org/isos/2009-07-to-12/

I'm a Puppy newbie but a seasoned user of Linux Mint. Have been very impressed and amazed at Puppy 4.3.1.

I was very excited when I read about your games compilation, because my daughter had just given me an old Toshiba Tecra 8000 and asked whether I could make it usable by her 3 1/2 year old son, who is becoming a bit of a computer whizz at nursery school (!). Your solution fits me to a T.

So I burned a CD of FATGamesPup but, it has failed to boot. One disk I ran has a kernel panic and the other one hangs when it searches for video devices. Now obviously that points to a bad download or bad CD burn but I haven't been able to run MD5checksum on them because I can't find out how to do MD5checksums.

ON EDIT:

Sidders has saved the day with his Hansamben derivative (see other message), so I won't be pursuing this any more.

If I search the forums, I find MD5 everywhere, but the messages all say "run MD5 checksum on it". Thanks, but nowhere can I find a Howto for actually running it. Which program do I use? I burned with Brasero and asked it to verify, but then it wouldn't allow me access to the CD file, even when I ran it as root. Very frustrating.

Any suggestions or some help with the MD5 would be appreciated. Sorry I am such a newbie about such things.
