I'm having a problem booting this with my usual frugal setup. My Dell Latitude C400 doesn't have a CD drive and can't boot to USB, so I put the frugal files for Puppy installs in the root of my only partition (ntfs for running Windows XP). Grub4DOS lets me set up my grub menu in windows, and this method works fine for Puppy 4.21, Puppy 4.3, and Macpup Opera 061. Not so for Macpup Foxy 3.0 though. Here's my Grub menu.lst and the resulting error:
menu.lst entry
Grub error
I found this description of the error:
menu.lst entry
Code: Select all
title Macpup Foxy 3 frugal
rootnoverify (hd0,0)
kernel (hd0,0)/vmlinuz pmedia=idehd
initrd (hd0,0)/initrd.gz
Code: Select all
Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format
Anybody have any idea what's up with that?This error is returned if the kernel image being loaded is not recognized as Multiboot or one of the supported native formats (Linux zImage or bzImage, FreeBSD, or NetBSD).

places? sure! why not (i have hear it now) if its was better why not ( we on this forum make puppy beter, right?).ragaman wrote:How about using the module called "Places" for this. It's even better than the one you posted.
from begining i was ask what was hapend when i instaled xfce on macpup, so i am asked, how if on desktop there are a partition or flashdisk icon, so user willbe helpful by that (i am as user)
so how to use this places thing ?
Learning by Doing
I'm not so sure how to install the places modules (or any module) on e17. The places module came preloaded on the MoonOS I'm using. Maybe runtt can help us install this useful e17 module?
I tried copying the places modules from usr/lib/enlightenment/modules of MoonOS. The places showed up at the module loader but coughed up an error (missing file) when I loaded it.
Here's a screenshot of the places module.

"Places" is one of the e17 extra modules.Please look at the 12 post on the first page of this thread. When I update e17 I will try and include as many of the extra modules that will work without crashing e17.
Sorry I dont know what version of e17 moonos is using.
Mr. A I have never used Grub4DOS . I dont know anything about it.

Pri I understand what you are saying . But in all of the macpup's going all the way back to the first one Prit built we have had a Usb icon on wbar and now a usb icon on the ibar to launch pmount.All of your drives and partitions are accessible from there.
I have uploaded another theme .pet called Fox-2 . It will give you two animated backgrounds and two themes. Imago-macpup.edj and Megan-Foz3.edj This will give you the Blue/Black look from macpup foxy 2.0 and Foxy e17 . Both of those themes are based on themes By ZaZoOo from :

Today is a big day for the Macpup project!! Macpup Opera got as high as #6 at DW. The highest I saw Puppylinux get was #2. Today Fox-3 made it to #4

Never mind, I fixed it. My original download of the iso must've been corrupted. That'll teach me to check the checksum in the future!Mr. A wrote:I'm having a problem booting this with my usual frugal setup.

Looks great! I love the Macpup look and feel!
You can get a GTK2 theme that looks a lot like e17 here:

Let me explain about the battery module. The e17 module in this build of e17 maxed out the cpu so I removed it. I have added a script (with alot of help from MU) to have puppy check the battery for you. If you are using a laptop click on the battery icon and it will run the script for you.

My reason for asking is that users on dial-up cannot obtain theruntt21 wrote:I have never used wget. Just go over to the macpup.org page and click on one of the download links .
ISO using a browser. To download something of this size requires
software which can resume a download, because a dial-up
session is slow and timelimited.
