I've used multisession DVDs on different computers. If the hardware is not the same, Puppy will realize that. The real answer is, try it and see. A multisession DVD can't hurt anything because it doesn't try to access a HDD when it boots (unless it finds a swap partition.)

Can a Puppy multisession live dvd only be used in the computer it was created on?
I've not used a multisession DVD, but I migrate my pupsave around on my flash drive without problems... I don't see how that would be significantly different (other than perhaps differences in how each burner writes its drive image -- and there are sometimes differences...)
I would make a backup copy of my pupsave, just in case...

Thanks for the info guys.
The main reason for wanting to use a multisession disc is to make it easier for an elderly couple to use on their computer.
I certainly will now give it a try now.
