Rescue disk for puppies.
Posted: Thu 22 Mar 2012, 15:36
Let us imagine a crash in puppy (mine is installed on hard disk).
More often, the "crash" consists in the lack of grafical services.
No Rox-Filer, no Jwm, no icons and colors, Gray desktop. Mouse only
works by its right key. Upgrading by universal installer from same or
newer puppy gets no advantage. Anybody must re-install by "wipe" and not "upgrade" option, loosing all non backuped works.
It seems possible to repair only slacky 531 by "upgrading" by cd the same broken slacky. Upgrading by cd could be much more useful if where copied on the hard disk not only the boot files but the grafical files also.
Universal installer could become a universal rescue.
Saluti. My apologies to you for my spaghetti-english.
