Thanks semme,

Unfortunately, no, that's not the one. I tried it already and went back through everything I could find to indicate the os...it's actually Luci-2.5.2.

I think this was out only for a short period of time and maybe an experimental type thing, not sure. I downloaded the copy I have back in May 2011(at least that's what I wrote on it when I d/l it).

The 5.2.5 does work, it just does not compile BaCon.-- Gives errors like could not parse a 'PRINT "test" ' line, Segment faults for things such as ' GLOBAL a TYPE long', GLOBAL cal$ array 100', GLOBAL cal$ TYPE array 100', and 'GLOBAL cal$ ARRAY 100' to list a few options I tried.

I'm thinking about abandoning Luci and re-uping with the newest WARY if I can get it run without hesitation on the old K6-2 233Mhz 128MB thinkpad I use. It ran great though and some of the releases since have bogged the old boy down a little - that's why it's still running.

Anyway, If anyone has a copy of the dev for it - i'm still looking atm!

Thanks!

Thanks semme,

Here is what it said:
#One or more words that identify this distribution:
DISTRO_NAME='Lucid Puppy'

#A three-digit numeric value, version number of this distribution:
DISTRO_VERSION=252

#A two-digit numeric value, minor-version number of this distribution:
DISTRO_MINOR_VERSION=00

#The distro whose binary packages were used to build this distribution:
DISTRO_BINARY_COMPAT='ubuntu'

#Prefix for some filenames: exs: lucisave.2fs, luci-252.sfs
DISTRO_FILE_PREFIX='luci'

#The version of the distro whose binary packages were used to build this distro:
DISTRO_COMPAT_VERSION='lucid'

#the kernel pet package used:
DISTRO_KERNEL_PET='linux_kernel-2.6.33.2-tickless_smp_patched-L3.pet'

#16-byte alpha-numeric ID-string appended to vmlinuz, luci_252.sfs, zl252332.sfs and devx.sfs:
DISTRO_IDSTRING='l252110309211007'

#Puppy default filenames...

#Note, the 'SFS' files below are what the 'init' script in initrd.gz searches for,

#for the partition, path and actual files loaded, see PUPSFS and ZDRV in /etc/rc.d/PUPSTATE
DISTRO_PUPPYSFS='luci_252.sfs'
DISTRO_ZDRVSFS='zl252332.sfs'

Well, i've been sniffing around on your behalf,
and i cannot find that particular piece of 'rocking horse poo' :wink: :wink:

I did however locate these: There is also a copy of your ISO on that site too: http://diddywahdiddy.net/Puppy500/luci-252.iso

Depending on how much you have installed in your current install, and if you have the inclination to start over,
maybe you could try with the following: Maybe it will run as well as 252 on your machine.

Hope this helps

wo0h0o! That's the stuff! :D

Thanks Cat Dude, Semme - that is pretty much exactly what I need!

I don't think I would have ever found that site just searching for luci 252. I might as well "upgrade" and go with the 257 as it does have the devx and seems to be the latest-and-greatest of this series. Can't tell you both how happy this makes me - like "its my birthday" happy! :shock:

Thanks so much for the effort and the results! you guys ROCK!

Thanks!
