That's the right kernel version for Quirky 1.4. Run:

Code: Select all

depmod -a
modprobe e100

Tried this,

depmod -a
didn't give any error messages so seemed to have worked.
modprobe e100 failed saying unable to find module.

Is your CD burnt from the original Quirky 1.4 ISO?

I just made a Quirky 1.4 flash drive and the e100 module was there.

I think so but it has been a long time. How can this be verified ? Also, how can I verify that the e100 modules are in the CD and also in the flash drive ?

Look in the folder /lib/modules/2.6.31.14/kernel/drivers/net for the file e100.ko

When I load regular, the dir net and e100.ko are there. However, when I load puppy from USB, then entire net dir is missing. I created one and then tried to copy the e100.ko file, then tried modprobe e100, didn't help.

It appears that this can be a remastered CD as the background is a nice scenary. Wonder how come there is so much change due to remastering.

zq140014.sfs is only 1.5MB approx. on USB however, in live cd it is more like 32MB. Trying to copy it failed.

The real Quirky 1.4 does not have this file. The original version is here.

I got the original file, md5sum was verified to be ok. Then mounted it and copied all files to the USB drive. However, when I try to boot from USB, it says OS not found.

I burned a new CD, booted of it and then installed puppy fresh to USB drive. Now, it works fine. Thanks. :)
