I have for had a lot of success running various XAMPP installs under Puppy Linux 5.2.5 and 5.2.8 as development platforms. Messing around I configured a Frugal install of Lupu 5.2.8 to run the FTP and MYSQL servers from the XAMPP setup and version 8.8 Hiawatha server. So far I have a WordPress and Oscommerce 2.3.3 install running nicely.
I need help with the Hiawatha ToolKit re--write rules to get a Gallery 3 install or Shutter running. Any words of advice?
