@jalefkowit that slogan today would sound great for runs-on-RAM Linux distros like #PuppyLinux!

Using streamripper on #PuppyLinux to record songs from Internet radio a while back. I don't do it so much anymore, I already have all the music I like. #B6

@ai6yr One option for those who don't want to start off by reformatting, is creating a bootable USB version of Puppy Linux.

Goto PuppyLinux.com. You grab an iso and burn it with something like Rufus on Windows to a USB, then boot it and you can either keep running it off USB stick or install it anywhere.

Works on any computer where you can tell the BIOS to boot from USB.

If you do manage to get Snap running on Puppy Linux, Congrats, you passed the hurdle of not wiping root. #linux #puppylinux

#Linux #distros should release boxed versions of their LTS releases. Even if it was a one-off, a boxed copy would be a great #collectible. Especially if you're a smaller distro. I'd buy a #puppylinux #bigbox!

Acho o #PuppyLinux soberbo, ducaráleo, mas não consigo sequer instalar uma versão permanente nos meus cpus.

I am an longtime #puppylinux user. I finally installed #Kubuntu 24 after wiping windows off my 10 year old ideapad, though both Kubuntu and puppylinux use a lot of battery -- so I'm looking for a new or used laptop that plays better both with #lubuntu, #kubuntu and #puppylinux. Any suggestions on the best laptop for home and the road?

Finally copied it all, saved to my own laptop and left with hers for her to copy.

I'm sure others would have an easier way to this, but I felt accomplished that I got it done.

Couldn't find the hardware detection program so turned it off and on again. Hardware detected, searched for driver on that CD.

Not found.

Huh?

Oh.

Copied to hard drive and ran as executable and searched again.

Winner!

I ❤️ love love The Internet Archive!

Tried to copy and nothing would copy. Then realized I was trying to copy on wrong part of the USB drive.

Turned it off.

And remembered the Internet Archive archive.org

Maybe they had older drivers?

Searched and used CTL-F to search for USB mentions in each old Windows98 page I used. Downloaded a few that might have it.

Found one that seemed promising.

Extracted it on my current laptop. Burned it to CD.

Copied from CD to Windows98.

So I tried the wifi dongle to connect to wireless. Probably too old to connect to modern wifi. Got an ethernet cord out. No ethernet port to connect.

Turned it off and on again, hoping Puppy Linux would detect it.

Nope.

Turned it off and on again, hoping Windows98 would detect it.

Yes!

But no driver!

Oh, fiddlesticks.

Maybe I could get a USB 3.5 floppy to USB reader? Or take it to a computer repair place?

Turned it off.
