Puppy Linux Usb Windows
The installation of Puppy Linux on a machine without a CD ROM or USB?
I want to install Puppy Linux on an old machine (PIII 500MHz, 128MB RAM). This machine is not working CD-ROM, floppy drives work. USB boot is not supported by the boot manager BIOS.plop is also not working for it. There is some possibility harddisk to install Linux directly from within Windows (as it is for Wubi Ubuntu)
Part of the educational process with computers is the time to learn and solve problems. I am pleased to see that the attempt to recycle computer hardware. The operating system puppy as a surprise to many people who have lived alone operating systems Microsoft. There are some computer users who have no idea there are 600 + different desktop operating systems. Running Windows Software on a Microsoft operating system with the wine in a large number of Linux desktop operating system also comes as a surprise. UNetbootin could be a solution you can use. If it is a desktop computer, then replace the CD-ROM with the substitution $ 5 eBay, or one from your local computer repair shop (around the phone to the store, rather than burning your trip to gasoline) ... Memory is easy to find and add to both desktop and mobile ... I have a desktop system 700Mhz with 384 of 133 of dual boot Antix, and a 32-bit version of Mepis 7 ... Puppy should ruining good in setup memory 128 ... But I would find a way to replace your CD-Rom, which would make life easier in the long Run ... If this is a laptop / Notebook then you could remove the hard drive using an IDE adapter $ 5 for the desktop, partition and install the operating system and replace the hard disk on the laptop / Notebook and running. Or you could put the ISO on your hard drive and use the instructions found in the link I provided. Puppy also has a floppy wake up, which will be installed from the hard disk, floppy boot helps you find the ISO placed on your hard drive ... Quote, "WakePup boot from floppy ... Most PCs support booting from a floppy drive. If not already configured, it is to invoke the BIOS when the PC first powers-up. Very often this is done by pressing the Delete key, but some computers require a function key to be pressed, such as F2. Then, what is called the "boot order" can be configured, and usually a CD-ROM Disc drive then, or you can include a USB drive or floppy boot sequence control. Puppy has something special, called WakePup, developed by Puppy enthusiast pakt (name forum) - look in the menu "Setting" and you will see an entry for "WakePup create boot floppy". This will create a floppy disk that your PC can start from. The floppy disk WakePup scans your PC and find Puppy on a USB drive, hard disk, or CD / DVD. Note, however, because it is a DOS-based system can only WakePup recognized ISO9660 and FAT filesystems. CDs use the ISO9660 filesystem for holding files, so that is good. USB pen drive are usually formatted with the FAT16 file system, so that is also good. MS-DOS and Windows 95/98 installations are in hard drive partitions with FAT file system, then back to the place. Puppy installed WakePup recognize an NTFS file system (Windows XP) hard disk partition, but this is currently experimental. WakePup not recognize Puppy in a Linux partition. JR
