[SOLVED] Puppy universal installer: SANITY CHECK -- partition cannot be unmounted!

gray53 · 07-28-2009, 09:33 AM

I'm going to go ahead with the install. Is there any case in which I would need to mount a partition?

I'm using Puppy 4.2.1

?

are you using the installer?

frugal install or full hd install??

you can do frugal by "hand"

how many puppies you gonna put there?

gray53 · 07-29-2009, 07:27 PM

full install w/ one puppy

linus72 · 07-29-2009, 07:39 PM

well
yeah, it should auto-mount it?

is there anything in the partiion now?

if not run with the installer

what are you worried about?

gray53 · 07-29-2009, 07:41 PM

Yeah, never mind. I'm just going to wait until the RAM I ordered comes in the mail. Thanks tho!

linus72 · 07-29-2009, 07:42 PM

RAM?

how much does it have??

gray53 · 07-29-2009, 07:50 PM

64 MB
I might try barebones pup

linus72 · 07-29-2009, 07:53 PM

eeech

how much ram you gonna get?

DSL hd install will run quick there

gray53 · 07-29-2009, 07:55 PM

Dad ordered it. Probably 128MB or more.

gray53 · 07-29-2009, 07:58 PM

Hey, Linus72, would you recommend DSL or Barebones Pup for a newbie? Barebones is a 57 MB iso.

linus72 · 07-29-2009, 08:04 PM

Bad thing about barebones is no browser etc

browserlinux (was browserpuppy) 64mb
is best "light" puppy I've used

pupflux-421 is nice too

I got like 7 pups right now on my 2gb fat32 usb
PupPack!

uh...you already have browserpuppy don't you?

bad thing about DSL is it's Dead
and it's not made for hd install
but runs better/faster that way

Tinycore is the new DSL, same people
tinycore needs 48mb to boot

so, you could have a desktop, maybe dillo2 browser

get more ram
