Just thought I'd let you know about this updated fork of Puppy Linux 4.12 which is a DIY build as you go distro which is ideal for old machines and is very fast. It is Significantly updated.
So if you have an old machine in the shed or you use something really ram challenged by todays ram hungry distros then this may be for you it follows the kitset model of building your system
Great enjoy please to all anitaos iso's are barebones booting to a desktop but a browser and programs to be added - instructions at the website in first post this distro is like putting together lego in that it is building your own system up from a base
Yes it should because I run on a really anchient Compaq Armada E500 which has a floppy and a floppy icon appeared. Love that machine to bits.

Thanks darry1966. My ancient rigs still see service in the motorcycle shop. Customers play dosbox based games and ThinkTanksDemo on those old kits.
Appreciate your efforts here in the deserts of Texas.

Version 3 released 2017 available for download. Based on Puppy 4.3.1. Successfull in spite of old fashioned. Unfortunateley Puppy 4.3.1 is the only version refusing to run on my laptop. Older 420, 412 boot without trouble..
FFconvert is efficient, but will not do all what Avidemux can do. And Avidemux will not do all what FFConvert can do. But Avidemus will be easily installed if you need it.
