PuppEX (Puppy Linux) Noble64 - compatible with Ubuntu 24.04 - with LXDE as DE :: Build 241002

NEWS ABOUT PuppEX Noble64 24.04 241002
This Puppy derivative is a simple remaster of Noblepup64 24.08, which was released 240906 by “peebee”. It is built from Ubuntu 24.04 packages and packages built from woof-CE Recipes. Noblepup64 is one of the the best Puppy Linux systems I’ve ever tried so I decided to make it even better. My small changes of the original system:
1. I’ve replaced the original Puppy Linux Desktop with LXDE (DE for All), which I find more useful.
2. I’ve added some essential packages. Among them Samba so you can connect to your Windows computers in your home Network.
The ISO size has therefore increased from 990 MB to 1020 MB, but PuppEX runs nevertheless as fast as the original Puppy, which means that it runs very very fast! (Puppy Linux/PuppEX runs from RAM).
3. I’ve installed VirtualBox Guest Additions, which means that you can run this PuppEX version in full screen in VirtualBox.
4. Some cosmetic changes. I.e. new wallpapers and icons.

COMPATIBLE WITH Ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Noblepup64.24.08/PuppEX Noble64 is compatible with Ubuntu 24.04 ("Noble Numbat"), which means that Ubuntu packages for Ubuntu 24.04 can be installed and used in PuppEX. You can use the Synaptic Package Manager or the apt command. (apt update, apt upgrade, apt install MyUsefulPackage etc).
IMPORTANT NOTE: The normal remasterpup2 script (which is included in all Puppy Linux versions) doesn’t work in Noblepup64 24.08. I had to use my “special remaster tricks” to be able to build PuppEX Noble64. The remasterpup2 script works very well in PuppEX Bookworm64 though. It works very well in PuppEX Slack64 15.0 too.
NOTE: Noblepup64.24.08/PuppEX Noble64 uses the original Ubuntu 24.04 repositories. Ubuntu 24.04 will be supported until April 2029…
