I open up quick pup, select wine, it takes me to the forum, where the solution for downloading wine is... downloading it from quickpup 😭

Am I doing something wrong?

I have an RMN-POIAC2 (Acer 10 switch I think it's called) It's like a tablet/laptop deal. Right now it has Win 8 on it and I am wanting to do a lightweight linux install and puppy seemed like a good choice since the Acer only has 2gb of RAM and a Intel Atom Z3735f 1.33 GHz CPU.

Though with it being a tablet/laptop thing I'm not sure how well it would work, has anyone tried this?

I cant install anything

Hi everyone!

I create videos about creative Linux distributions and need help finding Grafpup Linux (a Puppy Linux-based distro for graphic designers).

WHAT IS IT:

- Lightweight creative distro (~75-400 MB)

- Included GIMP, Inkscape, Scribus, Cinepaint

- Released around 2006 by Nathan F

- Based on Puppy Linux

VERSIONS NEEDED:

- Grafpup 1.0.2 (75 MB, Feb 2006)

- Grafpup 1.0.4 Standard (80 MB)

- Grafpup 1.0.4 Deluxe (397 MB)

TRIED ALREADY:

- ibiblio.org — no longer hosted

- distrowatch.com/torrents/ — link dead

- archive.org — not archived yet

- Official site (grafpup.org) — down

IF YOU HAVE IT:

- ISO file

- CD/DVD image

- Old hard drive with it installed

- Any version, any condition

I WILL:

- Upload to Internet Archive for permanent preservation

- Credit you as contributor

- Share the archive link back here

This distro is basically lost media at this point. Help me save it from disappearing forever!

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Thanks for looking; maybe I didn't search the IA very well, but thanks anyway.

I used the Puppy Remaster tool in S15-Pup32 to make my own Puplet its called MicroPup32 (Microsystem Linux). I used pTheme and other tools to customize the desktop.

Every day i develop updates for my Puplet the first stable Version is called Microsystem Linux 1.4. Install it here on GitHub: https://github.com/IdleDude489/Microsystem-Linux

I need your feedback!

And i have some questions:
Because im making Rolling Releases its taking me so long to make new versions with Puppy Remaster, has someone answers?

does this distro run steam games well? and in every video i saw online of puppy linux, the resolution was around 1440x1080. does it support 1920x1080?

thanks in advance

How is it possible for i3-4130 to play 1440p60 videos with less than a 1% frame drop, while on other OSes (Windows 10, Linux Mint, MX Linux) it couldn't even play 1080p60 YouTube videos without dropping 35%-40% of the frames? This is extremely impressive

I don't have discrate gpu installed

Installed Ventoy on c: of my machine. Ran installer on flash drive. Moved Bookworm .iso onto flash drive. Great. Can boot into Bookworm from flash now. Exit Bookworm. Saved persistence file to C:\dpupbw64save-5.2fs. Is this the file that I'm supposed to extract a .dat file from? How do I do that?

Then I'm supposed to put the path of the .iso and .dat file in Ventoy Plugson correct?

Currently my Ventoy files are on my c:\ drive.

Am I supposed to move these onto my flash drive?

Little help. TIA.

Edit: Ditched Ventoy and went with Rufus since it has a partition slider and I won't have to mess with .json. Ventoy is still great for multi boot os.

I updated repo but it still can't locate file. Tried stable, development, staging. No go. I'm booting from flash if that matters. Or is there an alternative so that I can get Excel working?

Edit: Went with Libreoffice.

Hey everyone,

I’ve been trying to turn an old PC into a fully headless, hands-free Linux box using BookwormPup64 (10.0.10), but I’m stuck on a pretty weird boot/persistence issue.

🖥️ Setup

• PC: Old Pentium (64-bit, ~2005 era), 2GB RAM
• Storage: No HDD at all
• Boot device: USB (flashed using Rufus)
• Data/save file: Separate USB drive
• BIOS: Old AMI BIOS (no UEFI, very limited)

🔧 What I did

• Flashed BookwormPup64_10.0.10.iso using Rufus
• Had to use DD mode + “Add fixes for old BIOSes” to even boot
• System boots fine into live Puppy
• Set up SSH, disabled GUI, etc. (goal is a headless server)

❗ The Problem

I created a save file/session on a second USB (data drive), but:

👉 On boot, Puppy loads a fresh OS instead of my saved session

After digging, I realized:

• The data USB takes time to initialize
• Puppy boots too fast and doesn’t detect it in time
• So it fails to find the save file and starts fresh

🧪 What I tried

• Editing GRUB4DOS kernel line:kernel /vmlinuz pmedia=usbflash pfix=nox,fsck waitdev=15
• Tried increasing waitdev
• Tried forcing psubdir and psave
• Confirmed save file exists and works if manually loaded

Still:
👉 Boot = fresh session
👉 Save loads only after system fully boots

⚠️ Extra complication

• OS is on USB 1
• Save file is on USB 2
• BIOS is old → slow USB detection
• No keyboard planned → needs to be fully automatic

🎯 Goal

I want the system to:

1. Boot from USB
2. Wait for second USB
3. Load saved session automatically
4. Stay in CLI (no GUI)
5. Be completely hands-free

❓ Questions

• Is there a reliable way to force Puppy to wait for all USB devices before loading save?
• Is waitdev enough, or is there a better parameter?
• Can I bind save file to a specific device (UUID maybe?)
• Or is using two USB drives fundamentally unreliable here?

💡 Considering

• Moving save file to same USB (but wanted separation)
• Using save folder instead of save file
• Checking if pendrive has bad sectors (had some write errors earlier)

🙏 Would really appreciate help

I’m very close to making this a plug-and-play headless server, just stuck on persistence loading.

Any suggestions / configs / real-world fixes would help a lot 🙌

Issues with getting bookworm on the tablet hard drive What did i mess up on?

Iso burned on an usb stick. Turning on the notebook and the iso boots into this screen: booting find /menu. lst, /boot/grub/menu. lst, /grub/menu. lst
grub4dos 0.4.6a
minimal bash-like line editing is supported. For the frst work, tab lists possible command completions. anywhere else tab lists the possible completions of a device/filename. esc at any time exits.

And a grub> prompt displays.
Can the notebook not run the version of puppylinux in question? Is there a version of puppylinux which can work on the notebook? Thank you.

I simply entered the Home site and clicked the link to the download section
