Of all the Linux distributions available on the internet, Puppy Linux is the quickest to load and still able to provide all the useful components of a standard Linux distribution. I personally use it from time to time when I have to recover files from a messed up Windows installation or just want to access some suspicious sites without the fear of getting my Windows installation infected with unknown malware. But like some other Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu Linux or Mint Linux), it does not provide an easy in-built method to install it in a dual-boot configuration on a Windows PC. While using Puppy Linux from a bootable USB flash disk is no problem at all, you can make it much faster and easier if you install it in the dual boot configuration on your Windows PC.
Here is how: Note: These steps will disable fast-boot in Windows. So your Windows perhaps won’t boot so fast next time. Download latest version of Puppy Linux ISO from. The 64-bit version of Puppy Linux requires your PC to have a 64-bit CPU. You can use to determine if your PC is 64-bit ready.
If confused, just download the 32-bit version of Puppy Linux ISO. Download LICK from and install it in Windows. Launch LICK and then drag-n-drop the downloaded ISO file on the LICK window. You can change the ID, name and install location, but the default values work better for everyone. Just click on the Install button.
In a few seconds, you will see a message confirming that installation was successful. This means that you are ready to dual-boot into Windows or Puppy Linux. Maxim dl pro suite keygen download. Reboot your PC and you will see the boot manager from where you can select either Windows or Puppy Linux. This method works even on newer systems with UEFI and secure boot. In these systems, you will have to take a few extra steps when you boot into Puppy Linux for the first time by selecting Help → Nothing happens on reboot.
But this is only one-time process. After first reboot, you will be able to boot into Windows or Puppy Linux without any problem. Thank you for your reply Trish, unfortunately. Did what you suggested but there’s no entry for Lick bootloader via BCDEDIT, there are only entries for Win Boot Manager and Win Boot Loader. Also, when selecting File- Install/Uninstall Bootloader there is only the option to uninstall the bootloader? If I go ahead and uninstall the bootloader it seems to defeat the purpose? So I had to enter no for that option.
I suspect that something else is going on with my ACER Aspire ES 15 laptop. I’ve previously failed to install Linux Mint dual-boot on it (but have been successful with a Toshiba Satellite laptop and others – no problems at all). Mint fails due to VESA Bios Extensions not detected and when it finally loads will ony do so via graphics software rendering which of course is useless. Anyhow, back to Puppy Linux – if you can think of any other suggestions I’ll be happy to try them, but I have the feeling my ACER Aspire is a piece of junk heade for the bin. Best Regards. LICK bootloader can be removed and then reinstalled from File- Install/Uninstall Bootloader. This will fix any problems with bootloader files and entries.
If the BCDEDIT entry is not showing even after reinstalling, then choose Help- Nothing happens on reboot. This step is risky, so before taking this step make sure you backup your C: partition using Macrium Reflect and create a bootable USB for Macrium Reflect (so if PC becomes unbootable, you can restore C: using pendrive along with backup stored on some other partition).
To do the hard drive installation MacPup needs to be able to see the files. I had the same problem and did the following. In my case, the iso was located on a hard drive partition but should be nearly the same from usb. I extracted the iso files to the same location as the iso file (e.g. To the usb in your case).
In order to allow MacPup installer to see them, add the location to fstab. I used blkid to get the UUID and added a line to fstab to make it show up in the file browser. Leaving the file browser open, point the installer to the partition (or usb) extracted files. This should work to install to hard drive. Did in my case. If not, copy the files to a hard drive partition and point fstab to there. That should do the trick.
If you have grub2 installed already, then do not install grub from MacPup installation. Just update grub2 from wherever you initially installed grub2 from. This will make MacPup accessible from your grub2 menu. Hope this helps!
Advertisement Want to put the OS X installer onto a a? Apple doesn’t provide an official tool to create bootable copies of their operating system, outside the recovery partition, but a third party tool called DiskMaker makes for a relatively painless process. Why would you want to do this?
Lots of reasons, including if:. You plan to replace your Mac’s hard drive, so the restore partition isn’t an option. You’re This 'How to Hackintosh' guide outlines what you need to do in order to build a power PC Hackintosh. This guide shows you the way. You need to install/upgrade OS X on a computer without broadband access. You want a way to install OS X in case of total hard drive failure.
To get this working you will need: a flash drive with at least 8 GB free, a currently operational Mac, and access to broadband Internet. Let’s get started! Step 1: Download Your Chosen Version of OS X The first thing you need to do is download the installer for whatever version of OS X it is you’d like on your flash drive.
1001bit pro download. The only (official) way to do this is using the Mac App Store – I’m personally Mac OS X El Capitan is a subtle release: its biggest changes aren't visible — but you'll probably notice them anyway. You can always find the version of OS X installed on your Mac, and newer versions of OS X, in the App Store by searching. If you’re looking for an older version of OS X, you can find it in the Purchased tab (assuming you’ve downloaded it before). Time Machine Users: Potentially Avoid Re-Downloading Re-downloading OS X might take a long time, especially if the Mac App Store is misbehaving (which, let’s face it, happens a lot). The OS X installer deletes itself after upgrading, which is why you need to re-download the installer to make a thumb drive. But there’s a potential workaround if you As the developer here at MakeUseOf and as someone who earns their entire income from working online, it's fair to say my computer and data are quite important.
They’re set up perfectly for productivity with. You hopefully ran a backup before upgrading your OS, and that backup probably includes the downloaded OS X installer. Check the Purchases tab in the Mac App Store and note the date that you downloaded OS X.
Now head to your Time Machine disk in Finder, and browse to the date you just found – then head to the Applications folder within the backup. You should be able to find the installer, as shown above. Just drag that file to your Applications folder, or anywhere you’d like. Step 2: Install Diskmaker The next step is simple: head to and grab the latest version of DiskMaker.
This free program makes creating a bootable OS X drive simple. Do the usual drag-and-drop-the-icon-dance to install the software. Step 3: Run Diskmaker Now the real magic beings: fire up Diskmaker (if it won’t load, Will your favorite programs ever run again? Certain programs won't load anymore - a message about Unidentified Developers shows up instead.
There isn't even an obvious option to run the app. Gatekeeper just might be.). You should be prompted with a choice: Pick which version of OS X you hope to install from your drive.
You’ll then be prompted to pick your drive. It’s really important that you pick the correct drive, because everything on that drive is going to be deleted – pay attention. Once you’ve gone through all of the steps, DiskMaker will do its thing – eventually it will ask you for your password, so don’t walk away until you’ve done that.
Step 4: Boot From External Drive When your drive is done, booting from it is simple. Power your Mac down, then hold the Option key as you turn it on. You should see a selection of drives: Just pick your drive, and eventually the OS X Installer will open. You can now install OS X, or use any of the utilities that come with the installer. Alternative: Install OS X to an External Drive.
Maybe you don’t want to install OS X from a USB drive, but actually boot the entire operating system from a USB drive. Good news: that’s possible. One of the great things about Macs is that the OS is bootable on any Mac machine, regardless of which computer it was originally installed on. This means that if your desktop breaks, you can. For older version of OS X, but these days, and it’s really simple: just connect an external drive, boot your Mac into recovery mode, then pick your external drive as the installation medium.
Boot Windows or Linux From a USB Key Of course, OS X isn’t the only operating system your Mac can run: you could also get Linux or Windows running on it. We’ve shown you There are a few ways to get a create a live Linux USB drive that will boot on your Mac: you can do it with freeware, or get your hands dirty with the command line., and there are several ways to Want Windows 8 running on your Mac, but don't know where to start? Let us show you how.
Install Macpup From Usb
So if you want something besides OS X and your USB key, you’ve got options. USB Installation is Great I plan on partitioning an external hard drive, with one partition capable of installing OS X and the other holding various software installers.
With that I should be able to recover from a hard drive failure pretty quickly. I want to know what you’ll be using your bootable OS X key for. Let me know, along with any questions you have about the process, in the comments below.

As said above, you can install Puppy to a USB flash drive using Puppy's installer. In this scenario, you would also install a bootloader to your USB drive.
The Puppy installation on the USB would be the same as a Puppy installation on your internal HDD; only difference is the media you install it to. Another, easier option, is to use something like to create a live USB. If using Windows, click on the download link to download it. If using Linux, open a terminal and type 'unetbootin.' If it is already installed it will open; if it is not already installed, follow the instructions that will be provided in the terminal to download and install it. In this scenario, you do not have to install a bootloader.

To create a Puppy USB using Unetbootin: 1) Download your chosen Puppy ISO. 2) With your USB plugged in, open Unetbootin. Your USB should be automatically detected. 3) Press the button I have highlighted below, to select the ISO that you downloaded: 4) Press the OK button. 5) Wait for Unetbootin to finish writing to the USB. I wouldn't use ImgBurn. While it's a marvellous Windows-based 'burner' app for Windows stuff, it has the failing that the majority of such apps have.
It writes all file-names in upper-case letters. It's only for optical discs, too.
Ergo, Puppy won't recognise it, since Linux tends to use all lower-case letters for system-stuff.and it's extremely case-sensitive, too. If you want to put a Linux ISO onto an optical disc, we recommend one tool over on the Puppy Forums above all others. Terabyte Unlimited's 'BurnCDCC'. It's very single-minded; it does one thing, and one thing only.it burns an ISO file to a CD/CVD. And you must burn at the slowest speed possible, too; no more than 2x or 4x, tops. It doesn't seem to suffer from the usual Windows failing of the wrong case. Just d/load it, unzip it anywhere you like, and run the.exe file inside.
That's all there is to it.and I guarantee it will work. For USBs, either UNetbootin or Rufus will do the job.

Yes you can save changes to the Live USB. When you create a live Puppy USB and boot your computer using it, when you come to reboot or shut down for the first time, Puppy will ask if you wish to create a save file or a save directory.
Follow the prompts to create a save file or save directory. With which file format I should format the USB? Fat32 works fine. Text files are saved in the save file / save directory.

Text editings will disappear if there is a power cut, unless you have already saved your edits. Puppy is no different in this respect to other operating systems that do not run from RAM.
Does Puppylinux support.docs? Generally speaking, Windows applications cannot be run on Linux, just as Linux applications cannot be run on Windows. However there are ways to run some Windows applications on Linux, with some functionality. Personally, I would recommend using Windows to run Windows applications.

What is the linux programme with which I can edit.doc documents? (most probably something that I can run on puppylinux flawless) What are some graphically and visually impressive and not so resource hungry games I can play with puppylinux? I've never used Puppy Linux for editing.doc files, or for playing games. I use Libre Office to edit.doc files, but have not used it in Puppy.
Perhaps if you start new topics with relevant titles for these questions, someone who has used Puppy for editing.doc files, or playing games, might be able to help. I suggest continuing to use Windows, to run Windows applications. Another one who wants a free version of Windows. He's all yours, I run Windows 7 on my dell lap and dell desktop and XP on a Samsung desktop. Who asked for a free Windows? Fair comment. You'd be surprised at the number of people we get on here that think Linux is essentially just that; a free version of Windows.
That it will run every single program & app they had on their Windows install, perfectly, without the slightest hiccup. It was never meant to, or intended to. Linux has its own very unique way of dong things, and should be respected as such.

Having said that, you can run Windows stuff in Linux (Pup's as capable of this as any of them. I run several Adobe graphics programs, as well as many smaller apps), using something called WINE. This installs a complete 'Windows environment', which allows Windows stuff to run natively, in real time. But it's a very imperfect process; a new version of WINE can break things that worked in a previous version.so that's one thing you need to be aware of. I run a very old version of WORD (from the Office 2000 suite).
I don't bother with the rest of the suite, just that one. Distros:- Multiple 'Puppies'.

I will have to try this following your instructions. I followed the prompts in Puppy a couple of versions back, but it did not work. I just click on the file I download from Puppy and an ISO burning program opens without using 3rd party software. I have used Puppy for more than a year when I want to go onto the Internet, but do not want to buy anti-virus software. With each new version I notice I can go almost anywhere on the web and it is fast, but as time goes by certain sites will no longer open or function and my speed slows.
Sometimes switching to a different browser in Puppy helps. Sometimes running Chkdsk and Disk Defragmenter in Windows helps.
Have you had any experience with this problem?
