Re: Which Puppy Linux for a beginner?
Hello twigboy I have a sneaking suspicion that you do not have SWAP partition or a SWAPFILE allocated on your system drive. This is a major problem for your PC and the distros or Windows that you use on it. (Windows uses a paging file/device). If you allocate either file/partition, your lockups will...

Re: The only condition I can find where Ventoy will *NOT* boot EasyOS
P.S. Does EAsyOS have a "key" and is it registered in the UEFI? Seems IIRC, this is a feature of booting EasyOS on UEFI-SecureBoot PCs.
If so, I dont remember where the instructions are kept.
My memory of this could be wrong.

Report this to Ventoy AND THEY WILL FIX. They have a 'long' past where they address issues that distros report.

Re: Just-Lighthouse64-805/900
Just a comment: This new v900 is different from the old v900 (otherwise it would not have been presented to us). But, it still has the same name as the old. Would it be prudent, in the future to name updates with a updated version number? Reason: Some of us keep all ISO files in a single folder on ...
