Success ! A booting USB stick Good news, How would you rate the difficulty of this script? Intermediate? I did not understand where to put the "rootwait" command as I could not find an options box? Actually I found this now where "ro" appears on the first GUI page. I assume you ...

I think you can just scratch $choose at all you don't need it

as in

Code: Select all

# $choose
ret=$?
[[ $ret -eq 1 ]] && exit 0
[[ $ret -eq 2 ]] && startinfn
BTW How do you get ret value 2 there?
Its from selectfn()

$choose is defined in 'buildnetworkselectorfn', Then I have simply stated the variable and that is the entire gui, a bit like 'export gtkdialog'. Actually I was surprised when it worked! buildnetworkselectorfn () { cat /tmp/scansr2 | tr '\n' ' ' >> /tmp/scansr3 sed -i 's|^|choose=$(yad --window-ico...

scsijon, I am not sure if Scooby wants to work on or improve this script. Lets see what he says about your request. Problem is "improvement" does not carry the same meaning for you and me. As for free space checking I will not work on adding it. Anyone else wanting to do so are free to do...

read more about ARP spoofing

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARP_spoofing


quote from that URL
ARP spoofing attacks can be run from a compromised host on the LAN, or
from an attacker's machine that is connected directly to the target
LAN.
Doesn't seem to be posssibel to attack from internet?

Re: Personally, i find Puppy self sufficient as it is,

Full install of a mini distro ? it's the complete opposite of Puppy philosophy (Do'nt touch anything to your computer, puppy is as the wind, once the job done, it disappear without any trace) But let ideas go their own way..

Re: Nasty Flaw found in Lhasa LZH/LHA decompression tool

OK But what is required to be vulnerable? I for one do not have the lhasa tool installed? Is it common in most puppies? Noga reckons the first thing bad guys would do with this flaw is put something horrid in a compressed file in the hope you open it and end up with something nasty on your machine....

be careful when you boot and drive letter has changed.

if comp now detects it as sdc1

it may still say in menu.lst

kernel root=/dev/sdd1


anyway you forgot to run Grub4DosConfig

there is no grldr and menu.lst in screen shot

Here is a version of the script that is working for me: puppy_full_installer It works both with legacy support and without (running with -n parameter). It uses unsquashfs instead of loop mount & cp. I don't know if that is a problem. Is unsquashfs present on most puppies? If you run into trouble...
