Puppy Linux 4.1.2发布

        是的，Puppy Linux是另外一种Linux发行。它的不同之处在于，Puppy是格外的小，然而又充满了特性。Puppy能从64M的存储设备启动，并且，整套系统都能在内存中运行。有很多自启动运行光盘的Linux发行，它们需要不停地从光盘读取数据才能运行，Puppy与它们不一样，Puppy整个装载在内存中。这意味着，所有的应用程序一眨眼的功夫就能启动，并且立即对用户的输入作出响应。Puppy Linux能从flash卡或者是任何的USB存储设备启动（这是flash-Puppy），或者光盘（这是live-Puppy），或者Zip disk及LS/120/240 Superdisk（这是zippy-Puppy），或者软盘（这是floppy-Puppy），或者硬盘（这是hard-Puppy）。它甚至可以使用一张多区段烧录的CD-R/DVD-R以将所有内容保存回CD/DVD中。

        Barry Kauler has announced the release of Puppy Linux 4.1.2, the latest update to the 4.1 series of the popular mini-distribution: "Puppy 4.1.2 released. Puppy 4.1.2 is a bug-fix release for 4.1 and 4.1.1. In summary, I fixed a bug when looking for USB drives at boot-up, ohci-hcd USB driver was not loading in the initial ramdisk so some interfaces were not working at that stage, bug fix for .deb package extraction, /tmp/version clean-up fix at version upgrade, Pmetatagger bug fix, some modem detection improvements, tweak for network connection at boot-up, can now load 3 SFS files, fixed a Pmount crash, prevented invalid RAM-save-interval, fixed recognition of PCMCIA in the initrd."
