![]() It has been said that the best experience of Puppy Linux is not from the software itself, but from the community that gathers around it. Mirrors may take up to a day to incorporate changes in Ibiblio. The NLUUG and the UoC mirrors in Europe and the AARNET and the Internode mirrors in Australia are known to update regularly and are usually faster than Ibiblio. The Ibiblio puppylinux directory is mirrored by several sites world-wide. Ibiblio also hosts the puppy specific packages (pet) used to build puppies as well as squashfs files (sfs) with kernels, kernel sources, large applications and application frameworks. Download SitesĪll the “official” Puppies since version 2 are hosted at Ibiblio. The choice of a binary compatible distribution determines the availability of additional packages, among other things. * Compatibility: A Puppylinux distribution can also be built and assembled using packages and components from another Linux distribution called in Puppy the “binary compatible” distribution. Official Pup build recipes are kept at Woof-CE on GITHUB. Get the ISO, burn it to a CD/DVD using your favorite CD/DVD burner, or flash it using dd ( Windows version) to your USB flash drive, or visit our download page for more comprehensive information.

(Official distributions) Unofficial derivatives ( “puplets”) → are usually remasters (or remasters of remasters), made and maintained by Puppy Linux enthusiasts, usually targeted for specific purposes. Woof-built Puppy Linux distributions → developed to suit specific needs and appearances, also targeted for general purpose, and built using Puppy Linux system builder (called Woof-CE) with some additional or modified packages. Official Puppy Linux distributions → maintained by Puppy Linux team, usually targeted for general purpose, and generally built using Puppy Linux system builder (called Woof-CE). There are generally three broad categories of Puppy Linux distributions: Puppy Linux is a collection of multiple Linux distributions, built on the same shared principles, built using the same set of tools, built on top of a unique set of puppy specific applications and configurations and generally speaking provide consistent behaviours and features, no matter which flavours you choose. Puppy Linux is also not a Linux distribution with multiple flavours, like Ubuntu (with its variants of Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc) though it also comes in flavours. Puppy Linux is not a single Linux distribution like Debian. Yes, but what does it look and feel like? If one of these things interest you, read on. Variety → hundreds of derivatives (“puplets”), one of which will surely meet your needs.Different flavours → optimised to support older computers, newer computers. ![]()
