A simple remaster tool for Puppy Linux.
![]() ![]()
Precise Puppy 5.4. Precise Puppy is built from Ubuntu Precise Pangolin 12.04.1+ binary DEB packages, hence has binary compatibility with Ubuntu and access to the vast Ubuntu package repository. Couple that with Puppy's tiny size, speed and ease-of-use, and this is one incredible pup! This is the very first release of Precise Puppy.

This will build the PET package for you.
System Requirements
You need a Puppy Linux ISO file to remaster, any version since 2009 should do.
You can use Woofy on any Puppy Linux, full install or frugal, save file or no save file.If you have a Linux partition, or a large save file (400mb+ free space), you do not even need much RAM.
The only real requirement is that you have enough space in your chosen working directory(which could be your RAM, a save file, or a mounted linux partition)
'Enough space' means 3 or 4 times more than your ISO file size.
If remastering a Puppy ISO with a different SFS version than the one running Woofy,you must have both mksquashfs3 and mksquashfs4 installed to remaster successfully.

The community software package for Puppy Linux.
Debian[edit]
Puppy can install Debian packages with some tweaking. As these packages are made for other linux distributions and not puppy specifically, some install and function directly and well, but others may not work due to dependencies (system files) that the package maker assumes will be on your system, are not, due to the 'cut down' nature of the Puppy system. These dependencies need to be installed separately.
Slackware[edit]
Puppy Linux 3 had Slackware package compatibility.
