How to Create a Full Installation on an Internal Device (H.D.D. or S.S.D.)
- Ensure that the target installation partition has sufficient free space available
- Power-off the target computer and connect the LiveDVD/USB
- Power-on the target computer: if the computer does not start/boot from the LiveDVD/USB it will be necessary to either access a boot menu, or the U.E.F.I/B.I.O.S. firmware settings, so that the computer is instructed to boot with the desired optical drive or U.S.B. flash memory drive (and not any internal drive); re-starting will be necessary in conjunction with using the correct key(s) (read Appendix below)
- Configure the keyboard, locale & timezone settings {one is offered to do this either during start-up or immediately after}
- Prepare the internal storage device (H.D.D. or S.S.D.) (optional) via Menu > System > GParted; after any modifications re-start the computer without saving any changes and with the LiveDVD/USB connected
- Install to internal storage device (H.D.D. or S.S.D.) via Menu > System > Puppy Universal Installer
- Remove the LiveDVD/USB and power-off the computer without saving
- Power-on the computer
Appendix
- Verifying available disk space
- Setting the required boot sequence
