Special Information

Puppy Arcade can play retro games. Lots of them. It's a live CD - simply download, burn and boot!

Puppy Arcade features lots of emulators, custom emulation tools, easy system setup, a BIOS installer and frontend downloaders and a great all-in-one, cabinet-friendly, multi-emulator rom-loader, which supports fullscreen and joypad navigation.

Create a temporary folder:

mkdir /tftpboot/temp
cd /tftpboot/temp/

Copy initrd.gz from mounted CD to temporary folder:

cp /mnt/cdrom/initrd.gz /tftpboot/temp/

Extract and remove intird.gz file:

zcat /tftpboot/temp/initrd.gz | cpio -i -H newc -d
rm initrd.gz

Copy SFS file from mounted CD to temporary folder (LOWER CASE ONLY!!!):

cp /mnt/cdrom/pup_420.sfs /tftpboot/temp/pup_420.sfs

Repack the new initrd.gz file:

find | cpio -o -H newc | gzip -4 > /tftpboot/er/plugins/puppy/arcade/initrd.gz
