Podcast about creating a distro with Puppy Linux
For this distro creation, you will need:
- Puppy2.12 or later
- One blank CD or DVD-R
- Sufficient hard disk for the temp files - I estimate 256MB
- Some web space to upload to
I used the full Puppy2.01 as a start. The Opera Puppy 2.01 would work and Barebones 2.01 might be a smaller starting point - especially if you want to add Firefox

- Setup the system with your preferred software. This is my choice:
Audacity sound editor. Very stable. Also available for Windows. .pup
Xara graphics - 50% complete - very usable. Sadly the enclosed nightly build is unstable (first time) for a stable version try direct from xaralx website
NVU WSIWYG HTML editor. NVU is more powerful than composer on which it is based. Tmxxine has made a commitment to create its documentation in wiki format. This tool is for temporary deployment. - Klh .pup
007 blowfish single file encryption. This only works on single files. It is only two lines of code - Lobster .pup
Java. Widely used, the third most important language after C and C It allows access to java enabled web sites - many scientific sites make use of it. - GuestToo .pup
Extra codecs for viewing movies through the Internet - MU dotpup
Mplayer - be careful with this - crashed my machine from within dotpup menu
VYM - View Your Mind. A Mind mapping thought generation tool - pupget
Tuxcard - organise you bits of information - pupget
Xfce Window manager, Shut down / exit to prompt and then type xwin xfce To return reboot Xfce and then type xwin jwm - forum .pup

- Create or find a free background and modify it (optional)
- Change the JWM theme (optional)
Here is what I did:
This will give blue menus when you reboot
