I got it to work, in kludge way, after I burned the ISO as
multi-session, then I added a file to it, the file can be anything,
probably as short as possible, and then Puppy will realize that
it is a multi-session disk, and upgrade. You should boot with
something other then the "5" option, because will multi-session
every time after that and isn't there a 24 times limit to
multi-sessioning. However--not having an NTFS OS, I don't know if
Puppy still mangles those or not when it writes to them. I never
had any problem with the VFAT stuff, as I never had with any
other Linux, so writing to a persistent home directory might be
done with some caution. ---Jim
