[Coco] CoCo Linux Live CD

[Diego Barizo]

In Puppy, you have it under the main menu, under system, I believe. Just select the packages you want to keep, unselect the ones you don't, and ready.
Can take as little as 10 minutes.
I haven't done it since version 3.x so it probably has changed a bit since then.
