I looked at puppy and I liked the idea. The "puppy unleashed" version with gcc and make isn't available yet, so I can't speak to the final functionality, but I thought the idea was sound, especially for remastering. You can tweak and adjust everything just the way you want it, then save. What's easier than shutting down and having the system save everything for you on the same disk you started with? I love the dsl files we have for easy instalation, but it would be so sweat to be able to compile my own and then save the system the way I had it running rather than making dsl files.
the issues I see are:
1) because you're writing new tracks, you never really erase, you add a new copy of the changed files. That's got to build up after a while.
2) because you never really erase, how can you remove things from a remaster to save space?
3) the lack of packages like dsl has makes installing programs more difficult under puppy. without gcc you can't even compile your own (yet).
4) if you copy a multitrack data cd, does it put everything onto one track and remove duplicates?
