Download Sites
Download from the Puppy Linux Distro Collection.
Puppy Linux variants since version 2 are hosted at Ibiblio.
Ibiblio also hosts some Puppy Linux specific packages (.pet) as well as squashfs files (.sfs) with kernels, kernel sources, large applications and application frameworks.
The Ibiblio Puppy Linux directory is mirrored by several sites world-wide.
The NLUUG and the UoC mirrors in Europe and the AARNET and the Internode mirrors in Australia are known to update regularly and are usually faster than Ibiblio. UMBC/LUG is a new mirror in the USA.
Mirrors may take up to a day to incorporate changes in Ibiblio.
