Maybe the problem is with the CD writer ...

Are you able to boot the laptop with Puppy CD? maybe unetbootin could help ...

Yep, Puppy ran from a burned disk first and then I put it on a 4 gig usb thumb drive and formated the thumb drive to "ext3" I believe it was, but the darn puter still won't save a "session file" . When it logs off it gives a "kernal panic" error no matter what choice I have made about saving the file or not saving the file.......
It runs from an old Ubuntu live cd we have too. I don't know if that old one has an install option, and you just inspired me to look.... so .... off we go again
Thank you for trying to help! All of you! I'll go look at unetbootin too.
Best,
Randy
