Fatdog64-810 Final Release Notes
Fatdog64-810 Final was released on 20 January 2020.
Fatdog64-810 GNU/Linux is the fourth release of Fatdog64 800 series, which is based on LFS 8.2/CLFS 2017.07.
This is a maintenance release. Main reason for the update is Intel ZombieLoad/DMS security flaws requiring kernel update and microcode update, which are included in this update.

Minimum requirements: 64-bit x86-64/AMD64 CPU and 1GB RAM. Most Intel and AMD CPUs produced after 2008 support 64-bit (including many Intel Atoms).

Use the frugal install method of booting from the USB flash drive and  keeping the changes and file saved back on to that same USB flash drive.   This method creates a persistant file folder, that holds your changes for use in the next boot.

UEFI. Partition, Windows 8 install notes

super-grub2-disk website. Look for file supergrub2_x86-64.EFI.

Copy file to the EFI fat32 boot partition among the other UEFI boot files.  Use this supergrub2_x86-64.EFI boot file to help select / manage which partition you wish to boot when grub is borked.  Supergrub2 will search and display all the bootable partition/files and give you the choice to select which one to boot.

I like the Fatdog64 810 release for GParted app to partition a SSD or a hard drive, and I like LibreOffice 6.1.2 app for ability to export PDF files from a document file. Last, the ability
to import pictures from smart phone using MTP media Transport Protocol to my puppylinux usb flash drive.  All very fast execution.  This Fatdog64 810 release is a great tool to carry around on a USB flash drive in your pants pockets for when a friends computer has problems.
