See here, where it says:
Hard Link Created with plain ln Points at the actual data. Can be moved and will point at the original data. Must be on the same partition as the target data. Is neither absolute nor relative - simply is. Has no arrow emblem over the icon. Absolute Symbolic Link Created with ln -s Points at a filename, not at the actual data in question. Uses an absolute path to the destination, starting from / Can be moved and will point at the original target if that did not move. Can point across partitions. Has an arrow emblem over the icon. Relative Symbolic Link Created with ln -s Points at a filename, not at the actual data in question. Uses a relative path to the destination, starting from wherever it is located. If moved, it will generally not point at the original item unless the original item was also moved so that the relative path between them stayed the same. Can point across partitions. Has an arrow emblem over the icon."

Oh yeah,
I realized that my laptop has an SD slot. Can I get puppy to boot from SD and run entirely from this card? 8GB card is cheap right now and that would be a sweet way to dual boot a system, just pop in/out the card.

1. "Can I get puppy to boot from SD and run entirely from this card?"
I expect so. Surely the SD card will be treated as just another storage location. Remember that you can write protect an SD card to make it read-only, in which state it could NOT be infected. (a) You could either boot a Puppy from a live optical disk, and at 1st shut-down make a pupsave file on the SD card, or else... (b) Use the running Puppy session, and the live Puppy disk, to Install the Puppy to the SD card, and install GRUB either to a floppy, or to the MBR on the internal HDD. (c) Start a new thread on the Puppy Linux forum for instructions from the Puppy experts. (d) Or use the link in post #179 above to view the existing thread on the topic. 2. "how do you set the clock? I think my bios clock is off like 20 years" (a) Use "Menu->Desktop->Set timezone" to set your zone [NOT to GMT+/-, but instead] to the geographic region [like Europe/London]. (b) Then manually use "Menu->Desktop->Set date and time". (c) Then, if Psync is not installed, install it by clicking this link to go to the thread offering this download for Psync-1.0.pet [the latest version at this time]. The links to this can be seen HERE at post #117 of this thread. Once installed you can use Psync to synchronize your clock to the milli-second. I configured my clock to display a 24-hour clock with hours:minutes:seconds.
