Dear Andreas,
Thank you for all your suggestions & the useful infos. I dont have any idea about "why not Debian Live". But I have few positive points here about "Why in Puppy Linux". Early my motivation was, they [bioinfo novice people] want to use the Linux and open source. There are more than thousands of Linux are available here. But unfortunately, very few only accepted by end users. We have different types of advantages & drawbacks in every Linux. But from the novice end user's point of view, they have only one expectation. That is user friendly. I found Puppy Linux is the one, the novice people are easily work without any fear.
Ofcourse, Now I need to concentrate on packages, update, repositories, etc. I am sure, I will go through the Debian Live.

Surely, I will get back to you, once I need help in this issue.
Thank you for your encouragement.
