Flash is pre-installed to have a 'just-works' environment.

Latest stable version: http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_7_linux.tar.gz

Installation:

tar zxvf install_flash_player-7.0.61-linux.tar.gz                                                                   
cd install_flash_player_7_linux
./flashplayer-installer
/usr/lib/firefox/

Packaging for Puppy:

DotPup used instead of PupGet since both neither can use script-based functionality with PCCC & DotPups are more easily added to a live system (can simply double-click in ROX)

dotpup.sh:

#!/bin/bash
#
# unzip the files using absolute paths
tar -xzpvP --no-same-owner -f flash-7.0.61.tar.gz

# Register with PupGet as an alien package
echo '"flash-7.0.61" "flash-7.0.61" on "GTK1APPS 975K" \' >> /root/.packages/alienpackages.txt
echo "flash-7.0.61" > /root/.packages/flash-7.0.61.keyword
mv /tmp/flash-7.0.61.files /root/.packages/flash-7.0.61.files
