User Feedback :: DSL 0.8.0 issues



Quote
I also no longer get the error only one processor found message any more.

I thought that was a joke.... ???
has anyone other than me had network problems?

or cd drives that won't boot the cd?

EDIT: Did some research, and isolinux 2.04 has a reputation for not bein.g compatible with many cd drives.

just google "isolinux 2.04" and see what i mean.

Two computers here.  One boots DSL 0.8 fine.  The other one, my dsl box since 0.7, says it can't find KNOPPIX.
well, of the 22 computers that I manage, 9 will not boot 0.8, and another 2 have hardware that worked in 0.6.x+ but doesn't work now.

maybe tomorrow i'll get together a list of the drivers that were used in 0.7.x and figure something out.

Also, has anybody else tried putting *.dsls in the ISO image before burning with 0.8 ?

No problem when using the included mkmydsl script. I am running a custom myDSL cdrom with dsl-aterm, abiword, and striking theme all in the root of the cdrom, in optional I have openoffice.uci and a bunch of others.


This only works if you DO NOT use the "toram" option...
If using toram, only the root apps get loaded..

I put dsl-dpkg.dsl and gnu-utils.dsl in the root of the CD ,
I put several dozen apps in a directory called "optional"

If I do not run toram,
I have a "mydsl" entry in my menu, and all my apps are
available from the menu which are in the /optional directory ...

If I run toram,
I ( do )  have a "mydsl" entry in my menu, not an "optional" link
all of my apps in /optional are only available thru myDSLgui or emelfm...

This is an issue with the way knoppix 3.4 has changed the toram function.
There is nothing wrong with your set...
Your can get to your apps by adding the line "/cdrom" at the bottom of your
myDSLgui screen, or thru emelfm...

EDIT - correction - If I run with toram, I have a mydsl-menu with root apps in it.
I no longer have the optional link in mydsl-menu...  thanks roberts
