myDSL Extensions (deprecated) :: Adding myDSL files to the iso

1. First of all, if you are using windows, then I cannot help you. I don't use windows, windows filesystems are not robust as Linux. If you see permission errors then that should give you a clue.

2. boot time options do not start with dsl these are appended to the exisiting system ones, so therefore use something like:

toram dma restore=hda10 mydsl=hda5

3. You do not need to edit isolinux.cfg, that is the whole point of the prompt.

I guess it won't help Windows users. You have to have at least one Linux partition with two directories to hold the image, iso, and extensions.

the goal of my isolinux.cfg editing was to have a french keyboard from start so that i could use henk1955 wonderfull S02dsl-config extension to make my dsl more versatile and to sort extensions...
i think i'll have to stick to clacker's method, as many other windows users out there

Hi !

I use mkmydsl for generated the ISO file with Robert's guide. But ISO file not generated in ISO folder (generated MASTER Only )
My hard disk partition : hdb6 (ext3)

DSL is very good Live OS !

Thanks,

The way i make my costom DSL disks is using ISO buster in windows and poping open the cd and extracting the contents. Then i use a cdburning software, add all of the dsl extensions that i want and use the boot floppy to create the Bootable CD.

Now that has worked for me but, is there any advantages to using the myDSL script other then the ISOBUSTER/CDBURN w/Floppy method?

The advantages are:
1. It does not require Windows.
2. It allows a simple way to have your boot time options on the cd without editing system files, e.g., toram dma restore=hda10
