HD Install :: How to install DSL on a 85MB Hard Disk

Hello,

I try to install DSL 3.0.1 to my old 85MB Hard Disk.

The install routine says it need 200MB on the HD to install, but why need a 50MB System 200MB of hard disk place?

Is there any way to install DSL on this HD?
At the moment I have a DSL 3.0.1 Live-CD.
If I need an other image please post a link.

I tryed also the boot option dsl tohd=\dev\hda1 so i copy the CD on the HD but how can I write the mbr to boot DSL from the HD?

Greetings error42

Use one of the frugal installation scripts - it will also set up your bootloader for you.

OK now it works, but i have problems with the my serial mouse.

Another Question: Now i have a live-system on the HD, ist there any way to save the settings?

Run xsetup and choose the serial port that the mouse is on.

See backup/restore - did you look through the Local Startup Documentation that pops up under dillo?

There is nothing that pops up wenn i run DSL on this Machine, mayby I shoud bood the CD on a other PC. At the moment I can't do anything, it starts and nothing else, the only thing is press ctrl-alt-del to kill the grafic-interface.
