HD Install :: cd-rw

i guess, would be cool for such things to be possible even if not practical or long lasting.

Lately, I have been burning custom bootable DSL - DVD-RW's .
Seems to boot just like a CD does, and gives me lots of room for
the extensions, my personal files, larger games, mp3's , mpg's, etc..

Upgrading is easy, and the mkmydsl creates a nice .iso to burn from easily.

DSL's Latest Version = 50MB

The repository = 900+MB

Additional extensions = 200+MB
( Myfonts.dsl , Mythemes.dsl , Myprinter.dsl , Mywine.dsl )

Games ( most are mountable .uci files ) = 1.2GB
( additional files for Visual Gameboy, snes, etc.. )

MP3's and MPG's = 1GB

Whenever another version of DSL is released,
I replace the DSL in my "master", and run mkmydsl again.
Then erase and reburn the DVD.

I have also done this with DVD-R's , cause my laptop doesn't like RW's.
