HD Install :: Frugal Explanation
Hi!
Depends on the size of the MyDSL programs you would like to install...
I have a partition of about 250 MB for the persistent /home and /opt and installed xampp (takes some space
) and few smaller MyDSL apps. I still have some 120 MB free space.
Greetings!

Thanks for the response, I set about installing dsl on an amd 3000+ processor. I used cfdisk to create a primary partition of 65 mb for the compressed image and a logical partition of 2 gb for the persistent directories and a logical partition of 500 mb for the swap. I formatted them and rebooted the computer in order to run /usr/sbin/frugal_instal.sh as said in clivesay's pdf file. I booted into dsl 2 using the live cd and when the root prompt came up, I mounted the /dev/hda2 partition and typed in /usr/sbin/frugal_install.sh and answered all the queries and the following prompts about the x server and mouse, but it failed to boot into level 5.
